4.0 of 5 stars. Pretty dang good. Service was a little, shall we say, proletarian? I could have been at Wendy's. The mashed potatoes are insane. Everything here is delicious, really. After my last and final...

4.0 of 5 stars. Hoovers is always a safe bet. I don't go as much as I'd like because the entrees I enjoys are not of the low calorie kind. A previous reviewerxstated that she over heard employees speaking poorly of...

3.0 of 5 stars. Yelp research is making my belly bigger! Not that I haven't ever been to Hoovers but we only go about once or twice a year. This place is a gut-busting, calorie bomb. If you know that going in, you...

4.0 of 5 stars. The Chicken Fried Steak was great! Also enjoyed the Grits, mashed taters and gravy, fried okra, and Sweet Tea. Since I am from California, I haven't had the pleasure of eating very much Southern Food...

2.0 of 5 stars. I don't get this place. As someone else said, "Soul food???" I don't think so. I know turnip greens and these aren't them. The ones I was served had clearly been spiked with sugar? This is a dish...

4.0 of 5 stars. I love to go here on Saturdays for their smothered pork chops. This is just good southern comfort food. It isn't gourmet, it isn't fancy, but it's good and hearty. Can't quite give them 5 stars...

4.0 of 5 stars. I've always liked Hoovers, but felt they were somewhat over-priced for what it is. That being said... I can't deny that their breakfasts are second to none. And the garlic cheddar grits are all you'd...
