In one plate I got the best fried flounder I ever had, the best collard greens I ever had, and the best hush puppies I ever had. Waitress was fantastic also.Had the two piece fish dinner. More like two whales. Couldn't finish.

Been meaning to do a review on this place. Stumbled upon this place 1 day for lunch and got bbq. Surprised me with how good the food was for a rather country place. Being a black man I had my feeler antenna up and by time I left I was at … More ease. They have a nice gift/souvenir shop fireworks and a very reasonable bong/tobacco shop. Prices on glass pipes are already reasonable they even offered 10% off I believe but prices ok before any discount. I have purchased 2 glass pipes in my many trips here and I love them and the price still. I live many miles away but the wife and I said we would do breakfast here 1 day so we did. As with the lunch and dinner breakfast was delicious and beautiful. The only take away from breakfast was the paper like real paper plate. It gets soggy and ur fork will go thru just like mine. Can't complain Abt the service at any point of this place so we go monthly at the least since we found it. Mad at myself for not taking pics of breakfast more so than lunch but will add photos on my next trip there

Good BBQ and a nice crew. Good selection of goods and a nice place to stop to or from the OBX. The place across the street has really gone down hill over the years.

Food is wonderful - you must order the fried chicken - you won’t be disappointed. The okra, baked beans, and hush puppies are also fantastic!!Sadly I was accosted by a woman who was afflicted with dementia and was being allowed to wander … More around the restaurant. Her family brushed it off saying she had dementia instead of making sure she was in a safe space. Our server was apologetic and made me feel better.So it was an odd visit - but the food was great!

This place has what is true NC BBQ. It doesn't even need sauce. Get it as is and trust me, you will love it. I have always loved it. I had been away from the area for about 14 years, went back and got and sandwich and it was the exact … More same. I can even taste it now. I left around 09 and came back at the end of 23 due to family friend passing. I introduced my wife to it and she loved it too. Don't change a thing y'all.

The food here is usually pretty dang good this most recent time we went there a few days ago the food was good but my burger and the bun itself were burnt pretty bad. My wife had a type of a seafood sandwich and her bun also was burnt not … More as bad as mine, but still, do you like burnt bread? The hush puppies as usual were spectacular so that’s why they’re still getting four stars and every other time we’ve been there it’s been a five star meal.

I was hoping for a good cooked meal. The service was good. The food was not all that. I had fried pork chop dinner, which comes with 2 pork chops. Well one of them was a country-fried steak, they corrected it. The Brunswick stew was not … More good at all. The green beans were good. I suggest going here as some of the other food looked good as well.

The place to go for us smokers. Cigarette prices on cartons can't be beat. The people behind the counter are conscientious, know the prices, and information on less well-known varieties, and if you are a cash customer, you receive … More a small discount.If you go in the main part of the store, youCan have some lunch, some homemade BBQ, a quart of Brunswick stew, or ice cream.You could browse around and find something for everyone.It is a very enjoyable one-stop shop. I go once a month for cigarettes for myself and my friends. It's a 2 hour round trip easy drive. Take a chance on the way down you will not be disappointed.

Went there on a Sunday. Waited for quite a while before got seated. Ordered signature fried chicken and a BBQ brisket sandwich and a chicken dumpling soup. The main dish is ok, but the side dish is really good. We really liked the hush … More puppies, the coleslaws, and the cucumber salad. The mac'n cheese is also ok. I enjoyed the chicken and dumplings soup. It wasn't spectacular, but homey. Not too salty like some other restaurants do. Overall it is an ok restaurant for the region it is in.

Stopped in for breakfast on a weekend. The place had a crowd of locals and some tourists and it was bustling. I had eggs, home fries, bacon and a biscuit, husband had eggs home fries and biscuit with sausage gravy. The waitress was a little … More off her game and had to come back to ask how to cook our eggs but otherwise the service was quick for how busy they were. Portions are large enough that I couldn't finish everything. My husband really like the sausage gravy and wished he had ordered a second biscuit! We walked out very full for just over $25 + tip.

Decent quality and prices, friendly staff. Green Beans and hush puppies were delicious, bacon on the BLT was thick cut and crisp, chicken was a bit salty for my taste though. Green beans are out of the can and doctored up, hush puppies … More and biscuits are made in-house, (we asked). The most disappointing part was that there are billboards for the hand breaded chicken everywhere, but they don't serve it until 11am, it's not available on the breakfast menu. All Canvas photos in the restaurant are for sale, sides are available in pint sizes, salad bar looked appetizing. Overall, the best meal I had traveling back to VA from NC.

