Paradise Grill

  We've been here twice on our way from Columbus to Atlanta. This is a short order type of restaurant, but everything tastes good. Don't come in expecting a five-star dining experience, that's not what this place is. Come in expecting decent food at a decent price and you'll leave satisfied.

  Terrible food and service was worse. Don't go here unless you would like to wait over an hour for a gross sandwich.

  Arriving in Paradise scant days before Christmas you'd expect the rangy wenches haunting this shack to be overjoyed to see paying customers stumble across their threshold a quarter past four in the afternoon, which exactly what they didn't do.
  
  The bottle of gruff they be swilling had dampened their holiday spirit, clearly at odds with the pop music boiling out of the Audiovox radio dangling precariously over the grease pit through which every single menu item would be eventually dragged.
  
  I wondered to myself "Did Franklin Delano Roosevelt dine regularly at The Paradise Grill? Was this a place the former President would swing round to after a dip in the legendary healing waters of Warm Springs?"
  
  My excitement at dining in the footsteps of history was running high.
  
  As the serving hag literally jerked the menu out of my hands and flipped it over to show me the drinks menu, my expectations fell back to earth as I realized that I had in fact stepped into the den of a coven of wizened fishwives, legendary for their murderous skill with a shorthand spatula.
  
  At this point I employed space pirate rule #37: never agitate a cabinperson what has the ability to add mouth drizzle to your plate before it hits the plank in front of you.
  
  Sweet as pie, sweet as pie I were.
  
  "Yes m'am, no m'am, tastes so good!" I responded as a schooled child to a blousy school marm.
  
  My burger? Of the variety you'd expect at a summertime swimming hole. My onion rings? Hard shells of flour around wizened strings of onion-like material, but let's be fair: very few restaurants can accomplish a tasty onion ring that can compare to that of Atlantarrr's Varsity chain of restaurants.
  
  The Paradise Grill at Christmastime is not something that I would recommend to bands of roving gourmands, but I did keep my burger and rings down in me gullet, and truth be told I'd quite like to return in the heat of summertime to experience these fishwives fare as Warm Spring's tourist season returns to full swing.
