In Short – Just northwest of the city, this family-owned country kitchen has been serving their own particular (and much lauded) brand of Southern home cookin' for more than half a century. The waits on many nights of the week can be slightly intimidating for the uninitiated, but those in the know about the stomach-satisfying fare know they're in for a treat. The menu focuses on hearty dishes (although there are some salads and greens offered) like the signature chicken-fried steak topped with creamy, peppery gravy.

Finally A Restaurant Worth The Money
by Barbisch at Citysearch
We heard a rumor that Ma and Pa Goodson were back and running the Goodson's Cafe. We had been fans of the Cafe in the past but had not had good experiences the last few visits. We were SO pleased. Our Family of four, which included two hungry teenage diners, were able to enjoy a Wonderful meal including drinks and deserts for around $50.00. The wait staff was johnny on the spot with refills, extra napkins, or whatever we needed. The food was served hot, and everything had wonderful flavor. We're still trying to figure out how their french fries taste like lays bar-b-que potatoe chips... The Chicken Fried Steaks were Huge, the veggies had great flavor to them, and the bananna pudding was better than my homemade. We will definately be returning. For once we didn't feel like we were being ripped off...If you want some wonderful food, fantastic service, and a quaint atmosphere, GO TO GOODSON'S! ! ! !
- Pros: The Chicken Fried Steak is the best around
- Cons: We coulndn't find any cons

Goodson Cafe is yukky...
by momintomball at Citysearch
Yuk....The chicken fried steak was like eating a rubber band. The gravy is good. It used to be a great place to eat, but the past two times my family and I ate there.... will be the last.
Not great service, bad meat and the table was dirty.
Their are too many other great places to eat in town. Why bother, with what I consider a mess.
- Pros: Good Parking
- Cons: Food is not good, anymore.
