  We always visit Southern Star when in town. Lon is a very friendly host. The home made food, especially deserts are delicious. The Blue Plate lunch specials are consistently good, always fresh home cooking.The lacey cornbread served with the blue plate can't be beat.  Our server was excellent. She served us quickly and efficiently.
  Our favorites:
  Lacey cornbread.
  Sweet potato fries
  Weekend dinner seafood specials
  Smoked pork chop, ask for BBQ sauce on the side
  Enjoy the side salad served with homemade dressings
  My son says he likes every meal he's ever had

  I usually get the Southern Star salad with blackened chicken (YUM!) but I recently tried the ribs and they were sooo good! They fell off the bone with just the right amount of BBQ Sauce on them. I haven't had anything here I didn't like, The Oreo cheesecake is amazing!

  This place gets a busy lunch crowd! Restaurant has tacky decor, the lighting is to dim in common areas yet to bright at table and place could use a make over. Daily blue plate special comes with 3 veg's, corn bread, desert, and tea. Corn bread very thin over cooked and salty. Tea was good, hand bartered chicken fingers were OK, fries over cooked and macaroni cheese  was not good! Ranch sauce good for dipping. Yellow cake very dense (think corn bread thick) and maybe over cooked icing not too sweet but lacking in flavor. Banana pudding more of a thick custard than pudding, served luke warm with very ripe bananas and meringue on top was clearly over beaten so I didn't like this desert at all!

  I had the blue plate special as usual on lunch visits and it was great as always. The catfish was really good but the cornbread and hush puppies absolutely hit the mark, with the perfect amount of moist to crunchy ratio. If you are in the McRae area and want a good meal in a comfortable setting look no further than Southern Star.

  A popular place judging by the lunch crowd.  They offer a daily meat and 3 lunch special as well as menu items.  My wife had a great catfish dinner that was huge.  I had the daily special which was pot roast on the day we stopped.  My wife's meal came with the side salad which was very creative, huge and very tasty.  My meal was great southern cooking with cornbread that was more like hoecake lace.  Very thin and crisp.  We will definitely stop here again when we are passing this way.
