First time trying out the restaurant on today, Saturday, July 12, 2025. I Ordered a catfish plate which consist of two pieces of fish, coleslaw, and baked beans and sweet sweet hush puppies. The atmosphere was wonderful. The food was great will be returning.

This was a 10000/10. Me & My man passed by during our roadtrip up the east coast and got the Catfish dinner & Fried Chicken dinner. From a NY Native, this was BOMB, freshly made and affordable. Hope to be back again to have more food.

Had the pleasure to assist Mr. Jimmy on a internet upgrade. After the upgrade was completed, I decided to have a pork chop plate with rice and gravy along with green. The taste did not miss a beat! But was impressive was to see Mr. Jim run the register and take phone/walk-in orders all by himself. Just AWESOME!!

The facility is a bit out dated, but as far as the food and owner, you couldn't ask for better. I highly recommend coming here!

I’m a trucker from Atlanta and I found this place on Google. Had a delivery at Smithfield Plant in Tar Heel. Bobtailed to this hidden gem. Older Guy runs the kitchen and register so bare with him.. Enjoy the ol skool music playing and chill.. I ordered the whiting fish plate with Mac & Cheese and cabbage.! It came with two slices of white bread and a cup of hot sauce.! Definitely didn’t disappoint.! You can either take out or eat inside.. I ate inside.. Real chill neighborhood spot..

I came here on a Tuesday afternoon to try their chitterlings ("chitlins") for takeout lunch with a group of 3 people. Chitterlings are hog intestines basically. They're something that's typically Southern food especially in the country. The place itself was very unassuming. I thought it was just a convenience store. The chitterlings were seasoned with cracked red pepper and came with a side of boiled cabbage. The chitterlings were chewy and had a spicy kick. It was not very tender so I could not eat a lot of them. You get a good portion if you order small. The staff were very nice and helpful. They have a fish fry on the weekends with crab boils so definitely have to try that next time.
