Down an unassuming, urban road, you'll find a fairly dated, but neatly kept restaurant in what…read morelooks like a renovated old fast food joint. And the food was fast, but definitely not fast food. Once inside, the pride the owner takes in her business is as evident as the friendly service that makes you feel like grandma must be the one cooking in the kitchen. This restaurant is truly a diamond in the rough. We chose it based on the current Yelp review of a 4.9, and after our experience I'm truly questioning the sanity of whoever gave her the line score below a 5. Dated building aside, the rest of the ambiance was neat, clean, and at the time of our visit, quiet. However, we arrived very near closing time on a Wednesday, so I imagine it's much more lively at peak hours. My husband and I both ordered the whiting fish plate with turnips and Mac N cheese. Two giant fillets of piping hot fish came our way in no time, perfectly seasoned with the best crunch imaginable, yet not overly greasy. The turnips, likewise, deliciously seasoned along with Mac N cheese of the variety you would expect if grandma was, indeed, in the kitchen. So, if you're ever in Rocky Mount, seeking the best fare the town has to offer, stop by Mama Sarah's. It's worth your while.

The food was very fresh and tasty. Great service from the staff as always and friendly customer service. The table we sat at was dirty and needed to be wiped off so we asked a crew member and she did so quickly with pleasure. The table could use a little TLC as you can see in my pic the edging was coming off which made eating on that side a little uncomfortable. All in all it was a great time and I suggest chic fil a to anyone in this area who hasn't given it a shot.

I first had Bojangles in the Fredericksburg area and thought it was excellent. I went to ones in Prince George's County, MD as well as Union Station DC, areas closest to where I lived. All the MD & DC closed in late 2023. I remember liking the New Carrollton, MD location often when I had work travel pre-Covid. I went one time in early 2023 on work travel over there, and I was underwhelmed with that location. Although the food was great, they were as slow as molasses and was kind of dirty in there; not the experiences I had in the past. Although they had their issues, I was disappointed when I saw they had closed. So, when in Rome, I wanted to make to Bojangles on SML trip. Fast food is limited in the area. It's Bojangles & Wendy's, which is weak, and I live within 5 miles of a Wendy's, so I wanted to get something I can't get at home. I was very impressed with how friendly, fast, & tasty the food was on both visits here. I also was very impressed how clean it was in this location unlike the former MD locations. They also had American flags up for week of 4th of July, which was nice. This location was better than any of the MD locations I went to, DC, Fredericksburg, & one in North Carolina. Both times I got the chicken tender platter, which is tenders, fries (well seasoned), & biscuit; all delicious with Bo Sauce along with sweet tea, a nice Southern delicacy freshly brewed here. Next time at SML, I'll try to make it back to Bojangles.

Old school drive up hotdog and hamburger joint…read more I was in the area for business and decided to drop in after seeing the reviews. You pull up and it's curbside service. They literally come up to your car, take your order, and bring your food back. I loved the old school feel. It took no time for my food to arrive-about 7 minutes. I got a burger, onion rings, and a hotdog all the way. The onion rings were fresh, hot, and had the perfect amount of salt. The burger was well seasoned, had that crisp, grilled taste. The hotdog was good as well-chili was perfect. It was such a nostalgic feel and definitely a must visit for the experience.

We went in and Chloe sat us Outside like we asked. we waited about 10 minutes and I walked back in and their was a waitress standing at the hostess stand with Chloe. I asked if they had a booster seat and without looking up she said nope we have high chairs. I politely said we have been out there for 10 minutes and no one has stopped by. we had mentioned to Chloe we were headed next door but had an hour and a half to eat. The waitress didn't even look up and rudely said I will get out there when I can. There were other patrons standing there. I went back outside and sweet Chloe came out there to save the day. She took care of us professionally went over and above to serve us freshen our drinks and even talked to my three year old grand daughter and Becasue she didn't like the adult ice cream brought her a little small cup like she was use to. I know places get slammed and maybe short staff but a kind word or I am sorry it's only me waiting today takes a minute. Kindness goes a long way. I am not from Rocky Mt but my son and family live there and had bad service before and we decided before Chloe took over we would not come back. Chloe changed our minds. She is a treasure at the restaurant and friendly and polite and maybe needs to teach the waitress just communication skills and kindness. the restaurant gets a 4 bit Chloe gets a 5 star.
