The old cliché “momma’s home cooking “, well this is Down Home Southern Cooking, Grandma’s House, chicken fried steak ( don’t need a knife just a fork), fried catfish & shrimp with shut dogs ( hush puppies)for those not from the south, just like Grandma used to make. Wow and the manger made you feel as if you were the most welcome and important person in the Restaurant, the staff friendly, caring and accommodating.👍👍👍👍👍
