Super unique restaurant experience with the best Fried shrimp you'll ever have. Jody and her daughter run the place that was handed down to them by her Dad, who was a famous Honky Tonk musician. Most nights they are open they have live music and the members play just for food and drinks. Jody the owner cooks, serves and entertains too, so the food takes some time to get to you, but that's part of the charm. This place is like going to an old friends house for dinner - it's far from fancy. Call before you go to make sure it's night that they're open. It's quirky but good!!
