We stopped in for dinner and it was average. The calamari was a little overdone and had very little flavor. Chicken on the Caesar Salad was good but the lettuce was soggy and extremely overdressed. Kids chicken fingers and fries were average. Fried flounder and fries average, however the Yucatan Tilapia and Shrimp was very good. Nothing really special, just average overall.

We have had people tell us about this place and we read the review's so we gave it a try and was very happy that we did. We tried a little of everything, bbq porkchops, chicken tenders, hamburger patties and all the vegetables. Everything was good and homemade. The banana pudding was great but couldn't eat much due to filling up on everything else. As good as Bea's in Chattanooga but not as expensive. We ate for less than $19. The service was great, everyone was nice and friendly. You could tell they were proud you was there. We will make the road trip again for the view and the food.

Stopped at this location for a late lunch on a return trip from the mountains of Tennessee. Our group was seated promptly - split into three tables side-by-side. Our waitress was very prompt, efficient, and attentive. Our orders were quickly taken and promptly served. Virtually everyone ordered from the lunch menu and most seem pleased with their choices. Ordinarily half of our group would have ordered from CBâs 24 all day breakfast menu but we had all enjoyed a big breakfast to start our day. We were done and back on the road in less than an hour and pleased with our overall experience. CB remains one of our favorite dining road stops.

This is a very busy place. They have a wide choice of different beers on draught and from the bottle. However the selection was rather disappointing. In the past they had several Belgian beers, but now only a couple of lagers. They serve pizza, quesadillas, nachos and salads. We ordered quesadilla with chicken and another plate with steak. However the one with steak was burned at the edges. The seazening was very salty as well. In case of nice weather you can sit outside, but because it wasn't very warm, a lot of people had to stand to the side with their drink and wait until a table got free. This place is very noisy as well, but the service is excellent.

Jefferson's promised a great cheeseburger and it delivered. Made with fresh hand made paddies and cooked perfectly, juicy, but not to a point where your hands are covered with grease. The service was on top of every request and kept up with our table. 5 stars!

If you don't want to go to trouble of grilling, smoking, and putting together a barbecue meal yourself, then there's a place you need to go, or call in a take out order......Pruett's on Rainbow Drive in Gadsden, AL. You can get directions, hours of operation, phone numbers, etc by entering the name in Trip Advisor. We recently had a family gathering and fed them with pulled pork, baked beans (outstanding), cole slaw, buns, lemon ice box pie and chocolate pie, and tea, from Pruetts. Everyone loved all the food. A lot easier than spending time grilling or smoking yourself, and the food is like you did it yourself........or better!Call ahead with your order, and if for a large crowd, give them a day or so advance notice. You will not regret your purchase!

We were so excited to happen upon this fancy restaurant while staying in Gadsden. Bar was nice and fully stocked. Menu looked full and diverse. The oddest thing about this place was that the entire staff seemed to be intoxicated while serving. The pretzel rolls were very good. The salad I ordered was not even available and I didnât find out until after everyoneâs dishes were served. So i had the Brussels sprouts for my meal. My husbands steak was ok. Could be a nice place if the staff was serious about their work.

My friend and I decided to get a quick bite here since it was close to our hotel. We ordered the catfish dinner, and being from the south we figured this would be a great choice. WRONG! It was worse than processed fish sticks. Needless to say we wonât be back.

I needed to be back in Alabama and specifically Gadsden this weekend so as always no visit is complete without stopping at Pruett's. I had a wonderful meal Friday night in a very crowded restaurant and another meal for lunch on Saturday and once again it was crowded. See a pattern??? Crowded. Do I mind? Not at all. I would wait however long it takes to get the quality of food I get here. The thing is even with a crowd I never have to wait for an extreme amount of time. They know how to manage and have the ability of making things run smooth. The other thing in addition to outstanding food is the outstanding service. Yes even in a crazy busy restaurant the service is still superior. Not just from my server but I observe and I see it from all servers. Thank you Pruett's for having such a wonderful place and for making your customers feel so appreciated and loved. I spread the good news about your restaurant everywhere I travel.
