Stomachs only growl when they're hungry or preparing to bite the hand that keeps tickling them. Tame the beast within with today’s Groupon: for $5, you get $10 worth of home-style fare at Al Smith’s Place.

The chefs at Al Smith’s Place sear a menu of home-style comfort fare served with Southern-style fixings and slathered in homemade gravy. Sink forks into generous slabs of slow-cooked meatloaf, speckled with peppers and onions and drizzled in homemade beef gravy ($7.69), or try the juicy slices on a sandwich ($5.99) for easy consumption in the event of a utensil strike. A plate of old-fashioned chili mac ($5.50) heaps homemade chili with onions and cheddar cheese, and a spread of burgers and sandwiches ($3.49–$7.25) jazzes up ordinary bread with thinly sliced rib-eye, crispy fried chicken, and half-pound beef patties. A served-all-day breakfast selection lets diners reclaim mornings spent rehearsing scripted dinner conversations with skyscraping stacks of pancakes ($4.29) or golden brown Belgian waffles ($3.99) dripping with butter and syrup. Al’s breakfast special ($6.79) combines three sausage links or strips of bacon with three eggs, home fries, and two buttermilk biscuits crowned with homemade sausage gravy to sate hearty hankerings.
