Cruell's Country

The server was exceptionally nice and very attentive! When we parked, all the lights were off but the open sign was on. They were open but no customers. No other customers showed up the entire time we were there. We were there for an hour and a half 5pm-6:32pm. We're from out of town so not sure why no customers came in. The food did take a while but we were patient. We had some issues with food quality as my chicken fried steak was served VERY over cooked and so very tough that I couldn't eat it. (See photos) The mashed potatoes were real potatoes without the peel and they were very good. My husband had the fried flounder and he enjoyed it. We couldn't tell if it was actually flounder though. The onion rings were oddly tough and over cooked and seemed a bit old. My mother in law had the chicken fried chicken breast and said it was ok but very dry. She also had the fried green tomatoes. They seemed sliced super thin but had a good taste. The sweet tea tasted fresh and very sweet. The pictures on their Facebook page look alot better than what we were actually served. The portions were small and served on a small styrofoam plate. The restaurant has potential, I just think it could use a makeover and revamping of food quality and serving, plate presentation and dinner portions.

Really down to earth, great to hear its family owned and makes homemade food that you don't throw in a microwave.

I really want to see this little country kitchen succeed. The folks are nice as can be and man these people know how to make some good home cooking and for cheaper than you can make it for yourself. I would recommend a stop in for a bite

UPDATE: Just got home with our food. And all I can say is God must be in your kitchen! This food is heavenly! Thanks for the great food and didn't even take long.

I tried out this place because I love mom and pop places. This is one restaurant I will continue to go to. They have awesome home cooked food. The prices are fair and the staff are so friendly they make you feel like family. I love this place so much. I've already decided that since I'm unable to cook for myself I'll be going there today for lunch and another for dinner. I can admit it is the best place in Marietta to eat and I'm very glad they picked here to open their doors. I hope they stay forever!
