We start with free range, all natural amish chicken. It’s brined, dredged, then dropped into custom-built fryers. Its got a little kick and is served with our house made hot honey.

    The food was great, and so was our server; however, we didn't care for the hostess. She was not friendly at all, and we had a reservation (not that we needed one, apparently); it was NOT busy, and she sat us in a cold and drafty area right next to a family of kids with all of the other tables around us open. When others came in, she sat them all away from our two tables, which were very close to each other in the same area. As it wasn't busy, we could easily hear everything that the other table was saying...as they could hear us. So we whispered to each other while the other table was not. We enjoyed the food, but we didn't enjoy the experience. We ate and got out of there as quickly as possible to warm up again and enjoy our Valentine's Day together.

    Food was pretty good per usual but the bar high top tables are not big enough for two people and food!! That needs to be fixed. They turned on the air on a rainy winter evening which made it very chilly so no after dinner drinks and also the music got turned up and it was a wrap for us at 8;00pm.

    When I tell you this was the best fried chicken sandwich I have ever had, I mean it. Our server Kyra was amazing, and the atmosphere was cozy and comfortable, kid friendly for our toddler, and some of the best food we’ve ever had. We had no trouble getting a reservation on a Saturday night and parking was great. Highly recommend.

    Their signature fried chicken was Luke warm when it was served. They agreed to replace it with some (Freshly) cooked chicken but unfortunately this was the same. It was cooked through but had obviously been at in a warming cupboard in the kitchen. Very tasty but disappointing.

    We got the burnt ends as an appetizer and they were delicious! Because we had such a filling app, the suggestion from our awesome waiter was to split 1/2 chicken (again, delicious) and a couple of sides. We got the grits and spoon cornbread, both had subtle heat, but were scrumptious.

    It's one of my favorite restaurants. The servers are always amazing and so friendly. Their fried chicken is amazing. Last time I got the grilled cheese but added on pulled pork and it was one of the best sandwiches of my life. I wish I could remember our servers name because he was awesome and would ask for him every time if I could. He recommends the best stuff always and even when a girlfriend and I stayed longer than normal talking he was so nice and told us to take our time. 20/10 recommend to any and everyone
