Description

This is the sort of place whose description necessitates the mention of something like: "Now mind you, it's not much to look at." It appears to have once been a Dairy Queen-like operation, a stand-alone rectangular box with an angled take-out window. But for those willing to take the road less traveled for the sake of something as trivial as distinctively tasty turkey wings - well, let's talk about those turkey wings: Chopped on each end, they look a little like ribs and boast fully seasoned flavor beneath glistening mahogany skin. Mazie's, whose motto is "where the homies meet," opens 7 a.m. and dispenses tasty breakfast subs for $3.50 - try the bacon and egg. Lunch specials are just a dollar more and bring a hot, hefty main course with choice of one starch and one side. The dinner specials, which can be had during lunch as well, are $6.50 and come with one starch and two sides. Here is what we received for $22: lemon pepper chicken wings, turkey wings, a smothered pork chop, baked chicken with barbecue sauce, mashed potatoes with gravy, collard greens, stewed okra and tomato, yellow rice, rice and beans, macaroni and cheese, black-eyed peas, lima beans, and a wedge of homemade yellow cake with chocolate frosting. Tax is included, but don't forget to put some bills into the tip jar. Mazie's is simply solid soul food at a bargain price - to go. Nuff said.
