Customer Review Summary
Diners repeatedly point to full dinner combos, like the turkey dinner and country fried steak, that arrive with soup, salad, and dessert included, calling the value hard to beat with two full dinners coming in under thirty dollars. Close behind, breakfast draws steady praise, especially the stuffed French toast and the Garden Benedict with poached eggs and hollandaise, along with the Mexican skillet and biscuits and gravy, with one reviewer noting gravy can run out before 11 a.m. on weekdays. Servers are singled out by name repeatedly for friendly, fast service, and several reviewers mention driving considerable distances, from Westville or 45 minutes away, specifically to return. A recurring complaint has nothing to do with food: two reviewers say they've stopped coming back after seeing how the restaurant handled a viral social media post about pricing, describing it as blocking or deleting people who raised the issue, even while still praising the food and their servers. One reviewer closes by thanking their waiter directly for the help despite deciding not to return.

“Absolutely LOVED our waiter. VERY attentive, kind, and a job well done. Always. But due to the restaurants own practices and how they handle things, Our family will no linger be coming. Thank you tall dark haired waiter for your help!!”

“Enjoyed a late breakfast. Portions were generous, most items $10 or less. My omelette was delicious, I heard the biscuits and gravy were too. (Heads up: at least during the week, order gravy before 11a.m.) The staff were friendly and efficient.”

“Come in weekly!! Oustanding options. Came across a viral post. Castaways deletes/ blocks people when they expose that their restaurant CAN indeed post their prices. But they use a guise of "strict Facebook guidelines to prevent deletion". After I saw that, I decided that a restaurant that can't take responsibility, is not for us. Food is great though. Character and Integrity is not.”

“Great experience!! Found this hidden gem and you should too! We were greeted, sat right away, and CJ our server was a 10/10! Food was delicious! Price was great! Our turkey dinner and country fried steak came with potato, soup, salad, AND dessert!!! For two dinners (no drinks though) less than $30! Well worth it and will be back!”

“We came for breakfast. The service was friendly and fast. Our servers name was CJ, highly recommend him! We ordered the combo #4, the Mexican skillet, and a side order of biscuits and gravy. The food was great. I am gluten free but had to try the stuffed French toast, it definitely was worth it lol. The Mexican skillet was also very good!”
