    The food was great I thought the chicken with the French toast was cooked a bit hard. The Fenton wings taste like KFC honey BbQ wings, and The seafood grits were really good. I wish the clean-up crew gave people more time time to leave before they started grabbing their glasses I didn't finish my water. You feel rushed after you get your food, they stand around and watch you so they can start grabbing stuff. I know the place is small and you want to keep it moving but dang give me time. Overall it was nice and I would recommend

    We enjoyed our meal; however, it seemed as if there was only one server for the entire restaurant and he was also tasked with being the bartender. Thus, there were a lot of long pauses in the dining experience even though the gentleman was doing his best. Perhaps there can be more staff at front of house?
