We ordered the fried chicken special, catfish plate, and their fried ravioli appetizer.
I have to say, the food was fantastic and I regret not going sooner! The fried chicken was piping hot, crispy, and juicy! The special came with 4 pieces and two sides. The catfish bites were heaped on the plate, seasoned perfectly, and moist!! Both plates were $17, a great value for the portion size! The tea also deserved a special shout out, as it was nice and dark brewed with a good ratio of tea and water!
All in all, a fantastic restaurant in a lively bar setting. The food, value, and the service were all great. Definitely deserves a spot on your list to try out, located in Johnston City.

The food was amazing! The service was great. They were polite and happy and on top of it and the cook was even nice enough to come out and talk to us. It was a great experience. I haven’t had food from home since I left home and it reminded me of home. Recommend to try but not a family place.

Cheese curds with spaghetti marinara, fresh cut French fries, and a nice glass of coke with cherries. For being a bar they were very accommodating for a person that doesn’t drink. Carly was my bartender and took well care of me. They have live music weekly. Any venue that supports local music has my vote. 5 stars all dayyy

I had a lovely filet tonight. It was well seasoned, Great value and cooked to the perfect temperature. The onion rings were handcut and beer battered. I brought home a piece of their decadent chocolate cheese cake that was to die for. Photo of the dessert, steak wasn’t around long enough to take a picture.

We have been looking forward to stopping in. Had heard nothing but good things about the food. Had great service, there is plenty of parking and seating inside.
We decided on the chicken dinner and ordered a add on a side of their chicken and dumplings. The portions were very large. The chicken came out hot and juicy. The dumplings were on point. Mashed potatoes, gravy, choice of corn or green beans, and homemade bread.
The live entertainment a bonus, David and Deanna, were fantastic, enjoyed them very much. Wish we could have stayed for all of their set.
We are looking forward to returning to try some of their other menu options.

we were so excited to try this place ! called in 2 fried chicken dinners and a side of chicken n dumplings for pick up ! got there the place looked nice…bartenders were nice. $44. got food home..opened it all up.. almost everything was inedible. terrible. chicken was dark, old, dry. bread was stale and hard and dumplings were 2 clumps of flavored flour. the green beans were really good and the corn was good. so disappointed. when I reached out to the restaurant to tell them about and ask for a refund they wanted me to bring the food back…I told them I am not driving all the way back there….I sent them pictures of the food after I dug it out of the trash…no response…no refund….sad. so there it is.

Best food in between Johnson City in Marion, Illinois I mean the best food you can eat frog eggs, seafood, crab legs. I’ve been here all my life and finally a place that has good food. You can sit down and eat.

Editing to say that after my mother in law also talked to the owner, he agreed to make things right, on the house.
I will also say that the food tonight was excellent, along with the service.
We will come back again.
Went on 12/03/26 for a birthday dinner. There ended up being 13 of us. There were a few people at the bar and a few seated at other tables as well but definitely not 150 to 180 people in there. It took a long time to get our drinks, then those of us who had side salads got our salads. The waitress comes back with a fry tray and says she apologizes but they only have plastic forks at the moment, and that she promised that we would have regular silverware by the time our entrees came up. We did eventually get silverware but it took a while.
I ordered a steak with a baked potato with butter and shredded cheese on the potato. I never received the cheese. Others ordered steak sandwiches that had to be sent back because they were over cooked. One had a steak that was cooked on one side but barely saw a grill on the other side. One got chicken alfredo, and they didn’t even put the chicken in it. It was brought out in a bowl well after we got our meals. My steak was tough, as was my husband’s.
When I commented to the waitress that I never received my cheese, her only response was well I didn’t upcharge you for it so its ok. Sorry what? No, it wasn’t ok.
Also, the place was full of smoke from the grill. It was hard to breathe and burned our eyes, and we left smelling like we had been in the kitchen cooking our meals.
When my husband called to speak with the owner about it all, the owner proceeded to tell him that we were not at his establishment because they don’t use plastic cutlery. We proceeded to tell him that we were indeed there and picture proof of that. Then it changed to they had at least 150 people in there if they had ran out of metal silverware. No, I promise they did not have that many people in there while we were there. Our reservation was for 6 pm. We finally concluded our meal and left at approximately 8 pm. The salads were the best part of our entire meals. The cheapest meal any of us had was at least 15 bucks. Several of us left hungry because our meal was terrible.
The owner did NOT care about our complaints, argued with us and told us bad food and service happens.
10 out of 10 don’t recommend going there. If I could give it negative stars, i would. Its went downhill severely since the first time we were ever there. Now I see why, management sucks. I also feel bad for the employees.

Would have really liked to try the food because I have heard such great things…we waited without menus, drinks, or any communication for 25 minutes at least before walking out. Hopefully we can try it again and get some service.

First time trying this place & will not be back. I understand poor service if a place is busy, but it wasn’t busy & I had to go ask to be waited on after 15 minutes. Our waitress had 3 tables, one of which got up & left after they never received their food & was told their ticket was lost. Our waitress never came to check on us or refill our empty drinks, didn’t bring the side salad that came with the meal. Then when we had to ASK for her to come back so we could pay our bill & told her it was poor service, she tried to argue with us & became sarcastic. When we said we would not come back again, she said “I hope you don’t!!” The other waitress in there did seem very polite & apologied to us for the lack of service we received, but the one we had will not help your business at all. If you want to have a successful business, you may need to re-evaluate your staff!!!
