“What a beautiful lunch experience at Dorothy Mae's Soul Food Kitchen
From the moment we walked in, we felt welcomed. The atmosphere is cozy, warm, and inviting. It feels like sitting at your grandmother's table for Sunday dinner. The food was fresh, flavorful, and absolutely delicious.
Mr. Rickey was incredibly kind and hospitable, and it's clear he has gifted hands in the kitchen. Everything we tried from the fried wings and fish to the mac and cheese and candied yams was cooked to perfection and full of flavor. Every bite felt like it was made with care and love.
The prices are very reasonable, and while there is a small dining area for those who want to eat in, takeout is also available.
If you're looking for authentic soul food that nourishes more than just your appetite, this is the place. You can truly feel the soul and love in every dish. Highly recommended this and a nap afterwards..LOL! Thanks Mr. Rickey for taking good care of us.“

“This food is so good!!!!! From the turkey wings, to the yams, black eyed peas, corn bread, and they have kool-aid! Definitely would recommend!!!! Great customer service too! WARNING-THIS WILL PUT YOU TO SLEEP!!!!! Don’t have anything to do after you eat this food!“

“A friend of mine told me about this soul food place. I was very pleased with the meatloaf and greens and mac and cheese! Large portions for the price. Excellent cobblers and homemade cakes. Eat in or carry out.“

“They put the ‘Del’ in Del-licious! 😋😋😋“

“Beware..employee made unauthorized charges on my credit card.“

“I tried this place for lunch and I am glad I made the trip. Their service was friendly and answered my questions about possible options to get. I went with the jerk ribs rice & peas cabbage and a side of plantains. The only thing that was left were the bones. Sure enough some of that sauce was on my shirt. If you pick up the ribs with your hands just be ready to catch them with your plate. They fall off the bone type of ribs. There was some bbq sauce but blended well with the season. The cabbage was seasoned and tasted freshly cooked. Let's talk about the plantains. Perfectly cut and cooked. I can't even get that can of plantain quality in a Spanish restaurant. Best I have had. They do have a lunch special and plenty of side options. My only regret is not trying their juice. Next time I am trying the jerk chicken and stew.“

“It’s always service with a smile and the food is OUTSTANDING. From the jerk chicken and ribs to the curry chicken. The Mac and cheese is so good it made me cry a little! But seriously, this lil mom’s and pops place is the best. I discovered it by chance and it hasn’t not disappointed yet. Thanks for the good food!“

“I am so glad I took a chance in placing an order with this restaurant. I wanted turkey wings but they were out so I ordered the salmon. The salmon came over a bed of jambalaya rice. When I tell you the salmon was seasoned perfectly with the perfect crisp just the way I like it. I ordered macaroni and cheese as my 1 side. The amount of macaroni and cheese was plentiful. Really good portion sizes. I could not finish the macaroni and cheese by myself. I just pray the next time I order I'm just as satisfied. I will be ordering again and I look forward to writing the next review.“

“Thank you so much for catering our June 2nd wedding!! You fed our 100 guests, and EVERYTHING tasted perfect. You made the process so smooth and simple. The food was plentiful and delicious. When unexpected changes happened on our end, you had no problem with changing the wedding date mid-stream. I HIGHLY recommend your business for large group catering and will certainly visit your restaurant. Thank you!!“

“great flavorful food with great portions the Jamaican me crazy was my first meal tonight and I'm going back for more I'm big on texture and everything was great thank you for helping me transition to healthier eating“

“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.“

“I am so glad I found this gem!! I just moved to Atlanta from Boston (where there’s Haitian food everywhere) so I was little bummed out that there aren’t really Haitian spots out here. But my girlfriend found this place on IG and sent it my way. I ordered online and got the griot plate which comes with the diri kole (rice and beans) and the banan peze (fried plantains) with a side of salad and pikliz. Also ordered a side of the j*** chicken pasta which came with some delicious bread, my order also came with a lemonade and it was one of the best lemonade I ever had. EVERYTHING was delicious the griot was cooked very well still nice and tender people tend to overcook griot but this here was perfect! Portion is great! It’s a 10/10 for me and will not mind making that 30+ minute drive in Atlanta traffic to get it.My only suggestion would be to give the sauce on the side as opposed to putting it on the rice and having Dressing for the salad.Thank you Ted for a great meal, you definitely have a frequent customer now.“

“This restaurant and the staff/owner Seadeep, and Ammar are a BLESSING to Clarkston! There are deep needs they are meeting not just physically through food but spiritually with the gospel of Jesus Christ!! We had an amazing time and are so deeply encouraged by both of them!“

“authentic ethnic African dishes, very fulfilling.“

“This was my first time visiting, and I was pleasantly impressed from the moment I walked up. Although it’s not a dine in it’s very welcoming. You place your order at the window and there is an covered outside eating area. I arrived about an hour before closing, and unlike many restaurants where options become limited near the end of the day, they still had a great selection of sides and entrées available. That immediately made a positive impression on me.

I ordered a veggie plate with black-eyed peas, cornbread dressing, and potato salad, along with an extra side of broccoli casserole. Every single item was delicious. The cornbread dressing was moist and seasoned perfectly. The potato salad was absolutely on point something that many places don’t quite get right, but they definitely did. The broccoli casserole was perfectly baked, flavorful, and a great addition to the meal.

What really put the icing on the cake was the customer service. The owner was personable, friendly, and approachable, which added to the overall experience. As someone who truly appreciates both quality food and excellent customer service, I left very satisfied. I don’t have any photos because I was too busy eating.

Overall, this was a wonderful experience with great food, outstanding service, and a welcoming atmosphere. I would definitely recommend this restaurant and look forward to visiting again in the near future.“

“Great food today. Vegetables and meat loaf. I especially enjoyed the sweet potatoes, perfectly cooked and nicely sweet. The greens and meatloaf were outstanding as well. I am glad I chose Donnie's County Cooking for lunch. Did I mention the reasonable price!“
