This is an amazing restaurant . Pure home cooking with incredible food. Beautiful people that run it and make you feel right at home. Don't be in a hurry, relax and enjoy.

The fried chicken is a religious experience. The meatless spaghetti sauce will make you a believer. Catfish is perfect baked or fried. BJ will make you feel like family. Her hugs and kisses are ????.

There will be a wait (so don't go when you have a strict time limit) but it's well worth it. Make sure you try the tartar sauce with your fried catfish . Don't leave without ordering bread pudding . Read more
