★★★★★ 5.0 Rocky Jenkins · Mar 2026

Love the food, love the people. I’ve tried their brisket, pulled pork, and tofu on both dirty rice and beans plus pickled egg and veg and also their yakamein bowls. I’ve loved everything I’ve tried. The bowls are large portions that will leave you either stuffed or with left overs. They are always friendly, warm and kind. Stop in and enjoy some great food.

★★★★★ 5.0 Emily Zick · Mar 2026

Got the brisket dirty rice + beans and it was SO good!! Really flavorful and filling. The owners were really nice, too!

★★★★★ 5.0 Stacia Proefrock · Feb 2026

Super nice owners and delicious food. We tried each of the main menu options — Yaka mein, dirty rice, and sandwich and they were all great. It’s in the church and they have seating which I didn’t expect. We’ll be back.

★★★★★ 5.0 Caitlyn Huckaby · Jan 2026

The food is incredible, especially the smoked brisket and pickled veg. The service is also quick and friendly! The rotating ice cream flavors are absolutely delicious, especially the tangerine mango

★★★★★ 5.0 Patty Hunter · Jan 2026

The food is delicious and the servings are large. The brisket literally melts in your mouth!! It is so tender and the flavor is superb!!
