On my most recent visit about three weeks ago, Marlin's wound up being my choice for a quick lunch. This is a rather oddball restaurant. Located in a standalone building on the edge of a large parking lot, the vibe inside I'd say is closest to an American-Mexican restaurant (a la Rosie's, Buena Vista, etc - think vibrant murals, comfy booth seating, large, open spaces). It was a little dimly lit but clean. A friendly hostess got me a seat quickly. The menu continues the oddball vibe. There's literally something for everyone here, with American-Mexican favorites like fajitas and arroz con pollo, along with standard American fare like chicken tenders and pasta dishes, as well as slightly more upscale items like fish and steak. I saw on their website they claim, "We're not just one thing - and that's the point." Well, they've certainly nailed that mantra. My waiter was a pleasant fellow who worked diligently to ensure my meal and check arrived in a timely way. He got me a refill without me having to ask but didn't hover or make me feel like I was unwelcome or a chore. My meal came out quickly and I was in and out in ~30 minutes, which is a pretty good turn-around for a sitdown restaurant. Every table seems to get a complimentary basket of hush puppies as a welcome/starter item. Again, I'd say the vibe overall is closer on the Mexican side of restaurants, so one might expect chips and salsa...but despite this seeming oddity, I'll admit I enjoyed them. They were golden brown, slightly sweet and slightly savory, and came with a tasty dipping sauce. I ate several. They have a lunch menu with reasonable pricing following a typical pattern of entree + one side (dinner portions come with two sides). I was feeling unadventurous and wound up getting chicken tenders and fries, as I thought the tenders looked pretty good in a picture I'd seen on Yelp. I asked for some ranch to dip in. My food was fresh at least in terms of temperature - almost scaldingly so. I got a strong frozen-fried vibe from both fries and tenders, though. Less a crime with the fries, and these were salted nicely and not too greasy. The chicken was rather dry and stringy and the breading didn't really "crunch." They were ultimately unobjectionable, but reminiscent of maybe a McDonalds crispy chicken strip, which seems a little underwhelming from a full restaurant. The ranch was also not very good - not buttermilk, so not super creamy, kind of bottled salad dressing vibes. Ketchup or the residual sauce from the hush puppies was a better choice. Overall, not super wowed but not super let down either. Service was solid and the environment was comfortable. Since the menu is so large, I'd imagine there's something for everyone - and maybe a sleeper hit dish on there, too.

One of many good reasons to like Decatur is Big Bob's Gibson BBQ…read more Now this is close to being sacrilegious but I don't go for their white sauce,or even their famous hickory smoked BBQ, I love the catfish. Always fried in good grease not rancid like some places I could name, their catfish is so sweet and tender and fresh, it almost jumps off the plate and into my mouth. Whether it's slaw or potatoes or beans all the fixings are right on perfect to match whichever meat you choose. But, my five year old self knows it's better to take home leftovers than to leave without a piece of their chocolate meringue pie. This time I bought one for later. There are many fine dining experiences in North Alabama and Tennessee and some these restaurants involve a pilgrimage to get there. Big Bob's lives up to its fame still. It's worth the drive.

The potato was very filling and had plenty of meat on it. I tend to find the meat to be a little dry so I use the white sauce to make up for it, but I would definitely have it again. My friend got a pork stew box that comes with a pork sandwich, half a pint of brunswick stew, a cookie, and a drink. We also got 2 slices of their chocolate pie, I don't really like the meringue that they use to top it but the pie itself was very good. We just went through the drive-through because it was already a little busy and the parking was somewhat limited. The workers were very nice and helpful when ordering. Overall I can see why we had food from there so much when I was a kid. The amount of food we got didn't cost nearly as much if we had went to a fast food place or another kind of restaurant.

So we began seeking something more for us. What we found was Moes. After looking over the menu we selected a pulled pork sandwich, French Fries, Green Beans, Banana Pudding and Moe'd up by adding a quarter chicken. I'll start by saying my wife and I have catered for years, I have multiple smokers and have cook countless meals from hamburgers, hotdogs, brisket, pulled pork, green beans is a specialty, chicken in all kinds of ways. I say all that to say these guys absolutely know how to cook. The chicken was perfect, green beans amazing! One area many mess up is trimming the pork butt so the product is not to "rich" their pulled pork was just right full of flavor but not to fatty. I wanted to pair the BBQ with something tasty and was surprised they had a Kentucky Bourbon Ale (WOW! NICE!) frankly everything was perfect and I plan too visit another time before continuing our vacation. The only thing that took an edge off our evening was during the guitarist performance, my wife and I were singing along and watching "banana baseball" on the monitor. A young woman turned off the center monitor leaving the others on, it killed the mood so I closed my tab when I had planned to have another drink or two. Instead we ended the night. Please, I suggest to turn off the monitors before the music starts so there are no misunderstandings. Side note, Watching the antics of "banana baseball" along with live music was a hoot. Thanks again for a wonderful meal.
