Chef Marilyn is an Amazing person And she cooks from the ❤️ Her delicious food will make u come back for more , I Love everything on the menu . I absolutely loved the catfish, the baked chicken, the yams (OMG). I also loved the brisket, the rice/beans. Chef Marilyn has been in Los Angeles since 1989 and I see why. Her personality and food will touch you. She is so sweet and always smiling when I visit the restaurant. ☺️❤️

Being from the South, I have to give this place 2-3 stars on the southern cuisine. I do not recommend getting the fried chicken as it was kinda fatty and undercooked. The Mac & cheese was a letdown as well no real flavor. But on the flip side, the collard greens were very good so that’s my recommendation if you decide to try them.

I had to leave a review after being meeting Tamika (I hope I spelled her name correctly). She has a humorous personality and provided exceptional customer service! I wasn’t having the best day and on top of that I was hungry. Glad I stopped by because I ended leaving feeling much better. And I almost forgot to mention, the food is delicious!
