    Pinacolada mojito!
    Sharina J.

    The beer is still ice cold. They got rid of the all you can eat rib tips on Thursday so that's a bummer. We usually always sit in the bar for the quiet area. Also there's bar specials that we like to get for happy hour. The drinks are strong. The food is warm.

    BBQ was definitely on my mind before visiting Flint. After exploring the murals decided to check this place out and it was for sure a great choice. Ordered 2 meat Combo(Chopped Pork & Turkey smothered in gravy) that came with Corn bread and Side Mac & cheese( $10). My friend got chicken and Rib tip meat along with Bbq beans. Burnt Rib Meat and Chicken was Amazing. Pros: ------- Good Food Friendly Staff Quick Service Spacious Funky Interior Ample parking space Clean restrooms Wifi Lot of Food options close by Cons: -------- None to me

    Yummy

    Great food! The beef brisket was very tender. My server did an above average job. I wish they had the Tuesday feast special still.

    If you're craving real, old-school comfort food, Grandma's Recipes absolutely delivers…read more We both ordered the fried chicken, which takes about 25-30 minutes because it's made fresh and it shows. The batter is thin, crispy, and not overly heavy, and the flavor feels like something straight out of a home kitchen. This isn't fast-food fried chicken... this is Sunday dinner at grandma's. The meal itself is a lot of food for around $17: four pieces of chicken, real mashed potatoes with homemade gravy, a vegetable, a potato, plus a salad and a cup of homemade chicken noodle soup with those old-school egg noodles. Everything tasted fresh and well-seasoned, not processed or rushed. We also tried the fried mushrooms everyone talks about, and they lived up to the hype. They use large portobello mushrooms, which makes a huge difference. No watery, soggy bite like you get at a lot of places, just a clean, meaty texture with a crispy coating. The atmosphere is calm and cozy. Lighting is dim enough to feel relaxed, and with only about 20 tables, it's not loud or chaotic. No kids running wild or constant traffic in and out, just a laid-back, "take your time" kind of vibe. The space has a log cabin feel with exposed wood, vintage décor, and black-and-white photos. The tables and chairs aren't fancy, but they're clean and fit the nostalgic charm. Service was great during our visit. Our waitress was attentive, checked on us regularly, took our order quickly, and everything came out hot. I've seen mixed reviews about inconsistent service, but our experience (first visit) was very positive. There's also plenty of parking, which is always a win. Between the generous portions, fair pricing, and genuinely homemade feel, this is the kind of place you come back to. They also offer daily specials and make many of their own desserts. I'll definitely be back to try the coconut cream pie. Overall: Comfort food done right, with a cozy, no-frills atmosphere and excellent value.

    Food was great atmosphere is homey like grandma's house. Service was excellent on a busy Sunday…read moremorning.
