Always fantastic! Crispy (not hard), flavorful skin, with Incredibly juicy, tender meat on the inside. Chicken has a bit of a kick, but it’s not an overwhelming spice. The fried green tomatoes and fried pickle spears are almost worth the trip themselves. Great service, very friendly, and low turnover. Have seen the same faces for the last 5 years we’ve come. You will not be disappointed!

The food is actually delicious and the service was wonderful. I rated this 1 star simply so readers would check the review. The chicken is UBER spicy. If you don't like hot sauce, you'll hate it. The dark meat is even spicier than the white meat... And the greens are spicy. . And the okra..... My husband loved it. And it was really well cooked/prepared but simply too spicy for me to enjoy. That said, if you can handle the heat, this is definitely a kitchen to check out !!

I have to say they had some of the best fried chicken I've ever tasted. I got the chicken tenders and they were huge I can usually eat a lot but could only eat like 4 of the tenders. They are spicy but not too spicy so most people shouldn't have a problem with the heat. They also had good sides. I got there 10 minutes before they opened on a Thursday and there was already a lined forming luckily we got a seat right away. Soon after it was packed so keep that in mind. They also had good sweet tea as well and good service!

easily the best fried chicken we've ever eaten. we're originally from India and used to great spices, so you can imagine us giving 5 star to this place. chicken is marinated really well, crispy, spicy, flavor goes all the way through. Served HOT and prices affordable. It's a crowded place, but worth the wait. good service, definitely worth reviews and the stop

I was in town for one night and was told I needed to go get BBQ, I'm glad I went and got fried chicken instead. Everything I ate here was fantastic, the Mac and Cheese did not disappoint at all. Do yourself a big favor though, save room for the pie. It was magical and I'm very glad I gave in to temptation. My waitress was always nearby and very friendly too.
