Have eaten here many times since the current owner acquired this place. Joe promised back then, "...honest, down-home, COUNTRY cooking...emphasis on 'country'...." In other words, THIS IS PROBABLY WHAT YOUR GRANDPARENTS MADE FOR YOU WHEN YOU CAME TO VISIT.
For 9 years, he's been consistently true to his pledge, and this is probably one of the better-kept secrets in the area. 'Country'...but with Joe's versatile flair; a fair amount comes with 'oak-smoke' flavor. With or without the smoke, though, everything that comes out of his kitchen has his seal of approval on it. The wait staff is most personable, and this only follows, as the owner is same.
Great flavor and quality, very fair price, you'll likely be surprised. It's all so effortlessly delivered, you may miss it. It took me a couple-three visits to realize just what's going on here. It's all good!
If you're looking for national franchise / plastic facade / theme-park style hoopla...well, you certainly won't find that here, and you'll be disappointed. Keep driving.

This is a great place where all the locals go. The place use to be an outside porch. They have screened in the porch and made this into a wonderful b'fast and lunch restruant. They serve home cooked meals. The waitress when you walk in usually remembers everyones order because people come so regularly. It is a great place if you like home cooked meals. Love the homefries with onions!

The smoked meatloaf was very good. The first time I ordered it, it came with collards, which I liked very much. They changed the veggie the second time. Ask for the collards.
