The menu centers on expertly seasoned fried chicken paired with house-made honey butter and spicy hot sauces that define the regional culinary profile.

The interior reflects an unpretentious industrial aesthetic featuring rustic textures and communal seating arrangements that facilitate a direct focus on the food. Each dish relies on traditional smoking techniques to achieve deep, savory profiles throughout the extensive protein options. Patrons experience a consistent commitment to comfort food classics that honor the culinary traditions of the American South through precise preparation and robust flavor combinations.

Wow! Quelle découverte. Petit resto de quartier offrant une cuisine maison style pub tex-mex, ambiance chaleureuse & festive. Tout est fait maison & ça se goûte. Le poulet frit (avec un glaze au miel) est phénoménal. Dans les meilleurs poulets frits que j'ai mangés. Une panure épaisse & croustillante, un poulet juteux & un glaze sucré qui complimente le tout! J'y retournerai assurément pour goûter à d'autres plats.

Quelle belle découverte sur la rue Roy. L'ambiance est vraiment accueillante & on s'y sent tout de suite bien.

Les tacos étaient absolument délicieux, avec une présentation soignée & beaucoup de fraîcheur, notamment grâce aux oignons rouges & à la coriandre qui rehaussaient parfaitement le tout. Accompagner cela d'une boisson bien fraîche avec une tranche de citron, c'était exactement ce qu'il fallait pour passer un excellent moment. Je recommande sans hésiter.

J'étais un grand fan du Ice House, mais notre dernière visite a été très décevante. On dirait qu'il y a eu une baisse de qualité. Burrito au poulet frit avait juste du riz, de la salade & du poulet frit trop cuit. Le menu sur l'ardoise indique des ingrédients différents de ce qu'on a reçu, dommage.

Ive been frequenting this restaurant for over a decade now. The food is consistent across the years, delicious & straight to the point. Shout out to the fried chicken bucket, the chicken tacos & jalapeno poppers!

I wholeheartedly recommend this place to anyone who wants to enjoy a lively spot & good food!

Best of luck to the new owners!

Been a customer since 2015 & sadly this place lost its magic. Food quality has gone down, recipes changed, & service is just bad.

Ordered half a bucket today. 45 mins wait for soggy, overcooked fried chicken. Asked the waiter for some kind of explanation for the wait. He sighted & left.

Please do better, this place is an institution
