"Manager Monica ? (she refused to give me her name even after asking for and getting my name . She knew I was going to report her inept customer service and poor communication skills. She should NOT be in any management role (and she would not bus tables in any restaurant I have worked with . She has equally inept managers (Xavier in particular that illustrate the adage that the incompetent hire those that are even more incompetent. Ambiance is terrible, the lines are unclear, waiting times are undecipherable, the entire facility is crowded with junk, people hanging around waiting in largely nonexistent lines and unmanaged. Poor and slow service is largely due to poor management, a lack of sufficient (or sufficiently trained staff (front of house to back of house as the doors between front and back we 're constantly traffic jammed taking food back and forth between the front and back with servers looking for salad dressings, condiments and missing side orders, etc. and a lack of understanding of the restaurant business. Did not meet the standards of a typical Cracker Barrel much less any exemplary ones. Food was ill prepared, poorly presented, overcooked and several items had been 86 'd without letting the already overwhelmed servers and waitresses even know. Menu items were priced in a confusing and, in a couple of cases, duplicitous way leaving ticketed prices up to people and managers, ultimately, who stood to benefit from the errors. The only reason I can account for the people that currently dine (term used with tongue-in-cheek at this facility can be attributed to 1 it being located on I55 at the only exit with a prominent sit-down restaurant franchise in the 200 miles or so between South Memphis and Jackson, MS and a large portion of the car tags in the parking lot are from out-of-state or out-of-county locations; 2 there is a dirth of sit-down restaurant franchises in the local community none of which advertise on the main highways intersecting the local city; and, 3 locals have few choices for family eating sit-down restaurants in the local community that do not have Mexican or Asian/Chinese based menus (of which there are a few good choices but which are largely unknown to anyone that is not local. The only way to deal with these issues is to 1 report such to the corporate office as they should want to protect their flag and their brand; 2 report it to Yelp and other such venues; and, 3 vote with your feet, i.e. DO NOT EAT THERE and, encourage those family, friends and social contacts who respect your opinions to NOT EAT THERE EITHER! Caveat emptor!"
