We started with old fashions to drink and crab stack for appetizer. Both were wonderful. Our entrees came out over an HOUR later! The wait was ridiculous and the service was far from acceptable. I got the chicken & dumplings. I did not like the gravy so I just scrapped off what I could and ate some of the dumplings. Husband got the catfish with collards and liked both.

The service was pretty good. However, we did not get the high-top table as requested. The brussels and shrimp appetizer was fantastic, but the pork chop were not very desirable at all. They were super dry from being over cooked.

I had made a reservation hours before dinner. We had an extra guest and they were very rude and didn't want to accommodate our extra guest. It would not have hurt to pull up an extra chair.
We left and went to other restaurant in the casino.

My chicken salad over spinach was not good the chichen salad tasted spoiled the waitress was so nice and remove the chicken salad from my ticket. Then the oysters on the half shell was burnt on the botton the waitrees come over and ask me how are the oysters i told her not good they are burnt on the botton the waitress remove that item for our ticket. My husband's fish was good but his mashed potatoes came out cold he ask our waitress for some hot masked potatoes the second potatoes came out still cold. Also we had to wait 30 min to get our food and the kicker Mama'n'Em was not busy we had a concert to attend. We arrive at Mama'n'Em and seated at 6:20pm we did not get serived until 6:55pm.

Crab stack was served room temp. Fried green Tomato not hot, crab room temp. Was told the crab made the tomato cold.
Seated in back of restaurant in a party of 9. Service took a hour and half from start to finish time - understandable but does not rate excellent. Asked waitress for to go box 3 times.
