The eatery opened in the summer of 2016, earning instant popularity. It's a bit of a hidden gem, blending in with the neighborhood houses.
The interior is small and cozy, with counter service and no-frills decor.
Owner Ashley Faulkner can fry chicken like no one else, and it tastes especially amazing on top of a piping hot waffle.
Order a full fried chicken dinner, a chicken thigh sandwich, or go all-in with a Bucket O' Chicken.
From collard greens to waffle fries and rich mac and cheese, the sides are as tasty as the main course -- and they're only $3.
Monday Night Raw offers $1 oysters and beer and wine specials. But if raw seafood isn't your thing, you can always get a Fish Plate.
They open at 11 a.m. Monday - Friday and 10 a.m. on Saturday and Sunday.
