Iron Skillet - McCalla

Ok so the actual place is nothing to write home about but it's clean. But, the pancakes are perfect! We live nearby and go on Saturday mornings for pancakes. If you get the pancake breakfast you get 5 big pancakes. My husband orders pancakes, eggs and bacon and I get a side order of turkey sausage. His bacon is always crispy and eggs are scrambled. We share the pancakes... I get two he has three and they are on point! Can't speak for the rest of the menu, but I definitely definitely definitely recommend the pancakes!

#21/2023 Well it's been quite a while I think during covid was the last time I think I reviewed here. Like any other iron skillet it follows the same kind of things there's no changes at all. Only thing that changes are pretty much the hours vary locations still due to staffing. I'm giving the benefit of the doubt it's really three and a half stars but for the service they have in the cleanliness they're doing pretty good job keeping things pretty good. I decided to be adventurous and try one of their new smash burgers tonight. I went with the bleu cheese one minus pickled onions. This is the new craze everybody's jumping on the smashburger bandwagon in the Petro iron skillet and I think ta county pride are kind of trying to join the crowd. Personally I'm not a big fan. Impressed at all pressing the burger with a spatula on the grill okay let's put everybody seems to do now it's the new in thing smash burgers. Me I like a big old thick juicy burger I think better. Now I'm not saying it didn't taste like crap or anything it was fine but it just wasn't for me. I probably won't go to a smashburger location because if this is what it is not what I want. But I will say I have an eating smash burgers before they coined the term for years I've been going to steak and shake since back in late teens. So yes they are the original smash burgers before the term was coined they take the steak Patty they smash them on the grill. After something about steak and shake that I just like these were just I don't know I mean if I was starving yeah I need them but they're not something I would say oh I can't wait to go hit the iron skillet or country pride and get me a smashburger. Hey to each their own

The food was good The service was great It's a restaurant in a gas station it was kid friendly I had 4 kids with me and there was something they all liked

We have been here a few times. The staff had consistently been friendly. Service has been good. We have found that the food is better if you order from the menu as opposed to getting food from the food bar, but that is a personal choice. The restaurant is large, so we've never had a wait. Stop by and check it out.

Everything exceeded my expectations! I walked in by accident looking for the Popeyes next door. The atmosphere and vibe was very good. After walking into Popeyes I turned around and went back. So glad I did. The server Kierston was excellent, my order was delivered in a timely manner exactly the way I ordered it. Sirloin medium was crispy hash-browns with shredded cheddar and eggs over well. Was delicious. Could not believe how good the steak was. Never considered asking for the steak sauce. I don't park at petro very often because I can't fuel here, glad I stopped This is a good place.
