“TL;DR: Amazing southern country home cooking with friendly staff and owner, would highly recommend-The owner, Anita, was just about the sweetest lady I've ever met, along with her staff who were just about as kind and helpful as her. The food and company remind me of nothing so much as going to my grandmother's house for dinner, and the food is just as good.I went there with my Dad for the solar eclipse, and meant to only stop for some cake and coffee while waiting for the eclipse, but the cake was so amazing we had to try the food too. We ended up both having meatloaf, with mashed potatoes and garlic green beans, and taking home two slices of cake.The meatloaf was amazing, melt in your mouth and full of flavor. The greens beans were simple and all the more delicious for it, and served with rich buttery mash potatoes. The cake was perfect, in basically every way. If you stop here, you must get a slice!My dad had jalapeño cornbread and found himself loving it despite not like jalapeños. I had a warm bread roll, which was very good as it was a warm bread roll. The sweet ice tea was perfect, too. Overall everything was wonderful and I can't recommend it enough. Honestly, even if you have to go out of your way to stop here, it'd be worth it.However, the best part of lunch here was the people. Everyone was so sweet and kind, and really very kind and helpful. I'm on crutches, so during the eclipse, one of the waiters brought out chairs for me and my Dad to sit on to watch the eclipse, which was very appreciated. Everyone took the time to say hello and chat a bit, and was generally great company. 10/10, one of the best experiences I've had at a restaurant.Parking: Lots of parking on a gravel lot.Kid-friendliness: Seems like a great place to take your family with kids, although I didn't see anything kid specific.Wheelchair accessibility: I went in on crutches and had zero issues. It seems like, aside from a gravel parking lot, it is very accessible. No steps, handrails in the bathroom and very roomy.“

“We were driving thru Van Buren looking for a restaurant and saw people sitting outside of the Pointer and decided to stop. My wife chose Japchae and I had Kimchi stew. Both were delicious. We didn’t even know they served Korean food until seeing the menu! We would definitely recommend this restaurant. It was clean and the service was excellent. Lucky find for us.“
