★★★★☆ 4.0 Darlene Kemp · Dec 2025

This interesting restaurant was recommended by a friend. We were told it was tiny, and it is. It's a great mom and pop restaurant full of good food. The tomato basil soup was very good. The chicken salad sandwich is chocked full of chicken salad, grapes and pecans. The interior of this store is pretty old and a little bit run down but it's very clean and the employees do a great job of serving all of the customers.

Where do I start.. Not a big soup guy but found out about this place last week and I've been three times within 7 days. It hits every single time. The people are nice and have fast service. I'll be a regular here soon.

Love this place. Food is always great! Just wish they had 2-3 unique vegetarian soups regularly. Sometimes there isn’t one I can have besides basic veggie soup which isn’t as exciting as the others.. I always seem to miss the unique veggie options by a day or two. Still, love them!!!

We had lunch here today and the food was amazing. My husband and I both had the hearty vegetable soup. I had the awesome grill cheese sandwich and he had the Philly steak and cheese on a toasted bun. I would give this an additional star if I could.

I needed to eat something simple. We chose to come here for a soup and sandwich. I had the cream of mushroom soup and a chicken salad on Texas Toast. The soup tasted good. There was a strange taste to it but that was what made it delicious (almond milk?). But the sandwich bread was fresh and chicken salad was delicious. The Luzianne Sweet Tea was weak though. I think it was either watered down or the ice water was stale and I know Luzianne Sweet Tea cause it's the best! The guy who took our order was nice. The only complaint is the price for the soups, sandwich and combos. $22 for 2 soups, 1 sandwich and 1 tea is way too much. We could have went to Shoneys for that price (or slightly more).
