Rather…read morethan bored anyone with how great everything tastes (Like, better than you'd ever expect kind of great!), I'll just compliment the great staff who never disappoint with their friendly, kind and generous performance. One lovely lady who gave me such service was April. She seemed very proud of her employment and personally volunteered her assistance with a sloppy mess I created. She, as with the others who welcomed me as if a regular, are only complimented by the delicious food Nana's offers. Thank you all; see you next time I'm in town!

Food, staff, and ambiance were all excellent. Highly recommend! Everything we tried was superb.read more

It was right across the street. 5 people were in line despite a chilly night. A Good sign. The menu was promising as well as the people running the show. A friendly welcoming atmosphere was the start of the Soul! The wait was 8 minutes with, like I said, a crowd in front of us. Friendly chatter ensued. The pork chop was coming out of the frier and I mentioned how amazing it looked. Tony threw in a 'too small to sell' freebee pork chop. 2 words... IT SLAAAAPED! Left no crumbs. Got some honey bbq wings. Mac and cheese. Green beans. Fried okra. All very delish! I only hope I take a trip back up to Soul Food Island. Thank you Tony and Tammy.

I have had the giant turkey hut on my list of places to hit in Charlotte since I found out they…read moreopened a location here late last year. I first experienced this stuffed turkey leg trend in Dallas a couple of years ago as part of their pop-up. The line we sat in to get turkey legs that morning was more than 2 miles long and took over an hour and a half to get through. So I was pretty stoked when I found out that there was a location here in Charlotte. We visited on a Saturday afternoon around 5 PM And initially passed the location and had to U-turn and go back. Just make sure you keep an eye out for the building as I initially thought it was an auto repair shop, but that is actually a business that shares the same parking lot. When we first pulled up, there was a bit of commotion as there seemed to be a person having a bit of a mental health episode, walking around erratically outside. However, the owner was actually sitting outside and immediately greeted us when we pulled up and welcomed us in. This is a very small location and sparsely decorated on the outside, but did have much better aesthetics in the interior. The menu is very straightforward with several options, including the turkey legs, turkey wings, salmon and chicken entrées. Both owners were very friendly and helpful as I made my decision on what to order and the food was ready in about 10 minutes. The legs are a little on the pricey side at $25 a pop but the portion size is definitely enough for two people. And the quality of the food is outstanding! Well seasoned, super tender, and super flavorful. I would describe this as a perfect blend between Texas soul food and Louisiana Creole. This is the kind of business I like to support because they are clearly focused on delivering great food and they are doing it right in the middle of the community. Go support them!

I also ordered a side of collard greens The bad: the collard greens were nasty. The turkey meat in the greens was dried out a flavorless. The greens also had a sweet taste to them. (Say no to sugar in greens) The Cajun rice with the hot honey sauce was delicious. I made it better with a sprinkle of pepper. The Turkey lives up to the hype. Smoked, tender, easy to pull apart....all the boxes checked.  I will have to return to try the drinks and other items.  #GratuityAdded #JiveTurkeyHut #charlottesgotalot  #supportlocal #clteats #foodiesofclt #cltfoodies #followforafollow  #exploreclt #eatdrinkclt  #NewEats  #charlottefood #leapyear #cltfood #cltfoodie  #foodie #keeppounding #charlotteeats #turkeylegs #charlottefoodscene  #cltfoodbloggers  #cltwings #charlottefoodies   #stuffit #charlotterestaurants #cltagenda

They are located in a nice little spot with ample parking and it's easy accessible. The interior is simple but clean. Plenty of seating. The ladies who work here are very friendly and helpful, came around a few times to check on me, offered fried side to go with the greens , offered a refill on my sweet tea. Great service! About the food. Probably the BEST FRIED CHICKEN in the area. I really can't judge on that because I haven't sampled other fried chicken in the vicinity but based on my own research of sampling fried chicken all over North Carolina, I feel confident in my assumption. It was fried just right. It was SEASONED. It had a very nice batter that was crunchy and the chicken in the inside was tender and juicy. Every bite was tender and juicy. These ladies should teach a cooking class on how to make fried chicken-to other restaurants. The SWEET POTATOES were perfectly cooked and flavored in butter and cinnamon. You could eat it as a dessert. But not overly sweet. Just right. The GREENS were tender and seasoned perfectly. Greens and fried side with their delicious CORNBREAD could be a meal in itself. The SWEET TEA-perfect! All around, best home cooked food/soul food you can get. I will be back and I highly recommend for true SOUTHERN COMFORT food.
