Place isnt what it used to be

I used to love this place. I have been coming here since I was a young child. They took away the pass arounds which was the main reason I went. I love there fried green tomatoes. Please bring em back!!!

Food is terrible, passarounds stingy, prices WAY up!

I've lived in this area for 20 years. Used to love this restaurant--been going there for the whole 20 years. I will NOT go back!

Not only has the prices increased exponentially, the passarounds have changed from each person getting a plate, to one small tray with a few fried okra and fried green tomatoes, which are shared by all, no matter how many are at your table. If you want more, you have to pay. The rolls are still good, but the muffins weren't.

The FOOD WAS HORRIBLE! I ordered the $18.95 "Sampler" which had every kind of meat you can think of. The popcorn shrimp were good. The ribs were good, but fatty (used to fall off the bone, and advertised this way--I had to fight 1 to get meat and gave up after that). The chicken fried steak and chicken fried chicken had the WORST flavor I've EVER had. We had to pay full price $14.95 for a 12 year old to eat, as kids plates are only for 7 years old and under. For 3 adults, a 12 year old and a 6 year old, with tip, our meal was $100!!! And because our food was so horrible, we walked out still hungry!

It was a Saturday night around 6:00 p.m.. In the past, you would be waiting outside for over an hour at this time of day. The restaurant was not even half full.

They need to give up and go ahead and close the doors. They obviously have let money get the best of what they used to do best.

• Pros: Rolls were throwed and were good
• Cons: Everything else was expensive and gross!
