Just got some Rib tips, Mac n cheese, and yams.. Overall delicious - Yams taste more like stuffing - Mac N cheese is better than expected. Rib tips sauce is sweet but delicious. Definitely will try more and will need to get more from the menu. The people working there are super nice. Plus while you wait u can get a free cup of coffee/tea/hot chocolate. IF you are on the fence of trying it - just go in and try it. LOTS of food for the price so even though it is a little pricey WELL worth the value.
REPLY to the Owner: I ordered three (3) entrées today for THREE (3) people. I dont get how that is a difficult concept for you to understand. Renee, my mother (who you literally called a liar for leaving her own review, accusing me of "recruiting" a person to write a phony review) left HER OWN review based on HER opinion of HER food that I came into your restaurant to pick up while she waited in my car for almost 30 more minutes after we had called in our order. I have waaaayyy more intergrity than to stoop so low as having someone write phony reviews. My mom actually dined with you before and enjoyed the food and experience. SHAME ON YOU for providing a poor experience to customers and then arguing with/falsely accusing them through review comments. I hardly ever leave reviews, but felt it appropriate as when I requested to cancel my order in person (my initial solution) the staff practically had a fit as if I was wrong to want to do so. If the long wait was poor communication, why no
My visit & I'll definitely be returning. Got the Chicken Pasta Jerk Bowl & had shrimp added. Alfredo sauce made from scratch, very delicious dish...
