    Country cooking, but nothing special. Definitely a good local spot. Basic simple breakfast dishes…read more Nothing fancy, but wasn't disappointed. Pancakes were good. Biscuits were definitely not homemade. Prices were fair and portions were generous. Service was fast, even though they were packed! Loved the old country kitchen feel!

    I've come to this restaurant since I was a little girl. My dad even smoked here. That's how long…read moreI've been a customer. Today after breakfast, I decided to treat my son to one of their $20 squishy sadly after we got in the car we realize it had Holes and hair it was used and it was popped. I called them to try to make it right they told me to come exchange it then another- person called me back and told me they couldn't honor that so I came back in the store and when I walked in, I saw the owner and the same girl who called me run to the back of kitchen and hide from the conversation when I went to exchange the squishy, a man told me I could do that, and then another woman came out and told me I couldn't while the owner hid in the back of the kitchen the entire time. Miss Shirley. I'm very heartbroken about this Miss Shirley you should be better. I sat there and cried with you when your husband died and my dad died in the same month. I've come here since I was a child and you just ruined this all over a $20 squishy you preach about the Lord but you did the exact opposite you ran away when a child was in need and you ruined your business over this. I will make sure everybody in here knows about this. I am devasted by the actions of country skillet. Your husband and my dad are in heaven ASHAMED of the actions by country skillet today. What used to be known as a place of a good memory is now tarnish over a damn squishy.

    So I started off looking for a nice little happy hour. This was the only place I found anywhere…read moreclose to me that mentioned one. It's 3-6 pm, half off Speciality drinks and $10 appetizers. Plus $5 wells. I ordered a Margarita and two apps to be quick. The apps don't look huge, but then you start eating, and they last, and last, and last! If you are uncertain and are gonna pick an appetizer based on a recommendation , if they tell you they took it to a competition and it killed, order that one. Turnip Green Bites were outstandingly exceptional! Don't let turnip greens turn you off! Just tell your Mom you ate your vegetables and move on! These will change your life! I followed them up with the Duck Wontons, and while good, it is just hard to follow and act like The King, Turnip Green. Service was quick and super friendly. I didn't get to explore upstairs because it was closed on a Tuesday. But the rest of the restaurant is nicely contemporary and well decorated. The lighting works. Not too bright, not too dark. And you can hear to talk to your group. No screaming over a too-loud soundtrack. Definitely give this place a try, I'm glad I did! The only reason I didn't give 5 stars is the plating. Needs some work.

    I normally love Georgia Blue! I decided to order takeout on Friday and order the dynamite shrimp…read morebowl. I was underwhelmed with the portion size. It was tiny! Normally Georgia Blue provides nice portions. It was a healthy dish. I also ordered the spinach dip on the side with a Kristine bread and it was tasty per usual. I just wish they would get the portions right.

    DON'T do it... DON'T eat here. Shall I repeat myself? No, once is enough. 2 of went here for lunch…read morelast week only because The Neighboorhood Grill was closed for 'equipment malfunction'?? So we drove into old towne, and found this place. Went it, buffet was cheap, $4.99 I think. People, there's a reason why. Where shall I start - Salad portion, 1 lettuce, in 2 different bowls, but, same lettuce, minimal items to put on the salad - celery was brown in one bowl, green in another, I went for the green version. Passed on the cucumbers, cut in quarters, they were multi color as they had turned mushy near the rind and in toward the center. Meats, well, & this is true, I'm not kidding, I starred at them, what I think were the meats, but had to ask the counter guy what were the meats as I couldn't tell by looking at them. ps, there were maybe 4 other people in here at lunch. He said pork chops, OK, I could see those in the gravy, meat loaf, well, I saw something with red sauce on it, but, pushing back the red sauce, that was not ground beef under it, maybe cabbage? Whatever, it was not meatloaf. And finally, BBQ.... well, I guess that was the shredded stuff with so much sauce on it, I thought it was sloppy joes. So, I tried that, but could only eat 1 bite. Although he did not say ham was one of the meat items, I swear there was a shredded ham dish (in the veggie section). It was the only 'meat' item I could eat more than 1 bite of, but my associate took 1 bite of it and could not eat any more. Veggies, there were several, I could see they were lima beans, and brown beans, for example, but could taste no difference in either. Way... way.... way.... way.... too many items on the buffet. Folks, go for Quality, not Quantity. No clue how this place stays in business. On the way back to the office, we asked ourselves: What days were the food we just ate actually cooked???

