We chose this restaurant before going to a see "Wicked". Fast service and the food was so good. We choose the carolina bbq with coleslaw and beans. I didn't want to pay $15 for hush puppies but I did- do it!! Do not hesitate!! They were the best I've ever had!! The service was delightful from beginning to end!

The staff was great and accommodating. It was way too hot and loud in the restaurant. Also, I was really disappointed that the restaurant didn't use separate grease for seafood and non-seafood items considering people's allergic reactions. Thus, I was let able to get what I went for which was the fried chicken.
