“Came here tonight with my family. They wanted fresh chicken and the cook and server still dropped fresh chicken for them. I told them I wanted the chicken that was hot under the light and it was still hot and fresh to me. Great service from the people here even though we came 30 minutes before closing they still served us like they just opened. Very happy!”

“I've passed this place 100 times while visiting the Splendora/Cleveland area but the dated/faded signage & exterior made me 🤔 about stopping. My Mr. said it was really good back in the day so we stopped yesterday. Walked in & it waa just as dated on the inside🙄 BUT the food was fresh, everthing on the line was being replaced as soon as it got low and the staff was really nice.”
— Audra L Mc (Audra's Aura)★★★★★
