La Donia is always accommodating and professional. She greets you with a smile and goes throughout the restaurant to make sure everyone has everything they need! Definitely an asset to the Cottonpatch family! ♥️

February 2026

Service was fine. The food was nothing special. The chicken fried chicken (classic size) felt quite small, especially seeing their was a small size. It was 14.99 for the meal. The side portions also felt small. Coast about $20 for one person for this meal and an iced tea. Way overpriced for taste and portion size. The chicken wasn’t overly tender for the price and the batter on the chicken wasn’t anything special. Would not eat again.

It's was alright. I however ordered the Turkey Dinner and they gave me a lot of skin and not much meat. It was tough, so my dog got a treat. Also they put brown gravy on the turkey and stuffing, but put white gravy on my mashed potatoes, that was weird. Service was good though.
