“Our first visit was today, but it won't be the last. The folks running this amazing place are friendly, and the food is beyond compare. We may have gone overboard ordering, but I'm gonna be so happy with my leftovers!Meatloaf, chicken and dressing, ox tails, candied yams, black eyed peas, cornbread, and dessert. We ordered what we thought was a bit much for 2 people and got enough for 4.Portions are wonderful, and the flavors are out of this world. If you are in the area and don't stop by, you are shorting yourself an outstanding dining experience. If you aren't in the area, make the trip.“

“Cracker Barrel is one of my all time favorite places to eat at. As far as good soul food, regardless of what meal your eating. It's bumped the Golden coral 2-3 spots back in the line. Half of the reason is because their food is so good. The other half is the gift shop. There's enough in the gift shop that if their busy to max that the gift shop can keep you busy & occupied enough, which usually isn't more than 15min, until they got you a table ready and waiting with your name wrote on it. But I'm so glad, along with lots of other people I'm sure, are so glad that cabot is getting a cracker barrel.“

“4*on food b/c onion rings where burned yet sogging with crust falling off. Hushpuppies were oil soaked on the outer third of crust...4* on atmosphere due to sticky tabletops, lack of sugar substitute on the tables and secondary dinning hall's restroom was in need of cleaning. The soap dispenser was off the wall and not in working order. (How do employees wash their hands before returning to work?)Shrimp was good as always. Fried catfish was delicious as we've come to expect.“

“We really enjoyed this seafood restaurant! The catfish, shrimp and the gator poor boy were delicious. We definitely recommend Flying Fish. The decor is so interesting with walls of fish mounted and old tackle boxes as well as pictures of people with their catches. I loved the saying on the back of one of the managers that said, “We catch and release, in real hot grease.” Great service and the lady that was cleaning tables was amazing! She was running around cleaning up more quickly than I’ve ever seen anywhere!“

“This was the first time to go to Bobby's but it won't be the last. It is a throwback to school cafeteria: grab a tray, utensils, drink and then try to decide what you want. It was very busy so I made my decision quickly of fried chickens legs, mashed potatoes/white gravy, fried okra and cornbread. OMG, way more than I could eat but oh so good. It's not a fancy place by no means but we were perfectly happy to sit at a table with plastic tablecloth. They have an assortment of pies but there was no way I could eat pie after my meal. The raspberry lemonade icebox pie seemed to be the favorite of the day. Definitely worth checking this place out!“

“Big Bad Breakfast: A Must-Try Breakfast Spot! Extra - Extra read all about it. I recently discovered a hidden gem for breakfast lovers, and I couldn't wait to tell you all about it. Brace yourself, because Big Bad Breakfast has quickly become my absolute favorite breakfast spot! Let me start by saying that the food at BBB was absolutely phenomenal. From the moment our dishes arrived at our table, it was evident that they were prepared with utmost care. The flavors were incredibly fresh and the dishes were served piping hot. BBB was firing on all cylinders this morning! Their well-seasoned and scrumptious food left my taste buds in awe, and I simply couldn't get enough of it! The staff at BBB deserves a special mention too. They were not only courteous but also extremely friendly. It felt like we were dining with old friends rather than just being served by restaurant staff. Their warm and welcoming demeanor truly enhanced our dining experience. The atmosphere was absolutely fantastic! The moment we stepped into BBB, we were greeted by a cozy and inviting ambiance. The whole place had a vibrant energy, and it was evident that everyone was there to enjoy a delicious breakfast. If you're on the lookout for a great breakfast spot, you're in luck because this is the place to be! Trust me, you won't be disappointed! I can't wait to go back to BBB SOON!!!“

“Had the Nashville hot chicken just by chance. It was tender and juicy. Lol. (Inside joke for those who know ?) anyways. I really enjoyed it and haven't been disappointed yet. I always have to get the peach ? cobbler as well. The large. Lol. Even though it's the price of a meal. Thinking about going again today. And, the lady that has something to do with ownership (If I'm not mistaken) has a beautiful spirit. That goes a long way! Blessings to their business! ??“

“I'm from Lousiana and it is hard to find really good cajun food or anything close to it. One thing we had not found was great poboys until now. The bread is very good and makes it a poboy. I had the fried oyster poboy and it was the most cleanest tasting and well seasoned oyster poboy I've had in years including some places in South Louisiana. The lettuce is finly shredded and makes it easier to eat without making a complete mess. The fries were very good as well. We had a large group of 6 during lunch rush and it took a few minutes to get the orders out but well worth it. Everyone in our group including 4 others from Lousiana all had no complaints and only praise. You order at the counter next to the kitchen and take a seat while it's being prepared. We just moved our office nearby and we will definitely be back again to try some more dishes.Parking: Large shared parking for shopping center but even during lunch rush there are spots opening up. You just may have to walk a few rows to get to the door.“

I would go here with my mom around Christmas and then go look at the lights. Mom's been gone for years now. But the nostalgia is still there. Food is amazing. Great BBQ made by a great family.“
