Food has deteriorated to below average "home cooking". Management rude and condescending.

My husband wanted home cooked food. Fried chicken was over cooked. Dumplings were rubbery. White gravy had no flavor.
Next time my husband will stick to home cooked food from home.

Waitress was grumpy at first, then when she learned we were from out of town, she was attentive.

This is an excellent place to go along the HWY 81 corridor. The place is very family oriented and they also make their meals to go. Before I go on driving trips, I often come here to get one or two meals for the road.

Complaining about Mrs. Rowe's is somewhat like attacking motherhood. But frankly, based on two recent visits (April 2007), my wife and I were a bit disappointed. The cakes and pies that we sampled were splendid and the warm spoon bread was just in itself probably worth at least one visit. But the "entrees" could well have been skipped: my "Southern Fried Chicken" was about as dried out and dreary as could be.
