“BEST DAMN CHICKEN I HAD IN A VERY LONG TIME!!!!
I don't live anywhere near Birmingham, but when I have to go to Birmingham airport, I make sure I stop here for the chicken and tamales.
The food is ALWAYS hot and seasoned to perfection. The chicken is so juicy and crunchy 😋
The tamales has great flavor and hot.
Oh, don't skip out on the fried fish. Ordered fish for my parents and they fell in love and demanded I get some more the next day. 😆“

“generally we had a good experience. food was good. the new York strip steak was surprisingly good, cooked right, juicy and well seasoned. Madison was terrific service wise. I did note a number of deficiencies at the management level. we had to wait about 10 min. for my wife's decaf coffee, none was ready. also had to wait until almost the end of our dinner for biscuits, none were ready on time. I was very disappointed that the only sugar free drink options were Coke Zero and sugar free Coke. there were sprite and Dr. Pepper available, but not sugar free. used to have sugar free bottled root beer, but no longer. also used to have NSA apple pie, but no longer and no other options. all of these things mean a lot to a diabetic. Madison tried her best and did great, especially when my Coke Zero had a strange taste to it, she got me a sugar free right away. CB has succeeded in removing a lot of the reasons I ate there. you'll always have my wife because of the biscuits, unless your kitchen organizer doesn't have them on hand.“
