Trace-Way Restaurant - American restaurant in Mathiston - 17990 US-82, USA

Friend said the lunch buffet is pretty good. I needed gluten-free, so I got chicken strips, fries, and salad bar. Staff are fairly nice and accommodating- place needs a deep cleaning, seriously. Dusty blinds; grimy, smeared handprints on windows; filthy fan in ladies' bathroom; dirty chairs and floors - was really surprised and disappointed to see this, because I love my home state and its people.

AWFUL food! tater tots were undercooked-ordered a gr. chicken salad and they put chicken in a box and told me to fix my salad part at the bar; kicker was they gave a side order size take out box to put the (very wet) lettuce in. No way a dinner sized salad but was charge for one! Very little options on the bar and they left out my ranch. My mom ordered a hamburger, bun was greasy, and it was bowl shaped due to the way they packed it.I tried them a while back also and was dissatisfied as well. Hate I spent my hard earned money with them. Completely unacceptable 😣

Nice little old-fashioned truck stop restaurant still giving good Southern hospitality service and food if you're in the area stop by

I've been coming to this diner since the 1970's. Now that live out of state, I've renewed my love of simple, inexpensive comfort food.

holy dump. There’s a reason this place is rated a B and not an A. Even McDonald’s is better cleaned. All their waiters/servers were obese and looked unhealthy themselves. Their card machine couldn’t read our Canadian debit cards to pay for our food so we went to the atm down the road which let us take money out, but their machine couldn’t read our cards how ironic. There was a group of people who was fly swatting their table, so you’re essentially eating on tables that has fly guts splattered all over them. I definitely wouldn’t recommend this place to anyone. The fattest server sat down to talk and take someone’s order they knew. Totally grossed out.

The catfish is delicious, but those onion rings are the bomb 💣 😋 👌 😍.

We love Trace Way! My parents eat there a lot and since I drive for them most of the time, I get to eat there a good bit too. My daughter loves it as well! We ate fish there last night and it was amazing! Their coleslaw is the absolute best!!!! The staff are super nice! They also have a room off to the side where you can have birthday parties and stuff.

Stopped in on our way home. Ordered burgers, fries, coffee and a coke. The waitress was sure to make sure we were taken care of. Our drinks stayed full. Our food was delicious. My only complaint is the restaurant could use a very thorough deep cleaning. Windows, sugar shakers, seats, knick knacks, pictures, etc have been neglected for awhile.
