“ Ok this isn't going to be on food network anytime soon...........but it should great food at a great price. Family owned, clean excellent value, and super nice people. Its nice to see a place where you can just friggin eat and not have to navigate Achim's Razor. Lots of gravy, gluten, meat, stuff fried, baked, on a steam table and again just drop dead delicious. I'm in Perry almost once a month and they're open reasonable times. If you get a chance to stroll down Gen Courtney Hodges hope your travels take you here. ”
“ I waited 300 miles all day to have some southern cooking and The Oil Lamp served it up right! It's cafeteria style and being a Yankee I was overwhelmed with the choices. I went with the fried chicken, mashed potatoes, stuffing, turnips, black eyed peas, and pecan pie. It was all really good. And the price was about what you'd pay for dinner somewhere else. The young ladies running the counter and serving the tables were very pleasant and helpful! We were driving to Florida from Indiana and I found this on the map. Glad we made the choice to stop. ”
“ Went through Georgia recently and the ladies at the Visitor Center recommended Oil Lamp in Perry. Yum!! So good. Roast beef with all the good sides. When in Perry, Georgia Oil Lamp is excellent. The ladies offered to heat my pie too and add ice cream!! The pie was good on its own. We will definitely be back whenever we are in a Perry again.. ”
“ Excellent home cooking. Cafeteria style. Lots of choices. The ambiance was a little lacking, but the staff were friendly and helpful ”
