This is a review of the cafe. My mom is from the area and I've been visiting Linden for years. This place, with its friendly new chef, is awesome. I would recommend the porkchop in maple glaze and especially the melt-in-mouth cheesecake for dessert, and I know my relatives enjoyed the grits. Worth the trek off I-40 if you're looking for good food in the area. Also, BYOB! In Linden!
Review Source:My family and I had the pleasure of staying at the Commodore Hotel this past weekend for a family reunion.  We stayed here almost 4 years ago and I can say without a doubt it was BY FAR better this time.  The service was outstanding from the moment we walked in to the time we said our goodbyes.  Lee was there for us every step of the way and made sure we were comfortable and taken care of.  We had breakfast and dinner at the café and enjoyed it thoroughly!  The fare exceeded my expectations and the atmosphere and service were impeccable.  I was impressed that the head chef came out to chat with us, take our order, and served us too!  Definitely look forward to the next trip south!
