    Me and my co driver stopped in a TA in wildwood fl. waiting to go to a shipper. It was around 11pm and we hadnt ate yet so we went in to the country pride they had. for record it was not a buffet one. we sat down and the waitress looked at us and spent the next ten minutes talking to her friend before coming over to wait on us. She spent the whole time acting like it was a hassle to wait on us. there were mb 4 tables in there and she never came by to check on anyone. I asked for mayo and never got it. A guy at another table had to get up and ask for a refill on his drink and still had to wait on it. the salad was old and turning and made my co driver sick. the soup was mostly broth. dont waste ur time and money here guys

    The gaitor is good but I prefer the fried toad sticks. The breaded ones are even better and with some Tobasco you can't get any better.

    In my experience....Some waitresses just can't handle it when it's slow.....They act like you are a pain because you showed up....Now when it's busy they will hustle..It's like they just Hate Your Tip.....

    Only problem I have ever had at that place was finding a parking spot:hmph:. Food has always been good, not real cheap, but I can see where having a waitress problem could occur, especially late at night. Happens sooner or later at nearly place I frequent:!:. Next time please tell somebody before you leave:director:.
