★★★★★ 5.0 Brianne Starkey · Feb 2026

All the servers were awesome, kind, planned seating, condiments, flatware ahead of local regulars pulling into the parking lot. Not alot of food options, but buffet was worth it! The name of the restaurant is cleaver. They have tables, booths, long tables for large groups or for community seating. And they have a wood original round top, claw-foot table that reminded me of long ago. For Those that can fix it, the bathroom desperately needs an upgrade.

We are early-to-rise travelers and were looking for a place that was open for breakfast. When the word “Diner” is in the title you should know what to expect. The crowded parking lot at 6:00 a.m. also confirmed our expectations: this was gonna be a great breakfast hangout. We were greeted right away by our waitress who promptly served us hot coffee. We both ordered the egg , meat, grits and toast option. It was served quickly and precisely like we asked: Eggs were perfectly over-medium; bacon and sausage delicious; and grits/hashbrowns done right. The Dixie Diner is not fancy but when you’re hungry and want a good, cooked-to-order breakfast at a reasonable price in a clean setting, this is the place to go. This little hidden gem is a place we will come back to on our frequent trips down

A very nice diner filled with nicer food! The food was amazing, I did the buffet and left happy for sure. The atmosphere is great as well as clean. If you're looking for good country food, then this is the place!

The dinner buffet is great! Salad fixings and hot entrees. Beef, roast pork, fried chicken, mashed potatoes w/gravy, candied sweet potatoes, fried okra, and dessert choices!! Food was good, old time cooking. Very tasty and inexpensive. Only $33.00 for two people including soft drinks. Will definitely be back if I’m in town again!!

This place is fantastic! I had the breakfast buffet and everything was delicious. The staff is fantastic, friendly and inviting. They were putting out the lunch buffet as I was leaving and I sooo wish that I could have stayed for that! It’s definitely worth going out of your way to go there!
