Holy AMAZING! Food was delicious, from our fried catfish to the fried chicken. We can’t say THANK YOU enough for actually seasoning the food! There are too many restaurants in the area that do not season the food, which is essential! We ordered to go and we live a good 15 minutes away. Even when we got it home, the food was wonderful. Surprisingly affordable for the large portions of food. Wish there were more tables and chairs to sit and dine in. The staff was courteous when taking our Togo order over the phone and very friendly when we arrived to pick up. Location appeared to be clean, just wish there was a warmer seating atmosphere, even if it’s “counter order” (no waitress needed). Love, love, love! We will definitely be coming back. Soooo bummed they are closed Sundays lol.

A large piece of flounder on sliced white bread. It gave it a old school vibe and the fish was hot, too big for the sandwich and the slaw rounded it out nicely. The fries had a little seasoning salt and were hot, just way I like it. Service was quick and polite. Reasonable prices. Definitely going back! More
