The food was fresh. However, for the 2-item combo for $8.99, Roy should throw in a piece of bread or a piece of cornbread.Food: 5/5

Roy's catfish is consistently fresh and perfectly fried. I always choose to get my fish from Roy's because his service is top-notch.

The catfish was tough and chewy, the collard greens were soggy, and the mac and cheese was so bad that I had to spit it out. The cornbread was also tough and di...
