Perhaps it was the spot a year prior but it's absolutely not anymore. I'm not sure what could happen so drastically in a year but this place needs to either close or make some major changes immediately before Big Mama starts turning in her grave. \n\nWhen we arrived there were absolutely no cars in the parking lot and no patrons inside. I reasoned that maybe business was slow at 3:00pm considering it's about 10 minutes off the strip and in the least glamorous part of town.\n\nThe windows are covered with neon writing advertising the specials, creatively mispelled in fact. There were several references to the restaurant being Creole. If this place is Creole, then I'm a talking monkey. This place is nothing but a one stop shop for mediocre food and a low budget strip club across the way, classic hood entertainment. \n\nThe menu is a expansive with classic sides including fried okra, mac & cheese, collard green etc. and a variety of meats including pork, chicken, ox tails, links and sandwiches. \n\nWe ordered fried chicken & mac n' cheese; BBQ sampler (white meat chicken, link, rib & fried okra). We ordered at the front counter, reminiscent of McDonald's and seated ourselves in the dining room after we found the only clean tables in the restaurant which strangely enough were the only two tables with tablecloths. There was one booth in fact that appeared to be used for sorting mail and the prepaid legal that was advertised on the menu. There was an entire dirty roadside, outdated, tacky theme that made me wonder what their letter would be if Nevada graded. Far from the down home momma's kitchen feeling that I anticipated. \n\nThe mac & cheese was sophisticated Velveeta, the BBQ was baked chicken well seasoned with liquid smoke and smothered with tasty sauce..the okra and the fried chicken were actually on point and I had no complaints. My #1 criticism, don't advertise baked chicken as BBQ EVER..I was insulted! \n\nLast but not least, the restroom tsk tsk.., a dungeon with minimal light....perhaps that was intentional."^^ .
