    ordered uber eats and was very impressed! All the food arrived fresh and everything tasted amazing! I tried the fried chicken, smothered pork chops, yams, collard greens and mac! The next day my mom went for pick up and loved everything as well, glad to have found this place!!

    From the time I walked in and Ms. Pam said "Welcome Home" I knew I was in the right place! You can smell the gloriousness of the food from the sidewalk. There is free off street parking and a short walk to the front door. The hardest thing is trying to decide which of their gourmet items you want to try. The fried chicken wings were perfectly seasoned. The collard greens were amazing, the oxtail was absolutely authentic. Sampling all of the sides reminded me of how good soul food is supposed to be. This place is outstanding. I won't even tell you how AMAZING the peach cobbler is. Mr Jacks Soul Food to go is a must visit when in Miami. Either the sweet tea or their signature drink "Blue Magic" ... you can't can't go wrong! You will love it!

    Was in Coral Gables and asked my riding partner what they had a taste for. Of course, they would holler out "collard greens and oxtails!". Again, Coral Gables, so I had to hop on Yelp to figure things out. Yelp said Mr. Jack's would have "collard greens and oxtails!" and was 20mins away - challenge accepted! Parked in the FREE on-street parking (so rare these days) then went to open the door. From where I stood, was greeted with two words that touched my heart and stopped me in my tracks: "Welcome home." No kidding, from that moment on, I was made to feel like a member of the Mr. Jack's family. Not to mention the aroma of soul flood foating in the air like it was a family function. Goodness! Ok, gotta skip to the food because that CORRRRRNNNN got down in my SOUL!!! It's been weeks and I can't stop thinking about it. Everything served at Mr. Jack's is made in-house, fresh for the day. The food is served from a hot table except all fried and smothered items (chicken, pork chops, fish), which are cooked to order. All plates come with a rice, two sides and cornbread. The food, though. That food??? Mr. Jack's is soul food, period!! We had the smothered pork chops (2, huge) with white rice, creamed corn and spaghetti and, of course, oxtails with white rice and double collard greens. Every single thing was delicious. At the first bite of the smothered pork chop, my head fell forward. The meat was so tender, juicy and flavorable! And the gravy?!?! Down home gravy, all the way! Immediately wished I'd also ordered the smothered chicken wings because I know they have to be as delicious! The spaghetti was very good and a hefty portion, just a little sweet for my taste. Was so glad to see it offered as a side without extra charge. Now that creamed corn?!?! OMG! It was explained to us that the corn is shucked fresh, then cooked to perfection. The flavor on that thang....!! It was just....perfect. I don't have other words to describe it. And corn is not my favorite side so I wasn't expecting much which is why it truly blew me away! I've been raving about and missing it since that day. I tasted the oxtails which were very authentic in terms of soul food - tender with a rich gravy. The collard greens tasted like someone's grandmother was back there, taking her time, stirring a big pot of 'em with love. So good! Tender but with a good bite, pot liquor that can be sipped by itself. Perfect pair with the white rice (as was that corn!). There are also plenty of sweet treats at Mr. Jack's and we tried several: banana pudding, pound cake and sweet potato pie. The sweets are extra extra sweet at Mr. Jack's so keep that in mind. It took me a whole week to eat the banana pudding - could only do a spoonful a day. LOL But it was good! And the sweet potato pie?!?! As soon as a I took a bite, had to go back and get a piece for my favorite neighbor. This is the sweet potato pie she has been describing to me and in search of for the past couple years. (Got a phone call as she was eating the piece I'd delivered to her home earlier. She confirmed it is The One!) It has such a complex flavor - nutmeg, cinnamon and something else extra special that makes it stand out from allll the other versions of sweet potato pie. C'est magnifique! Kudos to Apostle Malone, who served us like we were the most important customers ever without knowing us or anything about us. That tells me he and the team treat everyone the same. Prices are very fair for the amount of food - the bag with two plates felt like it weighed 10 pounds! I certainly ate mine over three days. The restaurant is spotless, bright and very neat. It is takeout only. Plenty of free parking on the street or in the lot. My only problem with Mr. Jack's is that it's so far away from me. Which is also a blessing because they would see me every day otherwise. Fantastic food and experience!!

    I needed some soul food and drove to Mr. Jack's. Soon as you walk in the counter and food is in front of you. I saw one table to sit down and eat. I ordered Smothered Pork Chops, Mac N Cheese, Yams & Peach Cobbler. I also ordered a drink called Blue Magic & Sweet Tea. Smothered Pork Chops were good....Mac was good...Yams were good....Peach Cobbler was good. It comes with a Cornbread Muffin and that was good. Sweet Tea was good. You gotta try the Blue Magic....it taste like kool aid with just enough sugar....and it's really good. All in all if you want some real good soul food. Swing by Mr. Jack's

    This is my 3rd time visiting Mr. Jack's Soul On The Go, and they never disappoint. From the greeting from walking into the restaurant and making you feel at home is key for me. Several options, but I went with the oxtails because I love the way they cook them. The oxtails are seasoned to perfection and falling off the bones. Their macaroni and cheese is cheesy with several cheeses used. The fried corn is one of my favorites as well and you have to pace yourself because you will eat it all at once when you bite into it. If you haven't tried them, please make your way there.

