  Went for breakfast. Ordered biscuits and gravy, bacon and hash browns. Nothing was above lukewarm. Hash browns were not good. They are cooked in beef tallow instead of clarified butter. It was compressed and full of the tallow, like a block of grease. I brought it up with a server. She brought back a manager who kind of looked at me like I was stupid for asking about it.Gravy was good, biscuit was OK. But not hot. There were exactly three people in the restaurant at eight o'clock, which is when they open. Kitchen wasn't busy so they had plenty of time to get the hot fresh food. Whites appeared to be unconcerned.

  Tried their new location. Very popular spot, so expect wait times. Servers were very friendly, but slow on refills and bringing requested condiments like syrup and hot sauce. Portion sizes are very generous. Definitely go when you're hungry. Food was decent. Eggs over medium were a little under with runny whites. Hash browns were perfectly crispy outside and fluffy in the middle. Pancakes had an unusual crunchy texture around the edges. Overall decent value given prices and portion sizes.

  We came in about two weeks ago, and honestly, we told Audi we’d do a review and I forgot. But I’m doing it now because of how fantastic our server, Audi, was—so much so that I had to make sure I came back to leave her the glowing review she truly deserves! Audi was super attentive, warm, and friendly from the moment we sat down. But what impressed us the most was watching her gracefully handle a table of rude customers nearby. Some people are just determined to be awful no matter what, but Audi handled them with incredible patience, total kindness, and pure class. That takes a level of composure and grace that you just can't train. She’s better than me for sure! So we visit about twice a month, and have been doing so for quite some time - and from now on, we will explicitly be asking to sit in Audi's section every single time. She is hands down one of the absolute best servers we’ve ever had! In a side note - please bring back your Mac and cheese! It’s not relevant to this specific review solely for Audi but I’m shooting my shot! LoL

  I have been a customer of Bobbie’s Southern Kitchen for approximately three years. My family and I have returned numerous times, spent significant money here, and consistently tipped the staff well. When my in-laws visit from Hawaii, Bobbie’s has traditionally been one of their first stops. Until this visit, I had never personally experienced a serious problem with the restaurant. Today, that changed. My family of six arrived while the restaurant was extremely busy. We were told the wait would be approximately 30 minutes. We understood the restaurant was busy and were willing to wait. After waiting close to an hour, I asked for an update and was told there were two parties ahead of us. We continued waiting while several parties appeared to be seated before us, including parties that arrived after us. I asked the host for clarification. He explained that seating depended on party size and table availability. Although frustrated, I accepted the explanation and did not create a confrontation. The situation changed when the owner became involved. During the interaction at the front of the restaurant, the owner made comments to the effect that this was simply how things were and that customers could go somewhere else if they did not like it. Whether those comments were directed specifically at me or another customer, I found the manner and circumstances dismissive and unprofessional. My family decided to leave. As we were leaving, we were notified that our table was ready. Because my mother-in-law had specifically wanted to eat at Bobbie’s, we ultimately decided to stay. Unfortunately, the situation escalated after we were seated. There was an interaction between the owner and my mother-in-law involving prolonged eye contact. From my perspective, the owner then confronted us by asking what we was staring at and whether there was a problem as she moved towards us in a confronting manner. I acknowledge that I became upset and responded firmly. I told the owner that I would not accept being spoken to disrespectfully and that I did not believe we had done anything warranting law-enforcement involvement. The owner threatened to call the police. I told her she could do so. We left the property, and law enforcement did not arrive while we were there. The owner has since publicly stated that our behavior was disruptive, that law enforcement had to be called, and that my mother-in-law apologized to staff. That characterization does not match my firsthand recollection of what occurred. The owner also stated that the entire incident was captured on video and audio. I welcome that documentation being reviewed in its entirety. If recordings exist, they should show the events leading up to the confrontation, what was said, who approached whom, and what occurred as we left. I am a retired United States Marine and an attorney, and I understand the importance of distinguishing firsthand observations from assumptions or allegations. I am therefore standing by what I personally witnessed and experienced and am prepared to provide documentation supporting my account when appropriate. I also perceived the treatment of my family as having a racial component. We are a multiracial, multicultural family. I recognize the owner may disagree with my perception, but that does not change what I personally experienced. I want to distinguish the ownership from the restaurant’s regular staff. We have previously received good service from the hosts and servers, and this review is not intended to characterize every employee. After three years of patronizing this restaurant and bringing family here—including family traveling from Hawaii—I never expected to leave feeling disrespected and unwelcome. My one-star rating reflects this specific experience with ownership. I stand by my account and welcome a complete, objective review of any available documentation.

  Finally made it to Bobbys…..The Worst experience!!!…Host would not give estimated wait time…would only say 8 ahead of you… We decided to wait…seated after approx 20 min) so not too bad . We ordered, coffee came it was not bad but could have been hotter….both orders included pancakes…i ordered “silver dollar” but with out the eggs…asked for crisp but not overdone bacon and crispy hashbrowns…i also asked for melted butter to be delivered prior to pancakes…. Wait person said oh yes! I will put in hot water to melt!? So then orders arrived….. After guy delivering food set plates down We realized no butter melted or otherwise… AND NO SYRUP! My husband asked him to Please bring syrup and guy actually said, “Oh, you want syrup?” DUH!!! I said, i asked for melted butter…he just looked at me…wait person arrived at same moment asked if all good….i said no we need the melter butter and syrup….big kudos for the “warm” syrup but delivered in about 3-4 min after asking….wait person arrived back w/3 small pkgs of 1/2 melted butter (3-4 min) certainly not enough for 2 orders of pancakes so had to ask for more and wait again….now on top of this i was given normal sized pancakes NOT REALLY silver dollar sized…oh well, so poured butter over now barely warm pancakes ….i went to cut in with a fork and unbelievably the pancakes were very tough! Hard to cut with a fork! I took one bite and said no way! Tough and tasteless! My husband who will eat anything was ok with his pancakes because he “drowns” in syrup making them mush…so ok… but i could not eat mine as i don’t like a lot of syrup so just could not eat….then about the bacon….i thought i would break a tooth trying to chew! Hard as rocks!! The crispy hash browns were nicely crisped but bland so i had to add salt The price for my meal before coffee was $13.99 even though i did not require the 2 eggs…a ridiculous amount of money for mostly terrible food…cannot understand why people rave on about this place…i did tell wait person my thoughts on the food issues and she just said oh, i will let kitchen know as she collected full payment. We will not be going back. We will stick with IHOP or Magnolia Pancake House for breakfast. If i could give ZERO stars for food i would.
