I've only eaten here once, so have not had enough of the menu to say too much, but what I did eat - fried chicken, macaroni and a side salad - were just okay. I'm not a big fan of dark meat chicken so I got a breast, which ended up being boneless so not as juicy as bone-in. The sides were also decent but not great. There was a lot of other food on the menu that looked interesting, but I was in the mood for chicken that night. Also noticed some daily specials on a chalkboard, so that might be worth checking out in the future. I also had a very good bread pudding for dessert and that took me over the $20 mark. I feel like it's a little pricey for what I received, but not unusually so.

Had a delicious meal with my son! I had the ox tail and he had Noah’s seafood platter. We were both very happy with our selection and the service was great as well! Highly recommend!

Every bite at Shugs Southern Soul Express feels like coming home. From the first forkful of shrimp-and-grits to the golden, crispy wings and the delicate crab cake, the food hits the perfect note of Southern comfort. The dishes are clearly prepared with care — the textures are spot on (think crispy edges, tender interiors, just-right seasoning), and the flavors balance richness, spice, and freshness in a way that makes every mouthful satisfying.

Presentation on cluster of crabs was unappealing to say the least. A substitution for potato instead of corn really made no sense with a charge.When the potatoes were tiny! Wow! I purchased the rib brunch also.Ribs only three pieces were meaty and tasty.A substituati of green mixed veggies were not appealing at all. My entire purchase was $67. Watch a Tic Tock review with caution, This customer can see that they are struggling! I wish them well, however I won't be back!

Shug’s is unreal. Best fried chicken I’ve had anywhere — perfectly crispy, juicy, and consistently excellent every single time. The staff are genuinely kind, the vibe is casual and welcoming, and it’s the kind of place that becomes part of your routine fast. Absolute local gem.

We had a wonderful experience at Shug's! From the moment we walked in, the staff was very welcoming and incredibly friendly, which really enhanced our visit. The service was fantastic. Our food was also really really good, everything tasted fresh and well-prepared. Overall, we highly recommend Shug's and can't wait to go back!
Just moved from nh in may, just looking for a quick bite before bed and this is less than a mile from my house so I figured why not.. absolutely no regrets, place was clean staff was friendly smiling and interacting with the customers 😀 10/10 I got the big fish sandwich, the fish was cooked perfect crunchy outside but soft and flavorful inside, I have never tried fried okra, but for this being my first time i love it ! Cornbread was warm, soft and airy not dense and dry! I will absolutely be coming back ! I even took a picture of the after math of my hunger against great food

First time eating here. Ordered the pork chops, hushpuppies, corn on the cob, and corn bread. My wife ordered the fried shrimp and collard greens. It was all amazing. We finished with the chocolate cake.
The staff was fantastic!
