The hamburger steak and gravy was decent. But my cabbages smell like they had two pig feets in it while it was cooking. And my lima beans and corn has turkey meat in it. I wish they would have told me that my sides would have all of this other meat in it. That just throws my whole taste off from cabbages and lima beans and corn. I wasting my money $16 down the drain -
This is not soul food. This food tastes like the exact opposite of soul. I added a picture of my food in order to show that I tried to eat it. Yams tasted crazy, collards tasted crazy, baked chicken tasted crazy(not even sure what it's supposed to be)since when is baked chicken soaked in buffalo sauce? This is confusing! Just tell me that you don't know what REAL soul food is nor how to cook it rather than sell me some expensive meals that come from processed canned goods. I gave 2 stars for the service employees showing up to work, but one star overall because I paid generously for food that I couldn't eat because it was not good. -
Hands down best soul food in the area! Great daily specials, with welcoming service always! I love supporting local here!! Do yourself a favor and try everything they have on their menu- you won’t be sorry! -
If you’re not going to be open on a Sunday, can customers please be informed ahead of time instead of not saying anything? I was really looking forward to eating here after church on Sunday (5/31/26), so it was disappointing to find out you were closed without notice.
I understand things happen, but updating your hours online or making an announcement on social media would really help customers avoid wasting a trip. Hopefully communication improves moving forward because I was genuinely excited to try the food. -
The food the seasoning was excellent. I give it a 10 the fish was seasoned to perfection. The shrimp was seasoned to perfection. I did not like the coleslaw at all. My only main complaint is they don’t give you enough food. Your plate will be very light two pieces of fish, six pieces of small to medium shrimp and that’s it. The food tastes great it’s just not enough food. You won’t get full.
