Suma Thomas: Strawberry Crush (cocktail) was really good! The Mac and Cheese and The Stodg Burger were really good as well! The Gooey Buttery Cake was amazing (that coming from a Chocolate lover)!!

Luc V: Fried chicken is definitely some of the best... Catfish, chicken and dumplings, and the green beans aren't too bad neither
