Highly disappointed and frustrated with our experience. We arrived around 10:15 and were quoted a…read more15-minute wait. After waiting in the car with the pager, we returned while it was still buzzing, only to be told our seats had been given away and that we needed to wait outside in the sun so we wouldn't "miss" our name again. After finally being seated, we waited over an hour for food that arrived cold and without utensils, while tables seated after us received visibly hot meals. To make matters worse, the waitress spilled hot coffee on my brother. We were offered a remake, but after waiting that long, we were done waiting. When we raised our concerns, our only option was to wait even longer to speak with a manager. The rolls and cornbread were good, but unfortunately that was the highlight. We're now home reheating our food just to make it edible. Very disappointing, especially since we came to celebrate a birthday. Hopefully this was just a bad day, because this level of service was unacceptable.

My wife and I visited a barbecue restaurant we hadn't tried yet, "Rosako's Soulfood and BBQ." (2816…read moreBrown Trail, Bedford, TX 76021) As soon as I got out of my car, I knew I'd found something interesting. The restaurant had a sign stating, "Electric vehicle charging available here." Just to the right of the sign were two Level 2 chargers. We each ordered two 2 meat plates, which included two sides. When we got home and opened the to-go boxes, we realized we had WAY over-ordered. We had enough for two meals for each of us! We had chicken and pork ribs, mac & cheese and flat green beans. It was very tasty with a sweet and spicy barbecue sauce. I spoke with the owner and thanked him for supporting EVs, to which he replied, "How could I not? It's what's coming. How could I not get on board?" He mentioned that quite a few of his customers found him on Plugshare.com and stop by regularly for a meal and charge. I had to Google "So mote it be."

We decided to order from this restaurant through the Too Good To Go app…read more I rarely write harsh reviews, but this experience deserves every bit of criticism. What happened today was unacceptable from the moment we walked in. The place was visibly dirty and completely unappetizing. The back area was mostly hidden behind what looked like a shower curtain, which did nothing to inspire confidence. There appeared to be only one man working, and he came out only a few times during the entire 45 minutes we waited. Even more concerning, there was a child who looked to be about eight or nine years old wearing latex gloves and repeatedly coming out to the front, apparently helping with restaurant tasks that no child should be doing. Despite having prepaid through Too Good To Go, no one acknowledged us for nearly 10 minutes. We stood in a hot dining room with almost no air conditioning while the child wandered in and out and the adult remained behind the curtain. More people arrived behind us, also with prepaid orders, until there were about 10 people waiting. We watched three other customers receive their food before us. One was a DoorDash driver, which made sense, and one woman had arrived before us. However, another woman with a very small order was served ahead of us even though she arrived after we did. When the man finally came out, we showed him our Too Good To Go order. He swiped the app, marking our order as picked up, then disappeared behind the curtain again and never returned with our food. After waiting 45 minutes in a sweltering dining room on a nearly 100-degree Texas day, we gave up. We left without the food we had already paid for. At that point, losing the cost of the meal was preferable to staying in that environment any longer. This was one of the worst pickup experiences I have ever had. Between the unsanitary conditions, the lack of staff, the presence of a child apparently performing restaurant tasks, the complete absence of customer service, and the fact that we never even received the order we had already paid for, I can say with complete confidence: We will never return.

Lolo's Chicken & Waffles We tried the chicken & waffles AND…read morethe shrimp & grits, and both were delicious! The chicken was crispy, the waffles were fluffy, and that salted butter with syrup created the perfect salty-sweet combination. The shrimp & grits were so well seasoned, and the mushrooms were such a nice touch--I've honestly never seen mushrooms served with shrimp & grits before, but I'm here for it! Everything was flavorful, and I enjoyed washing it all down with some sweet tea. Lolo's definitely knows how to do Southern comfort food! Have you tried it yet?

Lolos is the best Chicken n Waffles in the State of Texas. Hands down ... I have not had better…read more The chicken is the most succulent, right amount of seasoning and always the right temp. I finally tried the collard greens this time and goooodnight!! They were amazing. Can't say enough about the waffles... always great, right amount of soft and crunch. The service is like I was being served by my cousin, always feel at home at Lolos. The ambiance and what to expect is this.... Family just got together after church and everyone is hungry. Some tv stuff light music but plenty of conversations!!! Just absolutely love Lolos.

We also ordered a slice of Red Velvet Pound Cake. Every dish we ordered was delicious and flavorful. The wings were crispy and very flavorful. The Oxtail Soul Bowl was packed and loaded on top of a bed of corn bread and it came with a huge piece of corn bread on the side. The red velvet pound cake was something different, but good too. Just very sweet especially drinking their half gallon "Mystery" juice which was good, but also pretty diabetes sweet. I tried my best to get the mystery ingredients from one of the cashiers, but she held strong lol. Overall, it is a pretty expensive type of food, but the portions is pretty huge and fulfilling as well so it balances out. The staff were super friendly and the food didn't take too long to come out. They were under renovation so they only did takeout orders which was a bummer. Parking lot is a bit small, but you'll be fine.

