User Reviews for Carvers Grocery

It's a mom and pop meat and three restaurant that grew out of an old convenience store type grocery. They have 8 or 9 amazing comfort food entrees every day that rotate in or out like catfish, bbq, fried chicken, potroast, etc. and mouth watering side dishes like broccoli soufflee, rutabagas, yams, turnip greens, etc. There is a line at the door, but it moves pretty fast. Some things start running out about 1:30 or 2:00, as they try to make things fresh every day. They'll keep your giant lemonade and crushed ice cup full, and you will likely share a big table and maybe a conversation with other regulars as the seating is limited but perfect for the atmosphere. I have mixed emotions about reviewing it here, because I don't want the lines to get longer, but the people who run the restaurant, Mr. and Mrs. Carver, deserve all the success they can get. This is the best comfort food there is, and the atmosphere is the opposite of a sterile chain restaurant.

I have lived in the south my entire life and I am thankful for places like Carvers that keep good recipes alive! The food and atmosphere are great but you will be coming back for the food. If you go, go early because once something on the menu is gone, it is gone.
Pros: Food, Crowd, Location
Cons: Parking, Line to get in
