“ If you haven't eaten here before you need to! Some of the best Catfish around! If you know where better catfish is then please let me know. I've also tried the rib tips and the oxtail. Most of the sides are the absolutely amazing. I would only consider a couple of them as just "okay" (compared to everything else) I eat here every time I'm in the area. I'd probably be broke if I lived closer. ”
“ Ribs came clean off the bone. 3 big ribs w 2 side and cornbread for 20 was pretty good. The sides were a little mid (Mac n cheese rice). They were missing something to make it great. Great selections and fast service. Would definitely recommend this place ”
“ I'm a vegetarian/vegan, so I went there skeptical and was pleased with the amount of vegetables without pork. I would recommend this place to vegetarians. However, if you are a meat eater, you will be in Heaven. I bring my crew here 2 to 3 times a week. Awesomeness in good home-cooked meals ”
“ This place is such a wonderful little gem. The fried chicken is absolutely fantastic. Golden, crispy, well seasoned, and juicy. The owner and staff are very friendly and welcoming. I'm definitely going back for seconds and thirds. ”
“ Tried it for the first time after reading the reviews. It was really good and hit the spot. I had the fried catfish with cabbage and candied yams and cornbread. The fried catfish tasted like it did need a little more seasoning on it, but overall, it was good with the hot sauce. I would recommend this place if you're looking for good soul food. The customer service was also really good. I did spend 18 and some change on the plate. ”
“ We came here after hiking the Sweetwater trail. To my surprise, the food was fantastic. It was authentic, fresh and delicious. You can even see the smoker beside the restaurant. We had the fried catfish, ribs, and barbecue chicken. All of it was delicious. The mac and cheese was good. The collard greens was good. The cabbage was excellent. The owner was working on this day and was very nice. The place is clean. ”
“ Excellent all around. Currently staying at a hotel for business and wanted a home cooked meal... I found it here!! When you walk in, it even smells like my granny's kitchen from my childhood!! ”
“ Some of the reviews had me nervous, because we know good soul food (having grown up in the Chi & the Nap and lived all over the United States) but being in town for just the weekend- Granny’s hit the spot! The service was welcoming, friendly, and attentive! Even after our meal, they checked on us! We had just hit up Pascal’s yesterday (which was really good), but Granny’s fried catfish, fried whiting and mac and cheese were more on point (sorry- just facts)!!! The squash, cabbage, rice and gravy, and green beans were perfect! The only thing that was a little over salted was the fried okra (2 shakes less and it would’ve been perfect)! We can’t comment on the dessert yet because we are too full to eat them now, but we did order the peach cobbler, pound cake, and strawberry cake. Based off of what we’ve had so far, we will be back! UPDATE- my husband couldn’t leave without taking a bite of the strawberry cake. He said it’s delicious! ”
