Showed up 5 minutes early for our reservation. Waited another 25 minutes to even be seated. Sat at our table for 10 minutes before putting in a drink order that never showed. Overall just very disappointing.

Screen door east side is one of our favorite restaurants! Best fried chicken dinner in town. Appetizers were hush puppies, fried okra, and pimento spread with house made fire crackers! Too good! And the macaroni and cheese? Fantastic. 7 PM on a Monday night is a win! After the generation rush and not too crazy! Service was well timed, and our server was kind and engaging. She recommended the special which was the pork shank, and she was not wrong! Yum. If you want a stick to your ribs, awesomely prepared meal with a home cooked vibe, in a place that is not all frills and hoopla that gets right down to feeding you delicious food then this is your place!

Mardi Gras was a busy night but the staff were on top of their game! We were sat quickly, drinks were delicious, food amazing. What’s really fantastic was our server who knew everything about the menu and could make excellent suggestions for those who needed a nudge. She has worked there for years and has all the energy to help guests have a great experience. Five stars.

We had a great Mardi Gras meal! Had a little bit if everything. Service was a little slow but always super friendly. We watched others get seated after us and get their food and drinks before our food order was even taken. The food was delightful, though!
