Picked up 16 pc along with baked beans and coleslaw. Although the price is on the high side, the quality and quantity helps to close the price gap. I think their spice blend is perfect and the chicken is definitely hot and fresh. IMO, best chicken in Phoenix area.

I have never been to this place in person, but we order from there all the time. The fried chicken is fantastic. Truly a walk into southern cooking. The potato salad and Mac and cheese are excellent. My wife prefers the cole slaw, but this isn't about her. The beans are the star of the show of the menu. Something about that spicy fried chicken with those sweet smoky beans. Fantastic. I would recommend this place to anyone, including my Cole slaw loving wife.

1st visit.. Not impressed. Was in the area and wanted a small meal. I expected some place like this to have counter service to find out that this very casual place has table service. With everything costing so much right now, I pick and choose when I want to eat somewhere with table service. Let's be honest, 15% plus tipping gets quite expensive. I decided to order it to go and I would just eat it in the car. The young man at the cash register who took my order was very friendly...
