The customer service at this place is top-notch, a perfect 10 out of 10. Even though I arrived just before closing time, the staff went above and beyond to make me feel welcome. They patiently guided me through their menu, helping me choose the perfect meal. I decided to try their Fried Chicken Sandwich with a side of crispy fries and a slice of delectable potato pie. Let me tell you, this was hands down the best Fried Chicken Sandwich I've ever tasted. The chicken was perfectly seasoned, the breading was crispy, and the flavors were simply divine. The combination of the sandwich with the fries and the delightful slice of potato pie made for a truly unforgettable dining experience. I highly recommend this place to anyone, you won't be disappointed! read more

It's cool what you will find just walking around and exploring your new little town. This is as good soulfood as can be gotten anywhere nearby. I went in on the catfish and greens with embarrassing abandon. It was so incredibly fresh and perfectly cooked. Not greasy, slightly crust outside, and perfectly cooked meat inside. The greens are equally delish! Highly recommend this place, and I will be back for the liver on their menu! read more

I placed a call in order for 3 meals. Once I got home 2 of the meals were not correct even though the lady read the order back to me, when I call to tell them that my order was I was told that I was charge for what I got even if the order was wrong, so there was nothing they could do. To me this is BAD customer service. I was very disappointed in the business. Even if your food is good you still need good customer service!! read more

I ordered 3 piece fried chicken, yams and collards. My significant other had chicken livers smothered in gravy and onions, mac & cheese, cucumber salad and potato salad. He THOROUGHLY enjoyed his chicken livers!! The container was COMPLETELY full of JUST THE LIVERS! The sides came in separate containers. We enjoyed all of the sides. The fried chicken was good although a little salty. Overall we had a pretty good experience.

The crab legs were very sizable and full of flavor, I mean it's what you would expect nothing too out of ordinary. I would definitely come back for the crab legs and I saw the blue crabs were $18 for half dozen, which is the most affordable I've found in the city! But the cooked food, I don't think I'll try the shrimp again, I am eager to try the fried fish, hopefully that won't be disappointing. Three stars for me!

I am kind and generous in my critique and try to maintain a professional decorum. With that said, I ordered four pieces of Whiting, sweet potato fries, green beans, and three chicken thighs. All of it was garbage!!! I expected four normal-sized pieces of fish, but instead, I received cut-bite-sized fish. The grease that was used to fry this fish was not fresh. My chicken thighs looked and tasted like they had been cooked some days ago. I received approximately 11 fries, and the green beans came straight out of the can with no seasoning. I understand that we live in trying times, but this is ridiculous. Usually, I would give restaurants the benefit of the doubt, but I can honestly say this is a one-and-done for me.

I ordered the just fish that comes with ten (10) pieces. Yes count them 1, 2,3,...10. Just like the Count on Sesame Street. Everyone is locked on right. I paid the money and the guy at the counter charged me for how many? Ten (10) fish pieces. After my short wait, my order was ready. The guy at the window showed me the fish looking golden brown and delicious. Hot piping hot. I said they looked good and ready for liftoff. Got to the car and my wife and I were happy at the time. After several hours and other stops we made it home. We live in Baltimore Md. A short 4 hour ride away. When my wife had unpacked the food and she asked me did I eat any fish? I said No? If I had she would have killed me before the plate got cold. She said that then they (Sugar's) did not give us piece number 10. The Boss was not happy and neither was I. Now I don't mind paying for delicious food and will do again. What I do mind is paying for fish that does not appear on my plate. I felt RIPPED OFF! If someone in the back of the house can't count to ten (10) and your employing someone who doesn't know how to count to 10, I am wondering what else is going on in the back of the house. Advise 1) Moving forward I will ask them to count them before accepting the finished product 2) Don't buy the Onion Rings. My wife does not care for them and she is an Onion ring person. Let's do this again but I'm bring the Count with me and the number 10 JUST TO MAKE SURE WERE CLEAR!
