$30 for 2 people to eat which in this time is reasonable but for the 20+ minute wait time I wouldn't say is worth it. In my opinion the place is overhyped, great amount of spice however, and the fries were quite good, as well the Mac and cheese. 

Business response:

We'd really love a second chance to earn those 2 extra stars. If you have a few extra seconds, would you mind connecting with us at https://tellusdirect.com/dhc?

1) these expensive combos out included drink. 2) to you're in the south it's not that hard to make real tea especially if you're gonna charge $3-4 dollars for a drink 3) I've been to some places that ask you to tip, but it's because they at least come out and see if you need anything, or they would at least bring the food to you, hear your requesting a tip then you yell my number from the counter for me to go get my food after I've made my drink Pluses are the food is good and the portion sizes are decent. 

Business response:

Not busy at all when we arrived but floors and tables were dirty. Son and husband both ordered a slider/tenders/fries combo. It was an impressive meal in size -- the "slider" was about the size of a chick-fil-a sandwich. Also impressed that my super picky kid will actually eat the kale slaw that comes on the sandwiches. He orde... read more
