I'd say maybe 8 tabletops. Chill ambiance and as we waited for our food, we all talked amongst ourselves. "Light skinned" took our order and was very easy going and friendly. Young fella was serving everyone's orders and is the cutest and responsible at his young age. Wait time will depend as your food is made to order, so it'll be fresh and piping hot! NOW the Big Backtivities begin as we are trying EVERYTHING we got! PLENTIFUL portions! All was SEASONED well as we had a party in our mouths! We left full WITH leftovers. I ordered a 3 meat plate - pork chop, fish, and meatloaf with dirty rice and greens, and cornbread! Added a side of yams. My wife ordered a 1 meat plate - wings with dirty rice and greens, and cornbread! All washed down with some Red Koolaid (which was sweetened to perfection)! Our second visit (2:/13) we happened to be in the area and had to stop by! "Light skinned" recognized this Big Back and welcomed us back! Young fella even recognized us too and was like you're back! Knowing how filling and portions being huge, we decided to share a 1 plate - wings extra lemon pepper, yams, broccoli cheese casserole, and cornbread. And of course the kool aid! 10/10 recommend! Thank you "Light Skinned" Melvin and the Young Fella "Nephew" for y'all's hospitality - we definitely are repeat customers!

Ma Parker prides herself on family, giving people second chances and a decent meal for a reasonable price. Everyone who came in for lunch paid Ma Harper respect and was treated like family. The decor is die-hard NOLA with tons of memorabilia. The booths and chairs are old but the food is made with pride and love. The fried shrimp po-boy, fully dressed on a perfect NOLA roll was a must try. A small side of red beans and rice was also included. The sandwich was packed with crispy fried shrimp, but the normal remoulade sauce was replaced with ketchup / mayo mixture, not savory. The red beans and rice were fine but lacked real flavor. I am glad I gave Ma Harper's Creole Kitchen a chance. Many of the frequent flyers here, obviously love this neighborhood staple. Ma Harper's has a big heart and I wish her continued success. Dining here is more than food, it can also be about love and feeding people. Thanks Ma Harper for a memorable experience.

I looked over the menu & even mentioned to the lady that it's my 1st time here....She said take your time as I looked at the menu, asked a few questions & went with the Wings & Waffle Combo plus Drink for $19.99 plus tax.....I had #22 tag & tried sitting at the counter but I was almost suffocating myself, so I decided to eat outside with the little outdoor seating tables. I told the guy behind counter that I'd be outside, so whenever the Waffle was done to bring it out. Well, it never came & I ate the 6 wings that I had. I was expecting to be blown outta my mind with flavors or tastes that I haven't had for awhile, but Nopeeee it was just some average wings & NOTHING Special. I came back inside to enquire about my Waffle & the young Man from the kitchen came out to tell me that there was an issue with the Waffle & it came out soupy. So I said alrighty then, what ya gonna do for me then? He said they'd give me some more Wings, I said sure, that would do & I really appreciate the kindness & follow through. When they finally told me that the wings we're ready, they must fixed the Waffle maker & gave me a Waffle too. Again, I was thankful & pleased until I took this order TOGO. I attempted to eat the Waffle dry, No Syrup or anything?? Then I took out my receipt & I Immediately was Shocked & Pissed Off The machine I used to checkout had a spot for tips or custom tip, I made the purchase for $19.99 plus tax & tip of $3.00 dollars ~ but when I looked at my sales receipt it showed a 30.00 Tip I said Hellll Nawwww, I called back this location & no answer but I left a vmail about this situation & scenario ~ No One Returned My Call ‼ So NOT Only was this Food OverPriced but also OverRated & scammed Me of an extra $27 Bucks Needless to say, I'm contesting this transaction with My Chase Bank & will get my monies back momentarily ~ But I'm Never-Ever gonna come back or try anything from this Establishment again‼ As far as Me, Myself & I goes....as a Former Chicagoan from the Southside, I've had plenty of Real Soul Food & My Tastebuds have sampled countless delicacies from around America & the Globe I typically don't like to leave "Bad Reviews" but after waiting until today for someone to correct or respond to Me, I felt compelled to explain my outburst & remarks.

We went back to Southerleigh for Restaurant Week last weekend. For $30, you got an appetizer,…read morechoice of main course, and a dessert. In my experience, Restaurant Week dishes were normally smaller portions, but not at Southerleigh! We ordered 3 Dinners and had enough for another two meals, and every bite was incredible. Chicken Cracklins: How these were not in a pool of grease and were perfectly crispy and seasoned was impressive but not a surprise, because Southerleigh knows how to fry chicken! Deviled Eggs: They're the devil because I could eat 12 of them and have no regrets. Creamy, nice bit of bacon on top, and absolutely delicious. Fried Pickles (GF): Y'all. I've never had fried pickles like these before. Perfectly crispy and not even a little greasy. Ranch was delicious, special sauce excellent. I could eat those fried pickles every day - my doctor would love it. Half Chicken (GF): Outstanding. I'm forever amazed but how good this GF chicken is. Unreal. 10/10. Chicken Wings: Fried Catfish: If you have a friend whose faces squishes up in disgust when you suggest fried catfish, take them here and get them this fish. Remoulade was perfect. But the crust on that fry and how light it was + how non-greasy or heavy that fried catfish was...there are no words. I could have eaten that catfish all day. What a treat! Top it off with great, friendly service amidst being sat with multiple tables at once, a wonderfully clean restaurant, and just another top notch experience, and I have decided that I'll need to bar myself from Southerleigh for a minute because I can only buy so many new pairs of bigger pants. Go and enjoy this comfort food, GF or not!

We gave this place a try, and I genuinely want to see it do well because the space itself is really…read morenice, the location works, the decor is beautiful, and the staff were polite. That said, the food didn't quite meet expectations. Having spent considerable time in Louisiana, I've had solid Cajun and Creole cooking, so I'm coming in with a fair point of reference. The 1/4 chicken was mostly breading with not much substance underneath. The okra came out cold, and the gumbo was uneven-part of it hot, part of it not which made it feel more reheated than freshly prepared. Service was courteous, but a bit inconsistent in terms of attentiveness. I'm sharing this in the spirit of wanting the restaurant to improve, because it has a lot going for it. With more consistency in the kitchen and a bit more focus on execution, it could be a much stronger experience.

Will want to come back and try more mellow wings to get the full experience. Service was good. I would say I will do take out next time as the restaurant isn't very nice looking inside.
