We asked what the best sandwiches were and ordered them. So perfect. Just crispy enough to withstand the perfect toppings and yummy roll. Got to go back for the sides.

Very disappointing in all regards. The quality of the chicken was poor. The taste was poor. Too much salt on everything. I think I broke a tooth on the French fries since they were so hard. However, I did like the salad.

Mar 2024:Enjoyed the environment they have a cute jam session of local artists in one section and the other side its more of a band format really talented people with nice tunes to eat your meal. Food to me seems like typical bar food just gets the job done. We had the mac n cheese, (tastes like velvetta if thats the texture you like you’d love it) 1/5, chicken fingers (3/5-the one with honey was the best), broccoli (3/5-tasted like broccoli in an airfryer) for an appetizer, salmon sandwich 3/5 with fries the ranch was the best part.

Seems like it's probably a great place but why closed on WEEKENDS!? Isn't that typically the most profitable time for business!? ?

I ordered chicken sandwich with fries.. the chicken was over breaded and the chicken size was so small nothing special in regard of the taste and it’s way overpriced. First and last time to visit this place. Really

Randomly stopped in at lunch time as I was passing by. Food was terrific and service was friendly. I got the small plate (chicken) original style. It was served quickly. The chicken as well as the sides were very tasty. Amazing potato salad. Well priced meal at $14. I don’t get to that neighborhood often, but would stop again if I do. I didn’t get oysters, but they are Wellfleet’s - the best around.

It wasn’t good what can I say. The chicken was cold and not even a little spicy for the Nashville hot.

This place was packed on a Tuesday night! Probably because of the live music, but we got seated in a different section near the window. The interior felt clean, new, and modern for being a fried chicken joint! Mostly seemed like academic groups dining here.We got the chicken & andouille gumbo and cobb salad with added chicken breast. The gumbo rice portion was small, overall quite liquid-y and lacking interest - just quartered sausage slices and chicken cubes in an oddly dark sauce. This chicken was some of the softest chicken I've ever had, it was more like firm tofu! The cobb salad felt like it didn't have enough of any of the toppings and was mostly lettuce, I was saddened with the super meager sprinkle of feta.We added on a side of onion rings because the gumbo and salad were so lacking and had to go up to the front to order because there weren't any staff manning the area we were sitting in. The onion rings were better, mostly crunchy and crispy, the onions didn't slide out. Paired well with bacon ranch that came with the salad or some vinegar sauce at the table.Will probably come back to try the fried chicken!

Had an excellent business lunch there recently! Raw and fried oysters were both delicious, and the fried oysters were surprisingly good. Lightly fried and very good. Oyster truck even pulled up while we were having lunch. Chicken sandwiches were all great, and the fish and sandwiches got good reviews from our table too. Everyone agreed we would come back soon!The locations is a little tricky, it's on the far side of an office building, but it's definitely a spot worth checking out if you live or work in the area.
