    I ventured off in search of soul food restaurants in the Eastpointe area about a month ago. Now the funny thing is that someone referred me to another soul food place that happened to be right across from the By Felecia restaurant. I drove there and noticed the restaurant that I was attempting to go to was closed, although the website of the establishment noted otherwise. So while sitting in my car disappointed, I noticed the By Felecia restaurant, but when I went to google the hours (this was a Sunday afternoon), the hours indicated that the restaurant was closed. About a minute later, I saw someone walking out the restaurant, so I decided to just try my luck and walk into the establishment, and I'm happy that I did! I was greeted by a woman, who I'm assuming is Felecia. She was nice, and explained her menu. She told me that they are usually closed on Sundays, but since she has special requested orders, she opened today. The menu for that day was Turkey Legs, Yams, Dressing, and Greens. I told her I would order that! I'm not a big fan of greens, but I didn't mind trying something new. Once she gave me the order, I kept thinking to myself the bag was very heavy. Once I got home, goodness! She had given me such much food! I literally ate on the food for 3 days, and still ended up throwing the rest out that I didn't eat. The portions were huge!! And on top of the dinner, she gave me an extra side of macaroni and cheese, and mashed potatoes/gravy. That was just extra. The dinner also came with cornbread, a slice of pound cake, and cup of look aid. All of that for $16.00 was definitely worth it in my opinion! All of the food was very good, nicely seasoned! Felecia also told me about her Seafood Boils that she sells only on Fridays. I definitely will return to try more of her food, and I have already put the word out to my friends that this is a nice hidden gem in the area!

    Obviously you can't hear the hostility through the photo

    This is sad. You have an attitude with me and treat me poorly. Then follow it up by harassing me with a nasty voicemail ? Then you try to hide my review and delete the photo evidence I posted of your voicemail. This behavior is disgusting. It's starting to feel like you target the same types of people. Grow up.

    This is a small suburban hole in the wall type of restaurant. Jamaican Food in the burbs. It's a…read moresimple place with Jamaican colors and a few cool art pieces. They have a television and it's clean. The owners give it a Jamaican feel and vibe. I believe it's a couple that owns it. The man working the counter was pleasant. The food comes out hot and promptly. So no issues with service. However, the prices inside and online don't match. I need an updated menu to make sure that I am paying the correct price. As far as the food it was decent. I really liked some items and others were just ok. The Jerk Shrimp is a winner. The shrimp are seasoned with some love. The flavor is amazing with the sauce and the vegetables are delicious. 4 STARS The cabbage is lacking in taste. I expected it to be more flavorful. It could have been a bit softer too. 2 STARS The oxtails were tender, but again lacked in flavor and seasoning. 3 STARS The rice was cooked perfectly. 4 STARS The plantains weren't good. Something was missing. I was disappointed with them. 2 STARS The portion size is good for the price. I felt they gave me a fair amount of food. It's hard for me to rate them. I love supporting small businesses. However, I have definitely had better Jamaican food in the USA. I also have been to Jamaica and loved the food. I would definitely recommend the Jerk Shrimp. I would return for this and the rice only. Overall I would give it a 3.5 STARS. It was cool to try a new place while visiting home. I always enjoy having a new experience. I'm not brave enough to try the cow foot on the menu. I do wish them success.

Because my first experience wasn't too bad and I only had sides I decided to go back recently and try some more items. This time I ordered fried fish, yams, Mac & cheese, dressing with gravy and cornbread. I also got a lemon cake for dessert. I did not enjoy my food this time around it was not as constant as the first time I tried it. The location is an order and go restaurant so you do not dine in.There is a pretty big menu to choose from. The location was clean and a little hot so I recommend waiting for your order in the car. Good customer service.

There is plenty of parking The restaurant is a small space. This is not a dine in restaurant, you will order your food and take it out. I would suggest after ordering your food to wait in the car. There is plenty of variety on the menu. In my opinion the food is pricey and not worth it. I ordered the fried catfish with yams and mac & cheese. The fish was ok but was not very flavorful, the yams tasted canned and the mac&cheese was off i didn't enjoy the taste and the cheese was falling off the noodles. My daughter ordered the beef tips which she did not enjoy. And the fried okra tasted steamed rather than fried. The cornbread was good but it was not homemade. Also after tasting the lemon cake I discovered it was also store bought. The customer service was good, the lady taking orders was really sweet.
