    Lunch and Dinner menu
    Edward M.

    The Homestyle food is always fresh and service is good. The casual country ambiance is the standard and local community go to place.

    Burger with fried mushrooms
    Kimberly M.

    Love this little mom and pop spot! Small but mighty! My mom and Aunt love the fresh ground burgers. They were huge! Fried mushrooms were a hit. I had probably the least healthy on the menu, fried mozzarella sticks and tater tots. Just yum. Service is homey, sweet and friendly.

    Nice Food City store, it has had a remodel not long ago…read more Well stocked and clean. As I moved through the store workers said "good morning" and asked if I had found everything. The checker I had was pleasant and efficient (10 am on a Friday)

    I wish I didn't have to write this review but every time I try and support this local grocery store…read moreit ends up poorly. I've gotten to driving a half hour each way to Knoxville because it just seems to get worse over time. Staff aren't attentive, produce selection is horrible (today I wasn't able to get half of the produce I needed because what was on the shelves were disgusting looking - bruises, moldy, old, soft, damaged, etc.) Prices are much higher than Walmart, Kroger in Knoxville, IGA and definitely much higher than Aldi. Deli is really slow most of the time too. Today, like nearly always, the checkout was disappointing. Today was exceptionally bad though; bagger was incredibly inattentive. The cashier wasn't terribly friendly, but the bagger was not paying attention to anything, had really red eyes, and he couldn't focus. He was mindlessly putting things in bags that should never be put together... Raw meat with fresh fruits, bread with heavy items, 6 heavy jars in one bag, frozen with pharmacy, overstuffed bags, ripping bags and more. Not only was the bagger's attention non existent, when we tried to ask him to bag things more thoughtfully he got upset and we ended up bagging much of our own groceries. About 6 staff members just stood by laughing and talking, not helping guests either. Why so many people doing nothing? I get it that it's hard to find quality people, but lack of training and lack of care for customers shouldn't be tolerated. These are basic components of the most simple guest service in retail. I wish it would get better. Produce that isn't bad, slow deli and routinely bad check-out experiences make it almost impossible for me to support this local business. I'll have to keep driving into Knoxville. Only thing good about this location is the pharmacy. They've been helpful and they're kind and friendly most of the time. That's why it's 2 stars instead of 1. Pharmacy is good.

Haven't had pastrami in a while so I had to order the Pastrami Reuben and the presentation was great with how it was stacked! Between the sauce and the sauerkraut the flavors were all good and I enjoyed the taste of the pastrami when I found it, but the bread to meat ratio was so high I mostly tasted the burned crust of the bread and very few bites of pastrami. It was one slice of pastrami, not a thin slice but not what you hope for when you bite into true Jewish deli pastrami, which are normally bursting at the seems with meat. Marble rye is hard not to burn and they did a good job for the most part, but I tasted more crust than I did pastrami, and for $18 I wonder if this sandwich was more a charge for the hype. The blintzes were also smaller than one would expect of a blintz but I absolutely loved the compote on top.

It was beyond lunch time and I hadn't eaten at all, so I looked around as we drove and saw the sign for this place. I love a good deli sandwich so I asked my husband to pull in and let me run in. It was a Wednesday afternoon and after lunch, so there were only a few people inside. Upon entering, I went in a door that was at a dessert counter. There were few cupcakes and treats in the case, so I quickly went on past to find the counter to order a sandwich. The ladies at the counter were super friendly and took my order quickly. I chose a hot ham and cheese sandwich with bbq potato chips and a fountain drink. The order took about 7 or 8 minutes to be prepared and brought to me in a box to the table where I sat and waited. There was seating outside by the river/creek(?) I believe and then there was seating inside. It looks like it was once another restaurant or some other establishment taht they have transformed into this deli. Don't let the looks of the inside deter you, though! The food was phenomenal! My sandwich was so delicious! I have made note that if ever in the area again, I will be back!
