This is the perfect place to enjoy an intimate meal with your closest friends. Word of Mouth is a very, very small restaurant and the owners like it that way. The space is meant to be as comfortable as your own home.

Everything here is made from scratch. Owners Steven and Becky have decades in the restaurant business, and it shows. They use time-tested recipes, and always source the best ingredients.

The owners prepare every single plate that leaves the kitchen. While they could certainly hire a chef, they prefer to pour all their love and attention into every dish themselves.

The house specialty is the Incredible Flying Biscuit. It’s a tender, flaky biscuit with buttermilk fried chicken, a fried egg, two thick slices of bacon, and melted cheddar. It’s covered with rich, sausage gravy and served with Yukon gold smashed potatoes. Yum!

The Heavenly Breakfast Hash is another favorite here. Those delicious Yukon gold potatoes are paired with a host of chopped veggies and served alongside two eggs and breakfast bread.

Breakfast is served all day long, so you can basically have brunch every day they’re open.
