This establishment serves up a satisfying fare at an attractive price point. I highly recommend the chicken and fish plate, where the chicken tenders stand out with their irresistible crunch and juicy interior. The whiting fish, while flavorful, could benefit from a crispier exterior. The shrimp and yams are also a solid choice.
The house-made lemonade tends towards the sweeter side, so consider diluting it with water. While the Oreo banana pudding is enjoyable, the lack of real bananas detracts from the experience.
In conclusion, this spot delivers delicious, budget-friendly meals that satisfy you.

Pros: Has a great variety of food options for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Loved the Strawberry Arnold palmer and felt like the prices were worth the amount of food that you get. The fish and shrimp plate was fried to perfection!
Cons: Although many items were cooked to order, some of them almost seemed rewarmed and not fresh. The French toast was soggy and doughy in the middle. The macaroni and cheese was missing the cheese. The yams were sooo good but I had more yam juice than actual yams. Lastly when it comes to the banana pudding all I can say is looks can be deceiving. It looked amazing, but was missing the vanilla/banana flavor, there were no actual bananas inside and the cookies seemed stale.

This place is great!!
I ordered the cajun shrimp & Grits. The shrimp were cooked and seasoned perfectly. I did have to add a pinch of salt 🧂 to the grits, being originally from Louisiana the salt and seasoning is important. I say this because others may not need salt. But the flavor was great.
I ordered the eggs 🥚 over easy with pork sausage patties, collard greens, and the waffle. The eggs 🥚 🥚 were cooked perfectly. The collard greens were good as well. The sausage patties were great. The waffle 🧇 was a bit too cakey, thick, and rubbery for my liking.
The mac n cheese 🧀 was amazing. The cheesy grits were amazing. The candied yams were amazing as well.
Overall, a great place to eat great food!

First time visiting. The fish and shrimp was awesome! Loved the Mac and cheese, spicy collards, & frozen lemonade! I don’t know what seasoning that was on the fries, but I’m asking for more next time. I will definitely be going back to try more.
