    Looks tired and dirty.  You can see the gross floors.
    Carmen S.

    Mixed review because I didn't like it and the spouse did. The place is filthy. The floor was covered in spilled drinks and sticky. Trash was overflowing right next to the counter. Restrooms were disgusting. It was busy but I've been in busier places that managed to hold it together. The wait was excruciatingly long. It's not like they're making it fresh, what's the hold up. Fries had zero salt and were dry and greasy at the same time. Impressive accomplishment. The chicken tenders were decent but I've had better in grocery stores. They were bland and greasy. Not impressed but since I don't live near one? Doesn't matter about going back, not that I would.

    Food we ordered

    THIS IS NOT THE FIRST TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED!!! Went to the drive thru today to order a BBQ FAMILY Pack. Comes with 1 pint of BBQ- 8 pieces chicken, 2 dozen hush puppies and 2 other sides. Ordered the pack and went through the drive thru to pay as usual. When asking the worker am I able to get BUTTER and SAUCE FOR BBQ and hush puppies. I was greeted by a rude worker that would not even give me BUTTER OR BBQ SAUCE FOR A 50$ meal. THEY TOLD ME I HAD TO ORDER IT WHEN I ORDERED THE MEAL IN THE DRIVE THRU LINE. This is bullshit, I pay 50$ and cannot get condiments that are worth cents for this establishment. Luckily I was not there to cuss them out or speak with the manager as my wife was picking up the food. I do not recommend this location they have always been rude and customer SERVICE IS TERRIBLE. Next time this happens I will speak with the CHAIN OWNER SOME CHANGES NEED TO BE MADE at this Smithfields. THIS IS NOT THE FIRST TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED!!!

    Chicken wing snack
    Rachel H.

    Hot and fresh wing meal, but the breading was salty. The fries were just okay. I'm torn, but I know it's a local favorite.

    BBQ Combo White, 2 sides, & baked beans as a courtesy. My daughter had Shrimp Platter.
    Charlene R.

    The Blk Female mgr always takes care of me when I visit. (I must get her name next time) Superb customer service! Great visit this time than last food was so much better tasting and fresh. It's always good atmosphere we watched the Commanders Lose .

    The employees were kind and welcoming. The service was quick and my food was hot. Sanitation rate is a 99 and I really appreciate that. The dining room was clean and organized. The bathrooms were also clean and stocked.

    Combo plate with dark meat
    Tony P.

    Excellent! Combo plate with two fried chicken thighs and pulled pork. Huge portions at a reasonable price. I normally don't like vinegar based BBQ but the pulled pork had a subtle vinegar flavor that I really enjoyed. I'm glad I stopped in.

    Fried chicken plate with a side of Brunswick stew.

    Pros: It's your standard casual family restaurant, but food is usually hot and fresh, and service,…read moreonce you're seated, is good. Excellent salad bar. The salmon, deconstructed kabobs, and grilled chicken are all delicious. Cons: Often understaffed (typical these days, not wholly their fault). Food portions sometimes small for the price compared to similar chain restaurants.

    Rating: "False Advertising & Inedible Food - Don't Waste…read moreYour Money" I wish I could give this place zero stars. My wife and I visited this Ruby Tuesday today, and it was a complete disaster from start to finish. We ordered the Fried Catfish & Crispy Shrimp, expecting the generous, golden-brown platter shown on their website (which is priced at $22.49 online, though the receipt showed $17.99). What we actually received was an absolute joke. The portions were so tiny and pathetic that my wife--who literally never complains--had to ask the waitress if they had accidentally brought her a kids' meal. Not only was the portion size deceptive, but the quality was disgusting. Everything was dripping in old grease and tasted foul. It looked nothing like the marketing photos. When we brought this up to the waitress, Dana B, she was completely dismissive, simply stating, "No, that's just the way it comes here." The service was the "icing" on the cake. Our waitress seemed happy to serve us this garbage and acted like receiving complaints was a normal, everyday occurrence. To make matters worse, we overheard the couple behind us complaining about their meal as well. Instead of apologizing, the waitress actually laughed it off and told them, "That's the coupon plate." It is clear this management has no pride in their food or their service. We ended up paying over $50 for a meal that was essentially inedible. We will never eat here again and will make sure to warn everyone we know to stay far away from this location.

I had country fried steak with mash potatoes, green beans and hash brown casserole. It was satisfying and filling. At 15.00 dollars just the right price. My wife had the egg , sausage, hashbrown casserole a new menu item it was pretty good. At 14.00 dollars a nice price for a tasty breakfast at 3:00pm. I sampled a couple of bites. I will give it a try one day. Cracker Barrel is a tough menu choice because they have all my comfort food favorites. The service is always good and quick.

The couple at the table in front of me, the waitress waiting on the table behind me, asked them had someone taken their drink order. Wow!!!! 5 minutes later the HOST came and asked for my drink order. 2 minutes later, the manager came and took my food order. AFTER my food came and I'm eating, the waitress that was suppose to be waiting on me, asked if I needed anything. I ALMOST CUSSED HER OUT! Reason being, she had walked by me SEVERAL TIMES. The restaurant was not busy, but steady. Nah, I'm cool on you all. I could assume another reason as I looked around to see the demographics, but I digress. Thanks but no thanks. SIDE NOTE: You're probably saying, why wait 20 minutes? I was working...answering emails, putting out fires and the time got away from me.

This place is everything but quick.. it took us 40 minutes to get our order, the fries were cold and the rest of the food was just kinda meh.

The only reason I'm doing a two star is because my husband said he liked the brew choice and the bread in his sandwich was good ----- Updating given recent remarks in response to my review ---- I appreciate the response to the review, however, I want to be clear that I did not state anything to the nature of referring to or expecting pricing to be in line with fast food pricing... If this is what I was seeking, we certainly would have gone elsewhere (fast food within half a mile) I can only assume someone else has made this remark to the business in the past, however, the comment on pricing specifically related to the sheer amount of food given. i.e. my husbands sandwich had very little protein on it and relied on getting filled by the bread and extra side of fries purchased.
