Chicken, homemade southern style potato salad, green beans and corn bread hoe cakes.

I wanted to get some fried okra and believe it or not, not easy to get in Ga. As I walked in, my thoughts were all over the place. This took me to a time in my life that was joyful. Lunch ladies recommending specials and inform us what is good! (All of it)! We grabbed a tray and proceeded through the choices of sides. They had a board to select. We went for the recommendation. The inside was all glitz and glamour but it was homey and welcoming. The vibe was soulful, which was what I needed and craved. IYKYK Go get yourself some delicious food. 100 out of 10!!

Front: Grilled chicken, sweet potato, cabbage, roll Back: pork chop, mashed potatoes with gravy, broccoli & cheese casserole, cornbread

Amazing food, attentive and kind service, cute diner atmosphere, will be coming back again! Definitely one of the best spots around!

My crew for the weekend.

Ms. Stella's was the best place for down home country cooking. The people were very friendly and the food was awesome and amazing. We were in Milledgeville GA for 3 days and we ate there all 3 days. We didn't want anything else. Everything they served was great and the price was excellent. I will drive 5 hours to eat there, spend the night and eat again before getting back on the road. I love, love, love, Ms. Stella's.

This is the type of hole in the wall mom and pop place I was looking to find in Milledgeville. I happened at this place at the recommendation of a local and could not be happier I found this place. The place is at the corner and is a converted house. Walk in the doors and to your right is a modest dining room and to the left is where you order/pick up your food. Tons of locals hit this spot and everyone seemed to know everyone else. A plate comes with your choice of protein (I got the grilled chicken!) along with two sides of your choice. All the southern classics! All for ~ $6. They also serve some sandwiches, tea+lemonade, drinks, and desserts. Food was a great value for the price and the service came with a side of southern hospitality.

The restaurant is on the corner. Baked chicken. Beans and collards. Key lime pound cake.

The Hampton inn clerk told about this soul food place. I had the baked chicken with collared greens and beans. Slow cooked soft chicken was perfect for dinner. Hints and strands of pork in the collards. The key lime pound cake is chilled and delicious. Staff is friendly and dinner under $8.

Honestly, this seafood boil exceeded expectations. The flavors are perfectly balanced, nothing…read moretastes overdone or missing. The potatoes are soft and flavorful, and the shrimp are cooked to perfection.

Well, since I didn't feel like going out last night for dinner, I used KNG Delivery, and ordered…read morethe 12 piece Hot Wings, and the Cajun Shrimp Pasta, with small side salad and a dinner roll. Salad, with Blue Cheese Dressing: Though it was weird looking (croutons in on corner, shredded cheese in a straight line, and diced tomatoes in the other corner), the greens were fresh and crisp. And, the cheese and tomato tasted fresh, too. The Blue Cheese Dressing was fantastic! I haven't tasted such good dressing in years. 5 Stars Hot Wings: Whoa! I don't think I've ever seen such small drumettes. And, many of the wings were in a near L shape, vs being tucked together. While tasty, unfortunately, I found the drumettes to be quite dry, and a bit tough. As was the wing tips. But, the wing bases were what I'm use to. 3 Stars Cajun Shrimp Pasta: Oh, my word! Talk about a scrumptiouselious dish! While the pasta did stick a little (could be due to delivery), this was fantastic! The Cajun spice was just hot enough to let you know it. But, not so much where it blew the top of your head off. Or, having to guzzle water to put the fire out. 5 Stars And, between the wings, salad and entree, I got enough for 2 dinners, and a lunch. 8-) So, despite the wings being a let down, I'm very pleased with this place. And, for sure, I'll order from them again.

At the last minute, I decided to stop here to pick up something for dinner. And, maybe lunch…read more But, UGH! I learned a valuable lesson today... If you are in a hurry (such as after shopping, or only 30 minutes for lunch), DO NOT come here when they first open (not everything is ready; Corned Beef and Cornbread wasn't out; Cornbread came out about 15 minutes after I got there). Or, are serving the lunch crowd. I got here right at 11:00, and there were 8 people in front of me (1 had 3 orders). And it took nearly 20 minutes before I got to the register. I just hope my few perishables didn't parish during this time + the drive back to my apartment. For dinner, I picked up a repeat review of Baked Chicken, Blackeye Peas, Squash Casserole with a roll (since the cornbread wasn't out yet, I order a yeast roll). And, a slice of Pecan pie (though, the filling seems to be less than the 1st time I had it). But, while I was still in line, the cornbread came out. And, I was able to swap the rolls. When I got back to my apartment, I put the food into storage containers. And, the Chicken just fell off the bones Since, everything is a repeat, I expect it all to be just as good as before. So, I won't update this review, unless something causes me to downgrade it.

