This is my first time trying this restaurant it was pretty great but it does have a few cons. My chicken was great. The fries and macaroni and cheese were horrible. My stomach was messed up after eating the macaroni and cheese and that is not good. Other than that the food was pretty good. Just need to do better when it comes to the food. Great prices and definitely good enough to eat and try

Hello my fellow Southerners are you hankering for some Southern Chow? Yeah you're hungry and you want some Baptist bird? I have been a fan of Carter's fried Chicken for some time now. We came here at 3:00 in the afternoon and the place was jumping. The atmosphere here is pure Carter's. Yeah, a repurposed place that serves good food and plenty of it. I believe people of our faiths are invited here to have some serious fried Chicken that coleslaw did not disappoint. The french fries were okay. You want iced tea? You want to put some of that imitation cherry flavor man they got gallons for you. Carter's a place to visit when you're passing through just like I was. You never been here? You need to stop n check it out!

From my understanding, this is the original Carters.....I believe it, this place was packed, wall to wall, but the service was friendly and fast. The food was good and fresh, onion rings are cooked too order, from real onions. I do definitely be back when I'm in the area. I had wings and they were fried too perfection, Coleslaw was perfect, and the fries was fresh and hot, so gone and stop by when you're in the Souglas area

★★★★★ 5.0 Julie Marburger · Dec 2025

Great Southern cooking, counter style! Order at the counter, they cook it fresh, and hand it over the counter hot and in to-go containers. My fried chicken livers were cooked perfectly! Chicken tenders were also outstanding; BBQ sauce is homemade and delicious. Lima beans and slaw also amazing. If you want a fancy restaurant, this isn’t for you. But if you want inexpensive home cooking, this place rocks!
