"Stopped for dinner while on a road trip. Surprised by the menu variety. Very reasonable prices. The whiting special was so much food! Hushpuppies and mac n cheese were excellent. I ate in the nice little dining area but I saw lots of people get take out too."

"On a mission to find a burger worth the drive—was 15 miles too far? Not for this one. Juicy, perfectly seasoned, and cooked just right, this burger was everything I hoped it would be. The fries? Crisp and golden with just the right amount of salt. Add in friendly, attentive service, and you’ve got a place that’s absolutely worth the trip. I’ll be back—and happily making that drive again. Edits for Return Trips: Chicken Gyro Combo ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ OMG....new favorite. Tried it today, and tonight I wish I was having it for dinner. Delicious!"

"From out of town working in Bennetsville. I made a huge mistake going here. I got way too much great food at a a good price. Hamburger steak, fried pork chops, chicken livers and a ton of sides. I have eaten till my stomach hurts and now Im probably going to sleep in."
