    Buffalo Mac and cheese
    Beth S.

    Ended up here when our power was out. It was good. Tasty salty fries. We've been here a few times and it's a little different experience each time. The gal taking our order was brutally honest in her assessment of the various sauces. Maybe too honest and unforgiving and basically tried to steer us away from any sauce aside from 2 she kept recommending. Uh, interesting. Our food came out at wildly different times. Tenders came out pretty quick. Tender/wings meal quite a bit later. Burger long after. We waited to eat together so food got cold. Whatever, not the end of the world. But not ideal.

    The sign. Note that they technically don't specify sandwiches, leading to a fair amount of confusion.

    The pros - tasty chicken, tasty sauce. The con - timing. We are a family of four so we ordered a total of four things. First we got the first two, then a little later we got the third. A fair amount of time later the manager gestured toward our table and asked the girl who took our order something. She went back into the kitchen, came back out, and I overheard her say "it's nowhere near done." Finally, we got our fourth item. It's always fun inside - lots of chicken puns on the walls, very brightly lit, some occasionally strange but good music.

    Medium Hot Wings/Brown Fries

    Great taste, will probably try the Damn Hot next time! I would advise to ask to get wings naked instead of breaded! Nice place though.

    Sauces were amazing! Customer service was great. They use actual cloves of garlic on the fries which was everything for me. Chicken 8/10 sauces were 10/10 for sure. The vibe of the restaurant was pretty cool and authentic. Would recommend

    Their 2pc tender and wings with fries and a drink.

    The night-time manager was very unprofessional. I placed an online order and never received my…read morefood, waiting over an hour for it. When I asked for a refund, I was told that the manager does not handle refunds and that I should speak with the day shift manager instead. I watched numerous DoorDash and Uber Eats deliveries go out, but my order never arrived. Additionally, none of the workers wore gloves, and the manager's attitude was unpleasant. After I inquired about my order, a heavy-set woman brushed me off, fanning her hand dismissively and walking away while saying they were short-staffed. No one would give me their names. Another customer advised me not to leave until I spoke with someone, as the behavior demonstrated was unacceptable. The night manager, a Black woman with short hair, was rude and seemed to need more training in dealing with the public. I have decided not to patronize this establishment again. If I could give this store a zero rating, I would. I plan to return in the morning to request my refund. After I asked for a refund, she gave my order to another customer for free. I have never been treated this way before and will not accept disrespect from someone who should act professionally.

The other three were processed chicken pieces parts patties they had some sauce on them. I could have gotten the same thing at Kroger in the frozen food section. Honestly it was kind of disappointing. As for the sauces, the cajun sauce was like just a basic bitch Louisiana hot sauce but with less kick. Mango habanero had sone heat but not really much sweet. Kid who had the Korean q said it was good but I didn't try it. Three of us had Louisiana voodoo fries and 1 had a plain fries. The voodoo weren't bad but if I'm gonna get "crazy" fries I'd just as soon get them from Fowl n Out or get the junkyard fries from Hattie Bs. So, in summation, if i return here for a chicken sammich I'd just get it plain and toss it with one of the many many many store bought and home made (yeah I said home made I have an entire mini fridge dedicated to them ) hot and/or bbq sauces we have at home.

My wife got her usual steak on a stick. She said it was very tender and flavorful. She also got a order of The Onion rings. If you like the big onion rings, you can't go wrong.

She did seem a bit busy and forgot about me a couple of times, but honestly, I didn't mind (this time)...I enjoyed the solo time to people-watch and savor my meal. I was seated near the kitchen alongside a group of younger waitresses, and the section filled with customers was mostly small groups and couples. Unfortunately, one young waitress (I'd guess around 18-20) was loudly using profanity, dropping F-bombs and openly saying she didn't care. It came across as rude and unprofessional, and I hope that kind of behavior doesn't become a reflection of the restaurant in the future. On a positive note, the lunch fajitas were delicious and a very generous portion. Despite the distraction in my seating area by the cussing, disgruntled young waitress, the food and my waitress's, Taniyah, friendly service stood out.

