The Pond Aurora, Ky. — Restaurant in Benton

We've tried the Pond three times now and every time the food is quite marginal. I'm sure they make good fried fish and french fries. But they sure don't know how to, or pay attention to making, anything else. The salads seem like they've been sitting around for hours. Today our salad was frozen, yea, even the tomato was crunchy frozen. Lettuce does not freeze very well at all. The prices are cheap, just wish they would have good quality even if it means a slightly higher price. We will not go again, we've given up on the Pond.

I was just here, the food, and service is usually some of the best, but after today I do not think I will go back.

First u will get a down home feeling from the owners and staff. I've been there several times and I've never heard or seen a cross word. As for the food, u will NOT leave hungry or disappointed. Bowls of beans, hushpuppies, slaw made with ur choice of salad dressing or vinegar. Also do u want one piece of fish or all u can eat? Bc that's also ur choice. Remember their pie & cobbler selections and get u a piece for home. I was raised on sweet tea and their's is so good and cold. I'm ready for another trip...
