    The food here is excellent, I highly recommend going here. I got the lamb chops with Jollof rice with a side of mac & cheese and loaded mash potatoes. Let me say everything is flavorful & delicious. My friends got wings, shrimp, sweet potato mash, chessesteak egg rolls, cabbage, among other foods and we all loved it. The manager Rory provided excellent service, she is a gem. I do wish I had more lamb chops for the price point. But head there and try for yourself.

    Fried catfish, mac and cheese, cabbage and sweet potato casserole

    Stopped here this past Sunday on our way back to Richmond after seeing Chris Brown and Usher in Charlotte. Found reviews on Tik Tok and decided to give it a try. So glad we did. Let me start by saying I am a very harsh food critic lol. I ordered the catfish with cabbage and macaroni and cheese and an extra side of sweet potato casserole. $25 for dinner plus $4 for the extra side... kind of high but the portion sizes were really good. I asked for the fish to be fried extra crispy and it came out perfectly seasoned and fried. The mac and cheese was good. There was a nice mix of cheeses and seasoned well. The cabbage was the star of the plate! It was seasoned turkey smoked sausage with red and green bell peppers and onions... so good. The flavors of sweet potato casserole were on point but I don't like the baby food texture... I prefer candied yams. I can't fault them for this because I knew what I was getting. The only thing I can critique food wise is they don't seve cornbread. Instead they gave us 2 hawaiian rolls when we were seated. I find that strange for a soul food restaurant. My friend got the 3 whole wings with the same sides as me and said they were good. She also got a rum punch from the bar that was nice and strong. Service was friendly and the food came out hot and didn't take too long. Overall, we were very pleased with Aunt E's. If I'm in the area again I will definitely be stopping by.

    I can't say enough great things about this place. The food, staff, ambiance was delightful. The salmon was the best I've ever had and I still dream about it I was passing through town by myself and decided to dine in and they made me feel right at home. I wouldn't pass this up!

    Fried Shrimp Basket

    Idk if Aunt E was actually in the kitchen or if she left her people the recipes either way the food was chefs kiss! We had the appetizer sampler with jerk rolls which were full of flavor and don't even need the sauce! The cheesesteak rolls are also good, beef patties were okay(if they let you I would replace them with rolls of mozzarella sticks) and the mozzarella sticks had the perfect pull! I ordered the shrimp basket with a side of sweet heat sauce and fries with a side of green beans!! Everything came out hot and fresh! The shrimp were large and tasty! Fries were good but the green beans were so I good I could have eaten a whole bowl! Hubby had the wings which he said were crispy and good! He also had a side of Mac and cheese which was okay but not my fav and the sweet potato casserole which was amazing! We sat at the bar and Faith was our server she was great and stayed on top of everything and gave great recommendations! The vibe was chill and had great music!! Yes they give you plastic wear and plastic cups but it was fine with me cause silverware/glasses don't get cleaned properly any way! We will be back next time we are in Greensboro!!

    Sides Garlic Green Bean and Cabbage with Sausage

    Visited here when in Greensboro for an Convocation. It was recommended to me to visit and to try the fried fish. Instead I ordered the oxtail dinner with jollof rice, and cabbage. The cabbage had a burnt taste, so I asked for macaroni and cheese which was good. The oxtails were good but have a lot of salt in the jerk sauce. The chicken wings and jerk chicken egg rolls were awesome! The experience was good and recommend if love soul food.

    I had a taste for southern fare, specifically mac&cheese and some type of vegetable. We found this place after a basic web search and it had good reviews. We arrived right when it opened and were a little confused where to go as no one was there to welcome us. It is a big place as one half is an event space and the other is a restaurant with indoor and outdoor seating. We were greeted by a waitress, who walked us to one of the dining areas near the bar. She was nice, took our drink order, and told us that she would bring some bread with our drinks. While we waited for the drinks, my wife went to the bathroom. Now, remember, we arrived right when it opened. Sadly, the restrooms were dirty. While we did see someone come clean it later, we were unimpressed that it was not clean from the beginning. Now, the food was pretty good. The bread was warm and reminded me of dinner rolls that you would buy when you wanted to impress your guest for a gathering. I ordered the bourbon salmon with mac&cheese and green beans. It was plated nicely as the salmon rested on a bed of rice. Yet, I wish the green beans were in a bigger bowl or simply placed on the main plate. The salmon was cooked pretty good. Yet, the bourbon glazed appeared to be placed on afterwards as it was very sticky so much so that I had to repeated rub my teeth. With all of that said, I think it could be a great experience after they work out some issues.

