“This place is amazing. Great food and even better attitudes from everyone around. The buzzing energy makes feel like I'm in a movie!“

“Had a lovely dinner and our server Jade was excellent! The shrimp cocktail was delicious and the hot fried catfish and fried hen sublime! A wonderful experience!“

“It was even better than I remember. I had the catfish po boy, chicken & waffles. The French bread, remoulade sauce & generous seasoning of the fish were delicious. I would definitely not consider myself a grits fan but the fried cinnamon sugar grits…so good. I can definitely post photos of empty boxes but other than that ??‍♀️. You’re going to have to order your own. Make sure you order directly on the restaurant site www.gritznwafflez.com. Signed up with my email when I ordered & got a discount.“

“No seating area. Fried chicken is good. Coleslaw is their own, different. Their rice has diced jalapenos, with a flavor of dirty rice. I like it. The roll is regular, 3rd party purchase, dry, no flavor.

Parking: Handicapped Parking.

Wheelchair accessibility: Wheelchair accessible.“

“Just Wonderful Place To Eat At“

“Good food 🍱, good service“

“Good Clean Fun isn’t just a wine bar, it’s a Downtown institution. Ian and his team have cultivated something truly special: a space that consistently delivers exceptional natural wines, beautifully fresh food, and an atmosphere that feels effortlessly joyful.

What sets GCF apart is its reliability in delight. I’ve celebrated birthdays here, lingered on date nights, raised toasts at farewell parties, attended themed Good Clean Fun events, and each visit has been a masterclass in hospitality. The wine is always exciting and thoughtfully curated, the food is bright, seasonal, and satisfying, and the energy? Unfailingly warm and convivial.

Ian’s passion for what he does is infectious. He’s not just pouring wine , he’s telling stories, sharing discoveries, and creating community. It’s this blend of curiosity and care that keeps the experience fresh while always feeling like home.

Thank you GCF, for being my go-to for great wine, great company, and creating greater memories.“

Our first visit on Monday I ordered the smothered pork chops with succotash which was very tasty on Tuesday I ordered the oxtails mac and cheese and cabbage and very tasty“

“Asked for a view in a 3/4 empty room, was told 2 people couldn't have the corner seat. Was offered an inferior view so we left. Bad business to turn away a couple over seat preferences. We have never been to a Bubba Gump Shrimp restraunt before, will never return either. Too bad. Went across the pier to Seaside on the pier and have an excellent view.“

“Everything, You can't go wrong. Catfish, Shrimps, char grilled Oyster, Grilled Salmon blue cheese salad, PO Boy sandwiches, Gumbo. I can go on and on. I go at least 1 Sunday a month after church.“

“It’s slow to get your order, but that’s because it’s made fresh. If your in a hurry, take it to go. Otherwise, the chicken is excellent.“

“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!“

“Absolutely the finest Soul Food. You don't want to skip this place. I had the lunch portion of the Oxtail and chose the Candied Yams and Mac and Cheese as sides. It came with 2 Cornbread Muffins.

“James at Angry Chickz in Glendale is an asset. Great service and friendly. Food is tasty, but it’s the people that will have us returning.“

“Lemon Pepper Dry & ATL special w/ Cajun fries 😋 Yummy!“

“Cajun outdoor shack with fried seafood options, gumbo, and even alligator. There’s a small parking lot behind the building. Credit cards are accepted. Outdoor dining only (no indoor options) and there’s delivery and takeout available. As other reviews and the sign on their window notes,you won’t get the food quickly since it’s slow food and that’s part of the whole experience. You scan a QR code to get the menu. I opted for a fried catfish and five shrimp plate which came with an option of two small sides. I got the red beans and rice as well as fries. The red beans and rice were hot and comforting; the fries are crinkle cut. The plate came with a side of tartar sauce and there are hot sauces and ketchup available at each table. They have a paper towel roll and hand sanitizer at each table as well. The fish isn’t as seasoned as I would’ve expected but the shrimp was super fresh and tasty. I had leftovers and they still kept relatively well the next day.“

“Delicious 👍 I recommend it“

“It's small and gets crowded at peak hours. I like the chicken. It's slightly different from the other franchises. The french fries are very good. It's cheaper than the bigger franchises. I like that you can choose between drumsticks, thighs, or wings. Mix and match what you want. Their prices are very reasonable. I highly recommend you give them a try.

Parking: I only go to their restaurant on MLK near the corner of Vermont. But there are more locations.“

“Ich liebe Bubba Gump und besuche praktisch jedesmal wenn ich bei m Universal Citywalk unterwegs bin. Wer Shrimps mag, liebt diesen Laden.“

“Best fried chicken in Inglewood.“

“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!!“

“I love the platanos and platano de empanadas, is my go to! Pupusas are great. Curtido is great, made the traditional way! I recommend you call in to place your order. Is not that they are slow is just the food is great they get tons of orders. I love that its clean inside too. Yeah its located in not the best street but never been a problem for me. I recommend this place!“

“Awesome experience. Food is just like u would want it to be. Great hospitality. The owner and staff are wonderful. Please check it out.“

“I live an hour away and I still drive here because the food is 🔥 🔥🔥“

“I took my friend out for her birthday and the food here was so delicious. The fish and chips was good but baby those potatoes man was fire. The employees was nice and friendly. Will be back soon.“

“Great Soul Food. Large portion of food at inexpensive prices. One plate can feed 2 people depending on what you order.“
