Man, all I can say is I tasted heaven today!! Hands down the BEST SOUL FOOD I've ever tasted not even my 10 years living in Georgia can compare. We literally stumbled upon this hidden gym, which 9 out of 10 are usually the BEST spots!
Kudos to staff but hands down to the chef #yummyinmytummy.
We had the amazing oxtail, the finger licking wings and the can't put down chicken & waffles. The cabbage and yam took it to a whole other level too!

Janelle was the best host ever. The food was o.k. The fried chicken was good, collards just a little too salty, Mac & Cheese good. Overall I would come back. Janelle I want some potato salad when I come back …lol

This was my first time eating at Madre & Soulfood Cafe. I must say the food is so good!!! Everything was seasoned to taste and their candy yams was mouth watering. We were giving blueberry sweetbread and lord the way my taste buds just melted. It was so damn good I wanted to slap somebody lol. The food is absolutely delicious! The staff was very nice and friendly and it was a great atmosphere to dine-in. The prices were really good. I strongly advise everyone to please go and get you some of that good ole Soulfood!!!

The food is delicious and the service was awesome. I had the smothered pork chops, string beans, and potato salad, every bite was delicious and the pork chops were so tender. Try the food you won't be disappointed!

Food was delicious. I did not give 5 ⭐️ because when I asked if cornbread was included the response was if you dine in. I was unsatisfied with that part. Service was good. I even found parking. I will be back to dine in for the cornbread.