We ordered a bowl of Brunswick Stew and Dark Chicken Dinner with Hush Puppies, mashed potatoes n’ gravy, and Brunswick stew.The Brunswick stew: “Southland’s own recipe includes pulled chicken, chopped pork, okra corn, limas, potatoes, and … More tomatoes. It was filling and delicious.The Dark Chicken Dinner: the fried chicken was crispy on the outside and juicy&tender on the inside. Be careful, it’s really hot, let it cool before chomping it down. Hush puppies was just the right amount of sweetness.Highly recommend the fried chickens.

You can now buy their BBQ at Food Lion in most Hampton Roads cities but, it's more expensive and I feel like fresher is better. Go eat there with the family, as a date, it doesn't matter!

April 2021 - 3 starsThis has been our go-to after church for several years. Since covid-19, things have changed and not for the better. Not sure if the cook is different, but things are coming out of the kitchen with less pride. They've … More gotten rid of some staples like their breakfast casserole which was better than cracker barrel. They no longer have things like mushrooms or spinach for your omelet, even though you can buy mushrooms that will last forever in a $0.50 can and work great in omelets. Today was kind of the last straw. We've had trouble getting decent fried potatoes the last few visits. Today, my wife was served raw potatoes. They were cold in the center. We told them we wanted them fried and asked for a new order. I've attached a picture what they brought. It was the same thing thrown in a microwave. You used to be able to get crispy potatoes and they were always well seasoned. It's a true shame, because this is super convenient and the staff are as good as you will find anywhere. The cook has to go and the management needs to rethink the menu.April 2019 - 5 starsIf you're looking for hometown food, cooked exactly the way your mom used to, this is the place. The waitresses are fast, caring and they remember you from week to week.

I had to come back and review this restaurant again. I rated it a year ago and only gave it three stars. Since the Covid break out, this restaurant has come back stronger than ever. They have socially distanced the restaurant which makes … More the area seem more open and bright. Most of the servers that needed to leave, have left because of the unemployment benefits. The servers that are still there are fantastic, they actually care if you're satisfied. I cannot stop raving about the service I have had since going back after the Covid initial shutdown. The food is even better than it used to be before the decline in the last year. Everything has been fantastic that we have ate. Their fried chicken is amazing, so are the fried pork chops. The menu is smaller now which I think helps the items that are being served to be even better because there's less confusion in the kitchen. I'm really hoping that if we are ever put back to normal that they keep the changes they have made because they are definitely an improvement.

Southland is a hidden gem in plain view.Collard greens, coleslaw, fried chicken and fried okra were among my favorites, but the authentically tasty down … More south vinegar-based sauce was especially delicious. Lucky for you, they bottle and sell it at the check out counter. Check the label for details on some simple recipes to recreate the experience and impress your friends. All you need now is a spit and a spare 12 hours.Service is prompt, friendly and accommodating. Restaurant is clean and inviting. Lots of bang for your buck when it comes to price.

Take my advice the pulled nc pork bbq is worth stopping for me and the girlfriend on a limb needed gas and said hell let’s go so happy we did!

Got one of the take home catering packages with a few extra side trays for a farewell party. Everyone was happy with the food. The Mac & cheese was one of the most popular sides with my crowd. Hush puppies were also great. The rib tips … More were the best of the bunch. The pulled pork was solid. For anyone not familiar, the take home package comes with a bottle of NC vinegar based BBQ, but if you want a thicker BBQ option you can grab it in the Southland store next door.

Had their dinner buffet, soup, salad and entree. $25 total for the wife and myself. Everything was very tasty from the soup of the day ( potato chowder) to an array of entrees. Fried chicken, baked chicken, hamburger steak with onions, … More pork bbq, and real redskin mash potatoes!The wife and I will definitely go back again.

Best place within 25 miles to get fried chicken. They have a buffet, too but I still prefer to order it off the menu, it's worth the wait. They have a variety of homemade sides as well. Lots of other options besides chicken. Snack … More bar next door has ice cream and milk shakes for dessert

Sunday buffet is 12.95. These place is busy! Very basic though, so not sure why so popular. Not much BBQ either and they stopped making the brisket at 12 noon?A bit chaotic around the small buffet tables, but everyone was nice and patient. … More
