    If you like Real Southern Cooking you will not be disappointed! I had the country fried steak, mac 'n cheese, and sweet potato soufflé. Everything was wonderful! Will bring my family next time!

    When you go to Fancy’s hungry, you leave full with a smile on your face! If you happen to be a mac and cheese connoisseur, like myself, then you know what to do! PS - the donuts are exquisite!

    A new favorite for our visits here. I've tried the Crab cakes, frog legs, fried cheesy grits, and now the chicken and waffles. I'll be back!

    classic southern favorites, open kitchen, refreshing sangria...fried green tomatoes, etouffee, and catfish were all winners!

    Very good place but since they make everything from scratch be prepared to wait a little for your food. It's worth the wait. The Chicken-n-Waffles and country fried steak are for sure shareable.

    The chicken and waffles were to DIE FOR! We also had the cheesy shrimp and grits and I am officially addicted. The service was just as good as the food. 👌

    Wonderful dinner. Try the key lime pie, it's excellent! Wanted banana pudding but they were sold out-next time :)

    Been here 10+ times
    Chicken & Waffles are awesome. Pot Roast is also very good. Food here is a much better quality than chain restaurants.

    The fried chicken is outstanding. The country fried steak is equally so. However, I recommend getting the gravy on the side, as they are a bit aggressive with it.

    The Florida Hot Fried Chicken is average. The Chicken Pot Pie is very good and a great value.

    Found the food generous, served well, but REALLY salty! I love olives and feta cheese but this was beyond!
