    Strawberry Fried Pie
    Janice M.

    I was so disappointed the past couple times I've went to Jack's to get the strawberry cream cheese, they have been bad. First time someone had placed the apple pies in the boxes marked strawberry. This time they was dried out. Come on Jack's y'all can do better than this

    Cheesy Bacon Pub Fries...not half as good as they look.  Bland.  Expensive ($3.99 & tax).

    Meh. That's almost all I have to say about this place for lunch. Short staffed, early transition from breakfast to lunch, long lines of people standing around holding their receipt like a lotto ticket, limited menu for food shortages, and so-so food when you do get it. I'll pass on this again.

    This Jack's is located across from the Madison City Hall/Police Station. It is clean and the service was fast. The quality of the food is consistent across all Jack's which indicates good management.

    Kinda scare on the toppings, but overall it's delicious! Big Bacon no tomato.

    Clean restaurant but a very long wait for my burger. The fries had NO seasoning. Not one of my favorite visits to Jacks.

    “Their chicken tenders when they are freshly made are really good, and dipped in the ranch dressing, they're even better.”

    Hubs met his friend for lunch here last Friday. He enjoyed his chicken sandwich. He brought me an…read moreorder of shrimp and grits to go. The dish was packaged well, and travelled well. There were ample shrimps in the dish and the shrimps were seasoned well and tasty! Both the shrimps and the grits were exceptional quality. The grits were very creamy and again, seasoned well! The lemon was grilled which is a lovely touch and the scallions/sliced onions offered a touch of freshness and flavor. There was an abundance of grease in the dish which was the only evidence of any chorizo sausage. In accustomed to having andouille sausage in shrimp and grits and usually they are medallions, sliced like coins. Sometimes the sausage is diced and it's always seared. The sausage was absent. Day one I ate the shrimp and day two I cooked some andouille sausage we had, removed the grease from my leftovers, and had the grits with our andouille medallions. The grits were cheesy and creamy and really good and they did taste great with the addition of our sausage. I'm sure Tupelo Honey would have corrected the missing sausage had I been present at lunch. I was pleased with the quality of the ingredients, just disappointed the sausage was missing.

Service was a bit slow getting started and remained somewhat slow throughout our visit. For starters, we ordered the fried green tomatoes and fried pickles. The fried green tomatoes were a bit firm and difficult to cut, but the fried pickles were enjoyable. For our entrees, we ordered the Chicken & Waffles, Peppercorn Meatloaf, and Sweet & Spicy Fried Chicken. We also ordered a side of sweet potato pancakes. The Peppercorn Meatloaf had quite a bit of spice, even for a spicy food lover like me! The chicken tenders served with the waffles had some spice to them as well. They tasted fine to me, but they were a little too spicy for my friend who ordered them. The Sweet & Spicy Fried Chicken was definitely our fave, 10/10. The crispy Brussels sprouts were a bit dry and underwhelming. I think they would have been much better with some type of glaze or sauce. We waited quite a while for our bill at the end of the meal. The slow service was the main drawback and reason for my rating. Our server was pleasant, but he seemed a little overwhelmed.

Our food was great as well. Zero complaints on what we ate that day. Orange juice was also very good.

Most of the wait staff was wearing very tattered clothing and the worst offender was the bus boy. Although he was working his tail off, he looked like he hadn't showed in several days and hadn't washed his clothes in a week. His bus tub was disgusting. As he was cleaning the table beside us, he put the tub in the table top and as I turned my head to look over I lost my appetite seeing the condition of the tub. To know that he put it on top of the table made me even more disgusted. Not only was he bussing tables but he was also taking plates of food to tables. I, personally, would not have accepted food from him because it's very unlikely he washed his hands after cleaning tables off. Our waiter was nice but he looked very sloppy. I realize I'm not at a white table cloth restaurant but at least make sure the serve staff looks presentable. We won't be back.

The star of the meal was the fried green tomatoes. They were thick, juicy, perfectly fried, and honestly didn't need any dipping sauce or condiment at all. They're some of the best I've had. Minnie and I both ordered the whole catfish with mashed potatoes and fried green tomatoes. We absolutely demolished our plates. The catfish was delicious, and the mashed potatoes tasted genuinely homemade. The brown gravy was rich and flavorful and paired perfectly with them. My mom ordered the 4-vegetable plate with fried green tomatoes, mashed potatoes, coleslaw, and fried okra. She loved everything on her plate. The staff was incredibly friendly, and the restaurant was busy the entire time we were there. There was a steady stream of both dine-in customers and takeout orders, which tells you a lot about the place's reputation. My only complaint is the wait time. Food takes a while to come out, especially if you're ordering fried items, but they do warn you ahead of time. The quality makes it clear they're cooking to order, so if you decide to visit, just be prepared to be patient. If someone asked me where to take an out-of-town guest for authentic Southern cooking, G's Country Kitchen would be at the top of my list. The food is homemade, comforting, and exactly what people imagine when they think of classic Southern cuisine. Overall, the food was fantastic, the service was welcoming, and it's easy to see why G's Country Kitchen is a go-to spot for homestyle country cooking. We'll definitely be back.

This was Southern hospitality at its finest, wrapped in incredible food and genuine warmth from the moment our Forest Service and Alabama A&M team walked through the door. The owner and staff were extremely kind, welcoming, and hospitable to our group, treating us less like customers and more like honored guests. The owner personally sat with our team, walking us through the menu item by item, sharing stories, and offering recommendations on his favorite dishes. That personal touch set the tone for the whole lunch and made the meal feel both special and deeply personal. The food itself was soul-satisfying in every way. The fried chicken was perfectly seasoned with a crispy exterior and juicy interior, the kind of dish that makes you pause after the first bite. The catfish was especially delicious as well, tender, flavorful, and cooked just right, embodying everything you hope for in classic country cooking. And the banana pudding was a standout, instantly transporting me to memories of dining in Savannah, with that rich, comforting, homemade taste you feel in your soul. From start to finish, everything about our visit to G's Country Kitchen was outstanding...the hospitality, the conversation, the food, and the feeling of being truly cared for. Many thanks to the owner and the entire staff for a great experience and a lunch that our Forest Service and Alabama A&M team will not soon forget.

I have never had any issues with the staff because they honestly show you how the southern charm is and you can tell that it comes naturally for them as well. I love the way the restaurant seating area is, very calm, clean, and simple...I know a,lot of people nowadays prefer the whole flashy, more expensive decor and feel, simply because somehow the world has changed into the idea and lifestyle of "enough is NEVER enough"l so if you love the old ways as much as I do then you have to go by Mia's Cafe, I promise you won't regret it. I've built a reputation as an extremely honest reviewer of anything and everything I have ever tried, from products to places and anything else in between. So I make a point to always say this at the end of every review I make to let everyone know that as a reviewer (some call me an influencer but ‍) I give exactly my truth about it and it's impossible to get me to do anything else. So you now know that everything I said above is absolutely my truth. Have a great day/night whichever it is when you are reading this review
