Updated Review: I…read moremade my return visit this evening about 6:00 pm to take the owner up on the offer of a meal on the house and to give them another opportunity. I passed on re-trying the shrimp and grits as they were described as still being just grilled shrimp atop a serving of grits. Shrimp and grits are an absolute favorite of mine and everywhere I go has the shrimp in a sauce with seasoning, peppers, onions, garlic, bacon, etc. and I really wanted to enjoy my food this evening. I ordered the ribs with macaroni and cheese and collard greens. The very nice lady taking my order, I believe is Shirley, was kind enough to include sweet tea and a piece of chocolate cake. Ok so now for my opinion...the ribs were decent once I heated them up. The ribs seemed to be very chilled and not from the 5 minute drive home when my sides remained steaming hot. I enjoyed the ribs which had a pleasant seasoning although they weren't smoked at all, I assume just oven baked. The greens seemed to be canned but the chef did a good job of enhancing them to remove much of the canned taste. The macaroni and cheese was well seasoned and it was made "in house", however it was very difficult to find whole noodles within my serving. The macaroni was very broken up and left me feeling like I was eating just clumps of cheese. The honey lemon ginger iced tea was outstanding! The chocolate cake was not homemade and was just ok. I had to think long and hard about this review because I continue to want to see this business succeed in the neighborhood. I strongly believe that when I go out to eat, the food purchased should be something exceptional. There are many positive things about the service and care apparent when you enter the establishment, but the food is hit or miss for me at this time.

Based on previous reviews we confirmed that the string beans and yams were canned. We got them anyway. Not bad. Just not anything special. Chef Darryl did a great job. If you are expecting Micheline stars from a neighborhood mom and pop joint at this price point you will have to share with everyone when you find it. Will definitely keep this place in our rotation. Local. Tasty. Cheap. Friendly. What more can you ask for?

The fries were good and I enjoyed the hush puppies too. The fish was on the salty side but was solid overall (it had a few bones too so be careful). I also got a jerk chicken and rib platter and while the jerk sauce was savory and spicy, it too was a bit too salty. If they can tone down the salt just a bit this would be 5 star worthy. But it is still good and worth repeating visits.

Everything was excellent. We came on a Thursday night that featured lively jazz band - they played great music that wasn't loud and overpowering like at other local spots.

She kept checking on us to make sure we were OK. Our food came out quickly, hot, fresh and delicious. We had the pork chop dinner and the shrimp/fish dinner, along with peach cobbler.

All the food was good but I can tell the meat was cooked the previous day. To my surprise I didn't need barbecue sauce, the meat was perfectly seasoned and had good smoke flavor.
