“Atmosphere was quiet. The service is quick with fresh food. Love the family Atmosphere. The food is made with good seasoning. My sides i had were the red beans and fries. The red beans were good. I would have liked to had rice with it but i didn't ask. The catfish and shrimp had great breading and very crispy. I had the fruit punch and grape kool-aid and they both had the right amount of sugar. I got a chocolate cake and it was moist. I'm SUPER FULL.

You also get a good amount of food for the price. That's a plus for me.“

“They had candy bars on”sale” but they were stale…when I tried to return some later that day at the one on I 35 between Dallas and Waxahachie I had a horrible experience with that MOD there. I had a receipt but because I was a few miles down the road they wouldn’t return it, and not only that but he went on and on about how it would hurt his “record” if he returned anything, even though I had a receipt from that same day 20 miles away. He wouldn’t even return an $.80 purchase. If I just asked for 1 refund. It was a ridiculous experience. I will never go back to that store on I 35. Also that store continued to sell the stale products on his shelf, even though they were told they were stale as well. finally they didn’t ask for my number so I could get points and they clicked the button so quickly for me, I couldn’t put my phone number in so I had to return everything I bought after that and I had to re-purchase it again to get the points. So, I was there at 2 stores to buy a few things for over an hour and the worst customer service at the one on the way to Waxahachie“
