This is the best chicken I have found here. I've lived here almost three years, tried many places: Lee's, Huey Magoos etc. Lees was pretty good but this place is wasaaay better. Big portions, great seasoning. You should give them a chance.

The ribs and the mini ribs and chicken were tender and delicious with just the right amount of sauce. The baked potato was perfect and the rolls were soft and scrumptious. Lastly, their salad with house dressing has enough tang to complete the meal perfectly. This restaurant has been a hidden Dayton trasure for decades!

The broaster chicken was hot, fresh and juicy! It's a great value, too, coming with 4 pieces, 2 sides, and a roll for less than a lot of fast food meals! We will definitely order again!

A whole lot of food for a very reasonable price. The Boneless Ribs was fresh, warm and I was pleasantly surprised with butter and ketchup included! I thought I'd be sad when I didn't see a half slab on the menu and opted for this meal instead. But I'm extremely happy. The ribs were smothered in sauce. The fries plentiful. I got corn because I didn't see an option for salad dressing and it's been so long since I've gone here, I couldn't remember what they had. Great combo! Even the roll was warm and fresh
