The crazy Shirley's was very good, little too much spinach and a little bland but still would order again. Biscuit was not like a traditional biscuit but still very good. Coffee knocked it out of the park, 10/10.

The shrimp and grits were amazing. Also ordered the New Orleans omelet and French toast. The omelet and French toast were disappointing.
