The food was incredible. I decided to stop by for lunch and ordered the Louisiana fried chicken, while my boss had the veggie lasagna. We also both tried the squash mac and cheese. The fried chicken was outstanding—perfectly crispy on the outside and incredibly juicy on the inside. The sauce that came with the chicken had a sweet and subtle flavor, followed by a delightful spicy kick that left me wanting more! My boss raved about her veggie lasagna as well. However, what impressed me even more is their commitment to sustainability—anything that isn't eaten is composted! It's clear why this place has such a high rating; it's hard to believe anyone could give it less than 5 stars. I'll definitely be back! A big thank you to the friendly staff who make it all happen!
