Just stopped to get a plate after seeing the billboards. Wow is it good! Meatloaf and wings are so freaking good, may beat my mommas meatloaf but I ain't gonna tell her that. Service was extremely nice, couldn't have nicer ladies to work that line. I'll be back! Place was very clean and nice atmosphere.

I went to This is it around the lunch rush and it was 1 lady in the front with her arm in a brace. My hat goes off to her because she was by herself and still did a wonderful job until she had back up. She ask another for help and he left her by herself, I was so shock. I even offered her a 10 tip for her dedication to us as the customers and she said she couldn’t take it without putting it in a jar. I wish I could had rewarded her more personally. So this review is for her, I didn’t see her name tag so I went back and found out her name is Stephanie. Thank you so much for your customer service.

I just moved here from California and heard about this place before I got here. Boy, I'm so happy that I didn't listen to the negative reviews!! Everything on my plate was absolutely delicious! When I ordered the chitterling dinner the first time it was about 8:30pm I immediately got a call saying they were out! They worked with me and allowed me to come get the meal the next day! I'm thoroughly impressed with the food and the customer service I will absolutely be back with the whole family!!
