best food i had in Chicago hands down ...delicious food generous serving you cant eat it all in one sitting...friendly staff....very affordable definitely will visit again and again before I leave...
While visiting from Atlanta for my birthday. After placing order and waiting 45mins once the food came, with no utensils then was told they was out of collard greens was disappointing. When in Chicago again will give it another try.
The food was great had to wait a little bit for it but it was worth it only thing they didn't tell me they sold out of my fried pickles and I had to find out by going back into the restaurant after I left good thing I didn't get to far.
