Five Stars for Gladys' Kitchen in Americus!If you want authentic, locally owned and operated soul…read morefood, this mom-and-pop gem is a must-visit.Just a heads up on timing: they officially open at 11 AM, but today (Sunday) the doors opened at 11:55 AM once the kitchen had all the scratch-made food ready to go. There was already a crowd waiting out front, which is always the best sign of a great local restaurant! It is a cafeteria-style setup with an amazing Sunday lineup. They had both fried and baked chicken, fried pork chops, turnips, rice, black-eyed peas, mac & cheese, fried green tomatoes, steamed okra, and dressing. I had the fried chicken along with the turnip greens, black-eyed peas, and fried green tomatoes. Every single bite was fresh and delicious. The greens and black-eyed peas completely stole the show--easily some of the best I've ever tasted. The friendly staff keeps the line moving smoothly. Don't let a slight opening delay deter you; the food here is absolutely worth the wait!

From the moment we walked in, it felt like visiting your favorite aunt's house on a Sunday after church. The food was hot and fresh, and the staff was friendly and attentive. Everything was well-seasoned, and the chicken was cooked perfectly. The dressing was a tad dry but still flavorful. The collard greens may have been cooked with pork, which I don't eat, so I didn't have them--but I did taste them. They were finely cut, well-seasoned, and definitely not from a can. As I was leaving, I was asked about my experience, and I later realized I was speaking with Ms. Gladys herself. She was sitting in the lobby, observing and ensuring that everyone had a great dining experience. I highly recommend this place for both the food and the hospitality. This feels like "down home"

However that second Sunday the plates were a bit skimpier. I assume it was the owner that plated our orders on the second visit. There are tables to dine in, however it appears most people take their orders to go. Honestly the decor isn't very inviting to sit down and enjoy your meal. There's also a drive thru, but it appears you have to order and wait at the same window so not sure how fast it moves.

It has been a little over a year since I first learned about Krave Eatery & Dessert Shop through…read moreTikTok, which prompted me to travel over two hours to visit this viral restaurant sensation. Since my initial experience, I have returned on three additional occasions, sampling as many menu items as possible, since I never know when I might next be able to return. Krave is operated by a family team consisting of a father, mother, daughter, and son, who clearly put their Christian values on full display as they demonstrate exceptional hospitality and professionalism in all aspects of their business (including a score of 100 on their recent Food & Services Inspection Report). During my first visit, their genuine friendliness and warmth was notable. Afterwards, I discovered that Khaira, the daughter, serves as a youth and young adults pastor, while her father, David, is the senior pastor at their church-which aligns with the attentive service provided. During my initial trip, I was unaware of the restaurant's significant popularity; despite arriving an hour and a half after opening, I waited in line for 45 minutes and barely obtained one of the last available plates. Learning from this, I arrived earlier on my subsequent visits, twice being the first in line ;-) KRAVE EATERY operates primarily on Wednesdays and Thursdays, with occasional Friday "pop-up" events. It is advisable to check their Facebook page for specific Friday openings, as each day features a distinct menu. To date, I have not attended on a Wednesday but did manage to visit on a Friday. The typical menu schedule is outlined below: WEDNESDAY * Jerk Salmon * Jerk Seafood Pasta * Sweet Chili Salmon * Yellow Rice * Grits * Kale * Spoon Bread * Soup of the Day THURSDAY * Roasted Turkey Wings (THIS IS A MUST TRY ITEM) * Smothered Pork Chops * Braised Oxtails (THIS IS A MUST TRY ITEM) * Collard Greens * Sautéed Squash * Yellow Rice * Mac & Cheese * Sweet Potato Soufflé * Potato Salad * Cornbread Dressing FRIDAY * Braised Oxtail Pasta * Sweet Chili Pork Chops * Smothered Baked Chicken * Sautéed Green Beans * Yellow Rice * Mac & Cheese * Sautéed Cabbage * Sweet Potato Soufflé * Red Velvet -- Coconut Velvet -- Nana * Pudding -- Berry Peach Cobbler (THIS IS A MUST TRY ITEM) [Please note that menu items are subject to change.] I have sampled nearly every dish offered on Thursdays and Fridays, except for the sweet chili pork chops. While I did not prefer the smothered pork chops or barbecue chicken wings on separate occasions, the other dishes were consistently well-prepared, generous in portion size, and reasonably priced. Having experienced a wide variety of southern cuisine, I can confidently say that Krave's oxtails, and turkey wings rank among my top five favorites, and the mac & cheese, dressing and sweet potato soufflé are high on my list as well. [ FINAL THOUGHTS ] Krave Eatery & Dessert Shop merits the two-hour journey, not only for its quality food but for the overall dining experience. I plan to return next on a Wednesday to sample the Jerk Salmon Seafood Pasta and kale, both of which come highly recommended by other patrons I have met while standing in line.
