What People Are Saying
from Google"An Oxford classic for a reason. Great southern cooking and great service as well and of course the location on the square is awesome. My first piece of catfish had some bones in it and they promptly brought out a new one for me. The fried pickles are great too"
"We came to look at the campus and asked for places to eat and this place was highly recommended. This was our first time here and it did not disappoint. Our server Trace was phenomenal and gave us an amazing experience. We asked what he recommended from the menu and he said the catfish was something that is the most popular and that’s what I got. It was wonderful. Best I have ever had. My wife got the meatloaf and it was great too. We will definitely come back when we are in the area again."
"Love this place! It's such an iconic part of the square in Oxford! Great food and great service! It feels like you are stepping into your parents dining room. Warm and inviting. The food is down home, stick to your ribs kind of food. Great burgers. I love the chicken fried steak! This is the kind of place you look forward to going back to. If you haven't been here yet...go in and check it out."
"Laid back atmosphere, friendly workers and great food! What else you need? The catfish, fried okra and mac n cheese were really good. Parking is tough at lunch time but the it was worth it..."
"No. No and Noooo!!! I was told that this place seasons their southern food so good. NO! Dumping salt on something is not seasoning your food. The greens were too salty to eat. The pork chops were paper thin and very salty. The Mac N Cheese reminds me of the cafeteria Mac and cheese n elementary school… just noodles and cheese. No flavor and very bland. The cornbread had nice flavor but it was near burnt, dry and hard. My gravy was stiff. The purple hull peas were good and service was friendly. I wasted money today. 😭"
