The first time I tried this place, I didn’t really like the food. I forgot what had got but I didn’t like the parsley flakes on everything. But, I decided to give this place a second try and well… it was wayyyy better than the first. I don’t know who was in the kitchen today but the food was excellent! I got the smothered pork chops with rice and gravy, with a side of their green beans and potatoes, macaroni and cheese with their hoecake/flapjacks. The only thing was my pork chop was a little chewy but I know people have different ways of cooking things. But overall 8.5/10 (a high 8). I actually should’ve added another hoecake, it was so delicious!

There wasn't many people dining in when I went, but many calls for take out. Just about everyone ordered the oxtails and I just had to follow suit. Had the Oxtails over rice with candied yams, Mac n cheese, and hoecake. It was all delicious!It was my first time in, but was welcomed as any other regular.

David served us some of the best fried chicken I have ever had. The service was excellent, the food was excellent, and the place was clean and had a nice atmosphere. I’ll be returning next time I’m in

The best soul food I've had in all of Georgia. Laidback atmosphere and top notch food. David up front treated me right and gave me a good recommendation on a smother pork chop with mac and cheese and collards. Tender pork, rich gravy, with creamy mac and tender collards. An absolute must visit for anyone who likes soul food in the area. I'd rate it higher if I could.

My family and I traveled to lovely atmosphere after searching for a soul food restaurant and we found this place. I must say that food was Vey Delicious and we felt like we was at our Big Mama house. We will be visiting this restaurant again. Oh, and the young man that was at the front was wonderful. ????????????

THE FOOD HERE IS SO GOOD! I tried this place for the first time with my bf and we both inhaled our food! I got oxtails and a smothered pork chop with veggies and he got the fried fish and shrimp with fries.The meat was so tender!! The oxtail meat was falling off the bone and I was able to cut my pork chop with a butter knife! The fish and shrimp were seasoned and fried to perfection! Even the vegetables were seasoned well and weren’t mushy or too crunchy! The gentleman at the counter was also very down to earth and pleasant to talk to. I highly recommend this restaurant! I’m definitely looking forward to next time!Vegetarian options: They have Broccoli, steamed or fried okra, green beans, collard greens, cabbage, Caribbean vegetables, mashed potatoes, rice and gravy, and Mac and cheese. The vegetables are also super reasonably priced too! You can get yourself a full plate of vegetables and easily maintain your diet.Dietary restrictions: It’s very easy to have a keto friendly meal because they have a lot of meat and vegetable options that you can get and not eating the rice or the cornbread pancakes.

Best soul food/southern cooking in Statesboro, priced well, large portions. Support this small business if you haven't been you will not regret it. Found this gem last month and have been 3 times since.

Think I just found the best place in Statesboro to eat! Food was down home and service was top notch. I really started not to write this review cause I kinda wanted to keep it a secret.
