    Mega Fish Platter (5 whiting filets, mac n cheese & string beans)
    Ashlye H.

    Is it bad that I found this restaurant off of another soul food restaurants review? If it is then I'm very happy to have found it to try them out! Ordered via the website and I liked that they show you the process of your food order and notify you promptly, keeping the anticipation low is great for me. It took 15min after submitting for the food to be ready and this was easy to locate. I ordered the Mega Fish Platter (5 whiting filets) with Mac n cheese & string beans, a kids roast chicken with Mac n cheese & candied yams, cornbread, large banana pudding & their lemonade. The amazing thing is that all of this food was $37. The food is pretty good and took me back to those after Sunday service (possibly 2nd service) food that the elders would prepare. My only let down was that the candied yams weren't candied and tasted like a regular baked potato with nothing on it. The Mega Fish Platter was enough for my husband & I to eat, the staff were friendly, the inside is cozy yet you're there to grub. I'll definitely be back especially to try their pound cake that I eyeballed in their dessert fridge.

    I really love Aunt Berta's for some delicious authentic soul food. The service is usually very friendly and kind. They take care of me every time I come in here. The home made drinks are delicious and the food is even better. I usually go with fried fish or fried chicken or fried fish with sides like mash potatoes, collard greens, cabbage or Mac and cheese and yams. It's all delicious. I love it so much. I eat here at least once a month if not more. And that's only because I have to pace myself otherwise I'd be eating here weekly. I don't usually stay in the restaurant and eat but they do have a homey energy inside the seating area in the restaurant. The overall atmosphere is family friendly and chill for the most part. It's always a lot of people ordering food in here because the food is delicious. I recommend ordering ahead of time if you're hungry because most of the food is made to order unless you're getting fried chicken or turkey legs or baked chicken. Some food they have ready to go but most food is made to order. Either way I LOVE this place! 10/10 would recommend.

    This place is the truth! It's a small spot with no inside seating. You stand in line and place your order and you receive your order hot!! This soul restaurant has good service. You may have to wait for the chicken since it's their biggest seller but it's worth the wait! The desserts are delish!!! The food is soooooooooooooooo good! The mac n cheese and fish was singing a song in my tummy because it was just that good!! This place is located on the corner. You can place an order for pick up as well. Don't forget to grab one of those delish pound or chocolate cake!!

    Everything was very good so close to home cooking. Only problem for ME is some of the food is prepared in advance. I personally would like fried fish just fried. Nevertheless the fish and pork chops were very good. I enjoyed the baked Mac and cheese but I got the last in the pan and it has a slight taste of being made with evaporated milk(I don't particularly care for this method) but it was good. The cabbage was tasty and not over cooked. The drawback is you have to pay for cornbread. Most soul food restaurants offer a small portion with the meal. But okay everyone is different! I ordered what they called 'Special Cornbread' it had cranberries and a hint of pineapple. Good but more like dessert. The meal I ordered was a great deal for $12.95 two entree items meat, fish, pork or poultry and two sides traditional soul food items. Overall a very good value. My server was nice although she had to work a very busy dining room alone. She was moving it, she got her exercise in this day! The dining room is small but sufficient, modestly decorated and clean. I will update the review once mom has tasted her food. I'll make a point to stop by again soon if that goes over well!

    Omg ! This place was wonderful lol, I was looking for some lunch while I was in the area this place popped up and the princes seemed to be pretty good so I decided to give it a shot. So glad it did that ! They told me they would bring my food out to me because I didn't have a mask on but after tasting that food I'll be sure to have a double mask on next time I go! The potato salad looked kinda weird but after that first bite I was a believer the Max was macin and that fish was fishing lol! I'll definitely be back to try some more of the food in the future God willing!

    I was feeling patriotic, so I decided on All-American Soul Food to honor my citizenship. Also, I'm about to hit a diet starting next week so I'm checking off things like fried chicken to satisfy my comfort food cravings before it's too late. I got here at dinner time on a week day and it was fairly busy. I had to wait a few minutes before I could order the 2-piece fried chicken special which came with two sides and corn bread. I chose the nicely buttered green beans along with the heavenly cheesy mac and cheese. I asked for white meat and got a small breast and a chicken wing. Don't expect huge chicken pieces. They weren't that large, but my god, every mouthful was pure delight. The breading was light, slightly salty, slightly peppery. Sides were two scoops worth for a serving. All in all, I was stuffed and didn't even touch the cornbread. They let me sit in the dining room, which luckily was fairly empty. Nice to have a table to sit down and enjoy the food. Miss Berta came around and asked how the meal was going to each of us, personally thanking us for stopping in and telling us to "come back now, sweetie."

    Let me start out with this, I reviewed other Yelp reviews and I'm convinced either I came on the wrong day or these Elite status reviewers aren't telling the truth at all! This place doesn't cook the food fresh, it appears to be cooked, stored, then reheated and sits in warmers! The only food prepared fresh is the fried fish, which is pretty good! However everything else is not fresh, and it is not good! The turkey wings appeared to be days old and just reheated! The greens weren't seasoned, yams not the best, mac & cheese I guess ok, I did enjoy the cabbage! However I ended up returning everything, even the cornbread was hard and old! If you're in need of something fast, then I'd say yes; however if you're looking for real down home, soul food, you'd be better off cooking it yourself!

    I/8 of the container is filled

    This place sucks. Small portions of unseasoned food- I bout a side of set of potato salad-... look- and the chicken was very bland

    The food here is fantastic! The jerk, chicken, the fried fish and even the macaroni and cheese and…read morecollard greens are fantastic! The only issue is sometimes the food is not ready when they say it will be. I had to wait an extra 30 minutes for my food to be ready past the time that they said it would be. Customer service is lacking because they don't even say "oh we're so sorry that your order wasn't ready when we said.". Thank you for your patience." They say absolutely nothing like oh well. Smh . No one's asking for anything free, just some common courtesy apologizing for an unusual wait time.

    It pains me to write this ... I'm always honest though …read more.. Rob's quality has gone down since my last visit :( My jerk chicken wasn't as plentiful as prior, and it was a bit dry. My rice and beans was a somewhat hard in a few spots too. Damn! The yams were still killer, but my poor son got screwed out of them (he loved his tender goat and sides, BTW). (I called our order in because they take long to prepare). When we arrived, I was told "we ran out of yams." Uh, it was only Noon when I placed my order! Why wasn't I told then? Did they give someone else them? Of course I gave my son half of mine! It was so darn cold (we ate in) that I left my coat on! This was either an off day or Rob's has declined. Regardless, I'm not a gambling gal and am unfortunately done here!
