Brad H.

WOW.. awesome fried chicken! Excellent flavor and comes out super hot. The sides are great too, especially the cole slaw. It's reasonably priced.. $12 or $13 for a full plate w/ 2 sides. The staff is all super friendly. Our waiter the last two times was a very nice young man. Looking forward to going again

I got the 3 wing plate w/ Mac and cheese and collards. My daughter got the chicken fingers and fries which she only ate the fries she was not a fan of the chicken. The only gripe I got was my sides was cold and they tasted store bought not home made. The waitress was so sweet and welcoming that I really didn’t mind the wait cause me and my daughter was just relaxing taking in the atmosphere and enjoying ourselves.
