Exceptional very exceptional experience from walking in the door to walking back out! Me and my wife have been wanting to eat here and finally got the opportunity this afternoon! The ladies serving the food were as sweet nice and helpful as could be! The food was delicious just absolutely what I wanted and needed! Reminded me of growing up and eating grandma’s cooking! Food was seasoned just right and cooked perfectly! If you are looking for good down home cooking look no further! This will be our regular spot from now on!! Everything is priced very reasonable the quality and quantity is 10/10.
Definitely recommend!

A comfortable dining area greets you when you enter the restaurant.
Nice folks working the cafeteria line.
It’s clean and well run.
So many delicious choices from the main courses, the scrumptious sides, roll or cornbread pancake, and tempting desserts.
Even the choices of drinks available.
Great food, great portions and an even greater value.
I am so glad I went and I am grateful to the folks who work here for making my stay so pleasant! Update April 2024 We got the fried chicken and two sides for $13.25! It also comes with a cornbread pancake or muffin or roll.
We got the cornbread pancake.
The fried chicken was perfect.
The turnip greens were tender and delicious.
Fried apples and sweet potatoes were both great.
Even the cornbread pancake was another good choice.
The food tastes so familiar because it’s homemade with solid ingredients and a nice recipe.
I was protecting my food when I was eating it because it was so good and I didn’t want to share it with my dining companion.
That’s when you know it’s good! It was another perfect southern cooked meal!

Oh my goodness!!! 5 stars doesn't do this place justice .
My husband and I have been wanting to eat here for so long and finally, on a lazy Sunday, made it here.
Soul food at its finest!! I can't say enough good things about this place.
Cafeteria style eatery.
The best southern main courses with 2 sides.
Oh, AND delicious cornbread.
There were so many things I wanted to eat.
ONE OF EACH PLEASE :) I decided on the fried fish.
PHENOMENAL AT THE LEAST!! I ordered turnip greens and creamed potatoes with gravy.
The greens were outstanding and the creamed potatoes were literally to die for.
So buttery and the gravy on point!! My husband got creamed corn with his fish and when I tell you it was the best, I mean it literally may have been the best I've ever eaten.
They also have a plethora of desserts to choose from.
Pie, cobbler, cheesecake, banana puddin, etc.
The staff were friendly and efficient.
The restaurant was very clean and the atmosphere was one of down home southern soul food persona.
We will definitely be back to try one of the several other dishes that caught my eye and tickled my taste buds.
GREAT JOB SWETTS!! A piece of Nashville history at its best.
