This was one of the best bbq and soul food places in San Diego County. Everything was delicious! An abundance of fresh vegetables, meats and scrumptious food. I felt like I was visiting my mom in the Bay Area or my family that lives in Louisiana. I hope create one down town San Diego.

This place is great to eat, the one plate that I got was the four platter, with your selection of four meats, then four sides 😀, and I couldn't finish it all with the two of us 🤣

I was impressed. The food was delicious. The atmosphere was on point. If I’m ever in Oceanside again, I’ll definitely pay them a visit.

I walked in and told the young lady that I need a table for one. When I sat down, no one came to me for about 30 minutes. The place was not that busy when I showed up. One employee was a Hispanic bald headed male. He walked by me about dozen times. Each time he passed me, he looked at me and didn't say anything. I walked over to the counter and told one of the waitress that I have been waiting for 30 minutes. Finally I get some service. This was my 3rd time coming here and not to happy. I remember a decade ago or more the service was good.

This writer was pleasant surprise with the atmosphere of this restaurant. As a traveling traveler, we were greeted with old-fashioned welcome and the food was superb.. The fried chicken was fried to perfection and macaroni cheese with like grandma macaroni and cheese. And they brought the cornbread as part of the serving.

I tried their San Marcos location. It was bad. Then my husband and I tried a different location, thinking maybe this has real soul food? Again, it was Latinos cooking soul food. Really?🤣😆😂 Again, both of my parents are from the south. I know what real authentic soul food tastes like. This is not even close. Sorry, but this location is horrible, too.🤦🏾‍♀️😛👎🏾👎🏾👎🏾

Sunday brunch buffet was probably the best buffet I've ever had, period. Perfectly cooked St Louis ribs and sides better than any your mama made. Bonus was live jazz piano to set a great atmosphere. Paid about $45 including tip per person but it was well worth it.

The food is solid, good country style cooking. The service is even better, these people working hard to ensure sure every customer is satisfied, and the vibe is great inside. Special thank you to Bee, she is exceptional.

Really good catfish. All the food was amazing. The Carlsbad location is a little unfinished, but if you're hungry for good food and atmosphere is not a priority for lunch, this is a great place to stop and eat.

Absolutely delicious! What a gem of a place. Wonderful, welcoming service, ample parking. I had the 1/2 BBQ chicken w candied sweet yams and perfectly seasoned collard greens. The soft, warm cornbread was equally tasty. There was live music w very talented musicians. Please try Felix's at least once. Yummy food w soul and love for sure.
