“This is such a nice chill spot for delicious fried chicken and cornbread muffins. The bucket of fried chicken was obviously brined because it came out moist and juicy. I purposely tried a drumstick and thigh to test if the cooking time was perfect. It came out perfect and the crust was crunchy. The Fresno chili hot sauce on the table was a great addition to the fried chicken. The cornbread muffins are probably underrated. It's easy to go for the other sides but the muffins had a great crispy exterior and a soft and delicious interior.“

“We had a great experience until they called last call. We asked for one more drink when we she said we can only do shots. We purposely wanted mixed shots such as lemon drops and green tea shots. She told us we can only do well shots… really rude and doesn’t make a lot of sense.“
