Melon Patch Restaurant and Farmers Market

Actually, they have a different cook now and the food is very good country cooking. Their fried catfish is some of the best I have had and the serving size is plentiful--two large fillets and that was all I could eat. I also like their meat loaf, and that is also a larg...e portion. Their fried chicken is also great--I get a large chicken breast when I order that. They are happy to change any item if you are unhappy with it for any reason. We go several times a month. It is also popular with the senior citizens. I have never paid more than $8 or $9 for a meal (less if I get water instead of tea) unless I order "all you can eat." That usually runs about $12.95.

This place has the best Catfish I've ever had and I've eaten alot more than my share.

From a proud punch card carrier....The first visit there was with my 90 yr, extremely picky, Grandmother. She noted that the green beans must have been made with ham or bacon seasoning.... a plus for her... she cooks like that. The mashed potatos are fresh and homemade... with butter generously already present.... yum. I had the chicken casserole and it was great!!! The next time I took my hubby, a sort of southerner in training, he is from FL. He had the country fried steak and loved it! I had a veggie plate and it was DELICIOUS... especially the yams and green beans!!!! The price was good. The quality was excellent. The service was very good ...those waitresses work hard! LOVED IT and taking MOM tomorrow.... adding to my punches... heh heh.... see you there! Read More

I took my mother out for what was suppose to be a nice quiet mother-daughter dinner tonight 12-19-2008 to the Melon Patch because she wanted to try their all you can eat fish. We get seated, actually we're told to seat ourselves, so we did, the waitress comes out and br...ings us the menus, and we place our drink order, she brings the drinks, and we wait 10 minutes on our meals to arrive. I ordered the All you can eat Fried Catfish dinner with a loaded baked potato, and she ordered the all you can eat Fried Alaskan with white beans and fries. Food arrives, my fish is greasy, really really greasy the potato has nothing on it but cheese and butter (since when is this a loaded potato?) I get the attention of the waitress and ask her to take the fish back because its too greasy, she takes the plate and out comes the manager with a horrible smart mouthed attitude, not only does he talk to me like I'm 3 he talks to my mother in the most disrespectful manner I've EVER seen. I'm disgusted with this place and their service, the food was horrible, we didn't even eat it, we paid our bill and left and the service was the worst I've ever encountered in my entire life.\t\n\t\nDon't waste your time or your money on this place, unless you want to be treated like trash and charged an arm and a leg.
