Fast and friendly service, generous portions, good flavor. Menu is quite extensive. I’m looking forward to trying the jambalaya next time. If it’s as delicious as it sounds, I’ll definitely bump this up to 5 stars. 4 stars just because I found both the biscuit and cornbread and the eggs to be on the drier side. Also want to try the beignets next time! Bonus points for serving Dune coffee, another SB favorite

I discovered this little gem on Google Maps. I ordered the seafood gumbo which I would recommend. Loaded with different kinds of seafood including scallops and shrimp in a brown savory soup with rice and green onions. A biscuit or cornbread is included. It’s served in a wide but relatively shallow bowl, which is fine because it’s served piping hot and it needs to cool. Cheerful service, nice room. I will definitely return.

Four of us were seated at a window booth at this diner-like restaurant on a Sunday morning without a wait. There’s an extensive breakfast menu of eggs cooked every which way, waffles, pancakes and more. I opted for the fruit and granola bowl, while everyone else had eggs. I would’ve preferred more yogurt and less granola (which was simply honey toasted oats, nothing else) but the fresh fruit was plentiful. Everyone else enjoyed their eggs. Had a leisurely meal with attentive service and didn’t feel rushed, even though there was a line by the time we were leaving.

Great/fresh food as always. I love the jambalaya with 2 overeasy eggs on the top. A nice way to start the day, a breakfast that makes lunch unnecessarily.

Delicious comfort food, I got the huevos ranchero it had a twist chorizo, rice & beans in a huge layer like a volcano on fried corn tortillas. Hubby enjoyed his bacon & eggs.

Fast and friendly service. The coffee was good and hot. I ordered the shrimp and grits which was really good and my husband got biscuits and gravy and he said it was good. They make substitutions here which was nice, and the portions are really big. Definitely check this place out.

Very disappointed with my breakfast. I Ordered the chicken fried steak and eggs the gravy on the chicken fried steak must have come out of a can because there’s no way that was a homemade country gravy absolutely no flavor whatsoever. and Saying for the rest of the breakfast eggs hash grounds the entire meal was a disappointment, couldn have been a one-off but still not satisfied at all. After explaining to the waitress my dissatisfaction when she inquired about my meal she offered To replace the meal I settled for a couple of pancakes which were a disappointment as well but like I said, maybe it was just a one-off bad day for the cooks. But the service was good and the waitress very nice.
