Golden Skillet

Zero went there today and found hair in my corn pudding. I called and spoke with the manager she was like you want to bring it back and get something else. No I'm going fishing and plus I have to vomit. I'm never going back. I don't know if someone was picking their hair over the corn pudding or if they made it at the hips and brought it in like this.

If you want to bypass the fast food locations the Golden Skillet has a huge menu that is made-to-order homemade cooking. They have so many food options. And the price is reasonable. I must confess that the fried gizzard is the best in the state of North Carolina. They have melt-in-your-mouth super tender gizzards that you will not find anywhere else. Most of the food that is offered here you will find at a sit-down restaurant versus a fast food location. I also was amazed at how golden brown and tasty the pork chops were made. The menu is very detailed with their prices. The workers are all nice, attentive and friendly. The dining area is very fresh and clean with great window lighting. This place may look a little old-fashioned but the quality of the service and the food options are delightful. Don't expect everything to be perfect but for the most part, the majority of the food here is pretty good.

Henderson has the absolute worst restaurants, I always struggle to find any place to eat when I'm here. I figured I would give this place a try since it looks like it's been around for a while, wish I hadn't. I ordered the flounder sandwich and paid extra for the mac and cheese as a side. The sandwich was just average, and the mac and cheese tasted like orange, toxic cheese flavored paste, it was completely unedible. I guess the search continues for a half decent place to eat when I'm passing through this horrible town.

Ridiculous customer service. I called the last Friday evening asking them what time they closed. It was 7:39p when I called. They informed me of 9, even though their website says 10. I say, "Okay so you stop serving food then"? She says yes. Okay that's fine, I head out there from Franklinton. I get there at 8:39p and a female is taking someone's order in front of me. A simple bbq sandwich special (one of the two items I was going to order)I'm at the speaker at 8:41p and without even speaking the female says, "We're closed, that was our last car". Why the heck did you tell me you closed at 9 then?Can't support these type of businesses that are in the customer service industry if they don't know how to provided quality customer service.

The fried mains i usually get (chicken and livers) are very good. The sides I got last time were so so, but I would definitely go again.

Did not like that they bread and deep fry the fish with the skin still on it. The Mac and cheese was good.

Your average restaurant catering toward locals. The food is good and the staff is friendly but the wait times lately have been extremely long. I would suggest the fish sandwich and the porkchop dinner. The chicken is good too but sometimes has a burnt taste. They have daily specials as well. Desserts can be a hit or miss. This is definitely a place you have to try atleast once.

Today, I overheard the most funniest thing. I did enjoy my meal with the best fish sandwich combo. Cooked perfection excellent slaw to tartar sauce ratio. Fries was fresh and delicious. Along with the best customer service. I love the atmosphere I witnessed. But the hilarious moment was when someone changed the name from a chicken gizzard to a chicken butt-hole. Which I will be calling the title from now on. No disrespect in the slightest. I found this interaction between customer and employee very delightful and up my alley. The customer service was hilarious and excellent . Expect me to be back again. Thanks for the food and all the laughs.

Always great food and great service. Very affordable. Locally owned by a great family.

Horrible!my husband went inside at 7:30pm to order him and I a liver dinner. he waited for an hour then he asked the manager he has been waiting for a long time for his food. she has the nerve to say it went out. you would think they would refund you, apologize and get you your food because they gave it someone else. Well she did not. My his and had to ask for his refund and she did say sorry, but proceeded to say she could not give him his food once he got a refund. That is horrible as a compan.
