They have build your own biscuit on Sundays so I got a biscuit with honey chicken, cheese, avocado, and just egg. They honey chicken is what shined. The biscuit itself was good but hard to eat because it crumbled easily. Side of hushpuppies was yum too and got herb mayo which was perfect with them. Was plenty of food. I probably could have just had the biscuit and been plenty full. Updated from previous review on 2025-12-15

I had the Drumstix plate with the Soul Mac and Hush Puppies..I haven't had hush puppies in years! Everything was sooooo good..the southern fried Drumstix were seasoned perfectly and nice and crispy, the mac was creamy, the hush puppies were crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. The ranch and hot honey were the perfect compliment, best I've tasted! I will definitely be making a trip back.

Unfortunately this business had a break in the night before we stopped by, but the folks working were so kind and accommodating they barely let it affect them. The absolute best vegan food in the triangle and some of the very best sandwiches- vegan or not.
