The fried biscuits (more of a dessert) were incredible.

I got the fried catfish and cheese grits. Also top notch. Highly recommend

The staff was extremely helpful and explained every item I inquired about. I tried the fried lobster and it was so good. This was my 1st visit there and was pleasantly taken care of and the food was absolutely delectable.

Stopped in after going to Give Me Some Sugah bakery which is right next door and purchased the whiting dinner. I was very pleased with my purchase. The food was well seasoned, delicious. The fish wasn't fried too hard, the potatoes were delicious and I don't eat collard greens, but they were great. This is NOT fast food and I will be back. Give our brother your business.

I’m from Houston and visiting. A friend recommended the Hennessy wings from here. I called in an order for the wings and fried biscuits, and my food was ready for pick-up in about 20-25 minutes. I couldn’t wait and dove in right there! The wings were perfectly crisp, even with the coating, and cooked through beautifully. The Hennessy flavor was subtle yet still full of flavor. The fried biscuits? My god! 🤤🤤 The service was awesome. All around a solid place with great food and service. Highly recommend!
