This place was a breath of fresh air. Walking in it was very very clean, everyone greeted us as we walked in, was very polite and well mannered. Service was crazy fast, the food was delicious and I couldn’t be happier to finally walk into a restaurant, encounter polite inviting folks and eating food that did not disappoint. This is something that has been lacking lately and I was close to throwing in the towel with eating in town, but this place made my day. The Burger was perfect, the Chicken was very crunchy, juicy and delicious, yes it could have had a little more seasoning but the quality of the chicken compensated very well, the dirty rice was perfect, perfect, perfect. I don’t care what you go here to order, get a side of dirty rice and try it, you wont be disappointed. The onion rings were awesome and the fries were simple but crunchy and fresh. Check this place out if you’re looking for something new and fairly priced.

My husband and I decided to stop here after a Google search and I ordered the 3pc chicken and mash and my husband had the burger and fries.. from the moment we walked in we were greeted with a warm welcome cashier was so very nice and place was clean.. it took 10 mins to bring out our order and I love that. You can tell it’s a family owned place cause there’s so much love in the food that’s provided .I definitely will be back every time I come this way ... I wish you guys lots of success y’all are definitely amazing in my book

Those double meat hamburgers are very tasty and always fresh. My kids love their chicken nuggets b/c they are made out of real chicken. If you want fresh and homemade this is your place
