This was a great spot.
The service was hands down the best part! Lateaka was awesome.
She was upfront about the best things on the menu, she was in such a good mood it made us feel good.
And she was always around checking on us. I would recommend the fried pickles, pulled pork and mashed potatoes. Trash ribs weren't for me, but to each their own. Enjoy!

Ordered from here in the past, but not sure I will again.
The food flavors that used to be there have changed.
The Mac and Cheese used to be the bomb with lots of different flavors.
This one was a homogenized flavor and not an exciting one.
What used to be more complex rich cheddar notes has turned to more of a bland mild cheese with a heat profile- almost a velveeta type of liquidity to it.
And there was a handful of breadcrumbs on the top that were just thrown on, not baked on.
It was really pretty gross.
Chicken wings were pretty dry.
I know they are dry rub but they used to have a vinegar sauce finish that is now apparently gone.
I’ve been eating at Virgil’s in Times Square since 1996 and getting delivery from this one since the pandemic.
This is not the same and it is NOT good.
Please return to your roots and make your food desirable again.

Came in for a quick breakfast when nearby places had long waits and it was delicious! We got the chocolate chip and peanut butter banana pancakes, and we couldn’t finish! Ronnie treated us extremely well and it was a great start to our morning hitting the strip!