    I have found this place to be pretty consistent in my experiences…read more Granted.... I have only eaten one item here myself. I have now had the wife and a kid come too. They agree with me on my point of view, so here we go. My first visit I was totally skeptical. I had read the reviews, which seemed overwhelmingly positive. This is other than the asshats who get mad when they spend 8 hours of their "hard earned pay", and the all time classic of they "ain't happy this time, after all these years, they pissed me off this time" two star reviews. Side note: Spread the love when you can, and write good reviews when you have good experiences. Don't wait and write a bad one after one bad visit. Ugh. You walk in and it's bright, loud, hectic, gringos everywhere! I knew from the drop, as soon as I walked through the door it's far from authentic Mexican food, but totally "Mississippian Top of the Sip Mex" ™. That's another new one, you can use that one, as long as you pay me. Contact me for details, we can work something out. My number is (662) 513-0796. Now that the legal stuff is out of the way. Resuming.... My first visit, when my completely American server walked up and greeted me I was offered a "MS TOTSM" gosh durn bible of concoctions consisting of the same thing repurposed to trick the high brow MS masses to believe they have choices. I had not realized El Agave and Tate Reeves had so much in common. Stay on track, Adam!! This is Yelp! One thing stuck out to me that you generally see in decent Tex Mex to real deal Mexican food where no one speaks English. Chile Verde!!! I asked her about it, told her how reluctant I was ordering it based on her and my current environment (that brought a look), and she all she just said was "try it", so reluctantly I did. Sometimes I just need a lady to take control and tell me what to do. I'm there eating chips and salsa all patient and stuff... Boom! What comes out looks like baby poo. We might be on to something here!!! Could it be? The pork tips were swimming in green salsa, which was promising. I take a chip and dunk it in the verde.... Here we go! It's tangy, punchy, sweet, and spicy!!! Now all I need is the pork to not suck.... Holy shit!! It doesn't suck! It's actually good!!! Everything else is an afterthought. Rice. Blah. Beans. Blah. They are fine I guess. Just the norm, but the salsa on the pork steals the show!!! I eat it all up! I've came four or five times solo on lunch shopping excursions to Tanger and my Verde has always been a winner! On the family visit, C had a taco and an enchilada. Kiddo had the famous P-10, or MS Mush as I call it. They both ate it up so it must be good. Kid even took the rest home and ate it later. I'll be back for my baby poo pork! You can guarantee that!!

I had the three piece dark chicken with the sweet potatoes casserole and mash potatoes with gravy. The mashed potatoes had quite a few lumps and everything kind of gave a powdery taste (gravy, casserole, and mashed potatoes). When I say powdery... I'm saying that it just wasn't giving "homemade". It's not intolerable but it's not what you look for when you go to a soulfood restaurant. I also wasn't a fan of the wait. We have some made to order items so it was understood about the 20 minute wait, but we didn't get our food until almost an hour after paying. The extra time waiting seemed to be due to fried green tomatoes not being made in tandem with the fried chicken. As a result, everything was luke warm by the time we got the food. It's truly sad because the flavor is definitely there.

The catfish is made to order, was perfectly crispy and well seasoned. Definitely top 3 catfish meals for me in the area. The mac and cheese was some of the best I have had. It was creamy and savory, it wasn't too fatty and had a firm texture. It was definitely the highlight of the meal. The green beans had a bit of a mushy texture but I really enjoyed regular green beans. The meal comes with a side or cornbread which was filling , fluffy and sweet. Fantastic soul food for me. The banana pudding was also delicious. You can also actually taste banana not just sugar. The people working there were honestly so kind and chill. They knew what to recommend and added to the dining experience. My only criticisms come with how some of the food is prepared for example the green been texture being on the mushy side is likely due to it being presented similarly to a buffet. I was also unable to have a whisky due to the bar being closed however it was 2pm on a weekday. Overall great experience

Ribs - pretty good sauce, tender, fall off the bone, some pieces were a tad dry, but this can be common with ribs, especially the smaller ends. Turnip greens - pretty standard Red beans and rice - pretty dang good for being in Mississippi. Ask for the hot sauce. Both my client and I really like this.
