Hometown Kitchen: Reviews & Ratings
I had a fried pork chop which had a good taste but was on the thin side and slightly overcooked. The yams were delicious ! Service wasn't impressive, the young man at the counter didn't seem to care much and there was no follow up after getting our food either. The atmosphere was fine but nothing special. I would go again and we did have a good meal overall.
I had grilled pork chops, squash casserole and green beans. The pork chops were cooked to perfection and and tender. The service was friendly and it was a great place. I enjoyed it. My husband had liver and he said it was delicious too. Please go here when you can to support this restaurant.
Best restaurant in Millbrook. It’s truly a family restaurant and I love all the scriptures and family pictures on the walls. Special shout out to Dee( who I went to school with) and Miss Lynn for always taking good care of me and my family. Colossians 3:23-24 Robert “Rocky” Kilpatrick
Food was excellent, fried catfish , fried okra, Mac and cheese and fried pork chop was really good. Good southern cooking
I had the beef tips with green beans and some bomb Mac and cheese. And I had some lovely conversations, and was seriously treated like family. Looking forward to coming back on my next trip - thank you so much!
This place is AMAZING! We were greeted when we came in the door. Everyone in the place was super friendly. I had white meat fried chicken, mac & cheese, black-eyed peas and cornbread. If I was going to complain about anything, I prefer my black-eyed peas with more juice so I can dunk my cornbread. But that is not really a complaint. The seasoning for the black-eyed peas were perfect. The fried chicken was not greasy and had great seasoning. I like my mac & cheese creamy and this was. My wife asked the big guy behind the counter if the catfish was good, he reassured her by offering a money back guarantee. She had fried catfish, black-eyed pea and green beans. She said her catfish was perfectly cooked and seasoned. She really enjoyed it and her veggies. My wife is super sensitive when it comes to food being over seasoned and she could not say enough about how good her food was. Dude’s money back guarantee is safe.
We were not impressed with the food here. The lady taking the orders was extra friendly with everyone who came in. We thoroughly appreciated her service! She recommended everything on the menu and said we couldn't go wrong! Our taate buds did not agree, though. The best thing about the place was her service! She took much pride in promoting the place... but you can't please everybody.
Hands down best collard greens I've ever had!! (Fresh not canned). Catfish, pork chops, hamburger steak. It was all very delicious. If you are looking for some classic southern food highly recommend.
