Old Jody's Restaurant

Lots of parking out back. Diner atmosphere with colorful characters, so we ate in. Wife had XL Chicken Fried Steak, you know, for leftovers! My 1/2 order of Chef Salad was ample and bottomless tray of salad crackers kept me busy. This was our 4th visit and I must say, "Jody's is consistent!"

Upon entering had our name added to the next available table list. Was told about 20 minutes, but seated in 10. Shared a table with others, no big deal. Staff hustled the entire time we were there. Had the 10oz ribeye, one medium rare, one medium well. Both were closer to medium rare. Plates came with 2 sides, each ordered a salad and potato, both plates also had fresh warm rolls. Added cheese curds which were very good.

The food is AWESOME!!!! The atmosphere is good. The waitress was very nice and courteous.

This place was great! The food was good. Their mashed potatoes and rolls were very good. I was a bit disappointed with the green beans. It seemed like they were warmed up canned green beans. We had the chicken fried steak and meat loaf were delicious. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming. We would go back.

It was pretty good. Did NOT realize it's a cash only place though. The chicken fried steak was super thinly cut but other than that the food was good. The meatloaf was said to be really good. And the waitresses were great & the place absolutely packed when we got there. I do recommend it but bring cash, there's an ATM but of course it charges you.

We went to Jody’s with a party of 6 yes we had to wait a little bit for a table because it was Saturday 6 pm. Once seated the service was quick , the food was fresh and hot, our waitress was very pleasant! Check out the pictures and you be the judge.

First time at Jody’s, but I liked the way the outside looked, and the parking lot was full. It did not disappoint! It is one of those great types of restaurants of old that reminded me of my dining experiences of my youth, which you rarely find these days. The food was great and the service was top notch. I wolfed down my burger and hand cut fries while the vintage jukebox played away…..

First time there and I loved it! I told my Aunts yall have been coming since yall were young many moons ago and just now brought me here?! All my life going to Temple to visit family and no one told me... ! As soon I walked up to the place I heard oldies and I knew oh this gonna be good! The food was very good, the staff and service was good too and it has that good ole country home cooked meals atmosphere. Plus they played oldies and other good old school jams...thank God. Cuz not many places play oldies no more. I definitely will be seeing more road trips to Temple, I already see my family there and now I can enjoy a good place to relax too.
