I stop in here last Sunday and baby let me tell you they are on point! I ordered catfish, shrimp and chicken wings and couple of sides everything and I mean everything was delicious! The price and customer service was on point also! The owner gave me a free dessert because they were out of one of the sides I ordered and that was so unexpected and kind of her. I’ve been telling all my friends about how good the food is and I can’t wait to go back! Hands down some of the best soul food in PHX!!

I decided to try this location based on the reviews. I’m glad I did. My order was excellent! I got the catfish & chicken combo—everything was made fresh, hot, and seasoned just right. And let me tell you, it was a lot of food for such a reasonable price. Well worth it.
Shout out to Peanut and Cosha—two of the friendliest people I’ve run into in a long time. They made the experience even better with their welcoming vibe and great service.
Now let’s talk about that red velvet cake… Hands down the best I’ve ever tasted. I knew I was wrong veering off my eating plan, but I didn’t just slip—I dove head first into that slice and didn’t look back! 🫣
Thank you for an amazing meal! The drive was definitely worth it. I’ll be back—no question.

It was my first time going and I was quite disappointed. The fish and greens were very very salty. I couldn’t eat the greens at all but managed to eat the whiting fish I ordered. The yams were pretty good though. Will I go again? Probably but will not order greens again and will ask them to hold the salt on my fish

I saw Southern Fried pop up in a Phoenix group and headed out to try the food based off the photos. I have passed this place multiple times and I never paid attention to it. I ordered the salmon croquettes, greens, yams, and a side of mac and cheese.
I strongly suggest if you want a taste of Southern food, go ahead and try them. The croquettes were very flavorful and seasoned with bell peppers and onions. They were moist and crispy on the outside. The mac was good. The yams were just sweet enough. Not too sweet, but enough to double as dinner and dessert. The greens were a bit salty, but I used the cornbread to cut the taste. The cornbread was good as well. It was on the sweet side, but it worked well as a way to sop up the greens. I was very surprised that I was also offered a taste of their sweet potato cornbread. It was really good. I tried to make some several times, and I haven't been able to master this recipe.
The staff was very friendly. They were personable and attentive. Due to the heat and the lack of AC I felt like I was at my grandmother's house. So, you really get a homestyle vibe from the place. Don't expect to sit down and eat. This is a to-go spot. Now, if it wasn't 108 outside, I probably would have sat at the one high top table, but it's really not a place to dine. Take your food home and enjoy. The total cost for my meal was $22. The mac was extra.

The food was BOMB!! My friend and I enjoyed every bit of it. The prices for the food were worth buying. If you want some soul food check this place out. You will love it!!

Food is extremely bland and wait time is a bit long for some bland food doesn’t taste seasoned at all. The service was really good but the food isn’t worth the return for us. Also hot and tight in waiting area for the wait time to be as long as it is as well.

I can't give this more than 2 stars. I pre-ordered so I wouldn't have to wait and when I got there the system was down and I still had to wait. Luckily they trusted me. Must happen often. But they were trying on the service side of things. It was hot and small in the waiting area. The TVs weren't working or on. I got fried catfish. This was nothing to call home about. Well cooked but bland. I wasn't expecting gourmet but salt and pepper will go a long way for my simple taste buds.
Ordered the most basic burger called K-9. GREAT homemade taste. Very casual place. Nice gentleman took the order and seems he was the only one there. No public restrooms. Also No Air conditioning. Food is packaged to go. Have been there a few times over the last 6 months or so. Spaghetti on the menu once when I visited but haven't been able to try it yet. K-9 cheeseburger is very good.

I am from Chicago so I know all too well that the hole-in-the-wall joints are the true gems of any city and Southern Fried is just that. I had the catfish and spaghetti, burgers and hotlink and all of my guest were satisfied with their meal. The portions for the price are just right. The seasoning on the fish was superb! DO NOT LET THE COLOR OF THE SPAGHETTI FOOL YOU it was fantastic. Great customer service with an at-home feel. If you are looking for a Southern taste in your mouth look no further
