Hot bar lunches that are delicious, priced fairly, and ready to go. The line is long but moves fast at peak lunchtime. Portions are great and there is a whole smorgasbord of sides to choose from. Menu changes daily. It's a strange vibe having lunch in what feels like a package and grocery store but there is a great selection of wine and beer there. They bus the tables and have good service as they are staffed for the crazy rush of customers that know what's up so be sure to leave a tip even though there isn't full table service.

We came for brunch and while we had a delicious breakfast we could smell the lunch cooking... it smelled so good too! They have Delicious options for breakfast, lunch, and dinner cooked fresh on-site. This is a restaurant/ mini supermarket/ butcher /and wine cellar - with a very large selection of wine. You can dine in or Cafe style on the sidewalk or take your food to go. Staff is friendly and very helpful.

Ate here for the first time on Wednesday march 13th. Came in around 1:15 so it wasn’t crazy full. I ordered the fried chicken breast with green beans and mac and cheese as a side. Food was pretty good although my chicken breast needed more seasoning. My best friend’s fish was very well seasoned. I like the atmosphere here and seating is available outside or inside. Very rude employee working there however. Light skinned guy wearing a cap and busing tables did not want to be at work. He was passing by and I decided to ask him how the slices of cake tasted. He did not stop walking and I had to say excuse me like three times before he finally stopped, glanced back, mad as heck, and gave me the nastiest look and, said in a smart tone, “ of course it is” . Then he just walked off. Totally unacceptable behavior and uncalled for. I ended up not buying any cake because of his nasty attitude and left.

First visit and learned this establishment is a local spot for homestyle cooking and/or wine bar. 🍷 So many options to choose from - casseroles, cold and hot bar. Make it an outing and meet with friends for lunch or an early happy hour. You may also pick up groceries here to take home. We visited on a weekday midday for lunch around 1:30pm and the selections were half gone. There was a sign that sandwiches were not currently available. Nonetheless, there are so many other options to choose from. We enjoyed our selection of 1) chicken marsala with sides and 2) a veggie plate. Surprisingly, everything was tasty. I highly recommend going with the jalapeño cornbread with your meal. Even if you choose not to eat from the hot bar, there are prepared salad options among other things as well. Desserts and beverages are also available. I look forward to returning and possibly trying the breakfast buffet on Saturday from 7-10am. In addition to visiting for the wine tastings on Thursdays. 🍷 Bon Appetite

This is NOT a Black-owned Soul Food restaurant even though it's in a prodomitly Black neighborhood. Disappointed is an understatement. Got this recommendation from our hotel for a good "soul food" place which couldn't be furest from the truth. Food was bland & unseasoned at best, green peas/green beans seemed poured right out the can, heated and served, meat/fish did look good & fresh but is flavorless, corn bread was dry and like hockey pucks, tarter sauce was not made from scratch and the sliced cake seemed to be box cake also not from scratch. Sandwiches 🥪 were not available despite a full list of them on the menu. And if you're ordering catering from here, the lemonade is NOT fresh squeezed, it's Minute Maid from the soda machine with a few pieces of old lemon slices, that are sitting out, on the counter, by the ice tea canisters, just dropped in the gallon jug & shaken up. Lastly, no one on the line was wearing gloves and was handling hot food. In short, this is basic cafeteria style food at a higher price.

This is a very popular locally owned place for lunch for workers from the Downtown area and Cloverdale. Parking is tight in this area so get there around 11:30 if you want to get a spot near the building. The restaurant offers a meat and three selection from a cafeteria-like service line as well as hot and cold sandwiches. There are usually about 4 or 5 meat selections to choose from and at least a dozen sides, all large, homemade and very, very good. The line moves quickly and the service is friendly. The sandwiches are very good also, and they have a wide assortment of baked goods from a nearby bakery. The restaurant has a lot of space and a great atmosphere. The tables are arranged among crates of wine. It's a wonderful place for lunch. Also Saturday breakfast is fabulous. I wish they had breakfast available every day!

Fantastic homestyle cooking! Quick for lunch, awesome little store with lots of alcohol options. Their fried fish batter was amazing and the cheesy broccoli was amazing. Definitely coming back!

A wonderful dining experience for lunch. Many options- we were a party for 8, with two toddlers. The choices were easy, everyone got what they wanted. Fried chicken, fish, hamburger steak and amazing sides. Great place to visit for lunch in Montgomery.
