If you are in Florence or Muscle Shoals and want some good old home country cooking like your grandma used to make… then this is a must stop for you! Btw, the green beans are great!

Wonderful down home veggies and meats! Very reasonable prices. Staff is great. fast and friendly. They bring you a giant glass of your beverage of choice. Wish desserts were homemade. they are mostly from store.

Great southern cooking with generous servings at a reasonable price. I can’t eat here often due to sodium intolerance and eating a more healthy type of diet. However, when I want Grandma’s Sunday dinner type of thing, this is the place to get my cravings satisfied. Be ready to totally veg out on the sofa afterwards though.

Hometown favorite. I love this place. Best true country meat and veggie plates around. And unbeatable prices! Sweet tea is really good as well. I have since had to move to California and I sooooo miss this place. Cant wait to go home to eat here!

Going here once is not as good as it gets. Going here daily is. Garden gate is the best meat and three in Lauderdale County. As a life-long southerner, I grew up on real depression-era southern cuisine. This establishment has not lost its first love nor has it betrayed its lineage. Garden Gate has boldly ushered in this classic cuisine into the 21st century. May I suggest two meat offerings? First, try the fried chicken breast. However, you must order the saw-mill gravy on top. This addictive white gravy is more than a compliment to the perfectly fried chicken. It is its soulmate. Soul-food soul-mates(interesting concept but I digress). Second try the hamburger steak. You must order the brown gravy for this slice of perfection. Its consistancy is perfect and it is highly juicy without being slimy. Although the meats are incredible, the vegetables are really what makes this place southern. May I suggest ALL the vegetables? When I refer to vegetables as a true soul-food aficianado, this includes the macaroni and cheese and mashed potatoes. I picture now a group of steel magnolias preparing a thanksgiving feast in 1930’s rural Alabama. They are now smiling down brightly and approvingly to Garden Gate.

Good value for a typical meat &3. Nothing spectacular about this place other than both my and my friends meats were severally over salted.
