I had turkey wings, dressing and collard greens and cornbread. Everything was good except for the collard greens, they were terrible. I will get the cabbage the next time. read more

The service was great and the food was OMG delicious!! We drove from Decatur and Ellenwood and it was well worth the trip! Fried catfish was amazing! The collards, yams, cabbage, dressing, and Mac & cheese were so good I ordered a veggie plate to go! We will definitely return!! read more

The food was very tasty and fresh. The service was nice and friendly. I got it to go but would have been comfortable eating in.

Great food and customer service! The ambiance was very clean and welcoming as well. A friend who lives close told me about a good soul food spot in the area, so that's why I decided to try Gigi's. read more

For my first time there it was just ok... Cube steak and rice was actually 9/10 but the sides were ok. Collards a little to salty for my liking and cabbage seasoned different than I'm use too. So overall 7.5 out of 10 for food. But place was clean and cashiers were friendly.. 10/10!! Love that it's big enough to have events... somebody was having 80th birthday party read more

GiGi's Place - Cube steak... cabbage and collard greens... - Soul Food Near Me - Covington, Georgia

The food is exceptional! Wow! We had fried whiting and oxtails! The whiting was crisp and delicious! The oxtails were good but could have been great....with more gravy! They were tender! The collards, Mac and cheese and potato salad were seasoned well and tasted real good!! Met the owner, Gigi, she understands the assignment of an owner in the competitive Atlanta food scene. The ambience of the restaurant is nice and clean and space for large parties. Kudos Gigi...we will be back! read more

Food is on point Service is nice and friendly The restaurant has a nice atmosphere and plenty of room read more

I haven't had the opportunity to try the food yet, so my feedback is based on the customer service experience. Customer service is the lifeline of any business, and it plays a huge role in shaping a customer's overall impression. Regardless of whether someone is placing an order or picking one up for someone else, every guest should feel welcomed and valued. I would encourage the team to focus on providing a friendlier and more attentive attitude toward customers--it makes a big difference and leaves a lasting positive impression. read more

I just moved to Georgia and tried them out fish was really over cooked and was given the wrong cake; and not to friendly one and done for me

I found this spot while visiting Conyers. GiGi's had great reviews so I was extremely excited to try it out. So I'm always gonna start off with the good first. I loved the restaurant's decor and design, location also has plenty of parking. The customer service was amazing. Everyone was warm and friendly. Gigi's also has a kiosk in the restaurant where you could order your food from if the line is too, I thought that was pretty cool as well. But that's where the good ends. The food was not good at all. I didn't like not one thing on my plate. I ordered pork chops, mac and cheese, and collard greens. Banana pudding as well. Everything looked like it was gonna be delicious but unfortunately, it wasn't. The banana pudding seemed store-bought. So you can imagine how pissed I was after paying an arm and leg for the food. Also, the bathroom was disgusting. I know that doesn't have anything to do with the food, but if you don't keep the bathroom clean that guest can actually see how does the kitchen look? and I got there about 30 mins after they opened so it had to still be dirty from another day. Everybody's taste buds are different so you may love GiGi's but I won't be returning. read more

The food , service & ambiance NEVER miss ! My go to is the baked chicken dinner with mac & chz with yams

OMG! this is literally the best soul food place I have EVER been to! If I could give ten star I would, definitely will be coming back here. The service was amazing, they were very nice! I loved the ambiance quiet, a great tone to enjoy the food. I hope it doesn't become to popular and the doors are flooded with people, because this may be my new spot! :) read more

3/10 I went today the yams were dry and lacked flavor , so was my whiting. The Mac serving was mostly cheese from the top with hard Mac shells.. the only thing good was the fact the food was very hot! read more

I wasn't sure about this place but my friend wanted to go here so we did!! Super friendly workers. Food was home cookin soul food. It really tasted home made. read more

I've eaten here a few times and can confirm that the food here is consistently underwhelming. I wish I could say I liked the food here. The mac n cheese is often dry and flavorless (maybe dry due to it sitting for a long time). The gravy and meat dishes don't have much flavor. The rice feels parboiled yet undercooked. My cornbread had a bad aftertaste and doesn't have that signature cornbread flavor - it feels like cake mix. Most recently, I had fried fish and the hot sauce in the little hot sauce packets they provided turned my food pink. Other visits, I've had the greens and they tasted raw and tough. I'm still on the search for good soul food in the conyers/covington area. Hopefully I find it one day! read more

