Most Authentic Comfort Food

C-5 Steakhouse

With no disrespect intended toward our town's reigning kings of Southern comfort food, this unassuming West Lake cafe just has pure, unaffected "home" cooking. Burgers, chicken-fried steak, and fried catfish make up much of the regular menu; items such as chicken & dumplings, spaghetti & meatballs, and liver & onions appear as daily specials. We love to order the house salad, which comes topped with grated Swiss cheese and creamy Italian dressing. The food is very simple but well-prepared, making C-5 a good place for families. And trust us, you'll want to stay for a grandma-worthy dessert, such as coconut cream pie or chocolate cake.
