We were lucky to stumble upon this place for lunch in Lexington. The country fried steak with brown gravy and onions was a well-balanced homemade treat. The coleslaw was perfectly balanced, and the fried okra was very lightly hand breaded for a light crisp outside yet soft and flavorful inside--it was the best fried okra I've ever had. The cheese stick appetizer was a generous portion of six large fried cheese sticks, and was very tasty. The buttermilk pie for dessert was excellent and the pecan pie dessert was good as well. We were served by Gladys herself. She was witty, a bit, sassy, and entertaining, making the whole lunch experience a lot of fun. This will be our go to spot every time passing through Lexington in the future.

I had the good fortune to find this restaurant while passing through Lexington. The food was so fantastic and Gladys is an absolute joy! I don't live near here but I might travel back through just to eat here again. I do believe it was the best coleslaw I've ever eaten.
