Found this place on accident. A very happy accident (Bob Ross voice). It has a Quirky atmosphere. Amazing food! The chicken fried steak is world class! Hand breaded with REAL homemade gravy! Amanda is an awesome cook and super friendly.

Different = delicious. Y’all. Stop here. Food is some of the best I’ve had anywhere in a LONG time, & I get around. The menu may be unassuming at first, but someone in that kitchen is having fun to all of our benefit & their name is very appropriate. I had the hot Johnny & it blew my mind. Their griddler is a magician. 10/10 would make the three hour trip just to eat here again. 🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤 Sorry the picture is kinda meh; we couldn’t help but eat everything before I thought to take it. It was that good.

Very friendly and welcoming staff. Food was pretty basic, with the homemade potato chips and hush puppies being standouts. Atmosphere was casual and relaxed

Cool little diner. Burgers looked good. Salads were huge. I had the crawfish and shrimp etoufee special. Served over crispy cornbread dressing with fried Okra. Hamburger had a great seared with a sesame bun

Great atmosphere! Everything was delicious, especially the armadillo burger and fried pickles. The service was pleasant. Very close to the highway but not right on it. It seemed like there was a good mix of locals and travelers. It is not an in and out kind of place. Save some time to enjoy!
