A large piece of flounder on sliced white bread. It gave it a old school vibe and the fish was hot, too big for the sandwich and the slaw rounded it out nicely. The fries had a little seasoning salt and were hot, just way I like it. Service was quick and polite. Reasonable prices. Definitely going back! More

Food was very good and fresh. My catfish was fried to order and the chicken was just dropped from the grease. Prices are reasonable and affordable. The food was well seasoned and didn't need any hot sauce, lol. When in Goldsboro I'll be sure to visit. More
