    Food was amazing! Ordered the lamb chops with Alfredo and it was delicious. Portion size was feasible for the cost. Will definitely revisit.

    SouthPaw Soul Kitchen - Pork chops with cabbage and Mac n cheese

    Bought a Fox 59 Be Our Guest Voucher so I decided to try this place out and it did not disappoint…read more I would classify it as a carry out restaurant. Although there are a couple of booths and some stools they are mostly used by people waiting on their order.I went on a Sunday when the deal is a meat and 2 sides for 15.99. Great price for the portions of food. I decided to try the catfish, perch, mashed potatoes, mac n cheese, green beans, and greens. All the food was seasoned well. My favorites were the perch, mashed potatoes, greens and cornbread. I was so eager to eat the food i didn't take a picture. I will take one next time as I will definitely be back for another visit. Note: only 1 voucher may be used per visit

This is a decent soul food spot in the vicinity of the Indiana State Fair. There is a small dining area with a few booths and a television to watch while you wait. You will find some chairs along the wall to sit while you wait for your to-go order. The floor is the restaurant could have benefitted from a good mopping. The restaurant in general looked a bit older and worn. The guy working the resturant during my visit was friendly enough, but my interaction with him was limited though. They recommend calling ahead before you come to place your order to save some time. The food is made fresh, so it takes a good 15 to 20 minutes to prepare. So, a call ahead would definitely save time. They have a daily with wings, fish, shrimp, burgers, po-boys and pork chops along with rotating daily specials that include salmon patties. You can choose from various sides inclduing rice, potatoes, cabbage, greens, green beans, mashed potatoes, and mac & cheese. There is also a nice Soulful Sunday menu that is worth checking out. I got the fried catfish platter with a side of potatoes and cabbage. It took about 15 minutes to be prepared. I got it to-go and took it home to eat. It was not the best soul food that I had, but it was good. It was a lot of food. I really liked the cabbage, and after I added some salt, the potatoes were pretty good. the catfish was decent but I felt was missing some seasoning. That is just my personal opinion though.

    Random Wednesday carry-out dinner. Jerk wings- smelled…read moredelicious. Amazing color. Excellent spice level (hot!) Jamaican Beef patties- yummy! Spicy. Very fine beef filling and delicious pastry. Mac n cheese- amazing! Zesty and creamy. Perfect with the green beans! Green beans- so smoky and tender. Pairs perfect with the Mac n cheese! Gumbo Greens- I was so excited, but I didn't really like it. Too much filé or herby for me. Gave it a weird taste. But it was thick with meat and rice and greens! It ain't cheap. And it's really good. We will definitely try more things!

    To be honest, I had been wanting to give this place another try because the first time I visited,…read morethe main entrée -- the oxtails -- was extremely salty. I finally made it back today around 8:45 p.m. I knew the restaurant closed at 10 p.m., so I made sure not to come at the last minute. I ordered and paid for my food at 9:06 p.m. My concern is that I was told my order would be ready in about 10-30 minutes, but I did not receive my food until 10:06 p.m. I remained patient and respectful the entire time, but there was no apology for the delay. Then, after getting home, I found the food once again overly salty to the point that it was difficult to enjoy. For the price paid, I expected better quality and customer service. I truly want to support Black-owned businesses, which is why I came back and gave the restaurant another opportunity. However, consistency, professionalism, and consideration for customers should remain the standard for everyone at all times. I hope this feedback is taken constructively, because there is definitely room for improvement in both service and food preparation.

    For the life of me I cannot understand why this INCREDIBLE place gets only 3 stars!! I couldn't…read moredecide and ordered WAY more than any one person should ever order on their own LOL I got the fried catfish plate (with fries and coleslaw), the veggie plate (comes with three sides, I got dressing, mashed potatoes, and mac and cheese), cornbread, and the cucumber tomato salad. THAT CATFISH BABY! It was fried to absolute perfection. The crunch was absolutely perfect, the flavor was spot on, and the fish was so tender and perfectly cooked! The salad was stunning. The cukes had been sitting in the liquid for so long that they were translucent and it was incredible! I'm super picky about cornbread because it's usually so dry, but this was delicious! Could even get a bit of sweetness in there. Yum! When it comes to the sides: Mac and cheese was decent, not the greatest, not the worst, more middle of the road. Mashed potatoes were basic, dressing was ok but the texture did a number on me. Id get the mac and the potatoes again, but not the dressing. I don't usually like coleslaw, and this coleslaw wasn't bad! Overall, I'll be back!

The cabbage had at least a pound of sugar. Who puts sugar in cabbage? The whole kernel corn has at least a pound of sugar added. Corn is already sweet. It doesn't need added sugar. I will never go there again.

    The fooooood?! My goodness. ‍ Kountry Kitchen did NOT disappoint!…read more-- First of all, come hungry because the portions are giving "we're going to make sure you're FED." And judging by how little we left on these plates...that mission was accomplished. -- I went with the combo meal with fried chicken wings AND fried catfish, with fried okra and cabbage on the side -- and whew! -- DELICIOUSSSSS. The chicken was crispy and seasoned, the catfish had that perfect golden coating, and the sides tasted like somebody in the kitchen actually cares about you. The okra especially? I could've easily ordered another serving. -- We also tried the oxtails, and one thing I'll mention: if you're used to Caribbean-style oxtails, these are definitely different. Don't go in expecting the same flavor profile. BUT they were still incredibly tender, moist, flavorful, and practically falling apart. Paired with the sides and that cornbread?! -- And the experience goes beyond the food! The building itself is SO cute, and I loved seeing the murals featuring famous people from the area and notable people who have visited. It gives the restaurant so much personality and makes it feel like you're stepping into a little piece of local history while getting a plate of good ol' comfort food. -- Final verdict: Come hungry. Wear something with a little stretch. And don't expect to leave much on the plate. -- Kountry Kitchen, you have a fan over here! 10/10 would absolutely run this meal back.

    We came for lunch on a Thursday. Their dining area is a little tight and it was filled with people…read moreso service was a little slow but we had enough time to relax and enjoy the wait. I ordered the hot honey fried chicken dish with yams and collard greens. It was so good and delicious. It's a big portion so I was well pleased with what I received.