    Great food, reasonable price, and a gritty, laid back atmosphere. Food is some of the best I've…read morehad at a buffet and at 5.99, all you can eat, it's a great deal. Everything is made from scatch, the ranch dressing is out of this world. (Owner gave me the recipe.) This is a place I would drive out of my way for. Don't forget to try the cornbread muffins!

    The place is nice. The service is welcoming, but the food would be a choice if you didn't feel…read morelike cooking. I had the three piece dark chicken with the sweet potatoes casserole and mash potatoes with gravy. The mashed potatoes had quite a few lumps and everything kind of gave a powdery taste (gravy, casserole, and mashed potatoes). When I say powdery... I'm saying that it just wasn't giving "homemade". It's not intolerable but it's not what you look for when you go to a soulfood restaurant. I also wasn't a fan of the wait. We have some made to order items so it was understood about the 20 minute wait, but we didn't get our food until almost an hour after paying. The extra time waiting seemed to be due to fried green tomatoes not being made in tandem with the fried chicken. As a result, everything was luke warm by the time we got the food. It's truly sad because the flavor is definitely there. The texture, the powdery residual taste and the wait time leaves me at this place being a one time experience at the least and a, "if I had to" at the most.

    The staff was very kind and welcoming. The food was so much better that I expected and it resolved…read moremy rather bad day. I ordered the catfish with a side of mac and cheese and green beans. The catfish is made to order, was perfectly crispy and well seasoned. Definitely top 3 catfish meals for me in the area. The mac and cheese was some of the best I have had. It was creamy and savory, it wasn't too fatty and had a firm texture. It was definitely the highlight of the meal. The green beans had a bit of a mushy texture but I really enjoyed regular green beans. The meal comes with a side or cornbread which was filling , fluffy and sweet. Fantastic soul food for me. The banana pudding was also delicious. You can also actually taste banana not just sugar. The people working there were honestly so kind and chill. They knew what to recommend and added to the dining experience. My only criticisms come with how some of the food is prepared for example the green been texture being on the mushy side is likely due to it being presented similarly to a buffet. I was also unable to have a whisky due to the bar being closed however it was 2pm on a weekday. Overall great experience

The mac and cheese was good. I really liked the yams. I placed the order online and it was ready in 25 minutes. This location is in a strip mall and not easy to see from the main road. Plenty of parking. They have updated their prices.

    I visited here on our lunch break yesterday around 1:00pm. We paid $41 for 3 soul food lunch plates…read moreand the food was horrible. Yes, it was so bad I got food poisoning. I order the fried catfish which had no flavor or taste at all , the cabbage was just okay, and the Mac and Cheese was not good either. The other two people ordered the meatloaf because they had been before and said it was pretty good but they was disappointed as well. The meatloaf was cold, but they did say they enjoyed the candies yams, but they still said they would never come back because the food is no longer good or freshly prepared here. But back to my food poisoning situation, around 3:30pm I had stomach cramps so I knew something was wrong ( unfortunately I was the only one had the fish and tartar sauce so it had to be one or the other) and I didn't have anything else to eat that day . But later that afternoon I started vomiting and kept going to the bathroom and here it is the next day and I'm still having stomach pains. I should have know when I entered that know one was inside and they said this place used to be packed for lunch. But unfortunately I will never return here or recommend anyone else to go here for soul food. It wouldn't surprise me if others got sick as well because it's definitely old food being served or it's not being properly store . I hate cafeteria food but next time I'm going to Piccadilly I stead ...
