Service: 10/10 - The ladies here are welcoming, open to give recommendations, and brought our order to us at the counter Ambience: 7/10 - it is definitely a small "mom and pop" restaurant but WORTH IT! We came on a weekday around 4pm so there was no wait. Food was fresh and made to order. This place ranks within the TOP 3 restaurants to try in New Orleans! Take a few minutes outside the French Quarter and enjoy a gem!!!

Ayo, the food here slaps! I recommend the grits and cat fish…read more The Mac and cheese was OKAY, nothing to run to. I wish the noodles were a little softer or had more of a crust. Seating is tight and inside is not very equipped with a/c during the heat. More of a grab and go spot, IMO!

I'm so disappointed! We needed food to nurse our hangovers we had, and this food was horrible! 1st…read moreoff, I wanted oxtails, and they didn't have those. So I got the smothered pork chops, which were paper thin and dry as hell and not smothered! Then my sides were yams, greens, and white rice. Came with Mac n cheese, too. I literally had 3 squares of yams. My guy had 2 squares, YES, we counted!!!!! They gave him a fat bone filled ham hock with no meat or gristle or nothing and scrimped on the can greens they served us. The Mac was orange with no seasoning. The pork chops weren't fried. I assume they baked those they were like eating a plastic paper plate. The best part of the meal was the white rice. I also forgot he had fried cat filets, and he said they were good. Of course, I'm never going back. Smh

While visiting NOLA for my anniversary, my wife wanted soul food in NOLA so I searched Yelp and…read morefound this place. There's not many soul food places in NOLA to my surprise. When you walk in you're greeted and told to get a menu and place your order at the counter. They will bring your food to your table. You pick any available table. That seems to be a thing in NOLA. The place plays contemporary jazz in the background so nice ambiance. They also have TV screens playing sports. I ordered the fried chicken, cabbage and jambalaya. Everything is WELL seasoned! I love seasoned food but this was too much for me. If it was a bit less seasoned I would have enjoyed it more. My wife got the shrimp platter with corn and mac & cheese. She felt her food was good and seasoned well. She wants to go back for lunch. To be fair I'm not a soul food person. It's not my first choice of food since I ate a lot of this food at church.

Yes! It was yummy…read more We had the fried chicken and rib plates. We also tried almost all their sides. The mac n cheese so yummy and just the right amount of cheese. It was one of the most yummiest mac n cheese, I've tried. We also had the greens that were also yummy but a little salty for my taste, still I would return just to eat those. The corn bread was amazing, I was so happy with the texture, as it was not dry. My husband highly enjoyed the mashed sweet potato, they were his favorite as he enjoys sweets. The fried chicken left me wanting more, however, the ribs were not my favorite although they were tender, and had a good tangy flavor. I should have taken a picture of our plates because there was no leftovers. We had lemonade and the sweetest of teas. Honestly I highly enjoyed our meals The service was amazing, and super friendly. I also took an amazing peach bread pudding to go. The restaurant was golden and welcoming, they even asked if we wanted our table candle lit. Thank you to the ladies at Susie's. It was great.

The red beans and rice are a must, the fried chicken was perfectly crispy and seasoned, and the gumbo had just the right amount of kick. The staff is wonderful too Pro tip: if you're from out of town, ask them how to say pecans and Xavier University it's a fun local inside joke. Great food, great people, highly recommend.

Well, hubby wanted me soul food, and found this joint. It use to be cellular booster place (from…read morethe exterior sign). It had great reviews, so we stopped to grab him a plate. . They were flowing in when we arrived. The line was long, but the wait wasn't too bad. People were nice and friendly. . Food: Ok, the food... I know Mac & cheese and that wasn't it. It was spaghetti with cheese. I don't know why places call "spaghetti" ... macaroni - it's two different things. Anyways.. Hubby said it wasn't what he was expecting m, but it was just "ok". The chicken-he even chewed up the bones for the last taste he could get. He loved them!! He said he should have just got a plate of wings. The potato salad ' green sweet peas, we were not allowed to change from their daily special.. . Oh well - wasted food. He did taste them and absolutely nothing special about them. Now that cornbread muffin! Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes! We did take a u-turn, to go back for another one. Those little suckers melt in your mouth-my goodness. . Overall it was a solid 4.5 experience. Yes, will go back!

The food here is on point. This is where the locals eat for sure. The seafood bell pepper is my…read morefavorite item and is a must try along with the smoked sausage poboy. The bell pepper has shrimp and ground beef in it and taste just like the ones I ate as a kid. Catfish is a must also. Their sides are just ok but still descent. However, I must say that the candied yams are good. This place is a gas station with the food counter in the back of the store. It is a grab and go type place. Parking is limited so you may have to wait until someone moves to park. There are many drink options to choose from like big shot, Fargo, Arizona tea ect. Service is fairly quick but you need to know what you want before you get to the counter because the line moves quickly. Prices get are very reasonable and you get a lot of good for the money. Definitely a must try spot.

In the back of the store, is a deli where they sell soul food and good eats. Once we arrived they were out of all the items I was interested in getting so instead I ordered a 3 piece catfish and a good cold drank. Fish was amazing, fresh crispy, seasoned and well priced. I paid a total of $7 for the fish and two drinks. Service was fast and quick. Ordering area was busy so be sure to come early if you don't want all your selections gone. I'll definitely return for breakfast and snag some grits!
