I assume they open from 6-10 for breakfast then close and open back for lunch at 11-1:30. Its a very simple interior: wooden floors, walls, e big rooms with just tables, chairs with simple tablecloths, some napkin holders salt and pepper, some pepper sauce. You walk in get in line and they ask what you want. This Tuesday they had: Fried chicken, Salisbury steaks in gravy, pot roast, shepherds pie. Veggies were French fries, rice, mashed potatoes, turnip greens, rice, creamed corn, green beans, black eyed peas, fried okra and then your choice of biscuit or a cornbread pancake (Ho cake). Plus they had peach cobbler. 2 of us got the Salisbury steaks one got the fried chicken and one got the pot roast. We all got the cornbread pancake and 3 of us got the peach cobbler and all got drinks. It was $60 for the 4'of us. Which I think was a pretty good deal. I spoke to the lady and she stated her they always have the fried chicken but the meats and veggies will change daily. They will sometimes have chicken and dumplings, rutabaga, on Fridays they'll have fried fish. I will definitely come back. By 11:40 when we were gonna leave the place was pretty packed. You can get your food to go or sit down. This has to be a pretty popular local place. There was an order for 15 when they opened. I will definitely visit again when we are in the area!

Still, when a place is worthy I'll take the time to write about it. This place is worthy. I'm a Southern girl, raised on fried chicken, so you should pay attention to this review for that reason, if no other. I no longer live in Georgia, but I know a good Southern spot when I see it, and when I find one I make a point of stopping when I'm passing through. This place is small, out in the country in south Georgia, completely unassuming, but what they do they do VERY well. The fried chicken is spot on, second only to my mother's, and hers was the pinnacle to which all others should be compared. The fried okra is perfect, absolutely delicious - I would say it's like eating candy, but I don't give two hoots about candy. The potato salad is creamy and yummy as hell. The sweet tea is perfect. We had some other dishes, but those are the ones I'd recommend. Nice ladies at the counter, 2 picnic tables outside for "eat in," though most business seems to be drive-through/take out. If you love fried chicken done right, then be sure to make a stop here!

This one looked like it fit the script but man I was wrong when I walked in. Everyone was super nice and kind but the food was awful and presentation was non existent. My food was bland, no flavor, the biscuits and gravy tasted like nothing but flour and had no seasonings. This is something my Wonderbread white great great grandmother would have made. my white toast was burnt on the bottom which I don't know how you couldn't see that and actually think " hmmm this big girl will eat this no matter what" it baffles me on what runs through peoples heads when it comes to this type of quality of food. unfortunately, I wouldn't even give this to my dog. That's how terrible this food was. The coffee was weaker than my left knee on a rainy day. I apologize for the blunt delivery, but these reviews have got to be written by family members or friends because there's just no way the hype is that real on food that is being served on paper plates with plastic cutlery and blend as ever.

There was already a crowd waiting out front, which is always the best sign of a great local restaurant! It is a cafeteria-style setup with an amazing Sunday lineup. They had both fried and baked chicken, fried pork chops, turnips, rice, black-eyed peas, mac & cheese, fried green tomatoes, steamed okra, and dressing. I had the fried chicken along with the turnip greens, black-eyed peas, and fried green tomatoes. Every single bite was fresh and delicious. The greens and black-eyed peas completely stole the show--easily some of the best I've ever tasted. The friendly staff keeps the line moving smoothly. Don't let a slight opening delay deter you; the food here is absolutely worth the wait!

From the moment we walked in, it felt like visiting your favorite aunt's house on a Sunday after church. The food was hot and fresh, and the staff was friendly and attentive. Everything was well-seasoned, and the chicken was cooked perfectly. The dressing was a tad dry but still flavorful. The collard greens may have been cooked with pork, which I don't eat, so I didn't have them--but I did taste them. They were finely cut, well-seasoned, and definitely not from a can. As I was leaving, I was asked about my experience, and I later realized I was speaking with Ms. Gladys herself. She was sitting in the lobby, observing and ensuring that everyone had a great dining experience. I highly recommend this place for both the food and the hospitality. This feels like "down home"
