I got the catfish dinner w greens n cajun rice, it was delicious. My daughter got the 4 wing dinner w mac n cheese n fries. Also a hit. Lets not talk about the jerk alfredo. Good n spicy.We cam after church, we ate then passed out. Will def be back. I need a good soul food place in my life!!! The only thing I didn't care for was all the foot traffic. The cajun rice had giardiniera which is different but overall decent food

Ordered online. Went to pick up, the guy at the register discussed cornbread and the size and cost to only let me down and say there is none. Food was not ready because “gravy had to thicken”. I ordered chicken and shrimp stir fry…it’s like soup! It’s huge pieces of chicken and jumbo shrimp SWIMMING in gravy, jerk sauce, HUGE raw crispy bell peppers, and get this gardinera! No onions, carrots, veggies, they dumped hot oeppers for an Italian beef in the stir fry soup!!! This is a struggle meal. I paid 27 DOLLARS for soup! And the amount of sodium. My GOD! Co worker ordered smothered chicken…it’s over cooked wings from Sharks dumped in turkey gravy. The pictures don’t lie. You all should be ashamed and need to do better. Money is hard earned and hard to come by. Make suitable and appropriate meals. You all should stick to basic babas type food. Burgers, dogs, chicken, pizza puff, can pop.

I live close to this place, I saw it on the Black Foodies, I was like wow a new restaurant. Last week I decided to check it out, I walked in place my order for chicken wings, mac & cheese and greens, it was a 15-20min wait. The wings were good but very small, mac & cheese was decent and the green had the vinegar and sweet taste which was fine, they didn't have the sweet potatoes cornbread that was disappointing. What I really didn't like while sitting there waiting on my food, was all the people and children going in and out of the kitchen area. One came out eating another was pulling her braid while on her phone, it started looking a little ghetto. Why can't they bring the groceries for the restaurant to the rear or side of the building? I felt why is sooo many people walking back there. This place is VERY small, I know what it looks like behind the black curtain, I've seem 5-6 businesses come and go from this location since 2015 and non lasted more than a year. I want to support this black own business. But all that traffic walking around back there is not a good look in my opinion. If there not Cooking they shouldn't be back there, it's a sanitation issue for me. The lady who took my order was very pleasant and even offered me a drink. I will probably be back and hopefully not see that type of activity with people coming and going from the kitchen area. Sorry for the long post.

I got the jerk chicken Alfredo. When I say disgusting chileeee DISGUSTING. Omg , taste like throw up. Literally had TWO pieces of chicken in there & some macaroni type of noodles. I am appalled & I feel disrespected. Waste of money ‼️‼️‼️

Recommended dishes: Smothered Turkey Chop Dinner
Heard a lot of good about the food,so paid a vist ordered the greens that were vinegary and, sweet and salty ( not a good combination)smothered turkey that was dry and over salted and yams that was soupie, Overall I think it would been a better experience if the seasoning was toned down,let's face it everyone has different taste buds. Couldn't eat that food.?

I'm out this way and rolled up on this spot and I think I found a winner here. I got the Smothered Turkey Chops with mac n cheese and greens 9.3. First off, the smothered turkey chops were phenomenal no complaints from me as I got 3 decent size chops cover in that gravy was pressure. The mac n cheese was cool nothing crazy but solid thou 8.4 and the same of the greens as well 8.4...just well prepared and didn't take away from the overall meal. I washed this down with some of their Kool-Aid ngl this was pure crack I which they served this in a larger cup...they are making these like I was at the crib or something 9.6. Overall customer service was ok bro taking orders and getting those orders out not mad at it...it's a bit of a wait to be prepared 9.3.
