Our waitress Rebecca was wonderful, she was attentive to our needs but not hanging over us. We all ordered the fried chicken and it was probably the best fried chicken i have ever had. Only complaint was we couldn’t bring the doggy bag of leftovers into the theater. Hopefully a homeless person is enjoying this fine meal.
