My cousins introduced my sister and I to this place on a return trip from Panama City Beach, FL to Rome, GA. It was a tiny bit out of the way but well worth it, and I can’t wait to go back. We just left glorious food at the beach, but it had nothing on this place. We had the best broiled and fried seafood, and one HUGE, tender delicious ribeye. The prices are fantastic, too.

We’re hooked! We’ve been here three times in about 2 weeks and can’t get enough! The fried seafood combo isn’t too shabby, but definitely not as good as their grilled shrimp. I could live without the buttery substance they throw on the shrimp, but it’s bursting with flavor. We’ve enjoyed the grilled shrimp on multiple occasions and also their steak. The steak is HUGE and it’s pretty yummy, but a little saltier than I’d normally like. If you get there in time, try their cheese grits. I don’t even like cheese grits normally, but I could eat theirs everyday. The service is always friendly and they’re always super appreciative of our business. I’m sure we will be back before too long!

This is a smaller, privately owned, off the main road kind of restaurant where usually only locals or repeat visitors know about, but this is a gem. Anytime my father or I eat here we almost always get the grilled quail which is the best I’ve eaten anywhere. Juicy, flavorful, and just plain good. The other food is great too and if you are within an hour of this place it is worth the drive. Wait times can be long and they have a smaller than usual dining area, but the food is awesome. If you want better wait times go mid week or an hour or so before closing, but they are not open everyday and close for some holidays so call before you make the drive. You can’t go wrong eating here though, especially if you like quail or steak.

We were camping at the Kolomoki Mounds state park and decided to check out this local restaurant after seeing an ad in a brochure at the park. Its a bit away from the park(30 minutes) and its definitely off the beaten path for anyone but locals. I would say if your already in the area it is the premier local sit down restaurant and worth a gander and a meal. The ambiance and outdoor patio was a fantastic back country dining experience especially considering the mild weather that evening. The indoor restaurant is air conditioned. The countryside experience is complete with full tables of locals on a Saturday evening and mild mannered and sleepy hounds dozing under bushes and in the yard. We had the quail, crab claws, scallops and catfish. I believe that the quail was the best I have ever had. Even better than any I have had at fancy dress up restaurants in Atlanta. It was tender and spiced perfectly. Quails are gamey and can be difficult to cook but this establishment does this meat JUSTICE! The crab claws, scallops and catfish were breaded just right and were nice and crunchy and FRESH! I was pleasantly surprised at the freshness of the seafood. I speculate that the relative proximity to the gulf coast must be the reason. I must also mention that the salad isn’t fancy but the blue cheese dressing is pretty darn tasty. I am not normally a fan of cheese grits, I typically like mine plain, but the cheese grits were really good and they did not overload it with the cheese like most other southern food restaurants would. Their beer selection is standard domestic only(as it should be for this establishment, serving import beers would ruin the experience imho). Be warned they only accept cash and check!!!(this also suits the place so well) Also, be aware that they cook to order and the food will take longer than what you might expect. I would recommend that you relax, chat with your dinner companions and take in the Georgia countryside pace of things. The food is absolutely worth the wait! If I were in the area I would definitely come back again.
