This was my first time eating here, and I'm already hooked. There is nothing but wonderful things to be said about this place. From the atmosphere to the food, this restaurant I'd fantastic. Our server was as sweet as pie, and the desserts are to die for. They also serve Tomato Aspic, which is a rare delicacy.
Everything we have eaten there has been excellent! I love the chicken and dumplings. The turnip greens are great! If you haven't been there, you are missing out.
Food was excellent. Had the chicken and dumpling with purple gull peas and greens. Topped it off with some blackberry cobbler with a scoop of ice cream. I need a nap now.
Wonderful place to eat. So envious of those who work near here and eat here regularly. I would be so fat. With all the superb sandwiches and salad, they make an awesome hamburger dressed just the way you want it. My partner had the A Robbie Salad. We shared the Ice Cream Sunday and I’m glad I saved room for it. Exception service by Katheryn.
20 minutes after opening on a Friday the place was already full with 6 parties in front of us. We waited about 15 minutes until being seated. I read the reviews before coming. I get it and agree that the food nothing stellar. Don’t get me wrong. It was good. But nothing “wow” about it. I think the reason to go here is for the experience of the town square. We started by walking around the square and visiting the trains which you can go inside. And the charm of the restaurant just adds to the overall experience which is exactly what we wanted. Servers were friendly. Blue plate specials were good. And the pies/cobbler were what we would have expected from a place like this. My daughter enjoyed the corn dogs and ate half my father’s corn beef sandwich which my dad said was pretty good. The cherry limeade was a bit sour for my daughter but she liked it. Ice tea we made 1/2 sweet and 1/2 unsweetened which fit the palate of my wife. I had the Lucy plate which was pretty good. The corn bread plain is a bit dry but smothered it tasted pretty good. The pot roast, turnip greens and congealed salad made from mandarin oranges and pineapples was pretty good too. Again not stellar. But good and spot on for the ambiance which includes a toy train in the room next door and old town feel. Chocolate chess pie was really good, and blackberry cobbler I ate alone because everyone was full (a solid desert). I thought the prices were pretty decent given the area where I imagine rent is expensive.
Neat little place! Very cozy atmosphere! There is even a model train and whole set up that goes around near the ceiling above everyone!
Food was good and filling, service was fast and friendly.
We showed up at around 10:30AM looking for breakfast, but they do not service breakfast! That aside the lunch we had was great!
All staff was correctly wearing a mask too.
The food is great, I had the pot roast, squash casserole and turnip greens. The service is always super friendly. There is usually a wait, just sign the clipboard when you go in. They are only open for lunch until 2 but they also sell take home food until 4 I think.
A great discovery. Home cooked meals, friendly staff. The problem is deciding what to have. Look for the daily specials as a guide. this is a great spot when we're traveling as it is outside of Memphis in a cozy hometown setting.
OFF THE BEATEN PATH: while venturing around the old downtown section we had seen this location previously and decided to make a trip back to try it out; it was worth the ride back out to the restaurant and the chance to take in a little history while strolling through the town square (it has a historical marker detailing the historical significance of the town square). The restaurant reminds you of the old small town appeal but with the proficiency of today's environment without losing it's charm. The Southern small town charm leaves you with a desire to linger and take in the buildings decorative reminders of the town's beginnings. The staff is engaging and had great feedback on the menu choices and made great recommendations during this visit. As a fish lover, they were able to satisfy my craving for my #1 fave - Catfish! It was nicely breaded and cooked to perfection. The baby butter beans just melted in my mouth and the turnip greens were a delight. A great home style cooked meal.
It was delicious! If its crowded, you only really have to wait like 20 minutes. The downtown area is super cute and a great part of town. It is reasonably priced. I recommend the chicken and dressing with the sweet potato casserole. The cornbread is also very sweet and tasty!
