Absolutely one of the best country, home-cooking restaurants. You will find no better turnip greens. Service is fast also.

If you like down home southern food and in a hurry come here. Food reminds me of momma's cooking. Service is fast and they offer up to several choices of food every day the cook has prepared. Carryout is quick also.

Loveliest diner with good comfort food at a good price. Nicest folks work her too. Recommended by the locals hands down the right choice.

Fantastic food! Super friendly staff!! Perfect service and attention to all your needs!! We had trouble finding the place because we were from out of town, and a lady that worked there came outside and waved so we could find it. Who does that? This place does! We got there close to closing, so they were out of some food, but that's not a negative review. The food we did get was out of this world. If you want a good meat and 3, this is the place to be!! Two thumbs up and 5 stars from this customer. It's a long way from home, but we will be going back!!

An easy 4-star rating. Good home cooking, decent portions, fast service, and almost dirt cheap. Modest environment, but maybe they get points for the charm (or is quaint the word?). Well worth the time and expense.Not to mention you can see FAME studios down the street. Bonus!

Delicious food (mostly meat and three with assortment of vegetables daily, all homemade with fantastic desserts), reasonable prices, large portions, personable friendly service, clean restaurant, and owned by great local couple! Nothing fancy, but just a good, down home atmosphere in a restaurant owned by people who purpose to do things the right way!

Service is terrible, tried calling an order in and was placed on hold. I was only a few miles away so I just drove there, all while still on hold. Saw the parking lot and was only 3 cars there. Went in, while still on hold, placed an order, received the order and left. All the while I am still on hold, 3 employees walking around texting and never once did anyone come back to the phone.

Always the best meat and three in North Alabama and at the lowest price. I order the fried chicken breast. It is very tender and juicy with the best tasting crispy batter. There is always another couple of meats to choose from and a large selection of vegetables. The vegetables are good too, just good southern cooking. Tea is good and service is fast.
