"Overall, everything was okay, but the experience could have been better. We arrived around 1:30, knowing they close at 3, but unfortunately, the service felt a little rushed from the start. It took at least five minutes for someone to bring us menus, and our waitress seemed like she was already ready to call it a day.
I asked for water without ice, but she seemed a little bothered since she had already brought me a glass full of ice. After placing our order, we waited more than 15 minutes. Meanwhile, staff were already mopping the kitchen and other areas, which made it feel like they were more focused on closing than on the customers still dining.
On the bright side, the food was delicious, and the coffee was good, too! The food definitely deserves credit, but the service and overall atmosphere could use some improvement.
A little more attention to customers, even toward closing time, would make a big difference."
"Compared to other breakfast restaurants we've ordered from this skillet was a smaller portion. Also, side pancakes were just stuffed into a tiny container."

"The chopped chicken salad with fresh ingredients and zesty citrus dressing is ALWAYS delicious...whether dining in or taking it to go!"
"The description is wrong for this item. It is not a chicken pot pie with vegetables. It is actually an egg bake with sausage gravy and a crispy crust. Description is AI generated. I ordered this twice so confirmed not a delivery error. It's good, but if you wanted a traditional chicken pot pie, this is not."

"The serving sizes are massive and the food is delicious (the drop biscuits are bigger than my hand and the pancakes are bigger than my head but nice and fluffy). I think they're still working out being on a food delivery service though so it might be a little delayed for your driver, but it's worth the wait. "
"The Shrimp & Grits is so good. Large portion, excellent flavor, and still hot on arrival. i enjoyed it! But.... I am from the south and the Fried Green Tomato was nasty. They were cut large and fried very well, a golden crisp. they had all the qualities of perfection but had ZERO flavor. They came with a dip that was good, but no matter how I dipped it, it was a No. Overall will definitely eat here again!"
