This was horrible! I went to the comedy show here on Wednesday. Before I went in I asked what time they closed, they said 9pm. At 8:35pm I went in to order and the woman said "we are closed". I said "you just told me it closed at 9pm". She ended up giving me a fried chicken sandwich... I think it was the chicken that was sitting in the fryer as they were cleaning up. It was fatty, gross, dry chicken, with no coleslaw, not hot sauce, not even a pickle. I was so hungry and couldn't even finish half of it it was so bad. The fried part was so thick, and Im pretty sure it was a leg, not a breast. I also ordered the collard greens... which were also SOO bad! I hardly touched them. All this horrible food was about $30 too! Skip this join! Try the chicken sandwich at The Window at American Beauty on Rose Ave in Venice. It's $5.95 and so good! Or the collard greens at Baby Blues BBQ - but Loellas... HORRIBLE!

Brisket sandwich was disappointing. Fatty and rubbery. Red beans and rice had a good flavor, but could have had a little more beans to rice ratio.

Keith and his team are incredible - best food in CPM (sorry Nancy!)

A little pricey for the portion but very tasty!
