Shout out the good folks at Grits! Rolled in there with a group of 13 Cub Scouts after a rainy camp out. They were very accommodating in taking care of us, moving tables / seats around and such. Food was very good. I ordered the Shipwreck. Would recommend for down home cookin’ and small town hospitality.

This is a quaint little mom and Pops diner. Came in around six on a Wednesday evening. Got a very good burger. All the way fries are cooked. Lace is clean. Staff is very friendly.

Kids enjoyed their meal. My quesadilla was a little greasy/oily on the outside that I probably wouldn't order it again & the chicken tenders were a little dry, but maybe it was just a one-time thing. Its a small space so the seating is limited that there have times that we haven't ate there before because it was too crowded.

Driving into work at a Local ER, realized I hadn’t gotten food. Passed by Grits went in and ordered BLT with egg and bacon, side of green beans, peach cobbler, side of (not sweet) coke slaw that was delicious. As I waited for my food looking around the quaint restaurant (I did plug in the x-mas tree and the window lights BTW). I saw a wall of Heroes and took my time looking at it until the owner walks my way with a spoon,. Immediately I was like, ok now what we got here… meatloaf sample , fresh out the oven, followed by squash Casserole then Mac n cheese, all different samples like your Mom would give you in her Kitchen.. Touched my heart, and my belly.. Great place, great people, great food, Hospitality off the charts.. Thank you for reminding that there is still Love and Pride in the World. God Bless your Husband..

Excellent local place. Not fancy like other places in Waxhaw. We had a delicious breakfast. Pancakes were the fluffiest and lightest we have ever had. The waitress, Ashley treats everyone like family. She is incredibly friendly and sweet. Prices are fantastic. We can’t wait to go back!!!

I called on 3/27 to place a large take out order for a special birthday brunch on 3/29/25. My order was ready on time. Top customer service. Michael was super nice and helped carry my order to the vehicle. The pancakes were huge and delicious. The french toast were fluffy and tasty. Everyone enjoyed the food
