"I absolutely love this place and can't get enough. The prices are insane for what you get and the food is so good. The vive is Chile and relaxing, and the restaurant stays clean. Everyone takes their time preparing your meal, and if you are ever nearby, grab something to eat. You're gonna be hardpressed not to enjoy the food. My personal preference is a little salt for the greens and rice. Other than that, you are gonna have a great experience. $7.88 for a platter with rice, 2 sides cornbread, and a can soda. You can't beat that anywhere."

"My boyfriend came in to your establishment so we can try your food, since we seen the post on social media. My Swai was on point with the seasoning(I just suggest add some cornstarch to your batter to make the batter stick more, fry a little longer), rice was good( I am true rice eater, just needed some salt n pepper), sweet potatoes I rate a 4( needs brown sugar, cinnamon, vanilla, butter, especially since they are canned), green beans in point every with the hint of vinegar, Mac n chz just add some seasoning in it. Line long and crazy, but I give yall 4 stars"
