    This was my third time resting at this restaurant. The first time was chicken and waffles and I didn’t care for it. But the second time I had the Autumn Harvest Bowl and a side of Mac and cheese… to die for! I loved it so much I had it again last week. I tried making a similar recipe at home but it just can’t compare!! I HIGHLY recommend both!!!

    We cleaned our plates! The new sorghum pepper fried chicken was great. Our old standard of the honey dusted fried dark meat chicken was, as always, fabulous. We alllll had the collard greens- yummy! I tried the chicken tortilla soup as a side & I can't wait to have it again. Your sweet tea is the best in this area. (Being from the South, we think we're experts!)

    Overall a good experience, but the restaurant was out of the wine that we ordered and out of the sweet tea chicken. The mahi mahi had good flavor but was tough and overcooked. The server brought the bill and didn’t offer us dessert.

    We had the best waiter, he was so attentive, timely & helpful. Was a little disappointed in the pineapple sangria, a lot of ice in the drink took away from the flavor. Food came quickly for how busy they were & was very good. Everyone I dined with liked the variety of the menu. Overall, we really enjoyed ourselves.
