When I asked about the heat on the mango habanero wings the waitress said I have no idea. I don't like hot things. Um, that's your job to be able to give recommendations on the food. They were pretty busy and the appetizers came out in about 25 minutes, which was fine, but the wings were lukewarm, and the queso dip was cold. Baffled again. Had a hard time flagging down one of those three waitresses to tell them. It was fish fry night, so they canceled the normal menu, which seemed pretty strange to me and had a smattering of other items . I really didn't want fish again this Friday so that was pretty disappointing I I found the normal menu on their Facebook page & it looked really really good. On a good note the fish was really really good, but my cheeseburger was less than impressive. All in all. I'm not sure if I'd give them a second try which is too bad cause I really like to support the small town small business.

It was a breaded rather than battered fish, but still good none-the-less. Both the staff and the food are great. I'd give them 5 stars for those, but the atmosphere has no privacy and it is often difficult to hear other people talk over the sound. The entire restaurant is entirely open, so it's hard to block sounds from other tables. I would still give this place another try.

Thank you for a great start to my Saturday. It was my birthday too but I don't mention that to people.

I've heard this place had the humongous cinnamon rolls and I knew I had to get one. The small could feed 3 people easily and the family size is HUGE. I ordered the biscuits and gravy, scrambled eggs and bacon. The bread was fresh made and the gravy was delicious! Coffee is always piping hot and service cannot be beat! This place gets busy and I can see why. The food was great, service was outstanding and the homemade bread, cookies and cinnamon rolls are the stars here. If you're ever by Millington, stop by here. You'll be glad you did!

A pretty good overall experience, perhaps a few things could be improved for next time…read more I was pleased with the quality of our appetizer, as well as the creativity. We went with a fried goat chase appetizer, which I've never had before, and never even seen on another menu before. The cook clearly enjoys using balsamic glaze as this was used on both the appetizer and later on my entrée as well. Balsamic glaze is certainly delicious, but I'm not sure if it goes well on quite as many things as the cook seems to think it does. My entrée was a dish of mushroom ravioli prepared in a purée made with green peas. I noted that the chef used a variety of spices in preparing the purée, to very good effect. My wife ordered the New York strip, and what was brought out looked very good. We both had cocktails, and in both cases the cocktails or well-made. I ordered a Mojito type drink made with tequila. My wife ordered a strawberry Mamosa. I noted the care that was taken in preparing both drinks which tells me there's a professional bartender on staff. About the only thing that needs to be improved is the service. We waited just a bit too long for certain aspects of the meal in a restaurant that was nearly empty. The server was certainly polite and well mannered, but I think he was the only one working that evening. Perhaps on weekends they're better staffed?

I enjoyed their limited offering of a wet burrito and a few days later the showboat club on Texan toast. Flattop and booth seating with plastic table clothes and paper napkins.

Good to very good service depending on the waitress. No wifi. The meals weren't fantastic but were solid where I would return again.

It's located on a sad lonely street, with only one car on site. We thought for sure there lit-up "open" sign was lying. But we bravely went in and we're glad we did. We sat at the bar with just a couple other locals and enjoyed some cold beer. I had the Reuben- nothing to write home about but it hit the spot. Same with my husband's cheeseburger. The service was warm and welcoming. Not really a place for kids but they wouldn't be turned away. Check it out if you're in the area-ish! Support local businesses!
