a basket of fried food
Allen H.

Family run and what a family! You really get a sense that you are a part of their lives and this family is loved by it's community. They serve each person the same as they open their doors or stay latter to offer you a late dinner at closing. Maybe it's the people but the food doesn't hurt either! Traditional and made with plenty of love and care!

All you can eat catfish with fries and hush puppies...delicious

Good for a mom and pop country quick meal. Very crowded inside, too many tables in the space. Nothing special or very clean looking.

Went to Burgess Falls...no parking available. We saw a sign about parking at the "red barn" and…read moreheaded up there...or here. They have a venmo barcode outside, (it is $10 for parking) but I couldn't get it to work, so I went inside. It was packed! But I did manage to pay and get a receipt to put on my dashboard. They told me I could get $5 off my purchase if I showed my receipt. However at the register they said that promotion was over. In the end, they honored it, so I appreciated that. We had the banana pudding and peach cobbler and an ice cream. The ice cream was purchased separately, so we got it immediately. But it took at least 20 minutes for the pudding and cobbler. At one point, I jokingly said to my daughter "are they making it right now"...and they I think they were. The vanilla wafers on the sides and bottom were crunchy, not soggy. It is one of the better banana puddings I've had lately. Definitely recommend it! The cobbler was warm but not what I was looking for. They have a ton of local made products and the bathroom was very clean. Their sign advertised Farm to Table. If we get out that way again I would definitely give their menu a try.

Very cute place! We enjoyed the table games and charm! Food was good... ice cream was not. Very…read morelittle flavor and tastes a little freezer burnt.

We were at the caverns and asked our tour guide for food recommendations. He mentioned he hadn't…read morebeen here, but heard it was good, but pricey. It was our anniversary so we decided to splurge. Appetizer -Fried green tomatoes. Good, but a little lacking in something. The tortilla chicken soup was more like a delicious chip dip than a soup, but we enjoyed it immensely. Seasonal cocktails, expensive but TASTY! Note, wine list is very short, and could use more mid range wines. Tip, pay the $2 to upgrade your brussel sprouts. Easily the best thing I had, well except for dessert. Salmon was amazing, and the corn had such a lovely char flavor. Can't go wrong with mashed potatoes, the plate was perfect. The rib eye was very good. The garlic green beans were also good. But the Brussel sprouts! A must try. As mentioned, it was our anniversary, and they brought us a dessert gratis. Super kind. Before we ordered, our server had mentioned the ice cream sandwich was to die for, so we also ordered that. It...was...to die for. Another must have. We live about 2 hours away, but I'm looking forward to coming back when the seasonal menu changes.

We came for Valentine's Day, which was a set menu, but we were not disappointed…read more We started with the stuffed mushrooms, which were delicious. Only downside was there was no bread to sop up the delicious jus. My husband had the Caesar salad and I had the lobster bisque. He was happy with his salad but I could not eat the bisque as it was way too salty. It also had no identifiable lobster. We both had the surf and turf (steak plus shrimp) and it was perfectly prepared. Mashed potatoes were great. Brussels sprouts were slightly overdone. Dessert was the chocolate dessert and it was also delicious. Our server Leo kept our alcohol at perfect dining levels. We love this restaurant.

I don't think there's a restaurant more welcoming than Local Joe's. From the moment we walked in,…read morewe were greeted warmly and even offered a sample of their pork loin to see if our toddler would like it -- such a thoughtful touch. Throughout the meal, they checked in and made us feel truly taken care of. They even came by with fresh-baked chocolate chip cookies straight off the baking sheet and handed them out for free! The food itself was excellent. They offer great Southern favorites like shrimp & grits and fried chicken, but I went with the fried boneless pork chop. It was perfectly crunchy, full of flavor, and topped with a generous amount of delicious country gravy. Portions are no joke -- I only made it through half before I was stuffed. I did save just enough room to try the cherry pie, and I'm so glad I did. It was fantastic. I can't say enough great things about Local Joe's. The hospitality, the kindness, and the food all make it absolutely worth a visit.

Country Fried steak: delicious and good gravy Cabbage: bland Enjoyed the AYCE catfish: filets were big, hot, and fresh Hush puppies: yummy! They are huge!!! They give you 4 pieces with the AYCE...trying to fill you up Scalloped potatoes: cheesy and creamy Mac and cheese: ok Green beans: canned but seasoned well Crab cakes: had to wait to bring to the table. The inside was still cold. Had it replaced...no comp. Jalapeno cornbread: almost no jalapeno pieces/flavor. Taste kinda like the regular corn bread Coleslaw: too fresh...cabbage was still super crispy Jalapeno fries corn: can see some jalapeno pieces but doesn't taste jalapeno enough Collard greens: ok Overall, a little pricier the the other "Place" down the road. But the food is definitely fresher...had not been sitting all day getting dry.
