SO GOOD! The description "old cafeteria style", while technically true, you never had food this…read moregood in any cafeteria! Driving North from Florida, we wanted dinner and preferred not fast food, but good food served efficiently. Well we hit that out of the park by ending up at The Oil Lamp. My friend had the chicken & mashed potatoes (these are the real deal!!). I had the beef tips on gravy over mashed potatoes. We shared sides of braised cabbage that had a fair amount of garlic - I will be thinking about it, yes thinking about cabbage - first time for everything. We also shared creamed corn and this is NOT from a can. The corn was so sweet and there was a crunch to it, which only fresh corn can give. Everything looked delicious. I eyed those desserts, but I'd finished my plate and just no more room. I live like 4 hours away, but I'm hoping to time my return trip to return to this gem. This isn't fancy, it's good food that has been cooked by chefs that know how to cook old school. Last note - generous portions.

Prior to going, I'm not sure why I thought of this place as a "greasy spoon"...it was more of a…read morecafeteria. Much more updated and cleaner than anticipated. Upon entry, you go to the right to get in line and order. There is a sign with daily specials (you can also check out their Facebook page!). Up first are the trays and silverware and then the salad bar. After that are some entrees and sides they dish out for you. We ordered the rib-eye meal which comes with a side and bread but you can add whatever you want! I think it was $29, which at first seemed a little expensive, but my brother and friends assured me was definitely worth it! We also grabbed a drink and some dessert. All of the employees were very kind and welcoming. We went right at 5 on a Thursday evening so there was plenty of seating. The tables were big and there was room for all 10 of us (that's why we went early!) The food...was amazing! The steak was PERFECT. I asked for it medium and it was medium. So tender and flavorful! My brother wasn't lying when he said it was worth it. I also had the loaded mashed potatoes - excellent, biscuit-yummy, and the chocolate peanut butter pie- OH MY! I will definitely be returning to this establishment. We really enjoyed it.

Why did I have to stop here as now this is going to be a must visit each trip to Over now as the…read moreamount of scrumptious things here is off the charts! So we've passed by here a few times and we just missed it before closing time so on this last adventure we made sure we would make it and let me say I'm stoked we did! They have a grocery side of the store that has a ton of canned and jar goodies along with some super random stuff like that blooming onion kit I bought which I couldn't be more stoked to use sooner than later! Then comes the meat area where you can find a ton of seasonings, sauces, and the meat where they have mostly pork products but also a decent selection of other meat as well! So we bought some sausage patty's, some ground jalapeno cheddar sausage, and some of the snack sticks to enjoy on the ride home and I must say the sticks were super yummy my favorite being the garlic Parmesan one but the real kicker here is that ground sausage that is definitely some of the best sausage I've ever had it's packed with flavor and just hit the spot! We without a doubt will be back here again in to pickup what's totally yummy next time I just know to make more freezer space at home because they have just too much good stuff to pass up!

Wanna talk about amazing!!!! This place is unreal how good there meats are, We were passing through…read morethe area and came upon this gem. The customer service was awesome and everyone here was super friendly. The ambiance is old school, tonight we cooked up some of the bacon and pork shoulder peppered bacon it was amazing. Wish we lived closer.
