Olive Branch Cafe — Restaurant in South Jacksonville

As soon as we walked in, we were greeted by a friendly hostess, who happened to be the owner. We were promptly seated at a booth and given some breakfast menus. It definitely hasn't lost it's charm from previous owners, in fact some items were added. After we ordered, the food arrived somewhat promptly, but didn't seem as tasty as expected. The coffee seemed like it was simply poured from a big-ole pot that hasn't been cleaned out in a while, possibly just using unfiltered tap water. The corned beef seemed seared over a scorching hot pan, same with hash browns. As a matter of fact, both didn't seem quite fully cooked.

The place was busy and you are required to wait to be seated but the manager was too busy video chatting on her phone to seat you. Waited 5-6 min for her to finish her call. She even turned enough so anyone looking could see the video call. Biscuits and gravy were terrible. Biscuits overdone. They do not split the Biscuits just plop them down and cover with gravy.
