| - Three stars for the shop, which is pretty nice but the selection is way too limited to make a special trip for it. We bought home made sausages (recommended!), country ham, tomatoes, bread etc.
NO STARS for the so called "restaurant". There's nothing "Southern Style" nor anything restaurant about vinyl floors, plastic silverware and the help shouting for us to pick up our order in an completely empty restaurant.
The only soup was chicken, we passed. I wanted to order the ribeye steak sandwich but found out that all the meat is cooked on the greasy stainless flat griddle, no thanks! I ordered the Italian sub, mostly rubbery boiled ham with one slice of salami and one slice of capaccola. I threw half of it in the garbage, even Subway does it better! I got an order of handcut fries, could have been ok but they were grossly undercooked. My partner had the grilled Portobello wrap, she thought was "not too bad" (or too good) but didn't finish it either. I found it very bitter, maybe because of the Asiago. Over at the next table the people got two salads, they were topped with day-glo orange processed cheese.
All in all not a pleasant experience, even the coffee was terrible and the cups were plasticized styrofam, why? What this dump reminded me was how crap food was back in the 70s. I was glad to high tail it back to civilization.
