I felt the love in this place like they appreciated us coming. After service table for 5 please and within 5 minutes of walking in the door they sat us. They just opened at 12 noon in this Sunday. Everything was hot out the oven. I couldn't eat what I really wanted because they use pork base grease, stock and bones in the food (I'm allergic to pork ‍) So, I got the chicken and waffles DELICIOUS. I'm a satisfied customer and so was the guess that came with me. This is a restaurant worth visiting. They serve takeout too and there is enough food on your plate to share.

I ordered the catfish platter with yams and mac n cheese. Everything tasted fresh. The fish was seasoned perfectly. The yams were perfect and the mac n cheese had a good mix of the noodles to cheese ratio. I even got the kool aid with refill. Before I left I wanted banana pudding but they were out so I got the peach cobbler which I ate at home. Had I known it would be so good, I'd have ordered 2. Im definitely getting it again next time.

(I wasn't a fan of the rap music only because it did not compliment the decor and food.) 4 stars because the food is seasoned and reasonably priced: I ordered the pork chops, as a measure, to see if my next trip would be worth the drive. When they said it was going to take a little longer because of the thickness, I had a bit of regret ordering it. I was extremely suprised that the pork chops were well done to the bone! Take a look at the picture, chops are not dried out! The yams, were a nice treat. Sweet enough for a dessert. I should have ordered extra cornbread. Delicious! The mac and cheese: not overly mushy. The cook did not hold back on the cheese. I am so happy with the homecook taste. I will be back to try the chicken and waffles.

Fair pricing in general but tor the amount of food we got, great pricing! We ended up leaving with 6 styrofoam boxes however and it's definitely a lot of waste in that department. It could have easily been combined into 3-4 at most. The catfish and okra were great, as was the spaghetti which had a bit of a kick to it. The grilled cheese my daughter got was a bit burnt and the cabbage was over cooked but overall great good for a great price. I would try other menu items there in the future.

I'm…read morenot from the Killeen area so let me start off by saying I support black-owned businesses 100% and purchased something from every one of them at the event whether I needed what they were selling or not. Food was okay. I thought dessert size was a bit small for the price so I passed on them. As a consumer that loves to shop and eat I wanted to share my input on business transparency. Understand your rights and beware: They are charging 4% (the max for credit card purchases) in addition to adding tax on the 4% and your purchase. I work in finance and can calculated total automatically in my head. When I asked about the higher amount for my food before paying I was told it was the taxes. Not to hold up the line and it was hot as all get out; I asked for receipt and noticed that the 4% was added to the advertised food item and additional taxes added as a result. Businesses have to disclose upfront before closing the transaction that they are charging a processing fee for credit card purchases. My issue is I used a debit card and should not have been charged a fee (illegal under the Texas business statute) at all. Black business education yourself and don't be the victim of fines accessed by the State of Texas for failing to know the laws and statues protecting consumers.

Energetic is the best word to describe her. I should have gotten her name for a shoutout. The business was spotless, the music was comforting and they support local business. The brisket was literally fall apart good. The mac n cheese was just the right amount of creamy with the toasted cheese on top and the candied yams couldn't have been any better. The sausage was flavored like they did the casing themselves. The potato salad was a home run and the seasoned rice was cooked to perfection. My overall rating for this establishment 5/5 would return in a heat heat. Most likely my new BBQ spot way to go

Right off the back the pulled pork was very tender and flavorful and I do not care for pork that much. The brisket was also very tender but lacked seasoning. The yams were awesome, the corn was overcooked and I am sure its because we got the food right before closing, the cabbage lacked salt and pepper, and the mac n cheese needed salt and pepper as well. Overall the meal was good just a few tweaks here or there and the sides would be bomb! My husband insisted that the brisket needed some smokiness and needed a little more seasoning as well. All in all 7.5/10... for now! Service was awesome and the establishment was clean!

However the second time we came we were excited to eat some good soul food, but after the first bite we were easily disappointed. I will not speak for everyone else, but will only comment on my food. I had the fried pork chops and gravy, greens, corn bread, and rice. The rice was not cooked properly, greens were mushy and was not cleaned good, and the pork chops had more bread than flour. The corn bread was something else, and I used my napkin to spit the cold and dry pieces out. (Quickly in and Quickly out). Seemed liked the food was sitting on the table a while. The only good thing about this place is that the workers were nice. However I am disappointed that the food was horrible, and we should have taken a clue from the empty seats.