Customer Service is excellent and very welcoming. The food is not the best. I purchased the Mac n Cheese, collard greens, corn bread dressing and black eye beans. The food is not up to par with the price. I am not a cook myself but I know what soul food tastes like read more

Okay This food was amazing First time I ate a whole platter of food Then black eye peas and rice man oh man were they good. The yams was on point and the chicken was just how I liked it fried hard. My husband has not came of for air once since he opened the platter. Good good will go back again read more

This location is the cutest! I loved the atmosphere and decor in this Resturaunt. Everything was very clean and well lit. The staff were very kind and the kiosk was a great modern touch to ordering your food quicker. The kitchen was very well organized and extremely clean. The food was phenomenal. I ordered the baked chicken deluxe and chose baked macaroni and yams as my sides. I also requested extra gravy. The baked chicken was thoroughly cooked and very flavorful. The rice was firm but not crunchy and the macaroni was cooked to perfection. The yams were great! Not too sweet but not too savory either. Lastly, is the cornbread muffin. It was enjoyable, but could use some butter, however i thoroughly loved this meal and would return again. I also ordered their homemade sweet tea and it is indeed sweet, but still delicious- perfect for washing down the cornbread. I added some cranberry sauce to my Meal and that completely took it to another level. I highly recommend you visit for high quality and delicious soul food in a clean environment with wonderful staff. The energy was great and the staff seems to actually enjoy their jobs. 10/10 read more

Great customer service. It was a nice setting & the Mac was delicious! Also the banana pudding cake was amazing .

Food was good. If you're looking for nice home cook food, then this is a great spot. Mango lemonade is homemade and the cup is pretty big so I liked that. Came with a cornbread muffin on the side. Service was pretty good as well. Only suggestion is the rice that came with the chicken. It was plain, so maybe jazz it up a little and it will be better read more

The food was exceptional. It was a little bit too salty for me. The service was a plus and the ambience is very nice.

. I spent $40 for two dinners the collard greens I don't know what they taste like candy yam was out of the can the dressing was stove top stuffing the food was horrible I won't go back there no more they need a soul food cook in there that stuff out of the can I'm very disappointed looking for Southern soul food cooking I could have bought that out the can myself like I said no more. read more

Very good, nice variety of soulful eats, especially the smothered pork chop which is my go to choice. Service is quick and friendly. In my rotation at least a couple of times a month. read more

Clean building, friendly staff,an awesome food....What more could u ask for?...My personal favorite is the Turkey Wing dinner

I went to Gigi's to get some sides to go along with a venison roast my wife was preparing. As I was on the phone, I logged into Yelp and then from there to GrubHub to place the order while sitting in the parking lot. Not sure exactly how but instead of a pick up, it got slated as a delivery. When I went in to pick it up, after a moment of confusion the store personnel realized that the delivery driver had already taken it. This was a mystery as I had not entered any address for him to deliver it to so I guess the driver and his family ate good that night! The staff was very apologetic, they contacted Grubhub who amazingly could not contact their driver! After finding this out, the staff replaced the the order & sent me on my way. They were very courteous & the food was GREAT Thanks for fixing something that was not your fault! We will be back! Thanks again read more

Naahhh.... The food taste like someone found out how to make food but not cook and season. Everything has no flavor or or wrong flavors. I got the max n cheese, greens, yams, grilled salmon, white rice and potato salad. I didn't even taste it all, I threw it away. Looks very good. But it ain't it. Service was great though. Restaurant seemed clean. No bugs. Oh wait, the corn bread was very good. read more

Came here the first time in 2021. They had the buffet which was delicious! We came back November of 2022, totally revised. The inside was beautiful, no more buffet, at least for dinner. I had the fried chicken, Mac n cheese, and collards. It all was better this time then our first visit, which was good. Idk what they did but more spices and flavor. Hubby had catfish, collards and Mac n Cheese. His fish was Amazing! The host, Leslie, was very attentive to us. So far our favorite soul food restaurant read more

Just enjoyed my food. Even though the portions are generous, I could have eaten two dinners. read more

Visiting after the remodel by restaurant impossible. Place Is so cute inside. The decor is just adorable. The staff was pleasant. And the food was good. We ordered from the menu, which was limited due to being out of everything. The mac and cheese was the best I've ever had. I will definitely go back for the cafeteria style of Sunday. Well done. read more

After spending five minutes trying to figure out their ordering system I was not willing to pay $15 for a veggie plate or $18 for a chicken lunch. I hope the food is amazing but I walked out due to their business structure. read more

