A great little mini market combination restaurant. I live nearby but it's one of the highlights in the neighborhood. Sure, the fancy bevo mill restaurant's across the street- but sometimes you just want some catfish or chicken and fries with some cheese or delicious fried mushrooms. These guys are perfect for when you have that hunger. 10/10 would recommend. My brother got us hooked on this place so thanks, Kevin!

I rode past and saw this little hidden spot. I decided to order lunch here today, and everything was fresh and cooked to order. The kitchen is very clean, and the gentlemen working alone was polite. I will say I’m not sure if this is catfish. It seems more like Swai. I don’t mind, but just advertise as swai. The folks is still going to eat it lol

Food is good! I love that it’s clean, nice looking. Doesn’t take long to get food but it’s not fast. Food is fresh when you get it

Great food. Generous portions. At a good price. Only downside is the waiting. One man operation and all cooked to order. So you are looking at 15 to 20 minutes or so. Worth the wait. But be ready to wait.
