This place serves up high quality comfort food made with love. In my opinion, they are better than most iconic brunch places in the south east without the crazy wait time. If you walk by on a weekday and see a picture of a chicken on the side window, it means the cook is there and will make you a fried chicken sandwich for $10. Their dinners are also 100%.
