Home cooked meal! Delicious! I got the beef rib and there was so much meat and the flavor of of being smoked you can see a nice smoke ring on the meat as well. The traditional simple sides but done right. The dirty rice I could just eat that by itself. The owner I think very nice lady talked to us and felt like a friend. The guy that helped us was super nice too, you can tell he’s a good guy. Thanks for delicious food and the hospitality. We’ll be back next time we pass through for sure.
