Due to the name we expected a backyard burger sort of place but were surprised at the great food. The blackened grouper with shrimp was fabulous and the shrimp and grits were the best I have ever eaten. Better than my mom's (sorry mom!). The service was just as good as the food. Would go back again and again! More

I think the many glowing reviews on TA got my hopes too high. The meal was decent enough. My wife loved the meatloaf. I had the special which was a tortilla crusted fish. The tortilla crust was tough and chewy, but the fish was great. The veggie sides were good, and we had some really excellent collard greens (I usually... More

Fried green tomato BLT was outstanding! They have homemade ranch that is out of this world and we concur with others.....stay for the fresh banana pudding with homemade vanilla wafers! Patio is charming and at 2:00, there were plenty of seats in the breeze. More

We visited this past week during a family vacation. Atmosphere was great, loved the outdoor seating area. Food was wonderful, I had the baked chicken, husband had the shrimp and grits. Waitress was friendly. Prices were very reasonable. Out of the 5 resturants we visited, this was the best. Save room for the banana pudding dessert! More

Fantastic value for the food. Best grits and shrimp I ever ate. Better than Ralph and Kakoo in NOLA. Hour wait at 7 pm so come early. No reservations. Wife had fried green tomato BLT and Mac n cheese good too. Wine $5 glass. More

We visited A low Country Backyard last week based on the reviews that we had seen and were thrilled with this restaurant. The meatloaf with peach BBQ sauce is excellent and unique. I had Mac and Cheese several times on HH and this was the best. Service is friendly and attentive and the prices are fair. I would definitely recommend... More

My husband and I discovered this little restaurant by chance. We have been back several times both for lunch and for dinner. We enjoy the friendly service, the charming courtyard seating and the delicious and carefully prepared food. We have never been disappointed. The soups are delicious as are the friend green tomatoes with great house made ranch dressing. This... More

We recently ate here for Sunday brunch. Food was good. Service was okay. Price is a touch high. I would eat here again. And I would order the Tomato sandwich with bacon or the BisChick. Both were excellent. The shrimp and grits and the Bananas Foster French Toast were just okay. More
