We have been there many times. The food is always delicious. The service was outstanding. The two ladies I was with both order the boneless catfish with baked potato and Cole slaw. I had a naked tenderloin with a salad and fries. I debated whether to say anything, but the Friday night singer shouldn't quit his day job, just saying.
