★★★★★ 5.0 Anthony Franklin · Nov 2018

Whenever we go to the Fort Colony, whether its for a fast meal, or with friends, or as family. We have always had excellent meals. The Food- for decades I have had most of their menu items. Some of our personal favorites are the deep fried chicken, and the their pork tenderloin. The Friday All You Can Eat fish. You can't go wrong with anything for the kids either. Now that I am able to eat from the Senior menu, it's as good as well. The bonus is you get a dessert. The Service: This is a full service restaurant, meaning that the staff work together to give you the best. We were seated immediately, our drinks arrived shortly after. We took our time deciding on what we liked. We shared and appetizer and the main. Which helped us from overindulging. The Atmosphere: As I said, over the years,

★★★★☆ 4.0 Todd Finch · Jun 2023

The people of Fort Colony were super nice and we were treated very well as customers. The food was good (had their breakfast). The place could definitely use some renovations to spruce up the atmosphere a bit. This is a quaint local place with a real local feel to it and the good hospitality that should accompany it. Also has a dessert counter of giant cinnamon rolls and pies to choose from, of which I did (cinnamon roll). Worth a visit for a wholesome experience.

This place looks like a hole in the wall but its food is really good. We got an omelette and breakfast skillet both were really good. You can choose between hash browns or sliced potatoes, I would highly recommend the sliced potatoes. Avoid their ranch at all costs as it was very gross. The pancakes are top notch and are some of the best ones I have ever had, definitely a must have.

★★★★★ 5.0 Romelia Canchola González · Dec 2025

It doesn’t matter if you think you’re full… YOU MUST try a cinnamon roll warmed up with the butter!!! Nice little place, excellent service and very good sized servings. Nice place to have conversation because there’s no loud annoying noises.

★★★☆☆ 3.0 Phillip Johnson · Jul 2023

Food was ok. Gravy was pretty good .Oct 3rd 2024, tried lunch, liver onions was pretty good. Mash potatoes & gravy was cold and taste processed . Corn was cold too. Mentioned it when I left, they told me a excuse.
