This restaurant has several locations in Tucson and the placque on the wall said it has been in business for 35 years. There was a constant stream of customers; most of them picking up food to go.The menu is simple; fried chicken in various amounts, fried shrimp, and burgers. With each order you get french fries and a pc. of garlic toast which was really just well buttered Wonder bread. The prices are incredibly inexpensive.
Bill had 1 chicken breast which he really enjoyed. I had the Mama's portion of shrimp (7 pieces). I was pleasantly surprised. The shrimp really tasted like shrimp and it had the correct texture of shrimp (unlike Long John Silver's "shrimp" (previously reviewed) which was more like shrump like in "you are a chump for thinking you can get a real crustacean here." and i liked the thin breading. The fries were also quite good; crispy and not greasy.
Neither of us ate the garlic toast. Oh, we also shared a container of coleslaw. I didn't like it but Bill did so we brought what was left home for his lunch.
Wonder if their burgers even come close to our favorites? I'm going to try that next.
