    Philly cheesesteak with onion rings!
    Clayton D.

    My wife and I went for dinner one night and heard great things about this place. The service was great! Even though the waitress had many other people to take care of she made sure we had what we needed! The restaurant itself was a typical mom and pop restaurant vibe to it! The food was delicious and I highly recommend the Philly cheesecake with onion rings! Oh and also get you a slice of cake while you're there!!!

    Solid 4! I found Janice's while looking for desserts in the area. This restaurant is a bit off the beaten path but has quite the following of regular customers. We were able to get seated right away and learned they have daily specials. I ordered the potato soup - which was very tasty. Hubby ordered the smothered chicken breast with 2 sides - it was also delicious and a very large meal. But I came here for desserts. I took a tour of the cake table and was practically drooling thinking about which ones I wanted! Then when I went to order I learned they had MORE in the fridge that had to stay cold. YAY! I ended up ordering classic coconut cream pie and a Mounds cake to go. I'd never heard of Mounds cake - its a chocolate layered cake with chocolate, meringue and cocount in the layers and a thin layer of meringue on top. OMG ORDER THIS, it was soooooo good! Hubby got chocolate cream pie which he really enjoyed and a slice or red velvet cake which he said was just okay. This place was pretty busy the entire time we were there and the servers did well keeping up with it all. They help each other out and assist at all tables rather than having designated tables.

    Forgot to take a photo before eating it all, but this is SW Fries. Comes with queso dip, shredded cheese, bacon, and jalapeno peppers.

    100% hands down the best! Very friendly and welcoming. My service was great! Food was great, and it was brought out in a timely manner. Tia is great at running this restaurant!!

    Super cool diner without the frills of a restaurant. You can just walk in and find a clean, empty table and someone will come get your order. Food is classic Southern fare with a lot of cakes to choose from for dessert. They have sirloin steak, chicken and dumplings, baked catfish, baked ham among others. The food is delicious and the portions are generous. Prices are cheap. Service was quick despite the rush. Staff was friendly and helpful. It's a cash-only restaurant

    After some of the reviews, I was hesitant to come here, but Missy raved about the place - especially since we had her little dig, Honey. That's why we sat outside on the patio. It was a little cool, but we dressed warmly. Missy ordered the mandarin orange cake first, since it usually sells out quickly. Then she ordered the chicken and dumplings - special for the day and her favorite. Her sides were mashed potatoes & pinto beans. I had the hamburger, medium, and their creamy cole slaw. Husband had popcorn shrimp, with corn and fried onion rings. The service was excellent. Everything came out quickly: hot if it should have been hot and cold if it should have been cold. All was excellent and reasonably priced. We had snacked on the cake before our food came, and we three finished it for dessert. We now know why this place is one of Missy's favorites, and if we lived here, it would be our favorite, too!

    Average food, bad service, dirty dining room and unacceptable bathroom. Good place if your hungry I guess. Not many choices in the area.

    The food is wonderful. Plentiful, well seasoned and fresh. The cakes are to die for. I'm taking one star off because they only take cash.

    Very good breakfast. Biscuits and eggs, pancakes, grits, and hash browns were all good and…read morereasonably priced.

    My husband & I stopped here on our way back home. While I understand southern food is meant to be…read morebuttery & comforting, this establishment was something else. I rarely leave reviews & I'm a very easy going person when it comes to food... I'm a chef back at home but also have a big guilty pressure for food that's on the greasier/buttery side. When placing a pick-up order, I was told it'd be ready in 10 minutes. After 15 minutes, I go in check, food not ready. That's fine. 20 minutes, food not ready. There were a total of 10 people at the restaurant who were already served. My order was as simple as it could get. Three biscuits, scrambled eggs and hashbrowns. 35 minutes later, food is finally ready & our order is incorrect. We don't eat pork & all our sandwiches had bacon in them. Utensils were thrown into containers so when opening, they were filled with grease. These by far have been the worst biscuits I've had. So soggy that when picked up they crumbled to pieces. Our hashbrowns were soooo greasy that we had to dab them with several napkins & drain the grease out of the container. I wish they could've at least given us a reason as to why our food was 25 minutes later than what we were told (total of 35 min wait). Despite all, easy going person, I would've waited. I've been a waitress, busgirl, maintenance and eventually now a cook. I know the food industry can be overwhelming but there really was no excuse for the lateness, amount of grease and crumbly "biscuits" they gave us. I cannot say don't come to this place, but if you do be sure to come at your own risk. Personally, I will not be back. My stomach feels like it's consumed three sticks of butter and unfortunately none of it used for biscuits.
