Besides the daily items that are prepared fresh everyday, there are special menu items that change daily. Stop in or view our menu to see what's on the line today!

Helpful and friendly staff. Delicious chicken and side dishes. Especially loved the squash, green beans, collard greens, and coleslaw. Pork chops for breakfast was also very good as well as the hot water corn bread. Will visit again when I'm in Nashville.

Silver Sands was wonderful. They didn't have on the menu what I wanted that day so I got meatloaf. Sooo good!!! The fried potatoes were the best part. The broccoli was a little tough but that was the only minor complaint I could have!!! Still 5 stars for good soul food!!!

She has been around for as long as I can remember (child). Breakfast if you can get in is the best (pork chops and gravy, fried potatoes and onion, egg w/wo cheese, bacon, sausage, biscuits, grits etc... Lunch is served at 10:30 - 2pm and it is just as good if not better. Mon-Friday she serves different things each day. We must not forget the cakes ,pies ,tea and try there homemade juice (kool-aid)not sure but it definitely a winner. ✅💯🍀☕🥤🍽️

That was such a satisfying meal. Glad I didn't go elsewhere after seeing the long line. Ended up waiting I think more than an hour, the longest I ever waited for food, but it was worth it.
Oxtail was very good. Pretty sure those amazing sides (lima beans and collards) were the best I ever had from a restaurant. Plenty of salmon in the salmon croquette; obviously not the freshest catch but understandable. Everything was made from scratch and was perfectly seasoned. Thank you for a great meal!

I had to come back. All the way from Clarksville because my 86 year old mother is very picky, however she had all 10,s for the food, and the quick service. I always get a piece of the FRIED chicken to ride back on and it is Fire. I mean good. The Oxtails are something to call home about. The food is just great. This is my second time, however it will not be my last

This place is the bomb. The food is so good and worth the price( $12). Might seem pricy, but believe me you will not be disappointed. I had the porkchops and gravy with turnip greens, white beans, and boiled okra. Baby let me tell you, it was so good. So if you're looking for some good ole soul food this is the place to go. BTW the staff is so friendly and the owner is so nice
