Celebrated my birthday here with Family and friends and turns out so did like 7 other groups! It…read morewas a fun time to be had by all. Vibing old school music and happy crowd. Food was good. I enjoy my food when I actually taste the food and not the salt so I loved it. Others complained not salty/seasoned enough but it was perfect to me. Chicken had the right amount of crunch and tenderness. The salmon was meaty (not fatty) and seasoned just right. I had the bbq salmon and it was delicioso! The Mac n cheese was a good blend of cheeses and 'cheesy' pull was excellent. Potato salad just right. The service was top notch despite the place being sold out and very busy!! Definitely will return, hopefully on a less busy day and time. Parking could be an issue but we lucked up and got a spot a block away.

Overall, I had a great experience. I visited for Sunday brunch and was impressed by the variety of…read moreoptions on the menu. The food was flavorful and well-prepared, although some dishes leaned a bit salty for my taste. I ordered the sautéed shrimp and grits. The shrimp were delicious, but I wish the dish came with a larger portion of grits. The gravy was very generous and ended up making the dish a bit soupy, so a little more grits would have helped balance the dish. Other highlights from our table included the fried shrimp and waffles, yams, and mac and cheese, all of which were excellent. Another guest in my party ordered the BBQ salmon and thoroughly enjoyed it as well. The ambiance is casual, comfortable, and inviting, making it a great spot for either a local brunch or a relaxed dinner. The service was attentive and pleasant throughout our visit. We were even greeted by the owner upon arrival, and his friendliness and hospitality immediately made us feel welcome and set a positive tone for the entire experience. Overall, this is a solid neighborhood restaurant with good food, a welcoming atmosphere, and excellent customer service. I'd definitely return to try more items from the menu.

The max and cheese is delicious and the yams are drenched with cinnamon which I love. The corn bread is soft and dense and just perfect. I would recommend this place to anyone who is looking for a good home cooked meal.

But if you go around 12/1 PM you're guaranteed to get what you want from the menu for that day. The staff is very friendly, especially Mr. Vince and they are priced really well! The most I've paid for a meal is $7, but of course that can go up or down depending on how much you order. I highly recommend the fried chicken here. Very moist, seasoned, crispy and far from oily! The veggies are typically seasonal. Spinach here is pretty great though. Other items you can find here are meatloaf, mac and cheese, hot wings, and various rice. For me it's conveniently located, and has become sort of my go to place. They also provide catering services. Highly recommended!

There were only 2 people working when we walked in & a 3rd person walked in he greeted us with a smile & he was nice. We ordered fried fish oxtail Mac & cheese and lobster/shrimp Mac & cheese. The fish was good but not crispy like I would have liked. The Mac & cheeses were a disappointment. It wasn't Mac & cheese it was more oxtail macaroni NO cheese. I'm sure because of the consistency cheese was in there somewhere but it wasn't the Mac & cheese u would think u were about to eat. I didn't care for it. The lobster/shrimp was not good at all it seemed all the seasoning was on the top so we mixed it up to make sure & it got worse it was super salty shrimps were too small it just wasn't what we expected.

They offer samples on any and everything. This may have been my 4th time eating from here. The food I've had in the past was good. This time the food wasn't as great but it was still decent. The greens were salty and the Mac was bland (the candy yam juice on top made it better). But it was still edible.

This restaurant identifies as Black-Owned . There is no parking and it seems to be causing congestion as there are people double parking to pick up orders .

As soon as you walk in, you can smell the amazing dishes and you can literally feel the love they put on each plate as they serve the guests. I almost don't want to share this review for fear that the line may get longer but this restaurant is now one of the few that I recommend you go out of your way to try and enjoy. Their menu is classically simple but made with an abundance of care and no shortcuts in their cooking. As you are seated you are welcome to place your order in the front of the glass display, they cook everything in house and sometimes they run out of the specials so don't sleep on getting there on time. We ended up getting their lunch specials and picked one main and two sides. I know my girl loves Ox Tails and ended up getting the last plate with some candied yams and Mac and cheese. Let me tell you, we cleaned the plate and it was finger licking good!!! The jerk ribs were amazingly tender and fall off the bone. All of the sides were well portioned and absolutely flawless. Don't come here if you're on a diet there is only one way to enjoy this restaurant and it's to just dive in. FYI - you will need a nap after your meal. This place just hits your tastebuds differently; it doesn't just leave an impression, its mind shattering good. You will sing after the meal - happy dancing the whole time as you're eating.

I wanted to love it so much especially since TikTok critic/MMA fighter Keith Lee visited them in 2023, but my experience was not like his. I want to say that online reviews are almost about accurate. They were out of cold salads and collard greens which was an issue for other customers at times as well. No problem, they were super helpful and offered an alternative but not a good one. I had steamed vegetables that mashed in my mouth like mashed potatoes when I took a bite. I did end up going to another spot for collard greens and potato salad because you can't have soul-food without that. I had the rib dinner with mac n cheese and yams and a tiny piece of complimentary cornbread. The ribs definitely taste amazing but they don't take off the membrane in the back which is slimy and gross. I left that part behind. The yams were sweet and good BUT.....that mac n cheese is NOT soul-food Mac n cheese. Here's the thing I figured out, they use such little cheese but season the noodles very well that you don't truly notice unless you love mac n cheese, which I do, so I noticed it lacked so much cheese but had seasoned noodles. The rib dinner was a 3/5 because ribs were great but sides needed help. I had rice and peas as an additional side and fried wings. The wings were ATROCIOUS! I ate the smallest one and didn't eat the rest. How can you serve such huge feathered wings like that? It was a nightmare. The feathers being on it turned me off. This tells me they don't make their food with care, they move quick to be one and done and I want my food cooked with love and care. They were also frozen wings that were thawed and seasoned, I know the difference. The rice and peas were okay 3/5 as well. Overall the food was not worth the hype. Customer service was beautiful for sure but the food was not it.
