I had been wanting to try this place for a while so one day I finally stopped by! When I walked in,…read moreI immediately noticed the ambiance of the restaurant and loved it. It gives a nice chill vibe and you feel right at home. They have a clear glass divide and you can see all their soul food lined up in the warming pans. I ordered the red beans and rice with smoked sausage, spaghetti and cheese, green beans and cornbread. Everything was delicious and served fresh and hot. The red beans were seasoned well with a hint of sweetness and loaded with meat. The green beans and spaghetti and cheese were great as well as the cornbread. The service was fast and great. All of the staff were so kind.

I truly love and support the owner, but I have to be honest--this place just isn't hitting for me…read more I gave it a second try hoping my experience would be better than the first time I visited the Plank Road at Harding location, but unfortunately, it wasn't. I ordered the Thursday special, and overall, the food lacked real flavor. The only seasoning that stood out was black pepper. At this point, I've come to realize that not everyone has the same standard when it comes to good food. The atmosphere had its positives--the building is nice and the space was cool--but the music was so loud that we couldn't comfortably hold a conversation, and the temperature was actually a bit too cold to fully enjoy dining in. The only items I genuinely enjoyed were the fountain drinks and the Hawaiian roll. The rest of the meal fell short. The mashed potatoes were overly saturated with gravy, and while the yams had potential, they needed more sweetness--brown sugar especially. I could taste hints of butter, cinnamon, and nutmeg, but it just didn't come together. Service-wise, the staff was polite but lacked warmth or personality. The interaction felt dry and uninviting. Even with my experience, the restaurant stayed busy, with customers continuing to come in. I really wish the food had matched my expectations, because I wanted to enjoy it--but it just wasn't for me.

I'm not exaggerating when I say I've been thinking about this meal for two weeks straight …read more Everything was seasoned perfectly, served hot, and tasted like real, down-home Southern cooking. The fish was fried just right--crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, and not greasy at all. The sides were pure comfort: flavorful, filling, and clearly homemade. And let me talk about that cornbread... old-school homemade, the kind you don't find everywhere anymore. Soft, moist, and definitely not the dry kind. Absolute perfection. On top of the food, the workers were extremely nice--welcoming, patient, and genuinely kind, which honestly makes the meal taste even better. This wasn't just a good lunch. This was the kind of food that sticks with you and has you planning your return before you even leave the parking lot. If you want a comforting Southern meal done right, this is the place.

I would say they are closer to fried potatoes, and that works for me. The flavor was tops. The veggie medley was pretty good, just needed a bit of Tony's to season it up. But the cook on the was great. Broccoli, cauliflower, carrots, zucchini and yellow squash. So good. Finally, the sensation salad was good as well. I could do with a little more dressing, but that's just how I like my salad. For a little less than 9 dollars, I'd say money very well spent. I'll be back for sure.

Treated me once I got to counter to order. I had already looked at the menu before going over so I knew what I wanted. Ordered the chicken and sausage jambalaya with potato salad. They were out of the chicken and sausage jambalaya so I had to wait about 20 mins for them to make a new batch. That was ok because I knew it would be fresh and hot. Waited at a table for my food to go. Took it back to the hotel. The jambalaya had a good flavor to it. The chicken was a rough chop so you got small pieces and large pieces which was nice. Some of the rice was a bit dry and crunchy but over all it was good. The potato salad was good but I think the potatoes were a bit over cooked and make the salad taste like mashed potatoes. I could not see the sweet relish or taste the crunch but I know it was in there, the potato salad had a sweet taste to it. I like it better than mustard based ones. The cornbread was on point, only missed some butter. It was sweet and good consistency. The banana pudding was better the next day after I throw it on the fridge. Not sure if the short drive made it warm up or if their fridge was not working too well. It did need a little more fresh banana chunks for my liking but it was good over all. This location is recommended.

She fills her plates with so much love and tells you about all the love of her family in the portraits on the walls. She immediately made my wife and I feel as if we were like long time friends and/or family. I could barely talk during my meal because I was completely smitten by each delectable bite. I plan on coming back each and every time I am in Baton Rouge. This is 100% a place that you should go to and go often; a must do in Baton Rouge! We ordered the Mama's breakfast and everything was cooked to perfection. Outside of my own kitchen, I have not had someone cook me an over medium egg that was better. I know it's a small thing but the potatoes were the best part of the meal for me. They were crispy on one side and soft on the other providing a sensational delight that was seasoned just right!

One afternoon, I was passing by this place, but I didn't have time to stop in and check it out. A day or two later, I went online and began to look up reviews. The reviews that I found were mixed, which sort of surprised me, because the things I had heard from a couple of my fellow local residence, were not very positive to say the least. But we kind of thought maybe that was due to the fact that the restaurant was fairly new, and I wanted to give them the benefit of the doubt, as I always like to support local businesses. A few days later, I passed by the restaurant around 5:30 to 6, which should have been peak dinner hour. I was the only one in the restaurant. They do not have any signage showing their restaurant items, nor do they have any standard restaurant menu's. There was a middle aged gentleman, sitting at one of the tables, looking at his phone, and I realized he was probably the owner, or at least one of the owners. He looked like he did not even want to get up to serve me. I decided then and there I was not going to order, but I did want to check things out. I asked him about menus and he said all he had was two paper printed menu items, without the prices, taped down to the countertop! Once again, no prices were listed! On items that were unavailable, having been either sold out, or never even cooked that particular day, there was actually a black mark through that item. I asked him if he had a copy of the menu that he could give me and a couple of extras for some neighbors. I was going to ask him if he had one that included the prices, but before I could say anything, he rudely said that they don't have any copies. I was going to ask him if I could take a photo of the items, but then I figured what good would that do? If the prices were not even listed, and the same items were not available each day. Also, I have been at restaurants where I have asked for a takeout menu, and they said they didn't have one, but would be glad to either print one out, or make a copy to give me. But I have never been at a restaurant that did not include any prices! I actually think this is the first time I have ever done a review on a restaurant without having actually eaten at the restaurant. But I felt strongly that people needed to be warned before they make a drive unnecessarily. I thought that the fact that there were no customers at a time that should have been peak dinner hours, should have been a red flag to begin with.
