“This was a delightful, casual dining experience. The space is adequate, but I imagine it's packed during busy hours. Early brunch is a great idea. The service was friendly, the vibes were immaculate, and brunch was actually so much more than I expected!!! I read the reviews, but nothing prepared me for how delicious everything was!! Do whatever it takes to get those special pancakes. And if you like bread pudding, you'll LOVE their bread pudding bites!!“

“Our family of 5--parents + kids 22, 19 and 13--had Fatburger on our "must do" list for LA. We wanted to eat inside, but they were only serving through the drive-thru so...drive-thru it was. The wife and I don't eat beef so we each got the Fatburger w/Impossible patty. The kids got the Classic Fatburger. Fries all around of course. The car was filled with smacks, slurps and mmmms. Good burgers! Now the fries could have used more seasoning but the burgers were slappin'!“

“Nice spot upgrade desperately needed“

“I enjoyed their food...I didn't particularly care for the instant mashed potatoes... had I'd known that they were "instant" and not real mashed potatoes I would have passed on the instant mashes potatoes, and definitely not ordered that particular item with my 3 ( three)to go orders. Other than that..everything was good and seasoned just right... :)I support this business, and I love that they are also an organization that is helping men and women get back on track with their sobriety.. Dare U To Care Grill is helping to keep them gainful employment and also helping them establish stable housing.Everyone deserves a second chance...Dare U To Care Grill is doing great things!! I prefer to support those who care enough to help and give back!!“

“THIS IS THE BEST SOUL FOOD RESTAURANT I'VE EATEN IN MY MANY TRAVELS. BLESSED AND WONDERFUL EXPERIENCE AND ATMOSPHERE!!!!“

“Good food, sometimes a little too salty; especially on the turkey chops, my favorite. Also, whoever answers the phone to take orders, I know, make sure you have your order ready, but he was rushing me off the phone. I had to call back to make sure he got my order correct. Anyway, the food is still good.“

“I recently stumbled upon your establishment and must say, the name perfectly captures how I felt after trying your food. I ordered fried wings, rice, and vegetables, and each dish was exceptional.

The wings were piping hot, and the aroma that wafted from the box was simply incredible. The blend of spices and flavors was perfect, and I was truly blown away.

The rice was buttery and delicious, and the vegetables were a wonderful complement to the meal.

Thank you for such a delightful dining experience. I will certainly be back for more.“

“Awesome turkey day fixings and sides were all delicious.“

“Great BBQ food. Chicken, sausage, ribs, sides are good too. Bbq bean I like them. Potato was perfect. Mac cheese I'm not big on it but it was good too. Bbq sauce was a bit on the sour side for me. I like a sweeter taste. Over all my order was worth the price.💯👍 For sure to come again.“

“wish y'all start back selling the burritos and a chicken wing dinners so miss that“

“Fish seasoned just ✅ macaroni salad ✔ #thogreens 🔥“

“The food is just absolutely amazing. You feel like you’re eating at family’s house because you can taste the time, effort, and love that goes into cooking every single thing. But I’ll tell you, it’s Robert Earl’s wife that’s the featured item here. She is genuinely sweet and caring and truly wants you to love their food. We enjoyed talking to her during our visit. The portions here are massive. You’ll definitely get your money’s worth, believe that. Overall, great place, and I wish I lived closer. I wonder if they could deliver to the east coast? Haha!“

“Smothered pork and fried chicken breast is one of my favorite food here. Service is fast and friendly. It has been always been one of my favorite spot for lunch. Only one things that i don't like about is wait time, Otherwise this place is simply great!“

“Delicious fried chicken, waffles and sweet syrup. I'm picky about fried chicken, but this was great. Their French fries are excellent, lightly crispy, still soft inside. And I feel safe in the restaurant with 20+ security cameras and a guard near the entrance.“

“Owner is always kind.
Food is fresh always.
Breaded fish has the right batter amount.
Size of dishes are fairly to price,
The place has a big variety of plates.
I always order fried fish next time I'll be more adventurous.
If you come before 2 pm you pay a dollar less.
You must wait for your food they made it by ordar.

Dietary restrictions: They can make it as you want it

Parking: Is ok“

“Ok, the bar is beyond slow but when your drinks arrive they will hit you like three punches to the face. People, atmosphere, the game on point. Delicious $2 fried chicken and red beans and rice. ...gets me here every Monday and Thursday. Did I mention the open mic night or the live Jazz? The Spot for pretty girls on a budget that like to get their groove on.“
