Visited this place on a whim, and got to say I was not disappointed. Had the Jambalaya, Pork Tip ribs, Okra and the mash potato with two cocktails. The food arrived very fast, which made me think maybe it wouldn't be as good but boy was i...Read More

We came in for a late lunch and decided to order appetizers instead. We had The Onion straws, the fried green tomatoes, the pork burnt ends, and the cauliflower bites. All excellent!

Amazing service by Miss Kennadie and even more amazing food. When I say there wasn't one thing on my plate that wasn't to die for I mean it. I usually don't eat all my food but this was so good I couldn't stop eating.
