This place has excellent service and down home cooking. The Soulfood wrap with extra yams is top notch, so much flavor. The meatloaf tastes like your mom made it, tender and saucy. I like it and the pork chop smothered in gravy, but you can get it without. The collards are exceptional. The corn bread is soft with a slight crust and just a little sweet. And the banana pudding is so luxurious and just the right amount of sweetness.
I had the opportunity to meet Jessica-Ann (owner) when my parents were closing their catering business a few years back- right off the bat I made a mental note that I had to get over here to try the food- between her warm demeanor and contagiously bubbly personality… I knew the food would be good. Unfortunately, life happened and I was delayed but I’m so glad I finally made it over here.
The storefront was very clean and well put together. The menu is straight forward...

Simply delicious! The fried chicken was outstanding and the peach cobbler was the best I've ever had. Served it at Thanksgiving to a group of 15 people and everybody was raving about it. The owner definitely takes great care in making sure her customers enjoy their experience. Will be ordering again!
