My husband & I tried this restaurant for the first time for a birthday dinner, hoping for a special…read moreevening. We unfortunately left disappointed. For cocktails, my husband ordered the Mango Sunshine & I ordered the Cucumber Mojito. Both were refreshing & tasted good overall, but did seem quite weak. For dinner, my husband ordered the braised short rib from the Specials menu & I ordered the lamb chops, one of my absolute favorite foods. I ordered the lamb chops medium rare & they were quite overdone, with the last one I tried to eat being well done. The brussels sprouts on the other hand were quite underdone, and were solid to the point that I couldn't even stick my fork through them. I asked for asparagus as a replacement, which ended up being underdone as well. My husband felt his mashed potatoes were too salty & that his broccoli was cooked into mush, but had no issues with the short rib. On a positive note, the staff was very friendly, & the complimentary biscuits were absolutely delicious. Overall, for the high prices they charge at this establishment, it is absolutely not worth it. I do not think we will be returning.

Driving North from Florida, we wanted dinner and preferred not fast food, but good food served efficiently. Well we hit that out of the park by ending up at The Oil Lamp. My friend had the chicken & mashed potatoes (these are the real deal!!). I had the beef tips on gravy over mashed potatoes. We shared sides of braised cabbage that had a fair amount of garlic - I will be thinking about it, yes thinking about cabbage - first time for everything. We also shared creamed corn and this is NOT from a can. The corn was so sweet and there was a crunch to it, which only fresh corn can give. Everything looked delicious. I eyed those desserts, but I'd finished my plate and just no more room. I live like 4 hours away, but I'm hoping to time my return trip to return to this gem. This isn't fancy, it's good food that has been cooked by chefs that know how to cook old school. Last note - generous portions.

Strongly recommend this restaurant.

Definitely thought it was going to have a lot more corn though. And there was also black beans in it. What would make it a 10: more corn, no beans. Santa Fe eggrolls 8/10 "Three crispy egg rolls stuffed with seasoned chicken, sweet corn, melted cheeses, and peppers. Served with our smoky chipotle ranch for dipping." - Good flavor. One of the egg rolls was completely empty. Also nowhere in this description does it say black beans but there was black beans in them- won't order again because of this. What would make it a 10: no beans, and make sure they all have something inside. Grown-Up Dilla 7/10 "A golden grilled flour tortilla stuffed with a blend of jack and cheddar cheeses, fire-roasted jalapeños, roasted corn medley, and tender grilled chicken. Served with your choice of dipping sauce." - got the jalapeños on the side. Lots of cheese. Little chicken. Definitely could have been grilled a little crispier. And again- black beans- gross!! Dipping sauce we chose was the Chipotle ranch- yum, and a none-to-mild spice level! What would make it a 10: more chicken, no beans. Super upset that everything I ordered had black beans in it and NOWHERE in the menu descriptions said that there was black beans in ANYTHING. Had they included it on the menu and I had known each of these dishes had beans- I would have never ordered any of this food and would have picked other menu items without beans in them.

It was very easy to locate in the Kroger shopping center, so parking was very easy. It was lunch time when I walked in...there were a few people seated by not many. The menu was large and easy to ready. The interior was clean but the floor was very sticky. Since it looked so clean, I imagine it was the soap they were using but it was the only thing that I didn't LOVE about this place. I could have called ahead for a large order of chicken livers but it really didn't take that long. (And it was only $7 for a huge portion.) This was one of the few places that didn't make me buy a meal just for chicken livers. The gentleman that took my order was very nice. We had a sort of blind taste test when I got home (I knew where they all came from but the rest of my family did not.) Mrs. Betty's was unanimously voted as the BEST chicken livers!!! My parents will definitely be coming back here, probably at least once a month!

The chicken -- I got dark meat, natch -- was incredibly juicy and the seasoning was done with a light enough touch that you could taste both the seasoning and the meat. My sides were collards and fries, and both were very well-seasoned. The fries were nice and just crispy enough on the outside, and the collards came in a wonderful pot liquor. Service was wonderful, with polite, helpful staff. My only issue was that the cornbread was a bit dry. But they hit it out of the park with the other three, so it's a minor quibble. The whole meal with a drink came out to around fourteen dollars, which was itself a pretty good deal. All told, it was a good meal and I'll definitely be back here in the future.

The bacon was cooked previously, and then heated up, the burger was soggy and cold it was not made to order. And the face of shock whenever the burger came out without the fried onions, sauce, and etc it was supposed to was a shock to the waitress. I had to flag her down to get any of the other ingredients that were supposed to be on the burger. I laughed even harder though once I attempted to bite into a fry and it was still frozen LOL at that point I wanted to just walk out. My daughter only ate the fries that were a little heated on her plate and only took a bite out of her burger before giving up. It was gross, and I'm sorry I won't be back
