“ Very good food. Got some chicken wings, which are also roasted, they are awesome. Burger was great. Definitely be back for the chicken and Jo's which are broasted and old school. ”
“ World famous broasted chicken did not disappoint! Hand breaded and boasted served will home cut fries homemade sauces! 10/10 recommend! Service was amazing too! Thank you, Stacey!! We will be back! ”
“ My husband and I recently had a french dip and fries and it was absolutely delicious. We've had both regular and sweet potato fries and both are equally good. We had great, prompt service. It would be a fun, low key place to meet up with friends. I love trying local, neighborhood bars & grills. ”
“ I was hitting up a butcher counter in the area, and this was my first time dining solo in lordy knows how long. Been a few years since a visit here, and I really wanted to try their breakfast fare. I tried. I really did. But once I stepped inside, the siren's haunting trill of broasted chicken captivated me. And since I couldn't be strapped to a ship's mast like Odysseus, I succumbed to the enchantment. Seriously folks, these ladies make absolute top-tier broasted bird for our metro. It takes time, as well, so be patient. A few splashes of hot sauce mixed in both the ranch and bleu cheese dippy cups, and I didn't eat again until the next day... ”
“ We have always driven by this place and decided today was a wonderful day to try out their food. It's a cute little place with a decent parking surrounding it. Today was also customer appreciation day too so we decided to try out their Denver Omelet because breakfast is always our favorite meal of the day no matter what time it is. The items on their menu are very reasonably priced. We were pleasantly surprised how big the omelet was for the price. Not only was the portions a nice plus, we also received fast and friendly service too!! Great food, big portions and wonderful friendly service!! Heck yessss!! Highly recommend stopping by this place and giving them a try. You get a great meal without feeling gouged by high prices!! Will definitely stop by here again!! 2 paws up!! ”
“ The food was exceptional. The waitress was cute as hell and very friendly. Only critique is the hand cut fries. Need to redo. Either twice fry them or just go with a frozen. ”
