Everything here was so good and tasteful. Chicken was amazing and juicy, an if you know anything about chicken a breast can dry out fast. Not the case here, I also received amazing and fast service from the young lady in the front with braids. Boy her hands are fast.I didn't get her name but she was able to give myself and a large line of people amazing service in a timely manner. Only thing I wish to changed would be more seating.

Great service and consistency with food quality. Nice small location and they make you feel at home as soon as you enter the restaurant.

Charles has some delicious chicken and sides! Love their food. But the service at 125th street location sucks. The young ladies who were serving the food were in the not friendly nor welcoming. I was rushed to order they packed my big order in one bag that broke right away . Rushed service just so they can gossip and be on theirs phones.

This would be a 0 star in GA. Dry chicken, greens were barely edible, and not sure what we ate but it wasn't cornbread.

SO BASICALLY 4 STARS DUE TO PRICES & PORTIONS. FOR $17.95 YOU GET 2 DRUMSTICKS & 1 WING DRENCHED IN AN AMAZINGLY DELICIOUS GRAVY CALLED SMOTHERED CHICKEN, BUT THE DRUMSTICKS & WINGS ARE SMALL AF... I WAS ? CUZ I WAS HOPING FOR ATLEAST BIGGER PIECES OR BONELESS CKN. BUT LET'S MOVE ON TO THE SIDES. THE PORTIONS ARE CONSIDERED AVERAGE.. MAYBE IT APPEARS SMALLER BECAUSE THEY PLACE THEM IN THOSE PLASTIC CONTAINERS.YET MY DAUGHTER WHO LOVES TO CRITIZE EVERYONE'S FOOD SAID "MA...THE MAC & CHEESE IS ? ?!! THE COLLARDS ARE RIDICULOUSLY DELICIOUS ?....AND FOR MYSELF IT WAS THE BEST CORNBREAD I'VE EVER EVER HAD HANDS DOWN!!!...LIKE I DON'T MESS W/ CORNBREAD LIKE THAT YET I'D DRIVE FROM DA BRONX LIKE I DID LAST NITE JUST 4 THAT CORNBREAD. **SERVICE WAS OUTSTANDING...THERE WAS A YOUNG BALD GENTLEMAN WORKING, HE WAS AS SWEET AS THE YAMS. VERY POLITE, HELPFUL & IT APPEARED HE WAS BY HIMSELF WORKING THE FRONT & THEN HE GOT A LINE OF PPL COMING IN AT 9P.M YET HE WAS ABLE TO HANDLE IT NO PRESSURE. SO ALL-IN-ALL DESPITE THE FACT THAT THEY ARE A BIT PRICEY I WILL ATEST THAT THE QUALITY OF FOOD DEFINITELY MADE UP FOR IT. DO I BELIEVE THEY NEED TO EITHER ADD ANOTHER PIECE OF CKN TO THEIR MEALS * ABSOLUTELY * WILL THEY?? PROBABLY NOT ? ? ?Parking: LOCATION IS 125TH STREET. I GOT LUCKY IT WAS AFTER HOURS JUST IN CASE I MISSED PAYING FOR THE STUPID METER. BUT WE ALL KNOW THAT IF U SIT IN UR CAR FOR ATLEAST 5-10 MINUTES PPL R ALWAYS COMING & GOING SO UR BOUND TO GET A SPOT

I live near the pan fried chicken on 145th and still go to this one. Jason, Naomi and Julene were wonderful, just like the food.

This is some good ole southern food?! Fried chicken 20 stars!!! I’ve been to this place 3 times already, I always get the veggie plate, which is 4 sides. I get greens, cabbage, black eye peas, & pot salad or string beans. Now normally I don’t get nobody’s pot salad because since our generational grandmothers have all passed away , no one can do it right ?…. But baby pan fried did ?.. I was impressed?. Somebody over 40 made that pot salad ?. The only thing I haven’t taste , was the Mac n cheese ( my heartburn be killing me ) I can’t do all those cheese at this age & the yams. The honey they use to put on the chicken is good ( I had mines on the side ) & the cheesecake is good good good !!!?. The staff is really friendly, from the front to the back. Very nice black owned business ❣️

Food is delicious, but service sucks so bad. In person the workers are super rude and act like they hate their lives. No greeting, texting on their phone while people are waiting to order. Delivery is just as bad. Ordered delivery and the order never showed up, called the restaurant five times and they never pickup the phone. What’s going on?

I ordered three chicken legs. When I opened the carton, it was clear the chicken was a day old from the look. It had zero taste. Normally, I enjoyed the food from this place, but I won't be ordering again anytime soon because this is the second time I got an order that was not worth the price.

Service was slow and gettto... they had nothin left at 9;30... ambiance was clean ... Food was good

Mr M.

They treat the Asian customers with prejudice, serving them smaller pieces, burnt pieces. Not getting our business again. They discriminate, don't give them your money.

The best friend chicken in town! Classical soul food. The pan friend chicken is very delicious. Not very greasy at all. The mashed potatoes were great too. I was sad that they ran out of cornbread. It's a small place with 3 window seats to eat but well worth the food!
