Hubby said his Swiss ham sand. and soup was great. I had the chicken salad sand on rosemary bread.. chicken salad way too chunky... lil to no taste.. bread was not fresh..had to cut off the crust to eat it.... loved our server... not too many sweets to choose from . I was disappointed.. they had great reviews... we are new to the area.. trying new local places.. and can't say I will go back.

My son found this wonderful place while driving through. I was confused at first sight, I thought it was a warehouse. Once inside, we were greeted by the most welcoming ambiance and the server was so sweet. The food and desert was delicious! We can't rave enough about this perfect lunch spot!

Wow! I found this little gem on Yelp as one of the ten best lunch eateries in Dothan. Wifey and I made the first of many visits yet to come. The absolute BEST chicken salad sandwich I have ever had (and I make a darn good one) the roast beef with au jus dipping sauce was succulent and big enough to share with a couple of sides. A must try is the sweet potato fries with a dipping sauce made of 17 spices and it is great. I will be trying the soups and salads on my next visit. Do yourself a favor and try it---If not paying attention you'll pass it by as it has nothing indicating it's a restaurant.

THE BEST Chicken Salad ever!! The owner, Katie, and her staff are phenomenal! Their prices are very affordable. The ever-expanding menu is perfect for every palate. I live in Virginia and hear about this restaurant all the time! When I'm in Dothan, you know where i'll be eating first! :)

The River Nile is the best local cafe you can wander in to here. Katie has tremendous food, desserts and atmosphere and the friendliest employees anywhere. Eat with Ms. Katie and the crew, your stomach will thank you. Oh yeah, try the roasted red pepper soup. It's drop the mic good.

When my husband and I want an amazing burger we come here!!! The Gouda Burger is phenomenal!! We have traveled all over the world and have eaten a lot of burgers. This is hands down the best! Paired with the sweet potato fries makes it even better!!!

And to top it off I get an encouraging message on my to go boxes each visit... who doesn’t need positive encouragement in this day and time?! So thankful for this family owned and managed restaurant!!

We held my parents' surprise anniversary party here, and I'm so glad we were able to find and rent this place. It's a charming venue, perfect for a party of 20 to 40 people. I haven't been here for a meal during regular business hours yet, mainly because I live 2 hours away. But I took a peek at the menu, and I instantly became a fan. When I'm back in town, this will definitely be a place to stop and have a bite.
