It took close to an hour to get food. We waited. Weren't even mad about it. At a point you just decide to wait it out once you're vested. Ya know, You just become ok. The sweet lady at the DT window takes one order at a time, rotates and yells it at the kitchen, takes your money, then waits until your food is ready and gives it to you. Then she waits on the next inside person inside repeating the same process. Back and forth from the counter to the DT. Pretty inefficient method that explains the long wait. There can't be much more economical than this. A half rack of ribs and two sides for $14. What the actual fuck? That is insane for March of 2024! A sandwich, side, and a drink for $7?!?!? Anyway. The bbq "meat" itself was pretty good. I had higher hopes for some good all around BBQ but the sauce just glopped it all up man. I didn't like it all and neither did the bride. Ribs were well cooked. Like I said the sauce was bad, and they were covered in it. It has gel like thing about it. It's sweet and like jelly.... Hard to explain. Beans were fair. White bread. Sandwich was impossible to eat as a sandwich. It just mushed under the weight of the copious amounts of jelly sauce and slaw. She just kind of got it in there with the foil it was in If I came back I would ask for no sauce or at least get it on the side. '24 - 25/100

This used to be one of my favorite places before I moved from the area about 6 years ago, and I was…read morevery excited to visit while I was here this week. When I came by to order this week, I was surprised to see that the ownership had changed. One of the previous owners was there cooking. The previous owners were husband and wife, and the wife was in the kitchen, but I was told by the very nice new owner that her husband was at home and that she had bought the restaurant about 6 years ago. I was initially disappointed to see that all beef dishes have been removed from the menu. My favorite dish in the past has always been their beef and broccoli which was delicious, tender beef that tasted like it had cooked all day in a slightly sweet, slightly spicy sauce with tender crisp broccoli and onions served with white rice. The new owner explained that the price of beef had forced them to remove beef dishes from the menu. The rest of my favorites were still there, including the pad Thai and chicken fried rice. I began to order an egg roll, but was informed that they no longer roll their egg rolls in house, but that they do have a beef and cheese roll which consists of ground beef, onions, bell peppers and cheese rolled in house in an egg roll wrapper. I decided to try this instead. We also ordered the bread pudding which was recommended by the owner. The pad Thai was very good and tasted almost exactly like it used to except for the chicken. The chicken was pre cooked/precut chicken breast and was somewhat gummy and unappetizing. I picked around the chicken and still very much enjoyed the dish. The fried rice was also similar to how it used to taste, but seemed slightly mushy/overcooked. The flavor was great... but again, the precooked chicken threw it off. I also was surprised to be offered yum yum sauce which I know is popular in Asian restaurants in the US, but is not my thing. I'm sure a lot of people are glad to have that option though. The beef and cheese roll stole the show. It was hot, crispy, cheesy, well seasoned, just the right amount of greasy and was perfect with the side of sweet and sour sauce. I'm glad we ordered those and I'll definitely be looking forward to returning for this. I was pleasantly surprised by the bread pudding. Since moving to the coast and being so close to New Orleans, I've become a bit of a bread pudding snob, so I was skeptical. It was delicious, moist, and thankfully had adequate sauce which can sometimes be an issue when ordering bread pudding. I was very impressed. I am thankful to see the restaurant under new ownership as the original owners were getting older (and ornery), and the restaurant was rarely open anymore. I enjoyed my experience and was glad to get to have an old favorite... I would like to see them change the chicken to a higher quality meat that is prepared in house, and would love to see them reincorporate the original egg rolls made in house. The lack of beef dishes was disappointing but not a deal breaker. The beef and cheese rolls are an awesome new addition. All in all, I'm glad we stopped by, the new owners were very friendly, and I wish them many years of success.

It's a walk up window for orders and they do have a couple of outdoor picnic tables under cover. They don't have a working phone number or shall I say the number on their menu is a fast busy. I ordered their Fried Fish plate, regular size that is suppose to come with 3 pieces of fish, choice of 3 sides, tartar sauce and Texas Toast. I love lemon juice on my seafood, was told they ran out yesterday and still have none. I got back to my hotel room and yes my Togo box has 3 pieces of fish, my three sides, onion rings, potato salad, and coleslaw. No tartar sauce, no Texas toast and 2 packs of ketchup.
