Very nice, casual restaurant. Excellent customer service. They have specials each night. They serve tasty hush puppies to snack on while you are waiting for your food. Great salad bar with a good variety of additions- pickled okra, pickles, pickled cucumbers, carrots, onions, baby corn, olives, ham, eggs, pasta salad, bacon bits, croutons and crackers. Lots of appetizers. Catfish, steaks, shrimp, chicken. We got the scrap plate that comes with an 8oz steak, fish fillet and 3 fried shrimp and 2 sides and Texas toast - it was plenty to share. The steak was cooked just as ordered. Fish fillet was cooked perfectly. Tasty shrimp. The baked potato was huge and cooked well- nice and fluffy- served with butter and sour cream. Highly recommend

This country, family resturant was fantastic! Service was great, and the food was simply everything one would look for in a quaint, off the beaten path, country cookery. The catfish and shrimp were fresh, and fried to a crisp perfection. Portions were ample and the steaks were cut to order, cooked to a smokey perfection, leaves one completely satisfied. Live music and a gathering for locals, one should add this place as a must visit when in the area!

Small town restaurant with pretty good steaks. The steak for 2 is a good deal, you can split it, and each get two sides. I also had the fried shrimp plate. You get 8 shrimp with two sides for around $22, or sub out 1 side for a salad bar trip (one small bowl of salad) for an extra $3.50. The live music is nice! It’s a nice alternative if you don’t want to drive into Tupelo. It’s not a cheap place to eat though at all. It doesn’t compare to Red Lobster or Longhorn in my opinion. Just local grub, nothing fancy, but decent food.

I ordered the hamburger steak with potato salad and fried okra. I also ordered fried mushrooms for an appetizer. Everything was delicious. Too much for me to eat at one sitting. I had to get a to go box to enjoy it the next day
