At first we were a bit hesitant about trying this place out, but don't let the look of it fool you. When we entered we were... greeted immediately. The food we ordered came out pretty quick. I had red beans, rice and smoke sausage which also came with aside. I chose the potato salad which was not bad at all. The red beans was seasoned well and quite delicious and sausage friedjust right! Might I add, it was not Blue Runners either :) . My mom had a breaded fried pork chop with her and said it tastedgood as well. My daughter had fried shrimp and fries which was tasty. Overall, it was a good lunch stop for us that left us allsatisfied and full. Lastly, i don't know her name, but thank you for continuously checking on us at the table and making sure wewere doing fine and if we needed anything else. If in the area, I recommend you give them a try! Read more
I think I may have found my newest binge eat place! I saw so many great plates of food walk past me to other guests that I want... to try them all. Seriously you will order and see something else and think you ordered wrong. Trust me you didn't. Everything isgreat and is plentiful. You will leave full and happy. I swear if Guy Fieri ruins another place we are going to run him out oftown. Seating is limited since it is a small place. Read more
While sick I was in desperate need of some soup. I remembered this place from years ago and picked up some crawfish and corn... bisque as well as chicken noodle. Not only were the portions sizable and reasonable but these were two of the best soups I haveever had!!! This will be my go-to from now on. Five stars all the way around! PS Their trout almondine with brabant potatoes isscrumptious! Read more
What can I say about the Hobbnobber Cafe? OMG! So good!! And the portions were so much more than I expected. Let's just say I... have enough for a full lunch tomorrow. I had the combo platter. The fish were perfectly flaky and the shrimp were tail-less.Finally a restaurant that removes the tails before frying the shrimp! The side of potato salad was perfect, no onions or pickles(there is a side choice of potato salad or regular salad). My son had the Tuesday special of trout almondine, which came outfried-which was a little shocking because most restaurants grill it. But it was a larger sized portion of trout, covered withthe slivered almonds (and I'm not sure if they had a sauce on it or not, but it looked really good.) And I overheard a regularcustomer telling her aunt that she could get it grilled or blackened if she didn't want it fried. But as this was out first timethere we didn't know what to expect, but we know now. I was a little taken aback by the price, but after I added it all up(because we had an appetizer of mozzarella sticks and I added an order of their Braland Potatoes), I realized their prices arejust as awesome as their food! They also have daily specials (Tuesday-trout almondine, meatloaf and mashed potatoes, somethingelse I can't remember), that are reasonably priced, with portions large enough to satisfy this hefty appetite. ???? We willdefinitely be back!! Read more
Man the food is outstanding here! I got the crab cakes pasta and it was so very good!!! My husband got the gumbo which was uber... authentic and full of flavor. He also got the Hobnobber poboy and the roast beef was to die for. The only reason I?m giving them4 instead of 5 stars was because they forgot his potato salad and my side salad. But the flavor of the food and the friendlinessof the staff more than made up for it. Read more
Ordered a Caesar Salad and a grilled tuna. Got grilled tuna with broccoli and tomatoes which was good, but did not get my Caesar... salad, which was the first thing I said. I got a side salad with iceberg lettuce, carrots and purple cabbage, none of which Iwanted nor are on my diet. They gave me Caesar dressing with it. The lettuce was brown and even black on some of the edges. Ithrew it away. All I was looking forward to was a Caesar salad and I didn?t even get it. Read more
