    Regular menu soul food Sunday menu
    Amber K.

    Stopped here on my way back to Dallas, lured in by reviews. The customer service was top-notch--I ordered banana pudding, they ran out, and they promised me a free dessert next time. I changed my side last minute, and they threw in an extra one for free. Then I met the brisket. Dry doesn't even begin to cover it--I thought I was going to have a medical emergency.The green beans were just ok. But the peach cobbler? It was the Beyonce of the meal--absolute perfection. Outside seating, music playing, lots of flies, 10/15 minute wait. Luckily it was a breezy day so it wasn't a bad vibe but I'm sure mid summer it can be brutal. I pass by here a lot so I'll be back to try something else, though. The customer service was a vibe.

    Stopped though here on way home. So glad we did. Soul food Sunday Loaded macaroni (pulled pork) Loaded potato (brisket) Meat plate: brisket, Mac, green beans The wait was well worth it. We sat on a porch and none of us could finish. The meat was so tender, probably the most tender I've had.

    Gooood stuff and just what I needed after 6 months in new york. Brisket was tender and had a good bark. The chicken, my mother in law's order, was something we talked about all day. It was so juicy and flavorful. Plus it was like a half a chicken for 12.50. The sides were also all good. Between 3 of us, we had green beans, ranch beans, potato salad (mustard for the win!). It was hard to pass up the Mac and cheese but new years resolutions and all that stupid stuff. I could have gone for a thinner, spicier sauce but I'm nit picking here. The service was very hospitable and accommodating. The daily specials looked really intriguing (but I needed brisket).

    I love a good country feeling bbq place! The BBQ is amazing!! I got chopped beef sandwiches and peach cobbler. The brisket was so tender and the flavor was that good ole smoked brisket taste! My family recommended me to this place because they stay in the area. I set on the porch with the heaters listening to music relaxing! Customer service was amazing. Parking you just pull right in. Wait time is great for fresh food!

    Cozy restaurant with good service…read more Service and atmosphere: As described above haha. The service was good and staff were friendly. Food and drinks: Good selection of well thought through dishes. They offer surf and turf options. The red snapper was pretty good. The burger was well made and tested good too. Highly recommend chicken wings. They were crunchy and juicy. We didn't try alcoholic beverages but they do offer full selection of different drinks. Pricing: $$ - definitely worth the visit. P.S. the restaurant uses 100% beef tallow for frying!! - six star rating here.

    Father's Day- dinner experience. There were several tables with what appeared to be 3-4 servers,…read morewith 1 doubling as bar tender (personality-rarely smiled and could have communicated better with those at the bar), and a guy that sat us and gave us menus (which were for the morning) who later told me he was a busboy who they had him running as hostess tonight. We sat for several minutes before flagging him down for different menus, and then waited another several minutes before flagging down another person to see who was going to be our server-as we still didn't even have water. She wasn't sure if it was going to be her (Teresae) or someone else... so we went ahead and ordered an appetizer and drink since she was there. About 4 minutes passed when the other person showed up to see if we needed a server. It took several minutes to get his drink which came after the appetizer- artichoke dip with baguettes which were decent. From the time we placed our main order- sandwich and snapper, it took about 26 minutes. The waitress never came back to check on us during that time, and we had to flag down the guy that sat us to get a water refill. The food was decent, but something had an aftertaste (maybe the onion rings fried in tallow?), & the snapper was a little salty. The waitress never followed up to see how the food was or ask if we needed anything else. We finally had to get her attention to get a to go container and our check. Having been a waitress for several years, here's my suggestions: A GM needs to be on the premise, communicate to servers after a table is seated so they know it's their turn, staff needs training on customer protocol/service, staff needs to quit touching their hair, wiping their face/nose (especially the guy as I thought he was going to have a heart attack as much as he sweat) and then serving food/drinks/setting the table (wash your hands!), & if kitchen staff is unhappy about something, don't do it to where people can see them... There were a few other tables that waited just as long as us to get service, and sometimes the two girls switched customers after starting with them. Not impressed- no GM/Mgr. on the premise, service was severely lacking, and food was average. This place won't be on my list to come back again any time soon... and then to see the banners in the photo... I had to laugh.
