“The staff was very friendly and professional. Quality of food was excellent. Staff go out of their way to take care of large family orders.

Provided a bug order for my father in-law's (Granddaddy Earl) small family gathering. Everyone loved the food. My wife Monica appreciates this place too.. Park chops are so good they taste like Fried chicken 🍗..

“Absolutely love the variety of combos. It allows you to have some of everything in one order. Food was hot and freshly served. Thumbs up on the Mac n cheese, candied yams with my order. They ran out of catfish at the days end today otherwise, It would have been my 2nd consecutive order. Also loved the signature taste of the chicken, and the fact that it was very hot and freshly served. I eat more at home than I do out, but many of their items are like home cooked so I will be back! Much love!“