This was my first visit at GiGis. I wanted soul food that was close to home. Anyways as I walked in the restaurant it was very clean and organized for pick up orders. I ordered a turkey wing plate with 2 sides (Mac & cheese/yams) I told the server I wanted a turkey wing plate but she gave me baked chicken instead. No I wasn't watching her fix my plate b/c I was looked off. The chicken was good. Just seasoned baked chicken. The yams were delicious. The Mac & cheese was to salty for me so I didn't even bother to finish it. read more

I really try to support local businesses faithfully. I also try to find good in every situation. Here's the good. 1.The ordering process went very smoothly. 2. The food looked very enticing . That's it! After spending over $50 on this past Sunday evening, 1. Part of what was supposed to be delivered was missing. 2. The fried chicken platters or were both a bit salty. 3. The baked chicken platter came with a big bloody thigh & leg portion . We gotta do better folks! read more

Although I LOVE supporting black businesses and I would love to leave a higher review, I can't this time. I visited this restaurant for the first time today and I was not pleased. I ordered three meals, all which were nasty. The cat fish tasted and smelled as if it were cooked in old batter or grease. My sons ribs didn't have ANY sauce on them, none at all! My husbands Lima beans were hard, and the yams were Bruce's yams, straight out of the can, no extra sugar or spices to them.. we gave the baked chicken and ribs to our dogs and trashed everything else. I'm very disappointed.. although I will say that the mango tea that they make is AMAZINGLY delicious that was the only tasty thing on the menu read more

Yes! Yes! Yes! Is this place fancy, no. Does this place welcome you with open arms and a gorgeous smile along with all the other staff serving? YES! Is the food exactly what it is quoted to be YES! I don't need fancy. I need heart warming, comfort, delicious food from the soul and GiGi's place delivered! I'm a southern girl who grew up on a farm and had to pick, shuck, shell, food during the summer to eat well during the winter months. I moved to Atlanta area 22 years ago and rarely find a gem that produces home cooked meals like my mother did. The menu changes daily according to website. I visited today on a Thursday and had country fried steak, dressing and gravy, white rice with gravy and collards! YES I TOOK IT TO THE EXTREME because I couldn't tell you the last time I had country fried steak along with all those sides. This meal is actually what my mother makes for me for my birthday meal when I make the five hour trip home. First off the steak I cut with a fork....the cubed (country fried) steak my mother makes, I have to cut with knife. Not GiGi's! The flavor of the gravy and steak was unbelievable. The collards were top three I've ever eaten and I promise you I travel extensively for work and seek out soul food, most of the time to be let down. I can't believe I found such a gem 20 minutes from my central corporate office. My waistline will not thank me, but I thank you GiGi for the amazing food you produce read more

I enjoyed everything I had here. It was good soul food. The cornbread is a little sweet. The greens and meatloaf were good. The mac & cheese was not the best I have had but I enjoyed it. So where would this place rate in my foodie mind? The food is good and I will go back but it's not a place that comes across as extra special that you want to tell all your friends about. I call it good but not great. It's missing any wow factor but maybe that's the point of good ol home cooking. read more

GiGi's Place - Lunch plate with Meatloaf, Mac & Greens. - Soul Food Near Me - Covington, Georgia

The boy at the front was super sweet which is why they get 3 stars. The food was disgusting, especially for the price point. I paid 80+ dollars for 3 plates that weren't good enough to be eaten, the presentation is okay but the taste is mediocre! I even had to turn around and come back because most of my order was incomplete and the only thing they could do for my inconvenience was give me a dry ass cornbread that sits in a drawer like warmer.. read more

Food was cold and microwaved. Not sure if it was old or not but it definitely did not taste fresh. They gave me a iced tea that had stuff floating in it. Yes they changed it but that's still kind of alarming. Overall, I won't be back. read more

I visited GiGi's place for the first time on Sunday. I came upon this restaurant while searching for a Soul Food Restaurant near me. It is very close to my home which makes it quite accessible! I must report that customer service was excellent! Due to Covid/19, no in house dining was allowed! This day, we ordered fried chicken and oxtails. For my sides, I chose collard greens and yams . My wife had oxtails on rice with Mac and cheese and string beans as a side. The portions were modest to say the least! I received one keg and one thigh for approximately nine dollars ! This was More expensive than some other restaurants offering the sane type of goods. The taste of the food was good but wasn't excellent! I would return to this restaurant again to see if everything remained the same or if there were any improvements! All in all, I must give it a "B" rating! read more