    This restaurant is beyond Legit! Nothing else needs to be said. I wanted soul food and that is exactly what I got! The food is absolutely delicious and is an absolute culinary gem that has stolen my heart and satisfied my soul. From the succulent fried chicken to the perfectly seasoned smothered pork chops and the mouthwatering collard greens, every bite was a revelation of soulful goodness. Trust me, no matter what you get, you will be happy and satisfied. I ordered from them twice this week from doordash. Both times the food over preformed and exceeded my expectations. I had to personally call the restaurant myself to praise them for their amazingly delicious food. This restaurant is simply amazing, earning it a well-deserved 5-star rating.

    Mr. Jack's Soul Food is hands down the best soul food I've had in a long time. The food was so good my husband fell into a deep open-mouth sleep afterward. Mr. Jack had us try their short ribs and they were unbelievably tender and sooo tasty. even the fat was tasty, the smothered fried chicken, mac and cheese, the baked spaghetti and mashed potatoes were all delicious, it was truly *chefs kiss*, and the homemade desserts--especially the sweet potato pie and 5-flavored pound cake--were outstanding. The poundcake was so fluffy and soft and it almost melted in your mouth. Mr. Jack and his wife have been running this gem for three years, and their warm, attentive service made us feel right at home. It was so refreshing to have visited such a friendly establishment that truly focuses on the food and service. If you're craving authentic, home-cooked soul food in Miami, this is the spot to visit.

    I've ordered from this restaurant a few times, and it hasn't disappointed yet! When you walk in, you are greeted by everyone, and they are all so kind. It has a bit of a nostalgic feel, and I love that. The food is tasty and the fried dishes are fried fresh. My favorite dish is the baked spaghetti special on Fridays. Definitely a gem down south!

From the moment you walk in, you're greeted by the smell of smoked meat, and you know you're in for something special. It's a quaint little place with community-style picnic table seating indoors, and you can tell it gets busy during peak hours. The staff treated us like family from the moment we walked in and made us feel right at home. I ordered the baby back ribs and brisket, and both were outstanding. The collard greens were hands down the best I've ever had, and the sweet potato soufflé was just as memorable. Even the Texas toast was incredible--I don't usually talk about bread, but this stuff was fire! The drinks were served in large cups, and the sweet tea was absolutely perfect. Dinner for two came to about $78, which might seem a little high at first, but quality barbecue isn't cheap, and every dollar was worth it. The portions were generous, everything was fresh, and this was easily one of the best barbecue meals I've had. We were so full we almost skipped dessert, but I'm glad we didn't. The homemade Key lime pie was the best we had during our entire trip to the Keys. It was smooth, creamy, perfectly balanced with just the right amount of Key lime flavor, and unlike some of the others we tried, it wasn't gritty at all. It was the perfect ending to an incredible meal. We'll absolutely be back the next time we're in South Florida.

    Hi, I wasn't going to leave a review because they're a small business and they don't have any…read morereviews as of yet and I didn't want their only/first review being a negative one but because they didn't honor my refund initiated by my bank, I'm leaving one. I came here excited to try some bbq, based on the pictures the food looks enticing. I placed my order, I had some trouble placing it and the guy who works for the company or maybe the owner came out and he assisted me. It's located in a ghost kitchen hub. I wanted the jerk chicken by itself and I felt the price was a bit expensive being purchased as a A` la carte item and I had trouble ringing it up that way. I thought because I wasn't getting the sides it would be cheaper, but I got it any way. I eventually picked up my food and to my surprise I received 2 extra sides with my order. I was happy about that. I dug in and tasted the Mac and cheese since he said it was one of his best selling sides and I was hungry, after about 4 bites I saw a black long hair in my food. I was disgusted and I called in and told him about the situation and all he said was he'd let the cooks know. I don't even think I received a apology and definitely he didn't offer any other resolution to the matter besides eventually hanging up. If I was a dine-in customer I wouldn't have been asked to still pay for my order. I was disgusted and pulled over on the side and threw up. I gave the rest of the food to some stray cats at a gas station. I called my bank to receive a refund because obviously he wasn't offering one and I wasted my money but I'm guessing he requested the charge to stand as is, so now I'm leaving a review. Don't take money from customers when you have uncleanly cooking practices. I get accidents happen but learn better customer service and it doesn't matter how well intended your original customer service was, if there's a hair in someone's food there's a hair and it was long, so disgusting. I shouldn't still be required to pay for food I didn't eat.
