The Original Doe’s Eat Place was established in 1941 by Dominick “Doe” Signa and his wife Mamie. Doe’s Father moved to Greenville in 1903 and opened a grocery store in the building that now serves as their first original restaurant. The family lived in a house behind the store. The grocery which the Signa Family called Papa’s Store did well until the 1927 flood. After that, Big Doe Signa went into bootlegging to help the family get back on its feet. After several years he sold his 40 barrel still for $300.00 and a Model T Ford. Around 1941 Mamie received a partial recipe for hot tamales. She improved the recipe and began selling them. That was the beginning of Doe’s. At first Signa ran a honky tonk in the front part of the store. One of the local doctors began coming for a meal between calls. Big Doe would cook him up a steak and feed him in the back. Pretty soon the doctor brought another doctor then a lawyer and before he knew it Doe had a regular restaurant in the back. After calling in family and in-laws to help with his thriving restaurant, he eventually closed the honky tonk and focused on the original Doe’s Eat Place. Yesterday’s traditions still carry on today....homemade tamales, big juicy steaks cooked to order and the sharing of great steaks just like they did in 1941! Great food....old traditions and the best steaks in town....Doe’s Eat Place!
LUNCH MENU Lunch served: Mon. - Fri. 11 am - 2 pm Dinner served: Mon. - Sat. 5 pm - 9 pm
WELCOME TO DOE’S EAT PLACE Our steaks are cut fresh in house from whole beef loins. Each loin is aged at least 21 days to bring out all of the flavor a fine cut of beef has to offer. Because we cut all of our meat fresh daily instead of buying pre-cut frozen meat, it is possible that all cuts and sizes may not be available all of the time. This allows us to provide you with the highest quality, freshest beef possible. We cut our DOE’S steaks much thicker than at most other restaurants. After our Grillmaster places your steak on our special broiler, please allow time for our staff to prepare one of the “Great Steaks of the South”.
