The chicken was delicious and well marinated! The skin was very crispy.
Not the battered kind of fried chicken but the crispy skin kind! Very tasty! I also really enjoyed the sides, especially the collard greens! Worth checking out

I'm a big fan of fried chicken so I had to check this place out.
We went around 7pm, no lineup and got a seat right away.
The menu is simple, you basically pick the white or dark, # of pieces, and sides (you get slaw and beans as default but can change for an additional price).
We got the fried pickles as a started and definitely would recommend.
It came out super piping hot and had a great batter. The chicken had a simple dredge but gave a good crisp and was slightly spicy, the thigh piece was nice and juicy.
Of the sides, my fave was the greens.
Mac and cheese wasn't bad and slaw was ok.
We got the Chess Pie too and it reminds me of a mix between an egg tart and the brown sugary top of a pecan pie. Service was super friendly as well!

Craving juicy spicy fried chicken....
This place has it for you! No line and the front counter staff was patient and got us seated.
You can also place order at the bar up front.
Avery warming friendly atmosphere.
Our server was Steven whom took VIP like care of us.
I could see this being a busy time on a Friday night but not at 7pm.......
Got seated.
Grease was about to be flying....
napkins on the table helped.
All the food came out tasty and hot! Our order had chicken tenders, fries, Mac and cheese.
The chicken is so decadent!!!!!!!!!!! We had leftovers and I am Pleased with the portion and the jam packed flavors of all the food.
The food came out relatively quick.
Thank you for being awesome -oh so yummy.
If in the area in the future we will definitely visit again.
They should all be commended!!! Build one in Oklahoma City!!! (NW quadrant) The girls destroyed their plates...even with the spicy breading. Also pecan pie was a big hit! Respectfully, Bryan Yukon, Oklahoma
