For those unfamiliar, the salmon croquette made its way into Southern cooking during the…read moreDepression, when poverty and pellagra were common. The latter, a horrible disease brought on by lack of protein, ran rampant among African Americans whose diets lacked it. In the 1920s, canned salmon could be had for pennies. Add an egg and you'd have enough protein to stave off the disease for a week. The inventive cooks in the Black community found ways to make it delicious, by adding chopped onion and binding it with the salmon liquor from the can and breadcrumbs. Like so many Southern dishes that arose from need, the salmon croquette has kept the spot it earned on the soul food roster. The salmon patty was a reputed favorite of author William Faulkner who was said to enjoy them quite a lot with liquor. (Or with quite a lot of liquor, I'm unsure which.) An excellent salmon patty can be had at Greg's Breakfast Bar. According to the sign on the front door, it's the best in Alabama, and I'll not dispute it. It's what I ordered on this most recent visit and although I've not personally sampled its rivals, it would be hard to imagine a better one. When I was a kid, my own mother--who grew up during the Depression--made them every Tuesday. (Greg's may be better. Sorry, Mom.) There's no liquor served at Greg's, so I had to eat my salmon croquette with coffee. For $10 at Greg's, you too can sample the best salmon croquette in Alabama. Other local faves like Conecuh sausage line the GBB menu. Eggs and grits accompany the breakfast plates, which make up the left half of the menu. Breakfast sandwiches occupy the other half. Greg's is open early (5:30 a.m. if memory serves), and stays open until lunchtime. When my travels take me through Montgomery--as they did last week on a drive from Pensacola to Atlanta--Greg's is a quick detour off of 65 or 85. I timed my drive accordingly. The interior is classic diner, vinyl and stainless . SEC memorabilia and signed player photos decorate the place. Everybody seems to know Greg. The crowd is local. Parking limited. Makes no difference. Park on the street.

The place is not the cleanest-- floors needed vacuuming, chairs were held together with duck tape.. but I pressed on hoping the food would redeem the space. Service was friendly. However, it was awkward listening to the waiter/waitresses/hostess/ kitchen staff have a conversation with each other across the entire restaurant. This was especially true after a patron sent something back and the kitchen came out loudly exclaiming that they wanted to see the food that "wasn't good enough." I had the fried chicken, greens, okra, and mashed potatoes. The chicken was fantastic. Perfectly cooked, juicy, and the tastiest fried skin/breading. That's where the goodness stops. The turnip greens were flavorless and complete mush, as though they had been sitting on the heat all day. Mashed potatoes were clearly from a box based on the consistency, color and flavor. Gravy had no flavor as well. There wasn't enough salt on the table to make it all better. The okra came out about 15min after we got our plates. It was fresh, but again, flavorless. My husband had the fried pork chop. It was just okay -- cooked well, zero flavor. Butter beans were good flavor wise, but definitely seemed to have been sitting for a while. It was odd to us that the only things you could get to drink were water, tea, lemonade, milk, and coffee. The second star is only for the chicken. I doubt we'll go back because the above experience for $50 is not worth it.

They were down to the scraps of what food they did have left, which wasn't much, but okay, we get that. We made do. But, when the waitress came to take our drink orders, she said they were out of sweet tea. Hmmm.. it takes about 5 minutes to make tea, but whatever. My husband made a comment, "man, y'all are out of everything" The waitress had such an attitude & said "we got hit hard" in a way that just seemed so argumentative. We sit and continue to eat what we were able to get & i noticed that they had not put cornbread or a roll on my plate. My husband walked back up and asked and they said they were out of cornbread. So, he would take a roll. They said they were out. It is hard to believe that there was not 1 roll in the place. Anyway, the quality of the food was nothing at all to brag about. But my main issue was how rude the waitress had been. So, while he was paying (full price mind you- even for a 3 yr old's lemonade but again, whatever) I walked over to the waitress. All i said to her calmly & nicely, was "i think you could have had a better attitude" She snapped back immediately. She said i think he could have too, talking about my husband. She said we came in at the end of day. Seriously? And that we gave the line guys a hard time. And that we talked about it the whole time we were there. Not so!! When i went to answer and say something to her she got up and said she was not gonna talk about it anymore and stormed off. I am 99% sure i will not return. Not because of the mediocre food. Not even because of the lack of choices. But the very poor customer service did for me. I guess i was expecting something along the lines of "i am so sorry we are out of so much. Please don't let this deter you from visiting us again"

Ok so I have been to many WH's but this was BY FAR my absolute favorite!! Valarie was the sweetest person ever!! She interacted with everyone! She had many "Waffle House Songs" and she was always smiling and dancing. She really made it a fun place to be and she was always very entertaining, enjoyable, and extremely exited and happy to be there. If I ran this restaurant I would give her a huge raise. SHE DESERVES IT!!! She puts so much work and effort in making sure everyone was satisfied with their food and got it very quickly. She NEVER cut any corners. She greeted everyone that walked in immediately and she is just absolutely AMAZING and had such an AMAZING passion for her job!!! read more
