Soul Food Restaurants near Lawrenceville, GA

“First time here food was Amazing!! Like sitting at home eating my Mother’s Sunday dinner! I will be back when I’m in ATL….“

“The empanadas are very good and the default sauce is pretty good. They used to be overpriced, but prices have adjusted down some which is good to see. Combos do not come with drinks. We only got two sauces with 3 3 piece empanada trios which I'm assuming was just overlooked, but I do know they want to charge if you ask for extra sauces. The chicken itself is expensive for what it is and I probably won't give it a chance. I just can't justify paying the price to try it when good chicken is available all over the place nearby. Service was slow we waited outside for at least 20 minutes for our food.“

“Get over there and get you some delicious food. I had a catfish plate with greens, Mac n cheese, cabbage & dressing and babyyyy it was amazing!!!!!!!!“

“Dorothy Mae's is top tier ! I am from NC, so I KNOW good soul food. When I tell you they know what they are doing back in that kitchen, THEY DO ‼️ The customer service was amazing as well. The staff brought a container of fresh outta the grease catfish for us to sample as we waited for our food. It was delicious ! We ordered some of everything on the menu and it was all amazing, cooked to order, and so flavorful. I brought a piece of sweet potato pie back to the hotel for dessert and can't wait to try it. On their web page, it appears they are moving from Boxete to their own spot in Tucker, GA in a few weeks. This gem is terrific and they offer a catering menu as well. The prices are great, too.“

I used Suthern Cluck to cater a meal for 48 people (my son’s theater group) and it was raved about for weeks! They are the best at all they do and they do it with a superior execution! Chef’s kiss! 😘“

“Listen, I’ve known Olivia for a long time. I enjoyed coming to her house when she was in KY eating her food! I had to come to Georgia for work. I told her I was going to stop by! Omg! The food is GREAT! Real southern cooking at its best. I ordered almost everything on the menu!!! Top notch food and service. I drove 6hrs home and could not wait to eat!!“

“TLDR: Food is amazing. Worth the calories and the dollars.

Tried this for the first time and loved everything so much it was gone before I could get a photo of it. The wait for our order was very short and the friendly staff helped it feel even shorter. The wings with the lemon pepper dust were absolutely amazing. The vegan burger was even better the cheese melty and all the food was pipping hot. Would definitely recommend and it’s not if I will be back but when.“

“Love that they are now apart of the AYSA (Alpharetta Youth Softball Association) events! Excellent food selections & friendly staff. Highly recommend their services.“

“Yes I definitely recommend them. Today is my son’s 12th birthday and he wanted some funny little creature on his cake that I made for him. At first he was wanting to put it on with icing and I told him that it can be a pain sometimes especially if he messes up it’s kinda hard to go back and fix it. So I called Decadent Creations and asked Chief AJ if he could print an edible Image. And without hesitation he said yes ma’am I sure can. And I asked him if he could do it small enough to fit in between the words happy and birthday on my sons cake and he said yes I told him that I wanted it 3“ x 3“ and without hesitation he said yes ma’am I can do that. Other places I called either said they couldn’t do it at all or that it had to be in an 8 and a half by 11. So thanks you very Chief AJ. We will definitely use your service again.“

“Food is good but they are mostly out of burgers which is a disappointment, overall good and friendly service.Be aware menu on Grubhub is not correct. French Fries are mentioned on Grubhub, they don't serve French fries at all. Please call to place order.

“I visited this cozy little restaurant and really enjoyed the warm atmosphere. The assorted pepper soup and beans with fried plantain were both delicious and well-prepared. However, the service was a bit clumsy, as only one person was serving all the customers, which made things a bit slow and disorganized. The owner came out to assist at some point, and she was very pleasant and welcoming. That said, they definitely need more hands on deck to improve efficiency and service flow. With better staffing, this place could really shine.“
