Food as always was great and great customer service when calling to inquire about menu.

Excellent. I sat at the bar for a lovely breakfast of decent smothered liver, eggs and toast with a cup of coffee. The customer service ladies at the counter were fab. I felt at home. read more

I ordered the smothered chicken and it was absolutely terrible. Dried out, tough, and clearly not made fresh today. When I tried to send it back, they flat-out refused to take it. Horrible service and even worse food. Don't waste your money here--look at this picture and see for yourself. read more

Go to the Overtown location. My food was brick when I got it... not pleased at all. To have sign stating that the food is cook to your best standard and receive it cold because it's been sitting out..Unacceptable! read more

Didn't know there was a Jackson Soul Food restaurant on the north end of Miami. I Yelp soul food breakfast and Jackson came up, so off I went to buy my mom and her husband breakfast. I ordered at tge counter to go; salmon and grits for her and sausage, eggs and grits for him. Took about 20 mins. Rushed it home to my mom who's about 10 mins away. First bite of the salmon, lawd....have mercy! Mom damn near spit the salmon across her dining room table! Salmon is absolutely terrible! I tasted it and yeah... I strongly validate my mom's sentiments. Everything else was pretty tasty! Saturday 8.27.22 9am read more

I love Jackson soul food! They cook like your mom/grandmothers on Sunday mornings before church lol but it's an authentic African-American breakfast spot. If you want a real taste of miami then either Jackson's(overtown/opa-Locka locations) should be an essential part of your plan. The service is always welcoming like an older aunt. Sometimes there's a little bit of a wait but it's definitely worth it. I would recommend Jackson's to anyone visiting the inner city of miami and doesn't want to only stay on the beach. read more

Ordered here on yesterday, Friday June 25th. This isn't my first time eating at Jackson, but first time at this location. I requested that my fish be fried hard and it was. The seasoning was great on the fish. I didn't like the grits at all. My husband had sausage, eggs and grits. He didn't eat much of his grits, but he liked the eggs and sausage. We maybe back at this location. read more

I have been trying to get into this spot for a few months. I always seem to try and get in when the parking lot is packed. A packed parking lot is a great sign. Food has got to be good. I went early today and secured my spot and my plate! No disappointment to be found. Small diner type vibe. Folks coming and going for to-go orders. I loved the obvious regulars chit-chatting with the staff. Hilarious! Ordered the salmon croquettes, grits, scrambled egg whites with toast and a side of onions & peppers and a coffee. Delicious! I did not need to season anything. Usually, grits need a lil something. Not these. Croquettes were meaty and full of peppers. So very good. I was entirely pleased with my meal and will be up early again to secure my spot. read more

Jackson Soul Food II - Salmon Croquettes Breakfast - Soul Food Near Me - Opa-locka, Florida

The worst service ever. To start we never got all the food we order. It took 10 minutes to get the drinks we order from the time we sat down. She never once came to check on our table. The whole staff just lost. read more

In the mood for soul food. I let Google guide me. This was a food adventure for us. I recommend to do research before doing this because of the location. The neighborhood is not so good The food tasted good. The customer service was decent but very funny and entertaining. The food came out before the drinks. We finished our meal and they brought the toast and biscuits with the check lol. The biscuits where really good. The waitress was really funny. I ordered the creamy shrimp and grits. It was good. The sauce was incredible delicious. Wow it was good. It had caramelize onions and peppers. The shrimp was a good size and they tasted good. I would order this again. My friend had the catfish. I tasted it. It was good. It was cooked well, not dry. It was a good portion size. They know how to cook good catfish here. The place has plenty of parking spaces. It is a building easy to spot. It is casual and friendly. read more

Disappointed. I read reviews and was excited to eat here, but was disappointed from the start. The place is very cute and clean and small. It was a Sunday and very busy. It took approximately 10 minutes for a server to come to table and about 30 minutes total for the food and coffee to arrive. Was expecting food to be so delicious, but I found it to be very very bland . I had to add salt, pepper and butter to the entire plate. read more

Jackson Soul Food II - Salmon Croquettes Breakfast - Soul Food Near Me - Opa-locka, Florida

Food was bland. A family member recommended this place. This location only serves breakfast. We order salmon croquettes, fried fish with grits and scrambled eggs and shrimp & grits. The fried fish was good, but grits and eggs were very bland. The faux butter spread given for the grits was bad, Even after adding it along with salt and pepper. The biscuits were bland and doughy. The salmon croquettes were mixed with too much flour. We were starving and ate half of it. The presentation was good, but no flavor. read more

Very polite, lovely staff with excellent service and food. The Ambiance is awesome love this place breakfast is top tier.

Never disappoint. Get there early. Fried Chicken Wings Salmon cakes Grilled Tilapia Grits & Eggs Happy, not over seasoned. read more

Great mom & pop shop that serves breakfast the way nana makes it. Every time I'm in Miami I stop here to eat at least twice. The service is good and the place is very clean. Parking can sometimes be a challenge but if the parking lot is full that should tell you all you need to know. read more

Jackson's is your typical soul food. I prefer their breakfast. Don't go in a hurry and don't go hungry. Patience is a virtue because there will be a wait read more

I had the salmon croquette breakfast..... never again. The best thing about my plate was that the eggs were fresh & hot.

