"I visited Calico County with my husband and his parents last month! I’ve been to the restaurant several times, and this is my first review. Calico County is a staple of home cooking in the River Valley! It’s one of the places I take my family and friends when they visit from out of state! My husband really likes their hand-breaded, chicken tenders. I like to order the vegetable plate!! I ordered mashed potatoes with brown gravy, fried okra, black eyed peas, and turnip greens. Everything was so good! The special thing about Calico County is that they bring out cinnamon rolls before your meal!! Our server was very kind and attentive. The atmosphere is welcoming and homey. You can tell that they have taken a lot of intentionality in piecing together the decor in the restaurant. It feels very nostalgic! Thank you to the Calico County team for providing an overall positive experience!"

"Can't say enough about Destiny and Katie the hospitality is out of this world, the food is delicious and although it's been half a year since my last visit, they actually remembered me?! The staff as a whole is great, the atmosphere is homey and quaint while still having that rustic finish. Fantastic as it was last time, next time I'll spend more time here and buy the kitchen a round! Blackened Catfish with crayfish etouffee was stellar yet again and still recommend it."

"Had a wonderful experience here today, I dined in and ordered the yellow curry chicken at a Lvl 3 spiciness with brown rice, which I found to be just right! It was very flavorful, creamy, and filling. My only complaint would be that the potatoes were a tad underdone, but other than that, Great! Would've liked for the prices to be included in the menu for each item, but that did not take away much from this experience. I liked the fact that the server (who seemed like the owner as well, but not sure) brought out a small bowl of salad with what tasted like a homemade dressing soon after I was seated. Will definitely be coming back to try the other options this place has to offer!"

"A small mom pop, downhome cooking place, the kind where the waitress calls you Honey and Sugar. They have printed menus, but it is also written on chalkboards on the wall. I had the hamburger steak with mashed potatoes, grilled vegetables and baked beans. My buddy had the chicken fried steak with mashed potatoes, fried okra and pinto beans. All of it tasted good and for the price, there was a good amount of food. We both ordered a slice of pie to go chocolate meringue for me and I think he got chocolate cream. We agreed the pie was very good. Will definitely go back the next time I 'm in the area as there are several different dishes I want to try, plus I saw a really yummy looking strawberry pie I want next time!"

"Hadn’t been to Benson’s in a while, it’s a small restaurant and usually busy, but I had read some comments lately about how good the food is, so my son, granddaughter, and I tried it on a Saturday morning about 10am. Had to wait 5 minutes for a table. The waitstaff moved quickly and efficiently and were very welcoming and very attentive. They moved about the small space with the intention of keeping the customers fed and taken care of. The restaurant was very clean. I was intrigued by the Gotcha description even tho I usually don’t care for current day versions of biscuits and sausage gravy. I couldn’t imagine how it could be served without being a soggy mess. Anyway, I decided to try it, added cheese and onions to the hashbrowns, and asked for bacon on the side rather than stacked. Coffee cups were kept filled. Service was fast, the restaurant was full the entire time we were there. I was completely Gobsmacked by the Gotcha. The biscuit on the bottom was not soggy, I could taste the firmness of the outside and fluffy of the inside. The hashbrowns were crisp with just the right amount of cheddar so you could see and taste it. Eggs were scrambled. The side of bacon was cooked just crisp enough. The crowning glory was the white gravy (no sausage, the gravy stood alone! with a decent amount of black pepper, it really was a lovely dish! This is the gravy of my childhood which was a staple, either for breakfast or for supper to accent a platter of fried chicken and mashed potatoes. My greatest compliment of this dish is that is that it was not over salted. I have a great sensitivity/dislike of high sodium foods and I know this dish lends itself to high sodium….but salt was not added to this food to make it more palatable! We were offered the addition of extra spice, jalapeños, choice of hot sauces, but the flavor of the dish held its own, the first taste/flavor was not screaming high sodium! I’m still not sure how this combo worked so well, but it’s a fantastic breakfast and I will be back soon."
