I had been wanting to try this place for ages and did for the first time yesterday. The food was absolutely delicious and worth every penny. Jessica F was our server and she was simply fabulous. She was kind, answered any questions we had and then some. She checked in on us frequently despite the restaurant obviously being crowded. I hope to come back again next trip and can only hope my visit will be as great as the one I had yesterday!

The nice thing is the hostess is easy to spot to get on the waiting list. They have outdoor tables with high and low table and chairs. The hostess was super nice!! The waitress was the best I have to say that I’ve had in a very long time. She checked on us just enough and was super friendly and best of all new the menu and could recommend food and drinks and for me that’s SERVICE. We didn’t have to talk around empties she cleared cups and plates and paper all the time it was awesome. Being our first visit she made us feel very welcomed. Sarah is the best!!!

I can honestly say I’ve never had a bad meal here before. I always get the fried chicken. Once I did the chicken and donuts and it was amazing! This time I did the app as a meal. Chicken and biscuits. Beyond fresh! Also…the moonshine?!? Out of this world. Recommend you buy the souvenir cup because then you can get refills on moonshine at a discounted rate! Side note: They have an outdoor walk up bar. Lines are usually low, and if moonshine isn’t your thing, they make great strong cocktails! Personal favorite moonshine: Margarita mixed with the blue hooch!

While you wait on your food I would definitely recommend the strawberry lemonade moonshine. It was recommended by the waiter and I see why. It’s very delicious and allows you to unwind while you wait on the food. The food blew my expectations away. I’ve visited here once before and was hesitant to try “Art’s Famous Fried Chicken”. This go around I decided to give it a try and let’s just say when I return again I will order it. The portion sizes are very generous. All the staff is very courteous. Make sure before you plan a trip here that you do a reservation online or by calling. This is a very popular spot so if you try to walk up you might have to wait hours or might not get a seat at all.

Do you need reservations

randy schnack | Sep 2, 2021
Isaac Parker | Sep 2, 2021

You don't need to make a reservation, but if you don't have one, you could end up having to wait 1-2 hrs. If you are planning on visiting and eating, make the reservation just in case.

We have a reservation for 4 and just found out that the infant also needs to be on the reservation but we are not finding any reservations at all during our stay. Would the restaurant still accommodate us with the infant?

It's hit or miss I can't imagine they would turn you away but may put you on the walk up.

Is the brunch menu only served on weekends?

Michele Handzel | Sep 3, 2019
Jason McNeill | Sep 3, 2019

Not sure about that. I do know we went there around 2pm on a Sunday and they never mentioned the brunch menu. We were offered the regular menu only at that time of the day. It was a great experience and you will enjoy either way.

Does anyone know if they fry the fish and chicken in the same fryer? We have a guest with severe fish allergies in our party and it’s be pretty lame to not be able to have anything from the fryer

They are the best place to eat for allergies!!! Let your server know about your needs and a manager will take care of it!! They can accommodate any major allergies! Bring your appetite!

Can you pay via magic band or Apple Pay?

Jessica Stern | Sep 3, 2018
Paul Long Jr | Sep 3, 2018

Absolutely with Magic Band. Not likely with Apple pay or Samsung Pay because you have to give the card to the server at the table and they take it to the pos machine to process your payment.