I am assuming you have a new cook?? Well, I've eaten there every week for a few years... Never…read moreagain!! This food was completely HORRIBLE today! Please find a better cook or risk loosing a LOT more business. Honestly, the dressing was disgusting! None of the food had any flavor as it once had.

Meat and two veg place. Had daily special that were already cooked like pigs-feet and meat-loaf…read more They had a cook-to-order section that was mostly fried stuff I think, pork-chops, chicken-wings etc. The cook to order stuff took longer to serve, but that's stated upfront and completely natural. There were plenty other options in both the special and cooked-to -order menu, I just don't remember them all. There were about 8-10 yummy sides to choose from. I had meat-loaf with brown gravy (could have been ketchup), collard greens, mashed potatoes with brown gravy and cornbread. I enjoyed it all. My companion had a fried pork-chop and it looked delicious. He seemed very pleased. It's a small old building that's kinda out of the way. It doesn't look like much from the road. If you happened to be driving on its back road you could easily miss it if you weren't looking for it. Found with Apple Maps. It was counter service. Small dining room. It was clean as far as I could tell. Single bathroom was old but well maintained. They had several takeout orders while I was there at late lunch time. The dining room was pretty full with three groups including mine. My only criticism was the fountain drinks were very limited. There were no diet sodas. There was unsweet tea available though.

We had to search for this place as it's in an industrial neighborhood off the beaten path but it…read morewas worth the effort. It's nothing fancy, the cafe is in what looks like a redone modular home. You order your meat and two sides at the counter and get your own drinks. The iced tea was good. There are two long tables in the center so you eat family style but on the Sunday afternoon we went we were the only ones at one of the tables. They were doing a brisk takeout business. The lady who waited on us was very nice. My DD got the grilled pork chop, black eyed peas and macaroni and cheese with a hoe cake. I had pulled turkey with dressing and turkey gravy, sweet potato casserole and collards with a roll (I should have picked the hoe cake). Everything was fabulous with special accolades to the black eyed peas, the mac & cheese and the collards. There were lots of choices too with everything from fried shrimp to chitterlings and ox tails. If you find yourself in Eatonton and you like a meat and two sides search out Ms. Stellas, you won't be sorry.

Amazing pizza service and salad perfect place to eat at the mall after a long day of shoppingread more

It's been several months since I've gotten a pizza from here…read more When I walked in, there was no-one behind the counter. So, after waiting a minute, or 2, I stepped through the Employees Only, and hollered, Anyone here!? No answer. So figuring the prep person was in the bathroom, I sat down to wait. One nice thing that COVID has brought, the aluminum tables and benches, have been stacked to one side. And, they have padded chairs about 6 feet apart. Well, after another 3 minutes of waiting, someone from the Parent Company, Octagon Cafe, came over to wait take my order. Again, it's still advertised but not offered, is the Thin crust pizza. So, since I had a fresh 12 pack of beer, just begging to have pizza to go with it, ;-) I decided on a pepperoni pan pizza. Well, the CSR had to go back across the entrance, to get the pan of dough. :-o While the pizza was good, it didn't turn out great. Apparently, someone didn't spray enough oil on the bottom pan to allow it easy separation. And, because I didn't want the pizza cut (they have a 8-slice cutter), but the cutter hadn't been cleaned after the last use. So, not knowing how long it had been, I ended up bringing the pie pan home. So, now, I'll have to make another stop to return the bottom. And, after all that fighting, the topping had shifted, making for a lopsided pizza. At least I didn't have to pay a tip (I went to add it to the credit card receipt, but she told me not to worry about it). After getting back to my place, and when it was time to cut, and heat, the desired number of slices (3 of 16), I too, had to fight to get the pizza slices off the pan. To be honest, while the price is hard to beat, after today's episode there, I'm not sure if I'll go back, or not.
