I ordered a Fried Shrimp Po Boy with fries, my wife ordered the Catfish Platter with fried okra and crinkle cut fries. Our server was very pleasant, and attentive, but not bugging us. She was patient with us since it was our first visit. Our food was cooked to order and the plates looked very delicious and filling. I was surprised to see a bowl of gravy coming to the table. I dipped a few fries in the gravy and was blown away by the unexpected flavor. We declined desserts, but their sweet offerings of Fried Apple and Peach Pies, milkshakes, and hand dipped ice cream was tough to pass up. We're coming back for the Chargrilled Burgers. A BIGGG PLUS, When We Arrived At Our Car, Our Server Ran Out As If Something Was Wrong. She handed us our santizizer that we left on the table. I can't tell you how many bottles we've left and no one returned them to us. Impressive, Most Impressive!!!

Absolutely ATROCIOUS!!! We had two Mothers pick this…read morerestaurant to eat at on their special day and it was horrible. We sat almost 2 1/2 hours waiting and in that time frame 2 tables were served their food order...2!! Our waitress was extremely rude, brought me someone's else's drink from another table, she still had the stamp from the bar from last night on her hand so I assume she was dealing with a hangover and obviously didn't want to be there judging by her violent demeanor. The table next to us ordered at 11:45 and was finally served at 2:00 (cold) after complaining about the time. After our long wait we were told our orders hadn't even began to be prepared. You could look into the kitchen and orders were cooked and ready but not being brought out, stacked everywhere you could see. We when questioned we were told they were busy because of Mothers Day but you could clearly see it was not packed but extremely busy, the lack of effort from some of the staff, poor planning, poor preparation, and poor communication from the management made this a bad day for the Mother's and their special day. After 40+ years I don't think I'll be visiting their establishment again after today....

I don't get to Ruston very often, but when I do, Griff's is always on the list…read more Maybe it's the cute...or slightly creepy...little chef logo that gets me every time. Who am I kidding? It's the hot link. It tastes like somebody fired up the grill in their backyard instead of a fast-food kitchen. The burgers hold their own against just about every chain out there, and if you add chili, you'll thank me later. Then there's dessert. Shakes, fried pies, strawberry shortcake...they've got every course covered. Griff's feels like a throwback to a time when fast food had a little more personality and tasted like somebody actually cared. Places like this are getting harder to find. It's right across from Louisiana Tech, so expect a line when school's in session. Don't let it scare you off. It's absolutely worth the wait. Face it, people like Griff's.

If you are seeking truly fresh, top-tier cuisine, Flying Burger is a complete standout. The interior decor is executed to perfection bright, inviting, and impeccably maintained. Upon arrival, I had the delight of chatting directly with the wonderfully friendly cashier, who also happens to be involved with the culinary side of things. That level of personal, attentive hospitality is always something I greatly appreciate. For lunch, I selected the fresh salmon, along with a few of their exceptional side choices and a delightful ice cream to round off the meal. When the salmon arrived at the table, it was magnificent cooked flawlessly, incredibly fresh, and bursting with exquisite flavor. Every single element on the plate was top quality. I cannot recommend this establishment enough for anyone who appreciates genuinely fresh, beautifully prepared food. A flawless five-star experience I will most certainly be returning!