    First time at this restaurant. Ordered Bourbon Salmon, loaded mashed potatoes and cabbage. Salmon was tasty, although as you can see in the picture , cooked a little too long. Potatoes seem store bought, came out 3min after meal. Cabbage could have had a little more seasoning. Maybe sitting all day as it was late when I arrived, 8:30pm. Drink was mediocre.... Service was awesome!! After 5pm gratuity is added to the bill I would return to try another entree if in the area. 3.5 star, rounded up

    Lobby Area

    This is a restaurant & event space. We arrived at opening for lunch. I instantly loved their music selection. Think hip hop & R&B from late 90s to 2010ish, all the jams. Unfortunately, I don't think they were quite ready for guests. No one was upfront to greet us so we stood in the lobby for a few minutes. They could give more attention to cleaning (wiping tables and chairs, vacuuming floors, etc.) before the doors open. Also, the bathroom was extremely disappointing as the stalls were very dirty. In their defense, we saw someone clean the bathrooms and vacuuming before we left. Nonetheless, the food was pretty good. I got the chicken wings with green beans and sweet potato casserole. The wings were good and meaty and, but it was way too much sauce. The sides were both really good as well. My husband's salmon was amazing as well. I'll also mention that our waitress was friendly and pretty attentive. In the restaurant, they offer a mix of 2-person and 4-person tables as well as bar seating. The decor was pretty lack luster and could use an update. They have a small, private event room available. It could comfortably fit about 25 people. They also have a large event room that comes with a small stage and a private bar area. It looks perfect for small-medium weddings, birthday parties, etc. in the back is an elegant outdoor patio. Ultimately, the potential is there but they have a lot of work to do.

    Fried Flounder

    OMG I am in town to drop my son off to college. I wanted some good Southern food before I returned to California. That is some of the best southern food I've ever had. The garlic string beans reminded me of my mother's!!!! So, good. And the mashed potatoes were the best I've ever had. They were incredibly buttery. I have never had fried flounder before, but it was so crispy and flaky at the same time. It was seasoned so well. And our waitress was so friendly

    This was Jerk chicken eggs rolls

    While scrolling Facebook, I saw a their ad for 25 wings for $25. I was at a church event and…read moredecided to get some wings for dinner for my boys and I. I placed order online at 8:17pm. I got lemon pepper and garlic parm. I wish I could pick more flavors but it only allowed me to pick 2. I also got garlic parm fries that was $5. After placing tbe order, it said it would ready in 62 minutes... WOW! If I had known that, I wouldn't have placed the order, honestly. The event was ending and I was 15 minutes away from the location. I arrived around 8:45pm. It was a little confusing at first once I arrived. It is located inside a city kitchen. Inside, there is a kiosk where you must check in to let restaurant know you're there. They have all the various establishments listed. You can also order on the kiosk if you haven't already. There were about 3 parties already there waiting. There are limited seating inside. At 8:55pm, a lady said that some orders were coming in 8 minutes. My name wasn't on that list, unfortunately. She had previously brought out orders for other people. If ordering online, I feel like they need to make it so people can see how long the wait is for food PRIOR to ordering. Since I had already paid online, I had no choice but to wait and my taste buds were for the food I ordered. Plus, I was very hungry and getting hangry while waiting. At , 9:16pm, I asked for an update for my food. I was told they were working on it and it would be a couple more minutes. I FINALLY got my order at 9:23pm. I then had to drive 15 minutes home. I did eat a couple fries on the way home because I was so hungry. They were decent. They did have a crunch to them though. The wings were dissatisfying, honesty. For me, this was not worth the wait. My wings weren't crispy at all and were dark in hue. I did enjoy the lemon pepper wings more than the garlic Parmesan. The lemon pepper had more crisp but didn't have sufficient seasoning, for me. The garlic Parm flavor wasn't bold and didn't pop or stand out as it should. I love garlic and these two flavors (garlic Parm and lemon pepper) are my go to flavors for wings. I really had high hopes and expectations, especially from all the positive reviews and pictures that I saw but they just didn't meet that this time. I've had way better wings. They were hot but I'm unsure if they were fresh. The size of the wings were a plus! I was on the phone with a friend eating and discussing my experience/dissatisfaction and they suggested that it may have just been an off night because they were busy... My take on that is perfection and always getting it right is not possible. However, I would rather have waited 10-15 minutes longer to get food that was up to their standards and not rushed, than to have waited a long time for a subpar product. For me, what makes it worse is that I've been craving wings! I'm being mindful on my calorie and food intake, so me using a "cheat day" to get what I want and be dissatisfied, is so saddening. I don't know if I'll be giving them another shot. First impressions are everything.

    First time trying this place. The set up is a little unconventional but listen to me..... The best…read morewings I've tasted in these streets and the flavor and temperature lasted the 22 minute car ride home. I only stopped eating because I was full. The sweet potato fries even made a great first impression once they home as well. You have to place your order online. This is not a dine in establishment, however, the chicken wings are phenomenal!!!!! Not too bulky. Flavor was phenomenal! Can't wait to try more flavors!!!

I decided to give the catfish nuggets a try with a side of Mac and cheese and collard greens. The nuggets were a lot better than I was expecting. The fish was so flaky and the breading was the perfect about of crispiness. The collard greens were cooked well but were a little bland. Wish it also included a protein or something in it. The mac and cheese tasted a lot better than it looked. It was wasn't great but it was kind of what you'd expect of a fast casual spot. I really liked all the lemonade flavors they had. All of them were pretty good and I definitely recommend trying them out if you're not afraid of a little sugar.

The environment was beyond my expectations for the typical in-grocer restaurant. It was big, bright, well decorated, and super clean. You would never guess you were in a grocery store if you didn't have to walk through it to get inside. Because it was slow the cashier brought our food to us instead of making us get up to get it.
