The menu offers a wide selection, the is VERY good, not great. Service was Superb (Shauna). The atmosphere was a tad noisy but that was because they were crazy busy..the locals really support this restaurant. Would I eat there again? Yes! Note!!! They have just relocated to what WAS the Dixie Cafe. Our GPS took us to the old location…
Always a great experience when you visit Old South. The new location has improved parking. There will likely be a wait to get in, but that's because it's worth it! From the minute we were seated, we had superb service. Food came quickly for as busy as they were. And the quality is above all. Couldn't have asked for better food or service. Thanks for providing the best dining experience in Russellville.
Adrianna was our waitress and she could not have been more friendly and helpful. Every person working here was smiling, talking with customers, and hopping around making sure everyone was happy and full!
The food has to be some of the most flavorful diner food I have had in a long time! The yeast rolls were amazing! The pies (we had three kinds) were clearly homemade--it makes a difference!
The three of us each had a different entree--each so filling and tasty: the fried catfish, the chicken fried steak, and the vegetarian of our party had veggie soup, Mac n Cheese, and loaded mashed potatoes.
Do not pass this restaurant up--just a few miles, if that, off the highway!
Excellent in all ways! Large seating capacity, able to be seated upon entrance + excellent staff to provide pleasant, attentive service, and that's rare. My breakfast burrito, my husband's eggs, hash browns and biscuit w/sausage white sauce were perfectly prepared and delicious.
Everything is 5+ out of 5! AND, the very best coffee that is kept full.
Try it and you'll be returning!
Enjoy!
Old South is just an old time classic that still to this day serves amazing food with a smile! Staff are friendly and absolutely there to do their best, serve and treat each and every customer like they're family. Chicken fried steak must be a top recommend, but as you can see in my review photo we definitely had a wide sample of items! May be a new building in a different location, but the service and food has not suffered... It's even better than ever!
This is a great local place eat at. The staff here is friendliest staff I have ever encountered at any restaurant. We went for dinner and I highly recommend the chicken fried chicken. The food here is amazing. It's like something Mom would cook when you were young. Also don't forget dessert. They have some of the best pies I have ever tasted.
The new location isn't quite the same but food is still great, staff still just as friendly! They are definitely a lot more busy than they used to be due to more room. But, always worth the wait. (Try a flying pig)
The food here is so good. It was definitely worth the extra time we waited for a table!
