I take my aunt here annually to pick up her thanksgiving catered order. Today we decided to have lunch as well.
This place has a warm feeling and the staff is stern but in a friendly organized way. The food is good and I am thankful for free street parking.
Great job SPC!

Excellent soul food and breakfast! Food was not overcooked and seasoned well. We brought breakfast, dinner and dessert spending less than $50.

When I’m in DC I have breakfast here daily. It’s a really special place with a huge selection of authentic dishes. I always have grits, stewed apples, cheesy scrambled eggs and pork links but they have it all. And for lunch you can get fried chicken and collards and cornbread and more. I could go on and on. It’s the real deal and very friendly and welcoming to those of us visiting from far away places. They put the soul in soul food!

AMAZING!
You know a place is good when you open the door and you’re immediately enveloped in the best kind of aromas coming from the kitchen.
Even with the long line and some customers complaining about it, these ppl who work here are nothing but sweet kind and welcoming.
This place is worth going to and coming back to.

Was my privilege to be able to come here and try their absolutely delicious Southern cuisine. As a tourist, I've only read about Southern food, and was very happy to be able to try mashed potatoes, fried apples and cornbread. Everything was absolutely delicious. Wish I could come back to try more but I'm flying off already!

Fried chicken heaven. Everything is delicious— ribs, fish, sides, desserts.. Food matched only by the warmth of the welcome of by the people in line with us (Hello, Eunice! 😘) in their fine Sunday church clothes. The line was long, so be prepared for a bit of a wait. The staff could not have been nicer — and did I mention that chicken?

Delicious food and very generous portions. Can’t go wrong as there are so many options everyone can find something they’d like.
Had the meatloaf dinner with 2 sides and it was more than I could finish. Ladies behind the counter pile on the food like you’re their favorite grandkid.

Dietary restrictions: Had eggs and grits for breakfast which was gluten free and vegetarian. They don't prepare it separately though.

Excellent southern home cooking. I was here 3 days in a row for breakfast. On the 3rd day I ate my breakfast and sat there for 2 more hours until they finished serving breakfast and started serving lunch & dinner. then I got back on line to get my dinner. Simply scrumptious food and deserts.
