I'm not too much into how a place looks. I'm a foodie, I just want that stuff to taste good.
The corncakes that they feed you when your waiting for your food is far better than most bread baskets served at restaurants. The only thing missing was a LITTLE honey, but the edges had a nice crisp to them. Delicious.
I got the BBQ hot link as an appetizer. My wife thinks all hot links just taste like hot dogs. I agree to some degree, but I know that's what I'm getting when I order it so it doesn't bother me. The BBQ sauce on that puppy was a celebration in my mouth, and I love how they cut it up for me to slice my pieces off.
We both got the fried chicken and two sides. I got the mac n cheese and the corn bread stuffing. My wife got the red beans and rice and the yams. She wolfed down the red beans and rice and said the yams were sweet enough for her dessert. I hate to say it but I've had mac n cheese that was so good I'd bathe in it so I don't think I can ever have mac n cheese again since this one (though good) couldn't compete. I was glad they put gravy on the stuffing not only for flavor, but I think it helped the texture too. The only problem with the gravy is that is does cool down.
The fried chicken is the best I've ever had. Throw some of the hot sauce on it and I was in heaven. Eat it slow so you can take in the sweet grease in all it's glory dancing with the spices and sweet steamed meat of this perfection of poultry. I normally hate the skin, but this was just too good. I'd have that again and again.
I finished off my meal with the sweet potato pie. I've never had it, but the meal was going fine to this point so I took a chance. I enjoyed the flavor, not as strong as pumpkin but some part of the pie were luke warm and other parts were cold. That's my only complaint on the food.
Will I go back? Probably. Soon? Probably not. It's pretty out of the way for us, but I wanted an experience that was different that what we normally have and I got it. Just when you walk in I felt transported out of Las Vegas and into the deep south. Nice hospitality, everyone working there had a smile and were as courteous as could be. This is a must place visit for those looking for something different with just plain good comfort food.
