    Mel & Libby's Catering - can't cook fish

    As someone born and raised in Louisiana, soul food isn't just food to me--it's home, it's family,…read moreit's love on a plate. I've been living in Arizona for almost four years now, and I haven't had real soul food in all that time... until tonight. Mel N Libby's showed up at my apartment complex, and I knew I had to try it--but I'll admit, I was nervous. If you're Southern, you know what I mean. I asked where she was from, because a real Southern cook just knows. When she said the Carolinas, I felt that nervousness melt away. I ordered the Mel Special, and let me tell you--this was a feast. Ribs, tenders, baked mac and cheese, collard greens, fried shrimp, cornbread, and banana pudding. The portions were generous, the food was hot, and every bite tasted like it was made with intention and love. My first bite honestly brought me to tears. It reminded me so much of my mom's cooking--comforting, rich, soulful. It healed a part of my homesick heart that I didn't even realize was still aching. Mel N Libby's isn't just serving food--they're serving memories, comfort, and a true taste of the South. If you're missing home, craving soul food done right, or just want a meal that feeds your spirit as much as your stomach... don't walk--run to this truck. I will be back every chance I get.

    Bleeping BAD macaroni and cheese (see photo)…read more Stinky chewy fried fish (see photo) Shrimp cooked ok but unseasoned. Asked for cocktail sauce but none was given. $23.50 and most of the food was thrown out. They should cook for the local jail and not for paying customers.

I had a conversation with a young man and futbol a international simple conversation Unfortunately he was a Messi fan .lol I recommend this food if you need a late bite ! I'll come again !

    I came to Shawarmania in Glendale because of the excellent reviews and photos online, but my…read moreexperience was extremely disappointing. The food I received looked nothing like the pictures being advertised. Instead of fresh, juicy shawarma sliced from the spit, most of the meat appeared to be burnt scraps and overcooked pieces. The chicken and lamb were extremely dry, lacked flavor, and tasted like they had been sitting for a long time rather than being freshly carved. Moreover, the portions were extremely small for the price we paid. The fries were ok- the fries they came with the wrap seemed freshly fried while the fries on the plate weren't crispy at all. The vegetables seem fresh but just fell off the fork as you tried to pick it up. For the price of $23 for the plate, it was an extremely underwhelming and disappointing plate of food. As for the wrap, it was just as bad. As you go to pick it up, everything from the meat and lettuce just fell out because they were chopped so small. For a restaurant that markets itself as serving authentic, high-quality shawarma, this was far below expectations. I understand that photos can sometimes differ from reality, but the difference here was significant. Based on the reviews, I expected fresh, flavorful shawarma. What I got was a tray of dry meat scraps with very little resemblance to the advertised product. After eating at more than a dozen different restaurants in the past year that serves shawarma and kabobs, this was the most disappointing one. I hope management takes a closer look at food quality and consistency because this experience did not live up to the reputation reflected in the reviews.
