The food is good, and the sandwich portion is pretty good. I appreciate the fact that real beef steak was used for the sandwich (not your regular frozen, thin cut). The service is fast and friendly, and the ambience was nice. The owner is friendly and polite. Definitely recommend this place.

The chicken was delicious, as were my mashed potatoes and cole slaw. My wife and son both had the…read morechicken strips, and they thought they were tasty and obviously not re-formed pieces but actual pieces of meat--something we seldom see these days. The atmosphere is homey. Nothing fancy, but comfortable. Someone had spilled some sugar on the table, and we sat down before they could get someone to clean it up. It was obvious the worker were challenged, as we saw them constantly on the move between cooking, the cashier station and the drive up window. I found the music just a little too loud, but I think I may be fixated on this aspect of dining out. All in all, just what to expect from a small restaurant near a military installation: good food at a decent price without pretensions. Definitely will return.

We drove from 410 area to try this place because Mr Elder Eats said it's worth it . It was not…read moreworth the drive at all. First off $27.79 for 4 pc tenders and 3 pc seemed a little steep, and they didn't have biscuits. We weren't offered an extra side or discount considering the meal was missing the biscuit. The chicken my husband had was ok , we were expecting a lot more flavor based on the color it came out, but the breast was juicy . My tenders were sad, no real flavor. The batter tasted like flour and that's it. I don't understand if the owners have their flavorful tenders at smoke shack why aren't they to the same standard here . The sauce options are ok , loved the hot honey. The max n cheese reminded us of frozen meal standards. As my husband said "There's good restaurants, there's fast food & then there's Honeys..." Overall I would not recommend it .

When the first interaction goes bad, kind of sets the stage of how everything else will unfold…read more I've been to this location numerous times and always been satisfied, but today when I went through the drive-through the ladies that took my order was very soft spoken, and I asked her to repeat herself multiple times. I ordered a medium original and sour cream and onion chips. After asking her twice to repeat what she just said I finally heard her say they are out of sour cream and onion chips. I then ordered the barbecue chips. When I drove up to the window, I told her that it was really hard to hear her and that maybe the speaker needs to be turned up. She did not respond and just stared at me waiting for payment. It was a very awkward moment and I wondered did she not understand what I was saying? I didn't have to wait long before my order was handed to me as I drove off. I looked in the bag to make sure I had a sandwich and chip and all good. When I got home and opened my bag that's when I realized my order was wrong. Ate it anyway and it was good. Maybe this was just a one time thing and maybe she was having a bad day who knows. Quality of food is still good service today not so much.

Drove almost 20 to this location since there are none nearby, and my visit was immediately soured…read moredue to the customer service. Ordered two large sandwich combos and was told in a very odd way that the price would come out on the high end side ..as if I am not aware of what I am ordering. I do not mean to accuse the worker of anything, but they were oddly hostile and I would rather think they were just having a bad day. Got exactly what I ordered, except something was off with the bread. Most drinks from the drink station needed the syrup replaced, but was not notified of that, when purchasing a drink. I would prefer driving to a further location if the customer service is always this bad.

Food and Service with a simple ambiance…read more This was my second visit with friends this time on a Wednesday. First there at opening time. Instantly greeted, and drinks came fast. Ordered the Soul Rolls and just WOW. A egg roll type wrap filled with seasoned ground beef, greens and Mac N Cheese. With Brown Gravy. MMM. Could be a meal by itself. Friend ordered Fried Green tomatoes. No complaints from him. Perused the menu with the Wednesday special being Meatloaf, 2 sides and a drink. ($11.99). I ordered meatloaf was delightful dense meat... not many fillers smothered in brown gravy. A side of Mac N Cheese and Okra.. SO MUCH TO EAT. Friends got the Swai fish with Yams and Green beans. Second friend had Catfish with cabbage and okra. They both loved their individual plates, had enough to create a to go plate for later. And don't get me started on the Banana Puddig for all 3 of us. MMM. Support this business. They do Soul cooking excellence.

I was very disappointed when I stopped her a few weeks ago. I ALWAYS finish my food but the oxtails…read morewere wholly lacking in flavor and not tender. They also left an after taste. Same for the sides. And the gravy. Everything was just...okay. I wanted to support so badly, and maybe it was an off day, but I won't be back. The woman who took my order wasn't friendly either - although I saw her at least be amicable with another couple. Don't know that I would want to eat in the restaurant, but there were a few diners there when I went to place my order.

We went here at 9:11 pm and I walked in and ordered a 8 piece livers and gizzard and a tender roll,…read morebut when I said can you make it fresh he said "certainly you're the customer." He was very nice and told the cook to make it fresh so he did. I was waiting for 8 minutes and I said I wanted a small cup of ice and he said "are you sure I can give you a drink since your order is taking long." I said "ok that's great thank you" he gave me a sweet tea so I took it to the car and I came back and he said "you're order is almost ready would you like another tea." I said "ok thank you" so he gave me another one. 5 more minutes later he said "did you get your order?" I said "not yet I don't mind I see your busy." Which I saw how the drive thru was packed and raining. So he was super very nice too give me this much of livers and gizzards tenders, fresh rolls, gravy, serendipity packets, and a gallon of there sweet tea plus the best part it was super hot and he said he was sorry I hope you come back and I said "thank you so much and I really appreciate this you made my day, but what's your name?" He said "my name is Josh." I will come back to this establishment and everyone was super friendly and working very hard especially when it was raining Thank you!

I'm giving four stars because the staff who help outside are superior in personality & care,…read morecompared to the assistant manager who waited in me today when I went inside for the first time ever. She was just not friendly. Complete opposite from her entire staff. Sad. If this is how you lead by example, you are failing. Thankfully, your staff is superior. It's Bush's Chicken. They don't do food wrong. I've never received a wrong order. Not once. Their chicken is always freshly fried, & they always have fresh warm rolls. They do have good tea, but I cannot drink the sweet. Its is too sweet. But, they brew their tea properly. I always get me a cup of unsweetened tea. Never disappointed. I do not like white meat. Thankfully, I can always order a three piece thighs without any issue. I did just discover they have baked chicken. Although I do not know anyone that has ever got an order. So, if you have, let me know what you think. I'll try it mext some. Opened my to go box & was surprised how old the chicken looks. It is not hot, actually, kinda cool. I came straight home after ordering. This is disappointing. I actually liked this location. But, after going here about once every 30-45 days, not a bad percentage. Which is why I stuck to the four stars.

The ambiance is very quiet…read moreand dark, with the lights kept off to take full advantage of the natural light coming in through large windows surrounding the dining area. Unless it was just for the day that I visited, lol but if this is their usual practice and you're used to bright, bustling environments, this might take a minute to get used to, as it feels a little more calm and subdued. That said, the food was absolutely fantastic! I had the Banh Mi chicken, and it was everything I hoped for. The flavors were spot-on--crispy, savory, and fresh, just like a Banh Mi should be. If you're in the mood for a calm and relaxed dining experience with great food, definitely give this place a try! Just be prepared for a darker, quieter atmosphere.
