I ordered the three fried chicken wings, cabbage and candied yams. Everything was delicious especially the cabbage which was seasoned to perfection. The biggest surprise for me was the hoe cake which took me all the way back to my childhood days visiting my grandmother's kitchen on any given special Sunday dinner, as a stack would be placed on the table to go along with the dinner. Needless to say I enjoyed the hoe cake, you sure don't see those everyday. The service was excellent and friendly, the sweet tea was everything, I can't wait to visit Big Ma's Soul Food again.

I found this place by accident. One of our coworkers just happened to say they had a great meal at…read morethis Southern place but he forgot the name. We were driving by and he pointed it out. I am sure glad he did. The is a full service restaurant with a nice lunch buffet. Fried chicken, sausage and onions, au grauten potatoes, rice and gravy, homemade pork rinds and collared greens. I had the buffet and I thought it was delicious and a great value. My lunch with a sweet tea was $8.50 out the door. I thought the fried chicken was moist and crunchy. They had a sauce with tomatoes, onions and beef that was perfect to put on top of the rice. The potatoes they had going was a cheesy potatoes with pork chop chunks in it. This was the best side dish they had. One of my buddies ordered the chicken salad and I thought this looked fresh and delicious as well. He liked it and said I should try it next time. I will come again and update my review.

The second time I went, I got fried chicken from the buffet. Two breast pieces and one thigh. Both breast pieces were very dry and hard, as if they had been under heat lamps all day, but I had arrived shortly after noon. The thigh piece was good. Cooked just right, juicy, and flavorful. Therefore, I gave an extra star. If you order water to drink, be sure to ask for lemon, because the water tastes pretty bad. The two people that ate with me were as unimpressed as I was.

Where do I start with GDC, the atmosphere, the attentive staff, the decor? Let's start with…read moreservice, food then go into overall experience. Upon entering GDC, we were warmly greeted by the staff on such a chilly night so well received. One thing a restaurant can do is not warmly greet a customer and especially when it's their first time there. This sets the tone of the visit so I appreciated the warm welcome for me and my Mom as first timers. We were sat at a nearby table with a gentlemen who just so happen to be a long time customer who drives pretty far for the food call myself intrigued. Now the bar has been set high. Our waitress asked if we'd visited before and of course we hadn't so she spoke on the menu and the Chef specials. Mom and myself ended up getting the Chef specials. We also ordered the appetizers. Needless to say the food was beyond goodness beyond amazing, it bad to be one of the best dining experiences I've had. I like to consider myself well traveled and coming from NYC I've been to Michelin star restaurants. GDC is definitely up their in the top tier to be in such a small town. Next time I'm in town visiting, GDC is a must visit. Oh yeah, how could I forget. The owner came by our table checked on us a few times and held some small talk. Told us about the photos on the wall that my mom was admiring. The best part is, when my lambchops came out and I was one bone in, he told me to slow down he has something that would blow my mind. He made this freaking amazing maple bacon and pecan sauce (I could have screwed up the ingredients) that I could literally have poured over my entire meal and maybe my own fingers it was so good.

We also ordered a Long Island which was strong but lacked flavor so all you could taste was the liquor which is not what I want from a cocktail. Our entrees took 50 minutes to arrive and during that time the server McKenzie did not bother to check on us. Once our food was finished we watched it get set out under the heat lamp but it was not collected by our server until at least 10 minutes after it was set out. We expressed our concerns to the server and were met with disdain and attitude rather than empathy and an apology, the server quite literally had nothing to say when we expressed our displeasure. The food seems great but I doubt I will ever come back to sit down, I watched tables come after us and get served before we did.

Best kept secret down this stretch of the South might just be Peggy's fried chicken…read more Now, a great many places have the confidence to fry a bird. That is not the same as knowing what they're doing. Plenty can make chicken hot. Fewer can make it memorable. Peggy's managed the rarer thing. This was the kind of fried chicken that makes a man quiet for a minute and reconsider whether he has properly valued his past blessings. They had other meats on the menu, and I do not doubt they were prepared by decent people with honest intentions, but ordering anything besides the fried chicken would have felt like showing up at a revival and asking for directions to a yoga class. And the sides, Lord help me, the sides were no afterthought. If I had not attended the funerals myself, I might have suspected my great grandma, grandma, and momma were back there in the kitchen, keeping an eye on the pots. Forgive me, Mammaw G, Mammaw, and Mom, but Peggy's had the better day with that chicken. I say that with love, respect, and a willingness to dodge a lightning bolt if one has been set aside for me. Fried okra, green beans, sweet potatoes, and mac and cheese, which any Southerner with good sense knows is a vegetable when it needs to be, spread across our plates like a family reunion of the righteous. The only medical advisory I'd offer is this: if your doctor has warned you against coating your insides with salt, you may want to admire from a respectful distance. And the sweet tea was right. Not tea-flavored water with ambition. Sweet tea. Properly made. The sort that lets you know nobody in the building is interested in modern nonsense. Next time I'm rolling down I-20, I may well make the turn toward Wrens again just to see whether Peggy's can do it twice. But judging by the regulars, the handshakes, the easy way the staff knew folks by name, and the fact they made us feel halfway local ourselves, I'd say this was no one-off. This felt less like a lucky meal and more like the kind of place that still believes doing something well is reason enough to keep doing it.
