    From top to bottom everything about this is perfect. I've been coming to this location specifically for several years and cannot recommend enough. Fast well timed yet polite service, free salad, biscuits, mashed potatoes, corn, and gravy. And perhaps the most simple while still perfect menu I've ever ordered from. You will never be disappointed with the quality of food just get the standard fried chicken and enjoy the ride.

    The biggest plates of fried chicken I have ever encountered. They just come waltzing out with them, along with a plethora of sides. Very good, just prepare yourself.

    Generous portions and delicious food. Staff was very friendly and attentive. Restaurant and restrooms were clean. I'm looking forward to eating here again the next time we're in town but NOT looking forward to the staff being forced to perform the Hokey Pokey. It's kind of cringe the company make them do that.

    The waiter way good but that’s all !!! it was horrible it was our first time there and definitely our last the food is greasy and the chicken is nothing special and then even if you don’t get seconds what they provide for you take leftovers in is a bag put mashed potatoes and corn in a plastic supermarket bag GROSS! No thank you not to say super unhealthy I expected more for the iconic chicken spot of Texas and when we expressed disappointment to the management he didn’t even care very disappointing $50 for Texas Slop !
