actually the food was very good i used to eat there often nothing like the fried collard greens they had. i can say the very last time i went like a month ago it was somewhat lacking. the food i wanted was there but the person i went with seems like they where out of everything they wanted. and the service was extremely slow even though the waiter was nice it wasnt like the normal experiences i had there. but food i did enjoy hopes he comes back with a better location and better restaurant because it was tiny

I can’t believe JD hasn’t responded to this yet! How do you make a business decision such as “closing” and not inform your employees! JD needs to explain this and why his momma is going around giving explanations that make no sense!LOL

JD’s mother was wrong for the cheap shot @ the employees, saying it would have stayed open if they worked. Umm..why didnt you fire them and hire worthy staff if you felt their performance was less than desired?

JD’s mother needs to just shut up. This is no way to treat employees. These employees are entitled to receive compensation for their work. Rest assured, you’re going to see all types of lawsuits pop up behind this.
