We felt just like part of the family when we walked in. The food tasted great like it came out of a family members kitchen at a family reunion. Just make sure you bring cash or a Virginia check book to pay. Wish there were more diners like these around.

Don't expect superb food- expect a good put together meal that may clog an artery but will 'bless your heart' the whole time. I was not a fan that the meats (sausage and bacon) were all precooked. There is a huge difference in taste and quality. The price is really reasonable, but they only accept cash.

We ordered a few appetizers and entrées and everyone pretty much enjoyed their meal. I do feel like the flounder was a little bit undersea, but everything else was pretty good.

We were are in Mathews, Virginia for our anniversary. A rural village an hour from the closest…read moremajor city and the chef knows how to prepare tasty, creative dishes. We had the Appalachian salad to start- fresh and tangy. I had pheasant sausages and duck. My husband had the surf and turf- crab cake and small filet. Our side were the same- mashed potatoes and rote kohl. My dish also had a very tasty garnish of onions and blueberries. It was all prepared well and with the pheasant sausage they offered something I would have trouble finding elsewhere. Dessert was good- the Sinatra, a limoncello cake, and coffee. Portions were on target. I hate to leave food and always need to take a togo box. Not here and I left pleasantly satiated. Tables were a little too close to one another for my taste, making less romantic than I would have liked on this night. Our server made up for this minor flaw, as she was personable, attentive, and accommodating. Fun cocktail menu.

Lots of fresh seafood. I've never had a bad meal here. Prices are very reasonable. Don't forget to check out their desserts. Smith Island cake is often available and in many different flavors. If you want fancy - don't go here. If you want real eastern shore food at a good price, then do. Hearty breakfasts too.

The fried chicken portion was huge - half a chicken basically. It was seasoned well (maybe a bit too salty but went well with turnip greens which weren't seasoned as well). The fried catfish was great - fish was delicious and not muddy tasting. My favorite sides would have to be the fried apples and the turnip greens, which were tender yet fresh.

It's a long drive into the middle of nowhere to a very charming beachfront town but it was a dreary and rainy day. We easily parked in the large gravel lot and walked inside and were immediately sat at a table by the water with a lovely view. Our waitress was prompt and super friendly. We chose to get the crab hush puppies and were thrilled to see they were made fresh and hot to order and tasted phenomenal. We devoured them quickly. We decided to split the fish taco meal since it was lunch for us and it came with two large-sized tacos and cole slaw. It was a nice portion for an entree and was easily enough for both of us for a lighter lunch. Really delicious sweet tea so I took some to go. Small gift shop attached and tons of seating inside and expansive views of the water with a back wall of windows all around.
