I had the most incredible dining experience at Josephine’s restaurant! The food was absolutely delicious! every dish was perfectly prepared and beautifully presented. Our server was attentive, knowledgeable, and made excellent recommendations. The atmosphere was elegant yet comfortable. I can't wait to come back to Chicago and try more items from their menu. Definitely a new favorite spot!!!!!

Ps: Wanna say thank you to Katrena Sampract, personally because I left my glasses at her establishment And remind you I Live 7 hours away from her establishment and I called and ask if I had left my glasses there and this wonderful lady told me yes. Unfortunately I stay so far away this beautiful soul said no problem and mail them to me…

Thank you so much Katrena 💙!!!!

Katrena is making waves with her new choice of menu options and they are Amazing. If you haven’t been I️ suggest you get there. I️ tried do b many things from the tomato basil soup, squash soup that was both savory and sweet, shrimp tacos on point, the salmon in the salmon and wild rice was cooked to perfection, the kale salad AHMAZINGGGG, and she will make you fall in love with Quinoa with her Quinoa salad🫶🏼🫶🏼🫶🏼🫶🏼. I’m going back for the Gumbo Grits. I️ can’t wait.

I grew up in Chicago and this was one of my favorite restaurants in Chi-Town! It was Aretha Franklin's favorite too!

Would have loved to try this place out, but it's 8:30am and your business supposed to open @6am but you are not open! This is why I have a problem supporting black owned/black run businesses because of their lack of organization! I mean you're only open for 3 days a week! Unacceptable!

Last night after getting off work from working a very busy night as a server I went to experience a late night soul brunch, the French toast, gumbo, and the salmon croquettes were amazing. My server Demont was amazing and the chef was kind and sweet now I know why her food is so good.

That place needs to be aired out. How do you rent out to people with that place smelling like that ?
