Well, I ate there 2 or 3 years ago. It was ok. just ok. From what I remember it was pretty typical of the many many meat and 3 Ive eaten at through the years here in the deep south where I have lived my whole life. (I dont think it is classified as a "meat and 3", but that's what it was like to me.) Let me tell ya, I love these kind of establishments...but Im used to spending between 5 and 8 dollars for a big good meal.
Ive never watched Paula, Ive just seen clips. (Im embarrassed to say her accent is a little strong for me. Shameful, huh, coming from a girl from Birmingham?

) So I cant really comment on her cooking or recipes. I have seen enough to know she's not trained in the culinary arts. This, of course, doesn't (and shouldn't) preclude her from cooking, owning a restaurant, publishing a cookbook, or even having a show on Food TV. Good for her.
