“Throughly enjoyed my ribeye except what kind of meat was it. Some of it was tough. The garlic butter didn't melt. And being here the second time. Bake potato was cold wouldn't even melt the cheese and not cooked through. Plus my husband asked for the same batter that they used on the shrimp for the fish. Absolutely 💯 perfect . The restaurant need to add it to the menu for fish and Chip with malt vinegar. He comes from England. More business for you“

“I go to the Bessemer City Bojangles location a lot with my girlfriend and every visit I am satisfied and this may be the best Bojangles around. The staff are on it and I always get very delicious food. Once I asked if I could get dirty rice instead of a biscuit, the cashier said that the biscuit just automatically comes with the meal. Which I was ok with, and they were nice enough to get me a small cup of rice and not even charge me for it.“
