At Ethel’s Snack Shack, my lunch experience surpassed expectations. The food, expertly crafted to order, was a delightful blend of flavors that left my taste buds thoroughly satisfied. The staff's warm greeting and prompt order-taking added to the inviting atmosphere.The camaraderie among patrons created a welcoming vibe, making me feel right at home. As I savored my meal, the attentive service continued with a timely delivery of piping-hot dishes within a mere 10 minutes. The repeated inquiries about my needs demonstrated a level of customer care that didn't go unnoticed.A standout feature was the thoughtful disposal service – rather than searching for a waste bin, leaving the tray on the table for the staff to handle exemplified their commitment to customer convenience and service excellence.While seating was ample, it's worth noting that peak lunch hours might lead to limited availability. Nevertheless, the overall experience at Ethel’s Snack Shack is a testament to their commitment to providing a great, hot lunch. Do keep in mind that while certain menu items are available daily, the added variety on select days adds an exciting touch to your dining options. A definite recommendation for those seeking a superb dining experience in the area.

Best ribs I had in my life! This place does authentic Louisiana food right. Why go eat fast food when you can customize a real hearty meal to your liking. The price is very reasonable and quality is fantastic. Can't recommend coming here enough. Staff was friendly service was great!

It had been years since I'd visited Ethel's, to my surprise they actually have the same red-beans and rice recipe. Enjoyed the lunch

After a couple of visits, they knew me by name which is awesome. The A/C need to be fixed but the service is good and the food is good. Great soul food spot. I don't normally eat other people's cornbread dressing, except my mom's, because even in the South not everybody knows how to make a really good cornbread dressing, but I have to say their cornbread dressing is really, really good.

I hadn't had the pleasure of eating from Ethels' in many years. I had the smothered pork chops with rice and gravy which were super tender and well seasoned. The candied yams and corn bread were delicious compliments to my meal. I will definitely return soon!
