    I love that we have a soul food option finally. My first visit came for an early lunch before the line got long. Plenty of options to choose from and food is presented well. I had the baked turkey wings, and they were very tender and flavored the greens were OK as well as the macaroni and cheese. Love the okra and the peach cobbler. Salmon was very good. Portions are large For someone that doesn't cook soul food often this will be a great option to have that down home feel without getting in the kitchen. The owner was very professional nice and passionate about what she does. I would arrive early to get the choices that you want before they run out. No inside seating

    I heard about this restaurant via social media and decided to give it a try. It is set up cafeteria style and you select what you would like. When I arrived (12:30pm), the line was out the door and down the sidewalk. The wait outside was about 40 minutes and once inside, I waited about 30 minutes. Once I was able to give my order I found out they had sold out of meatloaf, turkey wings, and yams and would have to wait another 30 minutes. We ended up with the baked chicken and beef stew and both were delicious ...10 out of 10. We had not had cornbread like that since before my grandmother passed. They have only been open a week or so, I feel once they learn their customer flow, the wait won't be as long.

    I'm always on the hunt for new soul food spots and glad I found this one. The restaurant is nondescript and dedicated to takeout as there is no seating. The servers were nice and provided very generous portion sizes. I ordered chopped turkey wings with rice, mac and cheese, and collard greens. The food is flavorful and well made. I can't wait to return to try other entrees!

    Pot roast, okra & tomatoes, candy yams and biscuit.

    Good soul food close to home for Altamonte Springs, East Apopka, Lockhart residents. Great customer service that makes you feel as if you have known the owner and staff your whole life. The exchange makes you feel like you have come into contact with a family member. The restaurant setup is buffet style served by the owner and staff. There are three different plate sizes to choose from but even the smallest size has hefty servings.

    Prepare to wait in line, but trust me, it's worth the wait! I heard about it on Somebody Feed Phil…read moreand saw the profile on Instagram! I ordered a variety of food so I could take it home and enjoy a few meals. The yams are simply divine, buttery and sweet. The turkey dressing was so satisfying! The turkey wing was served with rice and was ladled with gravy. So delicious and tender! The ribs honestly could stand alone with out any sauce. The house smoked ribs have so much love and knowledge in each bite. The mac and cheese sells out, so be prepared to get in line early. The potato salad was tasty. The fried chicken was crispy and delicious. The dinners come with house made corn bread, wrapped lovingly with parchment paper. The cake was moist and delicious! I got the butter pecan cake and I can't wait to try all the other desserts!

Food portion was a bit too large for me because I just wanted a little bite for lunch, that was more a dinner plate than lunch. Then no substitution when I'm willing to pay to substitute makes no sense cuz I didn't want rice. Cornbread was dry, chicken tastes cheap, potato salad was too much and watery. I think this could have been a better experience and with some adjustments I think it can be. I love supporting small business but this experience did not make me want to come back.

    Food Made With Love…read more I'm visiting from out the state and the only food I desired was southern cooking. There were a few choices on Yelp and Google but I selected P&D. The first letter of the husband an wife names. My expectations were high, and they should have been based on the reviews. This is not a standalone location as the are other businesses within the same building. You won't see P&D on the exterior signage but you will see "Soul Food Kitchen" A la carte buffet style food served. I like this so I could see what I'm ordering. Which is way I should have not purchased the Mac&cheese. Macaroni noodles and shredded cheese melted within. A serious faux pas for macaroni and cheese. I observed how many customers appeared to be regulars, and several people were ordering additional food to take home. I ordered two full meals. The main dishes are served with cornbread dressing on the savory side or rice. One suggestion for P&D would be to offer a brown gravy option alongside that is not meat-based specifically for the dressing. The highlights for me were the yams, fried fish, and pork chop and red velvet cake. Those dishes were well seasoned & well-prepared. Without being critical of the other side dishes this is what I would say: Sharing a few side dishes with your group before committing to larger portions. If you're a singleton stick to yellow rice, yams, and beans. While some food choices did not meet my palate, I can understand why this place has a loyal following. The welcoming familial atmosphere, location, and comfort food are sometimes the basics of what people need to get through the day. Service: 5 stars Food portions: 5 stars Food presentation: 4 stars Parking: 5 stars Returning?: Unlikely "When food is made with love, it's hard to critique the heart."

It was so good that I came back the very next day and brought my sister and my niece. This time, I ordered tacos and a birria quesadilla (the one that looks like a pizza). They also offer an actual birria pizza, but we went with the quesadilla -- and let me tell you, it was BIG as hell. Everything was seasoned perfectly, tasted amazing, and the presentation was on point. Now, let's talk about the location because you might think you're in the wrong place. When you pull up, it looks like an industrial area -- big parking lot, office buildings, and the place doesn't even look open. The windows are so dark and tinted you can't see inside, the parking lot might be empty, and you'll be questioning everything. Still pull on the door. When you open it, you'll see they're open. It's to-go only, no dine-in seating. The service is friendly, and they'll give recommendations if you ask. You order through a kiosk, and honestly, everything on the menu is good. I've had the tacos, burritos, quesadillas, and even the ramen -- all solid. But let me be VERY clear... My favorite thing on the menu, hands down, is the fried bread pudding. That shit is on another level. Straight up dangerous. I swear I went into a sugar coma after eating it because I passed out immediately after. It's that good. I didn't even wait until after my entrée the second time -- I ordered the dessert first because I already knew what it was giving. No pictures. No regrets. I'll absolutely be back.

I've been wondering for a while where to get some good stick to your ribs so food, so when my wife told us that Nikki's Place reached out to her to come try some authentic soul food, I had to join her. We had to make sure to get an array of different things to try as much as possible. So we ordered.. smothered pork chops, fried catfish and shrimp, lemon butter chicken wings, red rice, Collard greens, Lima beans, black eyed peas, cornbread, candied yams, mac and cheese, and some onion fries.. with some sweet tea. I want to tell you, every bite I took had me closing my eyes and smiling. My only complaint was the lima beans were a little bit salty, but when I ate it with everything else it didn't really matter. The lemon butter fried chicken wings were absolutely amazing. I have not tasted anything like that in my life. You can't go there and not get them. You need these wings. I'd also like to say that all the sides are meat-free , so vegetarians come get some . We ate till we were full, and we had enough to take home as well. We took an order of bread pudding home for dessert and that was absolutely delicious too. Overall absolutely great food. The staff took care of us very well. Highly recommended!

This authentic taste of soul food is on par to what I grew up eating at my grandma's house. Everything from smothered pork chops with fried okra to fried chicken and collard greens. Not to mention they're amazing yams. Their legacy, their hold on tradition and the ongoing consistency is what keeps me going back.

I have a saying: try everything twice, as you never know what may have gone wrong or right, the first time. Consistency is key. This review has been a long time coming, but I can say beyond any doubt Mad Crab Seafood is the place to get your seafood needs sent to heaven! Along with an amazing variety of choices (as long as you get there before they sell out; for good reason!) you can customize things the way you want. A total judgement free zone, they expect you to get messy and provide plenty of ways to clean up. Heat options are there, and the amount of flavor in every bite never fails to amaze. Constantly wanting to please, they adapt their menu and ALWAYS provide premium quality. Family. That's how you will be treated here. Even on my first time visiting, we felt like timeless friends from the start. There is nothing better than eating amazing food while having a smile from ear to ear for the entirety of your stay. I cannot think of any business more deserving of your attention. Once again, thank you Molene & Family for the amazing meals you have provided. I am sorry for being absent for so long, but as always, Keep moving forward!
