Dixie Maid Cafe — Restaurant in Springfield

The owners are friendly and love to chat with ya. Service was fast, helpful in making recommendations. Cute small Cafe nothing much appealing on the interior or exterior but these are the hidden gems that make the town and that foodies looking for authentic local dishes crave. I had the biscuits and gravy and these biscuits were fluffy and crunchy tastiest I've ever had. The gravy needed to be a bit more peppery for my liking but there was pepper on the table to add so I was a happy camper the server was also super friendly quick attentive conversational and made really good recommendations. Brother In Law had the smothered covered hashbrown plate that was crunchy and soft and raved about the biscuits as well. The slice cheese on top wasn't too appealing but you know felt like home with the platting atmosphere and attentiveness. Would come back for that alone and the...

They say the burgers are good here but I didn’t get that. I spent 18 dollars for a pork chop breakfast plate. I got gravy on my potatoes, they tasted weird. Like they had been soaking in soapy water or something, just weird. They grilled my biscuit because I asked for butter on it. It was okay but you could taste the burger grease which was also weird haha. The pork chop was already white when they put it on the grill. I could only guess that it had been long frozen and then left to soak in water before being cooked? I’m trying imagine how you could make a pork chop taste like that. It was very old and not good tasting.

If you go here try their burgers because the other random items might be old and long marinated in cigarette smoke. Worst dine in meal I’ve had since I tried the Waffle House Ribeye that fateful...

SO GLAD I FOUND THIS PLACE. Don't let the melanin in my skin fool you... I'm as country and redneck as they come and nothing makes me feel more at home than a good ol Diner with greasy good food and an ashtray so I can smoke while and after I eat!! Everyone in here seems like they know everyone well and I like that. Place just feels like home to me. Best bacon cheeseburger I have ever had. And the home fries! I could order those by themselves they were so good. Down home sweet tea, haven't had tea that sweet and good since I been back home to VA. Sitting here smoking and I gotta be honest, I don't even want to get up and leave. I definitely will be back. Only down side is I can't bring my teenager in because it's a smoking restaurant, but I can always grab to go with him! Can't wait to bring to...
