Christian J.

Very nimble service, our server was very hospitable and attentive. The vibes of this place is great! Highly recommend checking The Chicken our. Nashville Chicken Tenders were great, but the Southwestern Eggrolls were just fine. I do wish there was more diversity in appetizer options.

Husband & I had a date night Sunday. We ate here for dinner before watching the lunar eclipse. Our server was Olivia & she was awesome. She seemed very happy & like she enjoyed her job. Everything came out fast, hot & sooooo good. This was our first time here & we will definitely be back.

Raymond K.

Very good food. I had the fried chicken. It was a little bland, but well-cooked with delicious sides. My friend had chicken strips with cream gravy over mashed potatoes that was so good, I resolve to order it next time. The mashed potatoes tasted homemade and the corn was very good. The service was above average and the place was cozy, pleasant, and right on the bike trail. I will definitely go back. Kid-friendliness: No reason kids wouldn't enjoy this place. Parking: Plenty.
