Mookey's Beans & Greens is a hidden gem serving home-cooked meals. Their smothered pork chops are tender and delicious, with the gravy receiving particular praise. The northern beans and greens are off the chain, while the turkey and dressing, mac and cheese, blackeyed peas, and cornbread are also noteworthy, giving customers a taste reminiscent of North Carolina. The peach cobbler remains a standout dessert. The catfish with mac and sweet potatoes makes for a tasty combo. It is recommended to arrive early for the best lemon cake, as it can become dry later in the day. Though service can leave something to be desired and prices may be a bit higher due to inflation, the overall dining experience is solid, and many recommend trying everything for yourself. The restaurant is known for consistent, hot, and fresh food, especially the smothered pork chops. Customers appreciate the staff's effort to provide good customer service, even though the facility is small and does not have a waiting area. Recent reviews highlight the quality of the Mac and cheese, red beans and rice, and candied yams, though some find the collard greens too bitter and the cornbread too salty and dry. The restaurant now mainly offers carry-out, which can be pricey, but the food remains flavorful and satisfying.
