Thelma’s Soul Food Restaurant & Bar provides a phenomenal dining experience with excellent service and a soothing ambiance. The catfish dinner and fried chicken are truly finger-licking good, especially the succulent fish and savory yams. The tequila mixed drink packs a punch, and the staff makes guests feel like family. The cute vibe and in-house DJ enhance the overall experience, especially on lively evenings. While some sides could be improved, the wings remain a standout dish. The restaurant is known for great value, with generous portions that satisfy. Recently, guests have praised the delicious food and exceptional service, especially from staff members like Jennifer. Popular dishes include salmon and grits with sweet jerk sauce, mac and cheese, and smothered pork chops, which are described as melting in the mouth. Though some have noted minor issues like the wait time and the absence of tartar sauce for the fish, the overall consensus is that Thelma’s is a must-visit spot for delicious soul food. It is also wheelchair accessible.
