You have to go, even if it is only once. For those who wrote negative reviews, most of the stuff was their fault for not researching the place first. It is a TOURIST stop. There WILL be a wait on the weekends....

What's not to love? It is fast, friendly service and the food is excellent. You cannot beat the biscuits with homemade preserves and the fried chicken. I love taking out of town guests here for Sunday lunch.