Came here for the first time as I've been trying but I can never catch them open! Saturday they're…read moreopen from 12:30-7pm according to times posted on the front door. I expected to be able to sit down inside with my family and was pretty disappointed that the entire sitting area was blocked off and they're only allowing to go and take out orders. I waited about 35 minutes for two plates of food and spent $71 which I thought was way toooo pricey for just two plates. The soulful bowl with brisket was okay, the brisket wasn't super flavorful, the mac & cheese was a bit too salty and I had high hopes for the yams but they were pretty dry. The catfish and shrimp plate was also below expectations as the shrimp batter was falling off (not fried long enough) and the catfish was a bit fishy. Also I had to beg for cocktail and tartar sauce and got a little attitude when I asked for them. All around not the best experience and don't think I'll be making it back.

The food was very well presented, I had the meat loaf, sweet potatoes, and corn bread…read more Meatloaf was very well portioned savory and tastefully good. Sweet potatoes were very tender. Good portion flavor was amazing.. (For me a bit too sweet), but overall good. Corn bread, now exactly how it was described, very velvety it melts in your mouth. For the flavor and density was very surprised it wasn't crumbly. Service was very welcoming, didn't make you feel overwhelmed for being a first time customer. No rushing while trying to order, which for me is very important when trying a restaurant for the first time. Ambiance very comfortable and laid-back. Definitely will try this hidden gem again

My husband is from the south, Virginia to be exact, so my review will be biased based on that. I am…read moregiving a very generous 4 star review mainly because of the woman who was plating all the food behind the counter and because this place is a soul food spot not southern. I came here today a little after 5pm and did not get a greeting like everyone else did when I walked into the door. They were pretty busy with to go orders around this time. There is an entrance area where you order and pay for your food and a separate area for dining in. I ordered a catfish fillet with Mac n cheese and sweet potatoes and fried shrimp basket with fries and greens to go. I ordered at 5:15 and got my food at 5:45 and let me tell you, it was the longest wait of my life. I think the A/C must've been broken because it was hot in the waiting area and it didn't help that one of the front desk girls kept complaining about them still being open for another hour. There were a bunch of flies everywhere and the front area doesn't seem to be cleaned throughout the day. I also feel for the woman who puts the plates together because she's doing it by herself and was constantly asking the front desk girls to bag the orders. She stayed calm though and still greeted people as they were coming in. Now for the food. The shrimp basket was $25.99 and the catfish was $19.99. The shrimp was good, kids approved. The catfish was good too. All the food was made fresh to order so I can appreciate that for quality. Onto the sides. I think the French fries were accidentally season with sugar instead of salt. The greens were ok, just drenched with garlic. The Mac n cheese, ehhh. I was looking forward to the Mac n cheese but it wasn't as cheesy as I was expecting but tasted ok. The sweet potatoes were really good, probably my favorite side out of the four. The cornbread was moist and good. Overall, food was good but definitely overpriced. However, I do support small businesses but still think it's a bit overpriced based on portion size. They do require you pay for your food before you sit down if you are dining in. This may be because of too many incidents where people dine and dash. I do think that the lady behind the counter putting the plates together needs better help. No offense to the young girls they have working there but either train them or get someone who can actually do the job. If you are looking for true southern food, this ain't it. Texas food vs. southern food are 2 completely different things which I am learning the hard way now having lived here for a year.

The catfish was perfectly seasoned and fried, and the sides tasted authentic, rich, and full of flavor. My friend ordered the stuffed salmon paired with the mac and cheese, and it was an absolute hit for her as well. The food, atmosphere, and overall energy were top-tier. We will definitely be back!

I expected so much more from this place in dallas but it disappointed me in every way…read more I understand its southern food but every single thing on the menu is deep fried and not flavorful.

Upon arrival, we were quickly greeted by the hostess and seated without a wait. Within no time, the server arrived with water and gave us time to look over the menu. It is a relatively large menu with lots of options so I appreciated the extra time. For my entree, I decided to go with the Grilled Blackened Catfish which came with a bed of dirty rice and a salad. While waiting for our food, the server brought out a basket of bread rolls which were very tasty. After a relatively short wait, our food was delivered. While the catfish was not as blackened as I prefer, it was flavorful. My friend ordered the chicken fried steak and he thoroughly enjoyed it. That entree comes with 3 sides and give the size of the chicken fried steak, it makes for a lot of food. When it comes to service, everyone was friendly and welcoming which I aalways appreciated. The space is fairly large and seating consists of table/chair combos along with several booths. Additionally, there is a bar area in the back of the restaurant with seating. Based on what I could see, the bar appeared to be fully stocked. There are also a few TVs in the bar area. Overall, I was pleased with my first visit here and will definitely return to try other things on the menu.

The greens a spot on for taste did not like the little bacon bits in it and the boiled cabbage was good and carrots too.Tea is really weak for my taste. The jalapeño cornbread was a bust it tasted funny maybe they put shortening in it don't know but tasted old. Catfish was ok not fantastic needs Cajun seasoning and just one fillet you will get. Service is very attentive. Ambience is always relaxing though.
