Topping the list is Some Da Eat, which boasts four stars out of 151 reviews on Yelp. Located at 6586 Tidewater Drive in Inglenook, the Southern spot — which offers soul food and comfort food (entrees such as fried pork chops with mac and cheese, and sides such as collards/cabbage) — is the highest-rated inexpensive Southern restaurant in Norfolk.  

2. Terrie's Breakfast & Lunch

Next up is Idlewood/Sandy Heights's Terrie's Breakfast & Lunch, at 3320 N. Military Highway. With four stars out of 10 reviews on Yelp, the traditional American, breakfast/brunch and Southern spot has proven to be a local favorite for those looking for a low-priced option. 

3. Cagney's Chicken & Seafood Eatery
