The Scene
The no-frills dining room is come-as-you-are casual and family-friendly with sassy waitresses who are on a first-name basis with their regular customers. After all, some families have been coming here since Beach Road's opening in the 1930s, providing third and fourth generation customers.
The Food
''The dinner'' is served family-style, meaning there's no end to the bounty until you put a halt to it. In addition to the perfectly crisp chicken (four pieces of tender white meat, dark meat or a combination), you get a tower of fresh, light biscuits, rich gravy, crunchy coleslaw, cream peas and mashed potatoes, french fries or rice. Items also come a la carte. Regardless of what's ordered, only the heroic make it to dessert: Key lime or lemon pie.
