Drove 3 hours just to try the chicken and then 3 hours back. Did not disappoint. Crispy, flavorful skin. The meat was juicy. Ate till it almost hurt. Cornbread was a touch too dry. Love the atmosphere.

The fried chicken was fabulous! We also loved the collard greens and cornbread. Buffet choices were great. Their cobbler with ice cream was sooo tasty. Our server was nice and friendly.

Small selection on the buffet for $50 plus. Bathrooms were not clean. The restaurant was dusty. I mean I could have written my name in the dust. Spider webs underneath the chairs. The server was nice and friendly. Stopped because of the high reviews but I was extremely disappointed. We will not be back.

Sign and Google said OPEN. Came at 11 and was told it'd be at least 30 minutes before any food was ready. While in the sour scented bathroom, HUNDREDS of gnats were living their best lives inside the only working urinal!! Definitely gone way downhill since the last time I went there. And $20 per person for a nonexistent buffet.

I watched a video of a Youtuber visiting this restaurant, all I gotta say is it is such a cool and lovely place! The owner seems very friendly and I am hoping one day I will be visiting this restaurant!

First time stopping here in years...and I mean like 15 years plus since I moved away for college. I stopped by with my husband (whose not a local) and the young lady there was friendly (reason the atmosphere got a 3 rating)and welcoming unlike the owner. The owner was very short with us like we were bothering him and just had a nasty disposition all together. I thought maybe it was my perception but after speaking with other locals about my experience this is normal with this gentleman if you're of a certain skin complexion...ie not caucasian and no the owner is not caucasian. The chicken was flavorful but not the best I've ever had. Would've probably stopped there again if I was treated like a customer and not a pest.

I travel the state and stop in all kinds of places. I have been by here but never went in. Today I walked in at 1:50 to see what it was. It says restaurant and souvenir mall on the door. I walked in to be greats by a lady that was friendly. I told her I’d love to know the history and if I could look around. She told me sure and went and got the owner. The owner came out and told me it is what you see. Was not interested in talking or letting me look around. Told me he doesn’t let people look around his public place. I kindly left and won’t come back.

Mr. D has been frying chicken in this historic general store for thirty years. He told me he really cooks for himself but lets others enjoy it too!
The fried chicken is the star. Hot, crispy, juicy, seasoned well. The chicken is worth the trip.
The sides are what you expect. Salad bar, has the basics. Vegetable sides are again what you’d expect.
Save room for cobbler on the front end. It’s worth it.
