    Lillie Bell's located in Heritage Plaza
    Yolande M.

    Lillie Bell's have moved from Southfield to 14365 Telegraph Rd in Redford. They celebrated their Grand Opening May 4th. This is a black owned, long standing business. They are now located in the Heritage Plaza next door to Skylar Laundromat. The new location is very spacious for both the staff and customers. They now have a dine-in option with two pub tables and four combo seating of table chairs and window sill cushions. The food is still cooked and served with love! I had the Gotta Have Soul - 4 Fried Catfish Strips with Mac & Cheese and Green Beans with Potatoes. I love that over the area where food comes from the kitchen reads: "Lord, we pray that you bless this food and everyone who partakes of it. We pray that you bless them in the way which will benefit them the most." I receive that blessing! I ordered my meal takeout! It was so tasty! I was able to divide my meal for lunch for two days! They have three lines inside: 1) Order Here, 2) Pickup Here and for those short on time, 3) Whatcha Got Ready Right Now? They participate with DoorDash for delivery options. They also offer catering services. Note: They are still closed on Mondays and open on Sundays at 1pm now!

    This is my third time trying Lillie Bells and second at the new location. The one thing that has been consistent is the pleasant staff. The young lady working greeted me when I came in the door, offered a menu and suggestions. Kept cash on me and tipped in the tip jar today. Now to the food. I'm disappointed. I wanted to think I had one of visits due to grand opening. The rib tips were not tender. Better than they were when I tried in Southfield, but not enough that I could eat it without chewing at least 10-20 times. I wouldn't recommend. The catfish was fried decently, but lacked flavor of any kind besides the breading. Like you'd have to eat it with the sides in one bite to enjoy. Greens with smoked turkey were the star of the meal. The macaroni was mid at best and greasy. Not seasoned much. I ordered the A Lil Sumthin lunches to try different food. It was a waste of $20. I have more than 1/2 of the food not eaten and likely won't. It's a good option if you find something you like and short on funds during the lunch time. However, I have no interest in a 4th try. My order was also wrong. It was a slow lunch today so I don't know how yams and macaroni can be confused. Luckily I checked the bag. Small space to sit and eat inside, but most do carry out. I hope they figure it out because the business has potential because there is not a real soul food spot in the area.

    Excellent food and customer service today was my husband and I first time trying this place. Usually we go to Mookies, but we wanted to try another soul food restaurant. We were both impressed!! The atmosphere was chill and customers weren't rude to each other. Will be going again

    Smoked Turkey Greens, and Candied Yams better than your Mommas

    I had a chance to taste this today, and the food was unbelievable. The smoked turkey greens were full of smokey turkey just the way I like it. Do yourself and your family a favor and treat them to this Awesome Diamond.

    finally got to try this spot and I was super excited but the food was very underwhelming. The lamb chops were good, they're the normal Detroit flavor with zip sauce. No worries there. It was the sides that threw me off. The lack of seasoning was surprising in both the mac and spaghetti. Probably wouldn't come back because I would want the same sides.

    Awesome service Friendly staff Great selection Definitely recommend giving them a try

    What can I say, I enjoyed everything. Smothered pork chops....wow. Collard greens, mac n cheez, baked beans, candied yams all made me forget it was the middle of the week and not Soul Food Sunday! I can't speak to another persons experience. I'm just telling you about my experience. Ordered carry out/delivery. i can't speak to the location or staff. Im satisfied with the results. I admit it is a little pricey but it was worth it for this meal this time. Gotta save some more money so I can go back.

    Wanting a comforting Seafood dish this Sunday. I chose this restaurant while perusing doordash for something yummy. I found it under the Black business tab. I ordered the New Orleans potato with Cajun shrimp. I was not disappointed. The potatoes are huge. Mine was cook superfection. The large shrimp were seasoned well, with just the right amount of Cajun spices. I also ordered the strawberry banana pudding. I was a decent treat. The fresh strawberries are a great addition. The price point is not for the faint. The potato alone is $19. The Rachael Ray in me could eat carryout/delivery twice at that price point. I didn't mind spending a bit more than I think it's truly worth because this meal was a Valentine's Day treat for myself.

    Lillie Bell's Macaroni and cheese

    I entered the store from the rear parking door. There is a small area in the back of the store. This is Lillie Bell's area. The staff were pleasant and greeted me quickly. My online order was there waiting; piping hot. I order the fried chicken wing dinner with macaroni and cheese and greens. I added a side of small potato salad and sweet potato to make the meal enough for two people. Surprising, the potato salad was good the macaroni and cheese was very good; not overly seasoned. The fried chicken (per my bff) was "off the chain" lol. The collard greens were a bit bitter for my taste. The sweet potatoes had a weird taste to them, almost as if they used a chemical sweetener of some sort. I couldn't tolerate the taste. My bff thought the same but said "they're cooked good." She added more cinnamon to hide the taste. The polite and prompt customer service and the amazing taste of the macaroni and cheese were enough to carry this review to four stars. The bitter greens and the weird taste of the sweet potatoes should be an easy fix. Im sure its a simple quality control issue. I would definitely order from this carry out restaurant again without hesitation. I recommend everyone to try their macaroni and cheese. They use real cheese and it's definitely made with love.

    The food is amazing. The price is great. It's better than motor city. I have great lamb chops and smothered pork chops are awesome.

    The food was seasoned to perfection. Most soul food places the food is salty, not this. Try it, I'll bet you won't be disappointed.

    The food has not been as good as the years prior. I was invited to lunch and I was quickly reminded…read morewhy I stopped going here. The bar was filled with people waiting for to go orders that took almost an hour to fulfill. The people dining in were waiting for 30+minutes, including myself, as a table of two. When people were questioning and complaining (not us), they were reassured the food was in progress and they did not know the hold up. Lack of ownership throughout the entire dining experience. They did not serve me sweet potato muffins, for what is now my fourth visit in a row. They ultimately took it off the check-- obviously. But for the fourth time now, I have not received these so called muffins I'm unsure even exist. XD. the ambiance was chill and I love the set up, there is just no room for overflow. So, people quickly start to pile up, even next to the tables people are actively dining at. I will likely not join the next outing I am invited to here. Good luck, Cornbread.

    Cornbread Restaurant & Bar never disappoints. We had a great Sunday dinner with a short wait time…read morefor our table. Our table recognized News Reporter Al Allen RIP. The staff was exceptional! Besides CiCi our awesome server, two other employees came by our table to check on us to make sure everything was great! The restaurant has multiple seating options. I look forward to dining outside when the weather breaks!
