Best fried pickles I've ever had. Best fried catfish I've ever had. The food is salty and spicy, which some people don't like apparently. I happen to love it. My dad was eating his remoulade sauce for the fried pickles out of the bowl with his fork, if that tells you anything - I guess mostly that my dad needs some better manners ;)
The owner runs the whole thing - takes your order, helps cook the food (there is one woman in the back who did most of the cooking it seemed), buses your table. And most importantly, he will chat you up in a non-annoying way. It just feels so authentic. You feel like he values your presence in his restaurant, he wants to learn about you, and he wants you to enjoy your food and drink.
My parents are visiting from out of town and he wrote down directions to places he thought they would enjoy.
Don't expect to be in and out of this place in a hurry. Everything is deliberately prepared and it takes a while. The prices were a little higher than I was expecting, too. But I think it is worth it for the experience and the taste.
