Soul Food Restaurants near Bowie, MD

“Sadly I went to try out this establishment today and was welcome with flies flying around all the food. Not a good experience when you first walk into the door. Unfortunately because of all the flies that was flying and landing on the food that you service people turned me completely off. Maybe I will try this place again and hopefully next time they won't have flies flying around all the food“

“I had a rare taste for a pork chop. I googled for pork chops near me. I had never heard of the restaurant. I just ordered a pork chop sandwich. They gave me 2 pork chops nice size, seasoned well with buttery toast. They were delicious, I could only eat one because of the size but will definitely eat the other tomorrow. I will definitely be going back and trying other things.“

“This place was recommended and I am so glad we tried it. Healthy food. So many options. I ordered the Jerk Mango Salad. I didn’t change a thing and wouldn’t. Perfect kick without being too spicy. Mango salsa was the best I’ve had. We also ordered the BBQ bowl. I wouldn’t change a thing in it. Try the Red Rice. It’s really good. Staff was quick, explained the menu and ordering process and also offered a taste of you weren’t sure you’d like something. 10/10. I’ll be back again.“

“Mac and cheese was a solid effort. Fried whiting was high-quality — the breading was saltier than I like, but I’m a pretty low-salt guy.

The side of greens were amazing — the most complex, thought-through greens I can ever remember having. I saw ham, onions, and red bell pepper brightening a pile that was juicy while impossibly also light and airy. This is the Ph.D of greens!“

“It was such an amazing experience!!! Our waiter Jordan was amazing and so kind! My fiancé and I went for dinner on a Monday night and absolutely loved the food. We got the seafood eggrolls, wings, and stuffed shrimp as appetizers. I got the jambalaya pasta and my fiancé got. Southern oxtails 10/10!“

“I enjoyed the quick service. The customer was outstanding!!! OMG the food was so great! I felt like it was homemade!!!
And ordered the turkey wings, it comes on a bed of rice and 2 sides. I chose the collard greens & the yellow potato salad. Yummy!!! Thanks so much. Price was reasonable. You go to a fast food restaurant and spend $15?on a meal that is full of processed ingredients. BUT GOD! Southern blues has great portion sizes and the corn bread is great too. I love it here!!🌹🌹🥰🌹🥰🌹🥰🌹“

“We ordered catering pans from here for 4th of July 2025. Everything was excellent. The turkey wings and gravy are so good. Yams, green beans macaroni and cheese were also delicious. I usually cook myself but needed a break this holiday. All of the food was seasoned well. Not salty just well seasoned and flavorful. Customer service was great and they were very accommodating with my large order. We will definitely frequent this business again.“

“The whiting was fried to perfection“

“Great variety’s of good food! Great drinks“

I can't wait to try the fish. Ordered via uber eats. Scrapple and bacon was tasty. I will order again.?????“

“When I first moved to Capitol Heights, I assumed that I would have to travel far for vegetarian/vegan food or make it myself. And how surprised was I that there was a vegan restaurant down the road! Each day the menu changes, so you could have a favorite every day of the week. And the portions! You can make SEVERAL meals out of one dinner. Is it cheap? NOPE! But something that's good for your body AND soul shouldn't be.“

“Plenty of options available and food is always amazing. Yes, prices have increased but what restaurant or business hasn’t. Our people unfortunately complain about everything and champion nothing. It’s annoying. Anyhow, I had a great time per usual! Going to the Lanham location soon!“

“First time at Keith and Sons and my eyes were pleasantly pleased. The food looked neat, delicious and plentiful. I ordered a rib dinner with greens and potato salad. My husband ordered jerk chicken, rice and string beans. It was enough food on each plate to feed 2. We sat in the restaurant and ate and the food was scrumptious. The seating is minimal, but most people preferred their food and left. I highly recommend this restaurant!“
