Loved it

Quality has went from amazing to poor I have been going here for lunch and dinner since 2016 and the quality of food and service has decreased tremendously. I am absolutely appalled at the way the cook handles the food and drinks at this place. Not only does some of the veggies come out spoiled the meat looks bitten into when servedParking: You will be lucky if you not towed or robbed waiting on your food

I ordered through grubhub & the food was soooo fresh & the container was wrapped in plastic which kept everything hot. I enjoyed the love that went into the fish being as tho I'm pescatarian. I would recommend this place for the fish

The food is always on point especially when the older hostess who I believe may be an owner. And the other older lady is super nice as well who takes orders. The middle age server / bartender is awesome when she in the mood she like your aunty that if she not in the mood you know to feed lightly but she good peoples over all.my issue today is with this Mix players can’t be touched on the soulful cooking provided but the tea was a disgrace coming from a DC favorite. I will be looking for an improvement this is unacceptable.

Ordered through Uber eats.First time and the last time for me!I've lived in Congress Heights for over 30 years and never once visited the Players Lounge because of the element that hung out in front.Recently I saw a story on the news whereas the owners said they were losing business because their customers were afraid to visit the area (the riff raff hanging out front).Because of the news story, I decided to order. Give their food a try.Unfortunately, I appeared to have made a mistake. The food was awful!Turkey wings had so much gravy that they were barely visible.There was more skin than turkey meat!Worse, the stuffing had the consistency and look of oatmeal or vomit...runny !Sweet potatoes had an odd, mediciny taste.The greens were fairly decent, but taste like sugar was added.Never again.... I'll stick to Southpride and Henry's Soul Cafe!

I have lived in the area for over 30 years and have never visited the establishment. After seeing the news story on television about how the owners were losing business because their usual customers no longer wanted to visit the area because of the unsavory elements hanging around, I decided to give them a try. My order was placed on Uber eats. After receiving and viewing the contents, I was highly disappointed. My food looked like slop they would serve a pig Turkey wings had more skin than meat smothered in a ton of gravy. The stuffing looked like overcooked, mushy oatmeal or vomit. Yes...vomit! Sweet potatoes tasted mediciny and being in the same container, got mixed with the gravy and slimy stuffing. My cornbread was omitted and I didn't get my chocolate cake . This is my first time ordering as well as my last time! No recommendations or endorsements from me! I will stick with two of my favs, Henry's Soul Cafe and SouthPride in Eastover.

It's a little old fashion and may need to be updated a bit but the food is clean and delicious! l like the way that the food is delivered and it taste so good, especially the spaghetti and the potatoes or Western fries. It's a good place to get a great meal.

Ordered the 4piece fried chicken with candied yams and macaroni and cheese, everything was good EXCEPPPPPT the Mac and cheese, honestly, the noodles wayyyy over cooked, slimy and mashed texture. Then the roux alone for the Mac and cheese is like a god damn gravy and it lacks taste like throw the whole pan over and get a new recipe cause yea… & I was that upset and let down I had to write my first review. Cause who in your kitchen tasted this Mac and cheese and still decided to sell it, pls fire that person immediately…. I will be returning for the fried chicken, and fried chicken onlyyyyyyy, good prices
