“It was pretty good. Food was the saving grace. Was with a large group of over 8 people, so gratuity was automatically added, and they refused to do separate checks. Since it was 3 families. Since the gratuity was already included, the service was average at best. Also, advertise a rewards program but no way to gain rewards since POS system is not set up for it.

Parking: No issues with parking.

Kid-friendliness: Has kids menu.“

“We only went for the corn fritters, but they were as good as we remembered. We ate quite a few right in the waiting area (the restaurant is take-out only) while they were freshly made. So delicious!

Vegetarian options: Other than the corn fritters, bean salad, cole slaw and fries, there really are no vegetarian options. This is not a restaurant for vegetarians.“
