Customer Reviews

★☆☆☆☆ 1.0 Jennifer Lewis · Oct 2025

This was my first time trying this place and I am super disappointed. I haven’t heard a lot about it, but the little I heard said the food was amazing. I definitely disagree. I ordered the fried green tomatoes and a kids fried fish. My food was fried in burnt grease. The only thing I could taste was burnt grease. The fries were soggy and not cooked all the way. I will add photos to show. I ordered my food to go and the service wasn’t the worst nor was it the best.

The White Chocolate Bread Pudding is delectable…absolutely outstanding in every way! I enjoyed the smash-burger with fries too…looking forward to another lunch there soon! Great, friendly and personable wait staff…

★★★★☆ 4.0 Autumn Bliss · Feb 2026

Overall, solid experience. Popped in for lunch, probably spent an hour and a half in the restaurant. Lots of space,cute decor, radio not too loud; but the service was slower than I would normally expect. Quick to be greeted and get drinks out, slow on everything else. They had a spinach and artichoke dip featured, other than a little salt and pepper it was pretty good. Food in general was pretty good, lots of variety in the menu, would probably come back.

★★★★☆ 4.0 Barry Esnault · Jan 2025

Pork Chops, Catfish, and Hamburger Steak have all been great. Staff is super friendly, and the food comes out quick, hot, and delicious. Decor is a little odd, but the restaurant is always clean and organized. I have a huge sweet tooth and feel the 45 minute drive for me is worth it, just for their bread pudding. It is scrumpdelicioso. Do yourself a favor and stop in.

Blake White catered my wedding on 11/11/23 and he was wonderful! He met me at the venue a few months before the wedding to map out the set-up and ensure we had everything we needed. He coordinated the outdoor tents, chairs, tables, linens, and even suggested the DJ! Now let’s talk about the food, IT WAS DELICIOUS! Everyone kept asking who we had cater because the food was so good. Blake was so easy to work with and managed the space so well to fit what we needed. He was a great communicator and took a lot of stress away from this bride! The bartender even fluffed my train on the isle! Absolutely wonderful and kind person. I 1000% recommend either eating at Iron Horse or using Blake as a caterer for your upcoming event. Wouldn’t have been the same without all that he did for us and I am for
