There are a couple of deal breakers for me (aside from bad food and dirty establishments) small restaurants fall into; poor customer service and poor pacing. This place failed in neither area. From beginning to end, the service was outstanding. The kitchen line must be well managed because the pacing between receiving beverages, complimentary appetizer (biscuits & gravy) and the main meal was perfect. They stayed on top of drink refills and table clearing as they were watchful for when guests were in need of more drinks and /or finished with a plate. They also ask without assuming before removing the plate. We went towards the end of the day and had pork chops with gravy, fried catfish, fried chicken, black eyed peas, yams, macaroni and cheese, fried okra and sweet potato pie. The macaroni and cheese and black eye peas could have stood for a tad more seasoning but nothing to deter me from this little West Valley gem. Many restaurants try to stretch frying grease and don't properly change it which causes fried items to taste old and rancid like the grease they were cooked in. Not this place. The place was neat and clean throughout. It is clear the owner takes pride in everything that goes on there and holds every employee to a high standard and accountable for the success of the business. That's the kind of thing that keeps patrons coming back. I will be a regular here, no doubt!