The food is always good here, however, today I GOT PLAYED FOR A FEW DOLLARS! At around 7:20am, I came into the restaurant and ordered a grilled chicken breakfast platter to go. This was listed at $10.95. I should have figured that something was up when I wasn't directly sent to the register. As i sit and wait for my order to come up, I notice the lady who came to pick up her order after me, sprinted to the ATM and came back to the counter. I thought nothing of it until I hear "broken" in the woman and counterperson's conversation. I asked the counterperson if I had to pay with cash. She said yes pointing to the ATM in the corner. I withdrew $20 with a $3 access fee. Wow! I ordered a "flop" when I returned. I saw that it was about $2.50. As my order came back, the counter person told me that she would come back with my total. She went to the back of the restaurant for a moment and returned with a notepad and calculator. With a few taps of the total came up to %18.65. I don't understand that math. With a 10.95 order and medium drink $2.50, the total should be around $16.55 with %6 salad tax. I asked the lady why wasn't the flop on the house since it was around the same amount of money spent ad the fee I didn't plan on paying for at the ATM. Her response was that the ATM isn't their property and she didn't know the fee was that high. At this point, I guess that I could have called for a manager, or asked for a full refund, look for my bank near by, looked for a no fee ATM near by, or cancled my ordered in the first place. But I was so hungry, and so close to my office that I didn't want to be late dealing with this situation. So I left with the food.... Many could say it is just 3 dollars, what does it matter? Well if $3 dollars didn't matter, then why was the flop not on the house? If I were the employee, I would have given the drink for free since she was fully aware that the system was down and that I would need cash. If I had not seen the lady behind me go to the ATM I would have never known. I should have been told this before I even ordered, otherwise I wouldn't have been coerced into using the ATM. I feel as if I were played like a fool in this situation. No freebies could be restaurant policy, but atleast I would have been put in the loop to make the best decisions for me. The 2 stars is for the food. The counter staff lacks good customer service and math skills. I really feel like I was not even a consideration at that moment. Let's just take his money while we get the registers back online. They lost 3 stars for that. Why not just close the doors until the problem is fixed? read more

Let's start with the food we ordered all to go, to take home to the family, Catfish, Jackson Red Shrimp, Smothered Pork Chips, Sides range from Okra & Tomato's, Lima Beans, Collard Greens, Black eye peas, green beans, potato salad and Corn Bread, All I can say was wow it was all very good. Service was good & friendly. The sad part is that I have been to this area of Opa Locka, for many years & know it to be high crime area, with several car jacking at the nearby gas stations & murders in the area & today was no exception, were a man was shot in the face & killed just down the same Main Street, of 27th ave blocks away at the RT Money Tree Pawn Shop & Carwash parking lot. read more

Catfish, meatloaf, smothered pork chops with onions, fried chicken were the meat choices for our table. The catfish was fried crispy. The meatloaf was juicy & flavorful The smothered pork chops covered in homemade gravy were tender Sides of choice: Greens, Mac & Cheese, yams, & dressing. My only gripe was the dressing was supposed to be cornbread dressing & it was stuffing. But I would definitely recommend this place & would visit again. Tiara (our server) was everything! read more

I ordered breakfast to go. The hours of operation weren't listed and I was five minutes early, but they let me in. The waitresses were very polite. I ordered and my food was ready in under 15 minutes. I had fried fish (whole yellowtail), grits, eggs, and biscuits. Everything was really good, but the fish could been battered better and crispier which is why I only gave them 4 stars. read more

The WORST customer service I've ever experienced in my life. It's so hard to support black businesses when professionalism and customer service is horrible. Called to order my food at 10:35am, just one simple meal. At 11:46am I was still waiting for someone to even acknowledge that I was a customer waiting to be serviced. HORRIBLE! Get it together my god. read more

You have to try the shrimp and grits ( if you are a fan ) ! Pretty darn good and I have ordered from many different restaurants. I would say Jackson's has the second best I've had. The staff seem to be very nice and polite from the few times I've been there. The only thing I didn't love is that it was very loud inside the restaurant for Me so if you want goooood soul food you are in business. If you are looking for a little peace or a hideout spot for a Little break from work ; eh read more

Best soul food for the dollar. Chicken too greasy, but damn was it good! Loved the collards. Check it out.

Where do I start, Jackson's is a very small mama and pop diner. I always get the smother liver with onions . They have the best liver in town. It is always season to perfection. It is a bit pricey, 9.09 and cents but so worth it. It can get crowed so you have to be patient, but the food is always good so its worth it the wait. read more

Phenomenal. This is as real as a diner can be. The breakfast is aces. I highly recommend this gem.

Great food and friendly service! Wasn't a big fan of grits until I came here! Loved their Mac and cheese and the tilapia was full of flavor read more
