It was late morning and only had 15 minutes left before breakfast time ended but they prepared a great breakfast of hash browns, cheese eggs, grits bacon and sausage with your choice of biscuits or toast.

“Overall this place was pretty good. The catfish was amazing & fresh. Wings were good, along with the onion rings. The only thing I'd suggest a hard pass on is the fries. The fries were a waste, no flavor/ seasoning.

Not really a sit down and eat food spot. The interior was very cute, lots of items for sale.“

“I called to inquire about catering an event. I was unsure what to order. The sweet lady that helped me was incredible! I believe she said she was the manager. My order was ready when I picked it up and exactly as promised! Our event was wonderful and everyone bragged on the chicken salad! (Classic Carol and Fancy Nancy) Thank you for even going the extra mile with the croissants!“

“The best chicken since my Grandmothers' !!!! This experience is the best. I have had some good chicken from Canes'---I lived in Baton Rouge for many years--but Cowboy's is the best by far. The personnel working there are all awesome, making for a great experience all around. The experience of eating good food is quite hard to find in this day and time. Please convey to everyone that is associated that they are well thought of, and I convey that to everyone I know. Thanks again!!“

“Everyone,
If you haven’t tried Golden Wok and you love Chinese, you’re simply missing out!!! My personal favorite is the Spicy Bourbon. The prices are most definitely reasonable and the portions are WAY above average. You taste the freshness in everything you eat there. To top it off the staff is super courteous. If I’m in the mood for Chinese, this is my number #1 in the Locust Grove/McDonough area!!! Try them out.“
