My mom took me here and it is the Best soul food I have ever had. I had smothered turkey wings with cabbage/collards greens mix and Mac and cheese. I also had corn bread it was amazing. My husband had 3 wing plate with Mac and cheese and fries he enjoyed his food as well. The Mac and cheese was the best he said. The customer service is amazing! With good food comes patience and the food is well worth the wait!!
Food was decent. Not being from that city we ordered several plates to take back home. Traveled to Lexington NC just to try JJ's Mama Soul food. Spent about $230 or so. If they cut back on using a ton of rosemary everything would be great! From what I could see it's brown skin owned and operated. Love that! Will definitely try it out again. And I will simply ask not to use rosemary if they can handle that.

This is a very comfortable spot. The lobby felt like home. I came for the ribs and they did not disappoint. Turns out the macaroni and cheese is the best in the world.
This is a wonderful place, I just love it! This is my 100% absolute favorite restaurant.

I’ve been here 2-3 times with the latest around Feb 1, 2025. This place has some of the best soul food that I’ve had in a restaurant in a very long time. Many claim to have great soul food but don’t come close to JJs. I come from a family of amazing cooks so don’t hesitate. They also give very nice portions. I gave the atmosphere an 4 only because I got my food to go so I didn’t go into the dining area. It was very clean though.

Came here last night with my brother. He wanted me to taste the amazing food. I ordered the fried chicken(white with a thigh), mac & cheese, pinto beans, and collard greens. The food was amazing. The chicken was crispy, well seasoned and juicy to the bone. The pinto’s were great, the collards were some of the best I’ve ever had. They had an awesome flavor and that pot licker juice I kept dipping my bread in. But the star was the Mac & Cheese. It was creamy, seasoned, and cheesy. Sooooo good. The service was a little slow but we got there an 1 1/2 hrs. before closing so that may have been a the reason. I would highly recommend this place.
