We were under the impression…read morethat Henderson's was more of a restaurant than a fast food place by looking at the pictures and reviews. Even though we wanted something more higher end the food was great! I definitely would recommend if you are looking for a fast food place with many options.

Henderson's restaurant is located on Smith Avenue in Thomasville, Georgia. It is not far from the…read moredowntown shopping area. Parking is plentiful and the restaurant has a homestyle feel that makes you feel it's been there for decades. The menu is large, but not so large that it takes more than a single sheet of paper. Henderson's offers breakfast, as well as lunch and dinner. They're open from 6 am - 7:30 pm, and are closed on Sunday, as is most of Thomasville. The breakfast offerings include sandwiches, breakfast in a cup and plated meals. The prices range from $3 - 7, with a few higher priced offerings that include steak. Lunch and dinner options include burgers, sandwiches, salads, soups, chicken tenders, quesadillas and wings. Most options range between $5 - 8, with a few options up to $16. Henderson's is very budget friendly. Service is pleasant and swift. The dining area is fairly a no-frills interior including long tables, stackable type padded chairs and pastel-colored beadboard walls decorated with some large Grateful Dead framed posters. We ordered a burger and a Philly style Cheesesteak. You order at the counter and they call you when your meal is ready to be picked up. Both were served with crinkle cut fries. The food was fast and filling. I preferred the Philly style Cheesesteak, which was juicy and deliicous! The burger bun was a little dried out. The fries were crispy and hot. If you want a budget meal, you cannot beat Henderson's! Next time, we plan to try a couple breakfast options.

I settled in for the fried shrimp, sweet potato fries and coleslaw, while Dawn had the Greek-shrimp salad. We were served quickly and the shrimp was fresh and cooked nicely. I like my fries just a little more crispy than what I received, but they weren't bad. The slaw was good, with just a hint of dill in the mix. Dawn absolutely loved her salad, it was seasoned just right according to her. Everyone was friendly, the waitress made sure we were okay, and the ambience was good. It's a little pricey for everyday dining, but it was definitely worth the price. Give George and Louie's a try if you are in the Thomasville Ga. Area!

I really wanted to love Q Café. With its cute, charming exterior and a reputation for "famous giant biscuits," I was excited to finally try it out. Unfortunately, the experience left me more disappointed than anything else. From the moment I sat down, things felt off. My waitress was unfriendly and let me know it was only her second day when I asked about a menu item. That's totally understandable, new staff need time, but I never did get an answer to my question, which left me hesitant to order the dish I'd asked about. I ordered coffee, water, and my food all at once. The coffee? Strong and solid, no complaints there. But that was the only highlight. My food came out ridiculously fast, within two minutes, which immediately raised a red flag. Sure enough, it didn't seem freshly cooked. My egg was not how I ordered it (over-medium) and instead it was fried to rubber. The biscuit was, well... bad. Really bad. The bottom was burnt so deeply it tasted charred, while the top was oddly stale and spongy, like it had been sitting around for a while. The sauce on top didn't deliver either; it was supposed to have a honey sweetness but just tasted like reheated butter. The ham was barely warm, and every bite of the food lacked seasoning or care. To be honest, it all felt rushed, like it had been pre-prepped and thrown together without thought. As for the water, it had such a strong, chemical taste that I actually recoiled and had to force myself to swallow it rather than spit it out. I've never had water that bad before, and it left an unpleasant aftertaste I couldn't shake. I tried to give Q Café the benefit of the doubt, but I just couldn't finish my meal. Between the burnt biscuit, overcooked egg, room temperature ham, plain melted butter soaked flavorless food, and questionable water, the basics were way off. I left feeling baffled and disappointed, wishing my experience had matched the café's charm. I don't like writing negative reviews, but they really missed the mark here. I won't be coming back, which is a shame because I had high hopes. read more

I had the best breakfast the other day at the Q Cafe. The eggs were prepared to perfection fried with butter, the bacon was crispy and cooked perfectly, my pancakes were delicious and the biscuits were moist as well as filling. I ordered two and had to take one with me. If you are ever in the area do not hesitate on eating hear. Also, the waitress was very friendly and kept my glass full! read more

Red beans and rice as the second side...a personal favorite. We sat outside as it has a great vibe since it's located at an old train depot! If you're lucky a train will pass by while you're dining! Service is nice and servers are very attentive. You can also sit in the Bar Mason and get fabulous service as well and order off of the menu as if you were in the restaurant or sitting outside. Great date night spot for sure!

A thick piece of grouper with beautifully blackening on a toasted roll with lettuce, red onion and Jonah's sauce. The fries were hot, the slaw could've used some seasoning. The golf ball sized hush puppy was moist on the inside and crispy outside. Great flavors. Very attentive server. Checked back several times and refilled my tea.

I also tried their gator bites appetizer which was good too. Only complaint it wasn't seasoned but it was fried to perfection. I still enjoyed it. The reason I will rate this restaurant a 4 star is due to their menu items being basically all listed as "market price". I understand it's seafood and it's expensive but that's how you get a unexpected high bill. My gator bites appetizer was $24 which was expensive for a small appetizer. You want know what to expect to pay when dining here.

On Sundays they have only two entree options (it varies weekly), today was Bonesless Pork Chop or Fried Butter Honey Boneless Chicken Breast both included Rice (looked & tasted like a pilaf), lima beans, field peas, a roll and drink. We also both got a Homemade Dessert (Brownie delight & blueberry cake). They had I think 6 dessert options. Our total for everything was $31 plus tip not sure of the exact breakdown on pricing. Really a great value. The food was AMAZING! Nice portion sizes and obviously fresh & homemade! The service was EXCELLENT! It's a family owned restaurant and the entire family was hustling in the front & back. We arrived around 110pm and they were packed with the church crowd. They close at 2pm so we were concerned we were pushing it but there was no rush at all to leave. The patrons were even very friendly - Small town USA fell! We definitely will be back as they serve breakfast & lunch Wednesday - Saturday as well and we were told by a local they always have daily specials (such as fried steak, catfish, shrimp, etc.). Worth the short drive from Valdosta.
