Our food came out hot and excellent in taste. My friend stated his burger was real good and the patty was homemade and the trimmings were fresh. My pork chops were seasoned and fried to perfection. The sides are true southern style. They have soft music in the background i barely noticed. The restaurant was clean and open. We will return to try another meal.

Food was great and fresh. I got the pork chops with mash potatoes and gravy and fried okra. The…read moreonly problem that arose for me was I was sat down immediately when I arrived. The server took my drink order but never returned back. An older gentleman asked if i have been waited on after I waited 35 mins. I told him no and he went and got me my drink. Then another 20ish mins passed and another employee asked if had my order taken. I also explained no and she went to the back and grab another employee. The employee was in the back washing dishes. Now the new server/ dishwasher lady took my order for me. I will try Hattie's again due to the food being great. It's not a quick lunch spot. Come when your not in a rush and enjoy the great food.

Southern food includes Meat-and-Three restaurants, barbeque, fried ANYthing, fresh caught fish, and…read morehunted game. Hominy, hush puppies, cornbread, grits, Alabama white sauce on any meat, especially smoked chicken, are all popular in Alabama. BBQ is practically a religion in the South! As former certified Kansas City Barbeque Society (KCBS) certified judges, my husband and I completed the training and paid the fees to be certified. The "KCBS way" is different from a lot of people's preferences in that, for example, a BBQ rib should actually have some "pull" to it, meaning, when you bite into it, your mouth should leave a mark in the rib. This means "fall off the bones" ribs are not KDBS quality, despite how many love that rib consistency. The KCBS judges slots fill up so quickly and required us to travel at our own cost and we did not judge any KCBS events. Back to Southern food. Deep fried double Oreos are one of the many fried foods here in Huntsville, and Melt restaurant features them on their menu. Meat-and-Three restaurants feature a meat (usually fried pork chop, meatloaf, BBQ, fried catfish, country fried steak/chicken) and three sides (fried okra, creamed corn, mashed potatoes and gravy, baked potato, potato salad, cole slaw, French fries) and bread options such as cornbread, rolls, hush puppies. While Southern Cooking is absolutely delicious, I have to limit it because lets face it, it is high in calories and cholesterol. When I do indulge, it's shrimp and grits, pimento cheese, fried green tomatoes, and fried whole okra.

We love the service and of course the food is so awesome. The friendly weight staff comes around throughout your entire dining experience and provides so many awesome sides in addition to your dinner selections. The staff comes around and brings fried okra, smothered potatoes, and various other delicious southern side dishes. The food is so delicious and definitely remind you of HOME and the variety of menu items are perfect and so so so yummy. The 32 ounce mugs with your drink of choice is hilariously, huge and so generous... we also learned on this trip that you could purchase one of those jugs to go. The ambience is cool. It kinda reminds you of an old country restaurant with wooden benches and historical items, pictures, and memorabilia all throughout the entire restaurant. The biggest part and honestly a fun part for families is this is also the place that's coined "Throw em rolls" where they throw huge hat and fresh dinner rolls to your table so at any time you can see flying rolls throughout the dining room rooms. It's so much fun. I would definitely add this to your list if you are in the area to check out. The food, the service is really great and just a very simple, casual dining experience.

Lambert's is definitely an experience! I'll admit, when I first heard they literally throw the…read morerolls across the restaurant, I thought it sounded a little strange, but once you're there, it's actually really fun. The rolls come out fresh and hot, and they're really good! They also come around throughout the meal with different "pass-arounds" that they serve right at your table. I tried the fried okra and really enjoyed it. There were several other options being passed around as well, so you definitely won't leave hungry. For my meal, I had the chicken wings and was very pleased. Other family members tried the country-fried steak and shrimp, and everyone seemed happy with their food. The portions are generous, and even the drink cups are GINORMOUS! Service was good and timely, especially considering how busy and lively the restaurant was. It's very family and kid friendly, and you can tell Lambert's has been around for a long time and has become an experience in itself. My biggest recommendation: make a reservation, especially if you're coming with a large group. Without one, you could easily be looking at a 45-minute wait or longer. Overall, I'm glad I finally had the opportunity to experience Lambert's. Good food, good service, a fun atmosphere, and catching a hot roll flying across the restaurant makes for a pretty memorable meal! Definitely worth experiencing at least once.

For June, they are offering night service on Friday's, still 5 courses and the food is amazing. It's called the Southern Revival menu. The spare ribs are like nothing you have ever had before. They said they were cooked confit style for 5 or 6 hours, after a 24 hour cure, then rested for one day and finished with Ann amazing glaze (so 3 days to make these ribs). The watermelon salad is out of this world, then the short ribs were not over mashed potatoes- no ma'am, think more like Joel Rubechon Pomme puree- velvety smooth potatoes and crispy onion straws on top. The Banoffee Pudding is banana pudding taking up about 10 notches. You definitely want to check this out and you will want to call by Thursday morning to make a reservation.
