As an international traveling service and food industry critic while unbeknownst to the owner nor…read morestaff, the following is what I experienced: + Comfortable atmosphere. + Salmon Salad was selected by three within our group, which each enjoyed and were not fishy tasting. +/- Salad Bar was clean and ample, but no Blue Cheese. +/- Catfish was okay, but not the finest encountered. - Our Server (Madison H) was terrible! She acted like this was her first day on the job (of any job) and not proactive. When asked for a Bloody Mary she failed to offer any options as published; "pick a spirit then mix and match signature mixes and toppings". When quizzed in depth about the menu, she was clueless. She mixed up our plates because she did not make note of who ordered what. Very slow to present the checks even with the restaurant @~25% capacity. - Seafood Gumbo's flavor was so bad, I could not eat more than one bite. - Meatloaf quality was the worst I've ever experienced. - Twice Baked Potato was very dry and baked far too long. - - - When presented with the check, Madison H failed to clarify that a tip @20% was already included due to our group size of six or more, which was tucked within the tax lines. This was overlooked and she received 30% more than she earned and deserved. - - - The Owner's procedure of have the waitstaff use a handheld credit card machine is fine, if they train the waiters to actually walk away after presenting the check, allowing the customer to review the details of the check and not be rushed. Madison H just presented to check and stood over the table, impatiently waiting to jam the machine into customers face. - - - The Owner also has the gall to charge an extra 3% for using a credit card! Be for real, this is part of doing business, price it in your pricing. Talk about nickel & dime'ing, WOW!!! STEER CLEAR!!! You have so many other greater options, even if you need to drive more.

My husband and I are in the area for business and found this place because of the reviews, here, on…read moreYelp. We had the brisket loaded fries, stuffed oven roasted chicken, green beans, side salad, and hushpuppies. They were ALL phenomenal and the chicken was the most tender chicken either of us have ever had! Our server (I've forgotten her name....Mariah?) was very attentive and sweet. The atmosphere was a bit elevated without being stuffy.....a great downtown vibe. We've already decided, if we are back in the area, this place is a MUST!!

I ordered fried Catfish filets and fried green tomatoes [ I figured if I'm gonna eat fried food, I may as well go all the way :) ] Well, the tomatoes were fried perfectly, lightly breaded, my only complaint is that they were so over salted I couldn't finish it. The fish was a bit better, cornmeal breading again a bit heavy handed with the salt, but passable. I'm sure my pressure will top out soon..My guys both had cheese burgers and fries and said theirs were fine. Tomorrow I'll try another place for lunch

The inside of the fish was ok, but the batter was awful. The slaw was decent but yucky compared to KFC or Long John Silver's. Honestly, the only thing I ate was the slaw. The service was laughable as the guy dropped my fish in the floor as he was fixing it. Another downer was the fact that there was no full menu for the unworkable drive thru...

Like a smash burger, the patty was moist and full of flavor, and the toppings were on point. Big ole burger that'll fill you up. The wings looked dang good too, but we were too full to get some.

Went inside and was directed outside. Followed the sidewalk to a walk up window and was greeted by a smiling young lady. We got 1 tuna salad and 1 chicken salad sandwich. Oh my!!! They both were fabulous, but that chicken salad was fabulous. We now create excuses to travel to Oakland around lunchtime. Now this discovery was made during COVID, so plan on eating on the run, or bring your clubs and hit the links while savoring the sandwiches. It's worth the drive.

There's another group already outside the door discussing where to go next. Our table of 5 sat down and we couldn't talk to each other about what we wanted to order, and we certainly would not be able to order because even shouting across the table we still couldn't talk. So we got up and left. We talked to another couple who was walking in as we left and told them why we were leaving. We saw these people at the same restaurant we ended up at. That's at least a dozen people that I personally know of that refused to have lunch there today only because of the volume. I love watching live bands at a night club where everyone is drinking and partying, but it's too much for lunch.
