Customer Reviews

"What an absolutely wonderful experience, from our server Libby treating us as family, to food prepared as though your cousin is Michelin chef moonlighting as a "country cook"_ at home. Good food and hearty helpings ... especially that jumbo pancake! We will be back"

- Melanie J.

"Libby was exceptional! She jumped right in as if we'd been lifelong friends. Honestly a highlight to our weekend in Cadiz! Food was good, atmosphere was cozy but the personal touch Libby provided with her service made the experience 5 stars!"

- Lisa W.

"We chose this local restaurant on purpose which is off the beaten path from I-24 E Cadiz, KY. It is definitely a place to go out of your way to enjoy a meal. Firstly, Lana, our hostess/server, greeted us with a friendly smile and a warm hello. Our starter was a half order of Fried Green Tomatoes. Undoubtedly they were the best we've ever eaten out. Ever. We both ordered the Fried Catfish with veggies as a side. The food there is perfectly seasoned, piping hot, and for no other adequate descriptive word that I can conjour up, I will only say delicious. We met Judy the proprietress who is a delightful lady. I will end by stating that the off the road visit was worthwhile and I highly recommend a visit."

"An enjoyable meal for all of us. Fish sandwich was delicious and large, Ruben was excellent, corn chowder very tasty and all large portions. Fried green beans are yummy as is the peach cobbler. I'll be happy to go back again"

- Audrey L.

"The catfish was amazing, as was the cheese curds. The Mac and cheese could be a little better, and the service was maybe a bit slow. Minor nitpicks, but worth noting imo."

- Dead S.

"A great little place to stop, especially for breakfast! We had breakfast on a Friday morning in July. Food: We ordered pancakes, biscuits & gravy, hash browns, bacon, eggs, and the western omelette. Everything was delicious. I usually like my bacon crispy, but this was so good! Service: Our server was friendly and attentive. We did have to wait a little long to pay, but overall everyone was very kind. Atmosphere: It was not crowded and the place is very inviting with cute little decor everywhere. The bathrooms are singles (one male and one female). They were gross but felt outdated and slightly neglected. This is the only reason for a three star in atmosphere instead of a five."

- Dakotah D.

"Libby was our waitress and provide excellent service to us. The potato soup was delicious. The grilled cheese was over done on the outside and thebcheese wasnt melted on the inside. The grits were very thick and unappetizing. Through it all Libby was gracious and kind."

- Kisha T.
