Passed by on my way back to Houston. Easy parking. Came after lunch hour and there were still people coming and going but not too crowded. Server was very polite and came often to check on us. Recommended us the smaller chicken friend steak which was more than enough for one person given that there are 2 sides.

We stopped in for supper wife had the Hawaiian-style Chicken while I had the Chicken fried Steak with French fries and fried Okra. Food is always good, server was on point and the atmosphere is very nice. Never disappointed when we eat here. Wife and I made another stop this time went with the Fried Catfish, French Fries and their fried Okra. An O Boy was it really good.

Delicious food, fast service and friendly staff. The food was perfect! My dad and I, ordered the Chicken Fried Steak and 2 appetizers. The appetizers were gaint onion rings and fried mushrooms. Super crispy and very flavorful. I can see why this place is so popular and I am fortunate enough that it is only 20 minutes away from me.
