L.J. DEPOT DINER | Lebanon Junction, Kentucky | Restaurant Review

[@philliproupe8967]

Need to bring your Dad more often sure do miss mine.

[@goodallscountrykitchen]

I know. I need to.

[@kybelle457]

Nice to see small town, simple food. No frills, just dependable meals. Quaint, and stopped at a simpler, nice place in time. Brings a smile to my face and warm fuzzies inside. Warms my heart knowing places like this still exist. ❤❤❤❤❤

[@goodallscountrykitchen]

You hit the nail on the head.

[@spbryant]

Highly recommend! I was there today at that restaurant with my twin 13-year old girls. I am from Lebanon Junction, born and raised there, live in Louisville now. I wanted them to experience what it was like to grow up in a small “Mayberry” type of town. So many fond memories.

[@goodallscountrykitchen]

It really is a quaint little town.

[@tfi8308]

That burger looked delicious! Nice to see you & your dad enjoying a meal together. God bless y'all!

[@goodallscountrykitchen]

Thank you!

[@Jerry-hj1lb]

Love your show especially when you have your dad there. Im sure you enjoy all the time you guys spend together. I miss mine everyday. Keep all the good videos coming.

[@goodallscountrykitchen]

Thank you, and yes I do enjoy spending time with my dad on the videos. Creating memories.

[@Haze4Dayz]

Love the father son bonding, you can tell you & ur pops are close! You definitely take after alot of his appearance & mannerisms lol

[@goodallscountrykitchen]

Thank you!

[@karenhalk7542]

The meatloaf on Mondays is the best!!!❤

[@saulgood2548]

Double snapping turtle from pops. Apple doesn’t fall far from the tree. That lock jaw burger looks delicious!

[@goodallscountrykitchen]

It was awesome.

[@jwoody8582]

Would you ever consider having a video where you sit down with your dad and have him tell the story of how Goodall’s Country Store was founded. Where was it located? And a little about yourself. I believe you teach/taught high school? It would be interesting to hear the stories

[@goodallscountrykitchen]

Yes, one day I might. Check out the review if Crystal’s Country Diner. I touch on the story in the opening clip. I give bits and pieces of our story in sone of the videos.

[@lord1557]

Corn Ribs they call 'em. All the rage now. Those look delicious.

First thing I learned to cook as a young whipper-snapper in the '60's was a fried bologna sandwich. That, followed shortly by a grilled cheese sandwich.

[@goodallscountrykitchen]

Your dad kind of resembles Kenny Rogers! Must be the white hair and beard! I can definitely see some similarities in both of your mannerisms! 👍

[@goodallscountrykitchen]

Plus my dad can sing like kenny rogers.

Great video. Wish they had a place like this in Maryland.

[@GBraidi78]

I get excited every time I hear a town named Lebanon lol, since I am Lebanese! I always enjoy watching your videos man and the food looked good! Is the fried Bologna beef or pork and chicken?

[@goodallscountrykitchen]

I’m hoping it was pork. Lol!! Are you from Louisville? I have a lot of Lebanese friends in Louisville. Matter of fact I just had Kubi and salata yesterday..

[@goodallscountrykitchen]

Just to show you how big of a hog I am. I had the kubi and salata as soon as I got home from the review at Lebanon Junction. Lol!!

You should do more food challenges for fun.

[@goodallscountrykitchen]

I’ll do one if I think I have a good chance. I have one coming up that’s a team challenge.

[@mistergrendel32]

I think the server was hiding from the camera? All the food looked great!

[@watsonpaddy]

in regards to a negative comment from a viewer i read the google reviews on this establishment and people raved about the food and service just as Mr. Goodall described

[@goodallscountrykitchen]

Thank you. I have a feeling it is a personal issue between the commenter and business owner.

[@user-kx2dk5sz4r]

Yum😂great job man 👍

I'm curious about that dance you do at the beginning of your videos. Is there some significance to it or do you just love to dance?

[@goodallscountrykitchen]

The significance is that you don’t know nuthin bout those 1980’s moves, and yes, I love to dance. Lol!!

Today?

@@goodallscountrykitchen No it has been a while back . They were recommended by someone. We went in and took our seats they took our drink order, after getting our drinks 3 groups came in the waitress's took their orders. When I asked what was up? The waitress told the others waited ten minutes more then walked out.

@@kimclark6333 I talked to the owner and he told me he had to get rid of a couple of women that just about ruined his business. The problems have been corrected. Give them another shot.

Have you tried Five Broke Girls in Horse Cave, Ky. ?

[@goodallscountrykitchen]

I already reviewed it a couple of years ago and it was good. Went back a couple of months ago and it was by far the worst experience I have ever had in any restaurant. The owner did nothing to make things right. Will never go back. The only reason I left the previous video up was because my kids were so cute in it. Home movie.

[@echoechoecho7142]

Ugh, worst and most overrated place around. 1-2+ hour wait for food, then it shows up ice cold, miserable management, kitchen staff always arguing, food is plain, and their burgers are NOTHING special. Fries cold, onion rings cold, Gravy cold. They need a real manager and someone who has a clue how to work a kitchen. We gave them two chances. Never again.

[@vissitorsteve]

Sorry but that's pre-frozen fried okra. No way hand made fried okra comes out so perfectly round...I still like your channel!

[@goodallscountrykitchen]

Ok, thank you

[@carlzimmerman4341]

I mentioned this previously and you addressed the issue. However the volume on some of your new sponsor segments is significantly louder than your review content and with earbuds it is jarring. I hope you can work on the volume to be consistent for the entire video with the reviews and the sponsor segments including the snapping turtle. I watch all of your reviews and enjoy them sharing with others and influencing visiting the restaurants.

[@goodallscountrykitchen]

Thank you. I’ll work on that sound mixing. Sorry.
