Mable's Dining Room

Wow, what an experience! Everything looked so good we couldn't decide - thankfully the waiter had a great recommendation. Nothin' like some good country cookin'

If you're looking for good food at yesterday's prices, Mables is where you need to go. They have great down-home country cooking. The building is not a million dollar structure, but don't let its looks fool you about what's inside. The staff is friendly and the service is good. Mables has been a family favorite for local dining for years. Tonight, my wife and I both had their Wednesday night special, 11 oz country fried steak, baked potato, and salad for $8.79.

This place is old school southern! It's not much to look at, which might send some people for the door, but the food is great, the waitstaff treat you like family, and the prices are incredible. The place was full of locals when we arrived, everyone knows everyone. Our family will be back.

Great food and service. Prices are very reasonable! They only take cash or check. One of our favorites and worth the drive for us!

The waitress was lovely, food arrived quickly. Tables were clean. Due to covid they didn't have the first three things my mom ordered, which is understandable, though maybe they should adjust the menu for the moment or put a sheet of paper with the menus warning about it (or on one of the white boards around the restaurant). Mom found out by ordering and getting told they didn't have them because the salad bar is closed. She finally just asked what was available to make things easier. Mom got the meatloaf with mashed potatoes, mac&cheese, cornbread, and fruit tea to drink. I got catfish with greens and mac&cheese, coffee to drink. The coffee was passable, not the best I've ever had but definitely not terrible. Mom said the fruit tea was heavy on the pineapple juice this time and not as good as the first time she had it (her second time here, my first). The catfish was absolutely delicious. Perfectly seasoned and flaky. It came with tarter sauce that I think is homemade(mainly because it's got a yellowish tint and I've never seen that before), and was some of the best I think I've ever had. It also came with hushpuppies that were delicious. The meatloaf was delicious as was the cornbread and the mashed potatoes weren't bad, but like the coffee, I'd call them passable. I was disappointed in my sides, especially the mac&cheese, it's one of my favorite things to eat and for a restaurant I thought there's wasn't that good. I've had boxed mac&cheese that was better. It was a little liquidy and the cheese had a strange taste to it. The greens were very watery, and tasted as if there was no seasoning at all. After asking for salt, pepper, and vinegar, I tried to fix them but still felt they were rather unpalatable. We had fudge pie for dessert and even though I have a sweet tooth it had a strange aftertaste that I think was from too much syrup in it. It wasn't bad, just different. Overall I would definitely still recommend trying here, maybe just avoid the mac&cheese, greens, and fudge pie.
