This Zaxby's is new and they are alittle different than the rest I eat at. They still need training in the way they serve the dishes and amount of food as well as customer service. They have a laid back attitude.

From the time I walked in, Leslie and the rest of the staff made me feel welcome. As it states on their uniforms, the service is indeed "Fast and Friendly". I had a cup of fresh hot coffee sitting in front of me in less than a minute. Ordered the steak and eggs and was very pleased. You could cut the strip steak with a knife. The eggs were perfect and the biscuit and gravy was tasty. Go ahead and give them a try! You won't be disappointed!

Hamburgers and chicken tenders are to die for!!! We called in our order and it was waiting on us when we got there. I'm gluten intolerant and will make an exception for a Justin's cheese burger. Don't let this little place (if you blink you might miss it) fool you, they can pump out some amazing food. I heard that their fried chicken and Philly subs are to die for, but I can't break away from their cheese burger. My daughter orders a cheese burger and she doesn't like hamburgers but she loves Justin's. Every time she comes up from Savannah we go to Justin's. This pass weekend we had them to deliver it. We were camping and that was nice. The kids loved it and wanted more. My daughter also likes their onion rings. I hear they have a lots of good food to choose from, I can't break away from their cheese burger. Go to this place you won't regret it! ;-)It's a quit place in high falls that will get over looked if not careful. I hope this helps the hamburger lovers out there!!

Huddle House

We're Always Cookin' There's something about a freshly made meal, prepared just for you. Maybe it's a waffle sundae to celebrate the day you get your braces off, or a plate full of loaded hash browns after a Saturday morning soccer game. Whatever the occa

I don't try many Huddle Houses, but this seemed our best bet for a Sunday morning. When we got here at 8:30 am it was crowded, but one table was free so we sat right down. Service was prompt. We both had omelets. My Western omelet was better than average but had a slice of American cheese melted that I could have done without. My friend had the mega bacon omelet, which was good. Came with grits, which were watery. I would come here again, but might try Lunch Box first, if it is still open. Several Jackson restaurants listed here aren't (Hunters, Mustard Seed).

I thoroughly enjoyed my dinner experience. This is the small town experience where everybody, including other patrons, were very friendly. The wait staff seemed to go over and above to make me feel welcome. The food was good and plentiful.

Hunter's Cafe

Reviewed By Tony M

We opted for the daily special which included one meat (choices included fried chicken and meatloaf), two vegetables (choices included collard or turnip greens, blackeyed peas, lima beans, mashed potatoes) a bread (cornbread or roll) and drink (coffee, sweet tea, or sweet lemonade). Charge was about $7 each. Using a debit or charge card entails a fee (I think 50 cents). We arrived about 3:00 in the afternoon, so the restrooms (both of which were out of paper) and tables reflected a rush that had not been totally cleaned up. You walk to a serving line and make your choices. Our food was good, The meatloaf was better than the fried chicken, which was dry (which I like-you may not). We chose mashed potatoes, lima beans and blackeyed peas. Bread was included but left off, so we asked for it. It may be that as first timers we missed it.

Hotdog House

Reviewed By SharonB3921

We chose this restaurant during our stay at High Falls State Park because this restaurant offered outdoor seating so we could take Emerson, our doxie, with us. The atmosphere was a little shabby, but the food was hot and well-prepared. Despite the name, this is not a fast food establishment, but a full menu restaurant that offers complete country style dinners.

We were walking around the Square looking at all the Halloween decorations and decided to have lunch. I remember seeing Jimmy’s when I picked up a prescription closeby, so we decided to check it out. We started out with the fried green tomatoes. They were cooked perfectly...lightly breaded and fried just right. It was a healthy portion....I could have made that my lunch! My husband had the cheeseburger and said that it was the best cheeseburger that he’s ever had! His previous favorite had been one in New Orleans. I had the baked flounder sandwich and steamed cauliflower....just hard core delicious! We had a super nice server, too! We will definitely be back and we are going to tell all of our neighbors about it as well!

The Blind Pig BBQ

Been open about two years in a location that was formerly "Mathis Brothers BBQ". Excellant ribs, pork, beef, stew. Clean, friendly, good service. Open Wed thru Sun.

Our Lions Club met here for our monthly meeting. I had the turkey barbecue and beans. I always order this and it is always good. The beans are the best that I have ever had. The sauce on the sandwich is mild & tasty. The are other sauces to choose from if you like it hot. The home fries are very good, too. The restaurant is clean and the owners & staff are friendly & attentive. Looking forward to my next visit.

I've had BBQ all over the USA, and I wouldn't return to this restaurant if they were giving it away free. The meat was dry and you had to soak it with a vinegary "sauce", the slaw wasn't any better. The selection on the menu was very limited; pork sandwich, pork plate ".. Who ever heard of a BBQ restaurant without ribs, beef, potatoe salad, baked beans? Here, the choices are Brunswick stew, and Cole slaw with a plate.
