As a southerner the fried chicken was not even close to what I would expect. Oil needed to be changed. Greens needed to be braised longer. Maybe we just came on the wrong day.
My wife and I celebrated my 66th birthday here today. The chicken dinner was amazingly good. The service was great and the vibe was lovely. Highly recommend.
What a true treat !!! Real Southern fried chicken! Great greens and try the corn salad it was refreshing and delicious! A little pricey but the flavor and outstanding service made it with it ! Cozy atmosphere!
