It's an unassuming place. Beautiful bar to enjoy while you wait for a table. Server was attentive without making is feel rushed. Chicken is OUTSTANDING! Get the Crispies and Pickles too. Cheers
I've been wanting to eat here for over 20 years but it never quite worked out, so on 12/10/2025 I was able to make it happen. A friend of mine grew up near here and raved about the chicken, well finally I was in the area yesterday and got to have it. First be aware if you get there at 4:00 when they open, they do not serve food until 4:40. I was offered some pickles and crumbles as I waited which were good. I ordered the Half Mixed (1/4 light and 1/4 dark). I think it...
This was our first time going here and I felt as though the chicken was very fresh and it was good along with the sauces. The prices were affordable but I do feel as though some of the workers were very rude towards us.
