my boss brought myself and my coworker out to eat here today it was amazing the food was wonderful the service was great!

Random stop on our way back to Iowa. We could not have picked a better yet place to get food at. Everything is 10/10!

I would not recommend!! meat is dry with no flavor. my wife got two pieces of catfish for $15 ! potato salad is horrible, they never have beans and never have banana pudding.
