I took my grandfather to Cecilias bar and grill for his Birthday . The staff were amazing and kind. Great conversations with fellow patrons. The young man waiting on us was very respectful. He suggested the catfish. We took him up on it. The fish was amazing. Great seasoning. Large selection of adult beverages. The owner was proud of the history of the building and his enthusiasm was great. They have a wall of pictures of the history of the building. Only negative was they were out of their famous banana pudding. Gives us a reason to come back. Don’t hesitate to give this place a try.

The greens, mac and cheese, hush puppies, and fish are perfect! Good flavor, cooked perfect. The greens have a good smoke flavor and pork cook in. The fish is breaded in cornmeal with plenty of seasonings cooked just right. The mac and cheese is baked, and plenty of cheese is just perfect. The pups are the best I’ve had in a while.
Don’t sleep on this place!

It’s nice to have a new restaurant in town. It’s about 1.5 miles away from the campground which was very convenient. All the food was great. Grilled cheese and fries; slaw burger and fries, and the Philly cheese steak sandwich which was extremely tender along with hush puppies. Of course had to get banana pudding for desert which to die for. It taste more like creme Brule with bananas. It was delicious. Service was absolutely amazing. Very attentive server.
Pointers:
1) slaw on the burger does have the old Suzy Q feeling but with the banana peppers it gives a twist on the taste.
2) Food is served in a basket
3) The serving of banana pudding is large and very rich. Be sure to save room.
4) Bill came to fifty dollars not including tip.
5) They accept amex
6) Nice atmosphere
Suggestions:
1) Needs more slaw on the burger
2) food served on plates would be a nice addition

An absolutely delightful experience on a calm Sunday afternoon. While the other places were filled up I was well surprised to find this delightful and comfortable grill and bar nearby. I highly suggest the Eggin Around Burger. It’s perfectly cooked, moist meat paired with the egg is an absolute delight and really should be one of the highlights of their menu!!! Their waffles are so soft and fluffy and simply to die for. If I lived closer, I would be here at least once a week!! I can’t wait to come back by and try out other popular menu items.

Wanted to try something new, regretted it. Ordered fried pickles that no one could stomach. The pickle was completely dehydrated, it was so salty it burnt my lips and they brought 2 orders instead of 1, still had to pay for it. They do not have draft beer, which is fine but the waiter said they did, then brought bottles- had to pay for that. The chair gave out on my father towards the end of the meal, and we waited over an hour for our meals to come out. Only Ranch dressing available. The fish was decent, just super thin and tasted like all the other fried stuff. None of this would’ve been an issue because I thought it would be reasonably priced but somehow, the bill was 150$- 185 after tip. That’s the moment we decided to never return- we could’ve had grade A food and much better service for that price anywhere else. My stomach is still churning today- the food has a homemade feel- but its more of a “straight out of the can” type, or “lets see what we can cook before it goes bad” type homemade.
I gave 2 stars for service because it may have been the waiter’s first table in his life and we want to support any youth in their first job. Thanks but no thanks- we didn’t really feel welcomed there anyway. (only 1 other family seated)

Food was awesome! We’ve been wanting to stop by ever since they opened but never had a chance. So glad we did! I had the fish dinner with green beans & mac and cheese and my dad had wings with street corn. All of it was so good & fresh. But I especially recommend the catfish, wings, and mac and cheese. Also the sweet tea was perfect & fresh and our waitress was so kind and helpful. Thank you!

Wonderful comfort food, even the desert! (Recommend the catfish dinner, soup, fried pork chop, and banana pudding) The atmosphere is very nice, cozy, and clean.
Our only complaint was that the server seemed a bit young and inexperienced, and we had to walk over to the bar to request a few things, as he hadn’t returned to the table for a while. I’m happy to support this local restaurant,
and will be returning!

Me and my wife stopped in and were immediately greeted and told to sit where we wanted. Our server was younger but very friendly and was able to take our orders quickly. I ordered the Catfish Dinner with Mac and Cheese and Cole Slaw and my wife had the 2pc Fried Chicken Dinner with the Hushpuppies and Potato salad. We also got an order of the Lemon Pepper wings as recommended by some friends. ALL of the food was amazing. The Catfish and Mac were leagues above most others we’ve eaten, and only barely shined brighter than the rest of the food, which was all made perfectly. The owner and the server were both very easy to talk with, and checked on us often. The server even recommended we try the Slaw Burger on the next visit, which will definitely happen. Some of the best food you’ll find and a great place to be.

The food was delicious and the drinks tasty. I would suggest making a reservation for the weekends. It was busy. They have a nice outside patio as well. Only drawback is parking. It can be hard to find so leave a little early.
