Owner working hard!!!
Joy R.

This is a sweet little honey pot -situated at the junction of well traveled routes. A favorite to many people in the area. It's not a fancy place but the location is clean and follows covid 19 protocols. I had breakfast and early dinner- simply delicious- this is the kind of place where the patrons want to know where you live- many patrons live in the area or have friends and family that live in the area. A lot of times -the grits on a breakfast plate are lukewarm at best- but they are piping hot on my breakfast platter. The bacon nice and crispy. This is a small in area- diner- but offers several options for breakfast lunch and dinner. The hours varies but opens seven days a week. The servers are friendly and courteous-I usually am hungry after waking- so I'm very appreciative of the friendless and kindness of the owner and hostess and how yummy the food is. I had fried catfish a couple times for early dinner- and the food was just as delicious!

(We're still a few days away from Halloween so i did NOT expect Christmas trees!).. was greeted by a lovely smiling older black woman, made me feel right at home. There was a pianist playing along to some instrumental r&b tracks (think chris brown, kehlani- new stuff! What a vibe!) You place your order, choose a seat and wait for your food. I ordered an oxtail plate with a side of greens and mac and cheese. Plenty of oxtail, definitely had to trim a good bit of fat but the quantity they give made up for that. It was $25 and i was very pleased with the quantity of food for that price. Oxtail plates in DC are like $40+ now. The greens were a little salty, the mac and cheese was great. Ordered a catfish w/potato salad (only $8!!!!) and just had it today, wish i got another piece of catfish, soo good. German chocolate cake-moist and delish. Sweet tea was the classic "too sweet"southern tea. This meal(s) was exactly what i wanted. I wish there were more places like this.. everywhere!

The street situation precluded a few spots downtown, and since we weren't in the mood for our go-to taco place, we decided to head out to the Family Diner. The walk-in was awkward on our part- cash register or hot bar line first? A sweet call from the kitchen of "Y'all's first time?" got us headed in the right direction. Full disclaimer: I've been nostalgic for the southern cafeteria lately. While talking to some food industry friends last week, we realized there is something powerful about the food we all remember from K and W. And while Family Diner doesn't have a giant dining room or a 5-snake velvet rope line to get to the counter, it does take me back. Here's how we made our choices: the hot bar was a choice of three types of chicken- the baked and fried were tempting until the gentleman serving us says: "We can fry you fish to order. Flounder, trout, and catfish." The chicken got skipped for a plate of flounder (plentiful plate, btw), and a side of the Mac and cheese and cooked cabbage. The kid sampled the catfish plate, same sides. Sweet tea. And yes ma'am, I'd like the cornbread. Done. We sat down at a table in the main, cozy dining room. The first thing that I noticed: this place is clean- tidy, even. There was a super polite young man moving around and busing tables, tidying up unassumingly and doing it in a way that is lacking in some finer dining places I've been in recently. The food came out, piping hot. I used one of the malt vinegar packets to douse my flounder (a cafeteria habit) and dug in. The first bite was light and flaky, cooked perfectly. Nothing greasy-tasting, at all, just clean. The sides were great- nothing over seasoned, and like cooking at home, there was room for you to season things to your taste. Well played, Family Diner. The owner (I think? She was the one who guided us down the right path when we walked in) came out to make sure that we were happy, and yes ma'am, it's great, and holy cow, you just dropped this cornbread into the skillet and fried it? Yes, we will be back. It's unassuming, and it's just what the doctor ordered. It's a cafeteria, but it's clean and polite and makes you feel good that you ate there. It's soul food, but not just from an ethnic standpoint- it makes me happy and full and feel welcome and I'll be back.

I walked and saw all of the food trucks before ultimately choosing to get food from here. I noticed that their prices were fairly reasonable compared to other food trucks. They were out of the choices that I would typically get such as the wings and jambalaya. I ended up getting the Shrimp Etouffee (Sautéed vegetables cooked into a gravy with Cajun seasoning and Crawfish tail meat served over a bed of white rice) and Cajun boudin balls (Pork marinated in Cajun seasoning and vegetables that is slow-cooked, shredded, mixed with rice, balled up, breaded, and deep fried) with "Who Dat" sauce.I ordered at 8pm and the total was $14.57. I was told it would be ready in 5ish minutes as they were cooking it. I left to order my kid some food at another food truck and came back. It was around 8:10pm and it was ready. The canjun boudin balls were tasty. I wasn't a fan of the "Who dat" sauce. To me, it seemed mustard based and I dislike mustard. My shrimp etouffee came wrapped in a bowl. It was warm in temperature. It was good. The initial appearance threw me off because it looked like soup. However, underneath was nice. Both the canjun boudin balls and the shrimp etouffee had a little heat to them. It wasn't too bad though. I'm don't typically eat spicy foods, so i have a higher sensitivity. I messed up because I forgot to get anything to drink. While I wished my etouffee was a little warmer as the boudin balls were hot/the perfect temperature, it was a good experience overall. The staff was friendly and I enjoyed the food, except the sauce lol.

We made a reservation and were seated upon arrival. Our host was Anthony, I think his name was, with a keen interest for ginkgo trees. He was very attentive, friendly and extremely helpful. He took her order and had some good suggestions. I was craving shrimp and grits which was probably the most unique shrimp and grits. I've had ever. Very distinct flavor and still very rich and familiar. The shrimp were large and juicy as well as remained crunchy overall cooked very well. We also had the summer tomato and burata salad which was really refreshing and delicious. My friend ordered the mac and cheese which is a hefty serving size. Definitely a shareable side or a main for one person. Our host came to check on us frequently, our Waters never went empty. Other hosts were also helping check in on us which was nice. The restaurant itself is large. Booth tables available, which made for a cozy environment. We ended the night with some brownie a la mode, which was the perfect dessert to have on a hot summer day. Overall the experience was amazing, great food and incredibly nice people. Definitely Miss miss the southern hospitality of Durham. Definitely recommend a try here at plum Southern kitchen & bar.

The menu had recently changed so we got to try quite a few new items. We tried the panzanella- sweet corn, red beans, heirloom tomato, patty pan squash, pea tendrills, and a roasted red pepper vinaigrette. This dish was my favorite of the night- small but shareable, entire dish was refreshing and all the flavors and textures went together so well. For dinner I ordered the roasted chicken and the baked mac and cheese with bacon. The roasted chicken was juicy and tasty, and a bit sweet with the bourbon ginger and plum reduction, but the mac and cheese seemed dry and overcooked. We also ordered the buttermilk cheddar biscuits- that taste slightly undercooked (in a good way), so the texture was soft and chewy (and amazing). The honey butter and large maldon salt granules made the biscuits perfect. They were so good we ordered a second order!! I would definitely return to Plum, for both the food and hospitality.

Unfortunately, every time since it has gotten progressively worse. The food has still been good but the service, atmosphere and cleanliness almost made me leave this past visit. And it takes A LOT for me to want to leave. Sat down and my glass had lip stains all over it. Our waitress was not attentive and I didn't even have time to ask for a new glass before she left us. Took another hour for our half sandwiches and small salad for the lunch specials to come out. Gave the wrong dressing and when asked to get the correct dressing the waitress was rude. Also, had to ask for the canned beer she forgot. The food is always good here but the cleanliness and service is hurting this establishment. I would really encourage them to take away automatic gratuity. Even though I always tip and typically do 20% most restaurants that add it you can count on getting bad service. I don't know if I'll keep giving this place more chances, which is a pity because I always recommend it to friends and family.
