Really good chicken. Good bread. Service was nice but understaffed (they noted). I had beans and fries and both were not great so I'll pass on that next time. I'd go again though!
January 2025
Not kid friendly. All the chicken is spicy. I didn't order anything spicy but, it was too spicy for the kids. I like spicy but it was a little dry for my taste. It looked and tasted a little overcooked. The Mac n cheese is OK except the way they dump paprika on there makes it taste like dirt. The potato salad is very nasty. I think it has sugar in it.
