The fried chicken was crispy and fried hard just the way I like it, with plenty of flavor in every bite. The greens were seasoned perfectly, and the yams were sweet with a great texture--not too hard and not too soft. I visited on a hot summer day, and the restaurant can get pretty loud and a little stuffy when it's busy. Thankfully, they had fans placed throughout the space, which made it much more comfortable. Overall, I enjoyed both the food and the atmosphere. If you're looking for good soul food and want to support a place with a meaningful mission, Whole Truth Lunchroom is worth a visit. I'd definitely go back.

A ministry of the church next door, Wilson's Whole Truth Lunchroom is a hidden gem. Located a few…read moreblocks from downtown and run by dedicated volunteers, this is an old school cafeteria with the type of food you'd expect from Southern church ladies. Dishes vary from day to day but the fried chicken, baked chicken, and fried pork chops are staples. Plates come with two sides and you can see from the photo why the blackeyed peas are so good (spoiler alert - it's bacon, lots of bacon). Collards are also delicious and the yams are mildly sweet without being cloying. The banana pudding is gloriously warm and the meringue is fluffy. The pudding is a touch too sweet and I could have done with more bananas but it was large enough to share. The staff is genuinely happy to see you and are happy to talk about their work, if you like. The room is a bit bare bones and the bathrooms are rudimentary and cramped but everything works. There is parking directly in front of the restaurant. Thanksgiving take-out is available for pre-order (see photo). I have a strong feeling you won't go wrong with any of the choices.

Service was stellar and it was an easy in/easy out dining experience. As for ambiance, it's bipolar. An unclear mixed bag of what the business actually is - Smack dab at the entrance immediately upon entering is a 3-in-1 hostess station-ticket exchange counter for kids-cash register that morphs at a 90° angle inward into a wall of liquor with TV's above a bar. Front and center is a handful of tables, beyond is the semi-open kitchen and on the left is a widened entry into a 1980's-1990's arcade games room. Don't expect Dave & Buster's caliber of games or intentional segregation of adults only vs family acceptable zones. Good potential for preteens+ to ride their bikes to and grab some grub with their friends if the booze wasn't so dominant. There may have been a bicycle rack outside, I cannot recall. I can see this as a spot for families to go for a kid-friendly dining spot and for those who don't mind eating amid kids being kids in a kid-friendly place as Downtown Wilson continues its quest to clean itself up. Worth a repeat visit later in the future as it should be interesting to see how this business evolves, similar to the rest of the immediate area, once it finds its stride and nails down the demographic that is its bread and butter.

We ordered a few items to get taste of what they had to offer: Philly Cheesesteak Double Cheeseburger Hot Dog Fried Chicken Fries, Fried Okra, and Potato Wedges Those fried okra were the TRUTH! Fried perfectly - could eat those over having the fries or wedges any day. The burger was okay, very thick but a little overcooked for my liking. The hot dogs taste like they were deep fried. I know a lot of people don't like it that way - but wanted to make note of it. It was good overall. The fried chicken was hot, juicy, and very crispy. The seasoning was a little salty for my liking but the chicken under it was good. Now that cheesesteak is where it is! Good seasoning on the meat, the bread was tender, and the veggies cooked good.

Well, The Ol' Mangaretta had a craving for potato wedges, and on pure chance, searched and ordered from the first restaurant with wedges on the menu. Enter Chicken 2 Go. Wedges with a vengeance, avenging Mang's hunger! Add to those wedges a plethora of mains and sides that my two dining companions and I ordered: crisp, juicy fried chicken (though I wouldn't have minded a few more herbs in the flour); cheesy good chicken cheesesteak; so-so chicken fried rice; yummy collard greens; savory, crunchy, yet pillowy hush puppies; average onion rings; and meh mac and cheese. But those we'll-seasoned wedges were all my dreams hoped they'd be. So, four stars for delicious chicken, cheesesteak, greens, hush puppies, and craveable wedges that were even more tantalizing the next day after a trip through the air fryer. Minus one star for a few lackluster sides. Wedge ya just try Chicken 2 Go already?

The location is easy to find with plenty of parking. The staff that we encountered were pretty friendly and helpful. There seemed to be plenty of seating and the front of the restaurant was clean. All the food looked to be cooked to order (which is where some of my issues stem from- but we will come back to this). Oh and pricing was relatively the same as any other burger joint in the area - that's good for anyone interested in price comparison. Now...for the cons. Le sigh. The burger patties had no seasoning and honestly tastes like frozen patties from Walmart. The crinkle fries, the same - tasted as if they came from frozen section with no love put into 'elevating' them. Like maybe some fry seasoning or something. Obviously, I know fries are frozen if not freshly cut - but it doesn't have to taste like it! The zucchini fries were just lifeless - soggy things. Jut no hope for them. The wings did not taste fresh. This is where my issue started - regarding food being prepared when ordered. Are these wings that were fried earlier and the re-fried when ordered? I don't know - but it wasn't for us. This was also the feeling about the bacon on the Western burger. Sadly, there isn't anything I would return for but hey I invite you to try - you might have a different experience.

My husband and I stopped in for an early breakfast and were not disappointed. This charming little spot is full of Southern personality. It's not fancy, but you're welcomed the moment you walk through the door by the friendly ladies behind the counter, and it immediately feels like home. The menu includes classics--along with a few Southern staples that were brand-new to us as New Yorkers, like "backbone and chew bread." We didn't try it this time, but based on the crowd, I'm sure it's delicious! I ordered fried eggs, bacon, and grits, while my husband went for fried eggs, bacon, hash browns, and toast. Everything was cooked just right, simple and satisfying, but what truly made the meal memorable was the warmth and hospitality. The space itself adds to the experience--filled with quirky chicken décor and a handwritten menu on a whiteboard that adds to its cozy, old-school charm. It's the kind of whimsical little hole-in-the-wall that feels like a warm hug. If you're in the area, I highly recommend stopping in. It's not just breakfast--it's an experience, and one that captures the heart of true Southern comfort.
