The atmosphere may be unassuming, but the flavors will transport you to a place of warmth and nostalgia. Twanette Henry captures this sentiment perfectly, complimenting the staff and their delightful chicken just before closing time. Even Erica Hogan mentions that while the service may be a tad slow, the generous portions and delectable food are worth every second of anticipation.

“ Not a dine-in place. Take out only and line forms quickly. But there is a pretty wide selection of plates and sides to choose from. My food was great. Short-ribs are only served on Sunday so I took advantage of that since this is the day I went to visit them. Service was fast once you are able to order your food, everything was piping hot. ”
