Now keep in mind, I'm gluten/wheat intolerant, so, I couldn't eat the famous fried chicken sandwich,. I got the grilled chicken breast tenders with sweet honey BBQ , salad and mashed potatoes (no gravy!!) Nice portions, nice heat with the sauce on the chicken, and I didn't get sick!! Everyone else liked their sandwiches and was quite satisfied with the heat. I'm giving a 4 star only because we were about the 3rd group in line, there were 6 of us including our grandkids ages 10 months and 3. My daughter and I went ahead and got a table and a high chair at the only 6 person table closest to us. Kids and diaper bags get heavy!!! The other party in front of us had already got a table as well. That left only one group that was ordering to get a table. The manager or whomever she was, came over and told us we couldn't sit yet because we hadn't ordered. I totally get why, but, we were the only group with 6 people and there were a few other tables with 4 chairs. I was just a little put out with that. She didn't make the other person that was holding a table move. She asked him, he clearly lied.... so, long story short, food is great, but, apparently not very family friendly. After, the party that was ordering sit down, she did come over and tell us we could go ahead and sit. Why thank you. With tip and food, we paid over $70. Not sure if we will go back with the kiddos.

Y’all this chicken is awesome. So glad to learn they have gluten sensitive options. We had their rotisserie chicken. Their wings aren’t breaded so that is also a possibility. Slushies are amazing. There is a cheer wine and a tropical one. And, speaking of cheer wine, you should try their cheer wine barbecue sauce. Holy moly this stuff is the bomb. Homemade ranch dressing that I want to bathe in Collard greens, green beans, sweet potato casserole (although not gf) make me miss my mema in the south. So good — try it out. They have the smoothest takeout system that I’ve ever seen. Also, lots of outdoor seating‘s with picnic tables that are covered, and some out in the sun. Super fun place. Giving asheville the bird. Lol
