The food was ok my catfish could have cooked a little longer. The Chicken was seasoned well and fried just right. But what did it for me was karaoke and nope I can't sing but I did lol

My dear friend told me about Ruby's. How their chicken tips taste so good and tender.
So, today, I came through to order jerk chicken tip meal with mac n cheese and greens with a corn muffin.
The chicken is super tender, and even tho it comes with jerk sauce, which I would never put it on my meal. I love the way the chicken tastes without the sauce.
The Mac n cheese is delicious, and them greens are tasty. The corn muffin is not my fave, but it...

I love this place! The food is wonderful,I'm a regular & have never been disappointed. The smothered steak & the smothered chicken is delicious the chicken has a crispy surprise up under that smothered glaze.
And those yams & dressing is a must try. The sides don't be skimpy either.
