First time here, and we will be back again and again. Food was amazing, staff was amazing, prices are beyond fair and it was very clean. We had fried fish, shrimp, coleslaw and okra. So so good, if you haven't been you must!!!!!!

Food was really good and not very expensive for what they gave you. Service was excellent. Only issue was that the Ac seemed to be out the day we visited but would definitely go again.

The portions are great and very affordable. The staff is friendly and kind. You will leave full and possibly sleepy depending on your appetite. Be warned, the fish pieces are almost filets. I'll be back again sooner rather than later.
