    If you want the best biscuits, mashed potatoes, and everything southern and beyond, come to Colleen's Kitchen in Mueller!! The wait staff are extremely friendly, knowledgeable, and efficient. You'll want to keep coming back for more!

    I used to love Coleen’s kitchen, but feel they’ve gone downhill. Our favorite bacon wrapped dates had very fatty bacon that wasn’t cooked all the way but still managed to taste dry. The pork chop was super dry. Maybe they could get their eye back on the ball!

    We ordered a variety of entrees and appetizers. We ordered the buttermilk biscuits, which did not disappoint and the deviled eggs, also great! The biscuits are large and can easily be split and shared. We ordered the shrimp and grits, Green Goddess salad and the crab Benny. All were delicious. I appreciate they offer half orders. The Bloody Mary was spicy and refreshing. Our server was attentive, even though it was Mother’s Day and the restaurant was crowded. Will definitely go again!

    Deviled eggs, fried green tomatoes and fried chicken biscuits were all delicious! We were a group of six and all of us loved our brunch selections.

    After paying to reserve my reservation for Mother’s Day and checking in before my allotted reservation time, the hostess would not seat us while the 2 remaining guests of our party were parking and reluctantly and rudely seated us after I noted that I wanted to have starters and drinks on the table when my MIL arrived for this meal. It was not a pleasant start to the meal. The food was good but the biscuits and gravy I ordered were lukewarm warm when they arrived to the table as was my husbands sandwich. We ordered 1 orange juice and it was delivered to the table, later in the meal another was brought by a different waitress saying we ordered another, which we had not, they told us to keep it and comped it which I feel was the correct thing to do but the whole meal experience on Mother’s Day was subpar.
