    Five Stars for Gladys' Kitchen in Americus!If you want authentic, locally owned and operated soul…read morefood, this mom-and-pop gem is a must-visit.Just a heads up on timing: they officially open at 11 AM, but today (Sunday) the doors opened at 11:55 AM once the kitchen had all the scratch-made food ready to go. There was already a crowd waiting out front, which is always the best sign of a great local restaurant! It is a cafeteria-style setup with an amazing Sunday lineup. They had both fried and baked chicken, fried pork chops, turnips, rice, black-eyed peas, mac & cheese, fried green tomatoes, steamed okra, and dressing. I had the fried chicken along with the turnip greens, black-eyed peas, and fried green tomatoes. Every single bite was fresh and delicious. The greens and black-eyed peas completely stole the show--easily some of the best I've ever tasted. The friendly staff keeps the line moving smoothly. Don't let a slight opening delay deter you; the food here is absolutely worth the wait!

    Gladys' Kitchen is a staple in the community, synonymous with Southern hospitality and comfort…read morefood--and they did not miss! From the moment we walked in, it felt like visiting your favorite aunt's house on a Sunday after church. The food was hot and fresh, and the staff was friendly and attentive. Everything was well-seasoned, and the chicken was cooked perfectly. The dressing was a tad dry but still flavorful. The collard greens may have been cooked with pork, which I don't eat, so I didn't have them--but I did taste them. They were finely cut, well-seasoned, and definitely not from a can. As I was leaving, I was asked about my experience, and I later realized I was speaking with Ms. Gladys herself. She was sitting in the lobby, observing and ensuring that everyone had a great dining experience. I highly recommend this place for both the food and the hospitality. This feels like "down home"

Great customer service from start to finish. Didn't go past the front, just sat in take out area. No info on restrooms. We ordered to go. The wait for the food wasn't long at all. They inform you of items being cooked fresh and about how long it will take. My husband enjoyed his pork chop dinner. He says everything was to his liking. He didn't eat the ho-cake, as he is on keto. My meatloaf dinner; Not so much. The meat loaf was clearly cooked a while ago , so it was noticeably microwaved, or it may have been sitting under a heat lamp a bit too long. Made it tough, and dark. But the flavor was pretty good. So I imagine it'd be great when fresh. The mashed potatoes were boxed, but not bad. The black-eyed peas had no taste whatsoever; no onion or garlic, salt, pepper, etc. Same with the ho-cake, dry with no flavor. The cabbage-collards were really good. They don't cook any of their veggies/peas/beans with meat. That works for me, cause I don't eat pork. The red velvet looked questionable, but turned out to be delicious. I will be retuning to try other menu items. My meal wasn't perfect this time, but my husband enjoyed his. I say check them out. Good food AND great customer service in Albany are hard to find.
