Lau-tori's Fine Foods

While visiting the area we decided to stop in for dinner. The food and service was excellent. We may just have to make a special trip back to eat again.

We really love to eat there but, the last few times we've been service has been slow and there were only 3 tables with guest. There are people in and out of the kitchen area that are not working at that time. The last time we were there, some young boy sat on the counter where tea and all us located. That isn't sanitary at all. Then the servers were back talking and we had to wait until we could get someone's attention to get our bill. I know and dearly love the owners but I had to write this.

Salad is always good. Ranch dressing is great.

We've been wanting to try this restaurant for some time, but we're rarely in this area. However, tonight it seems the stars finally aligned, as we were passing through, were hungry, they were open, not too busy...it was all very serendipitous. Since it was about an hour before closing time, we looked at the menu online, stopped in, and just grabbed something to go. We both ordered a cup of vegetable beef soup and an appetizer of fried green tomatoes. The FGT were made to order, so they were hot and fresh with a nice light, crisp breading. We asked that the Crawfish Julie sauce be placed on the side, and they were quite generous with that element. The soup was a tomato-base...decent, but, honestly....rather unremarkable, but certainly nothing to complain about. The downside being that we both agreed the food was more than a bit bland. But, to be fair, this could be a conscious dietary/health decision to appeal to more patrons, since both are easily spiced to one's taste. Bottom line: for almost $30, it was not spectacular, but we do consider it worth returning one day to explore other menu options. And......earning some extra shine on those stars ?- I had just cut my leg, and the staff was kind enough to provide me with a band-aid upon request. I appreciated that, so I'd like to say thanks so much to Lau Tori's ownership and staff!!!

Love Lau-Tories it's the best Southern cooking the fried catfish is perfection and their turnip greens and hush puppies and the dumplings are to die for. My hubby loves the Lotta Burger with cajun fries actually we like everything from there have had nothing but great experiences as far as food and service. Our favorite place to eat plus it's reasonable and friendly.
