Food wasn't very good, no cheese in Mac Cheese, they need to get better cooks. The place needs to be upgraded and better

Just a magic little spot. Great food and such a friendly atmosphere. Visiting from the UK we didn't know everything on the menu, but the man behind the counter helped us choose as he chatted gently with the regulars. The food was filling and full of flavour. If I lived nearby, I'd go every day!Kid-friendliness: Went with our 1yr old and were greeted with joy and treated well.

Fantastic food and service! Went in for 4 take out dinners in the early afternoon. The lovely server gave my son a delicious homemade lemonade as we waited. Tbe fried chicken is delicious! I love the mac and cheese, and the beans with ham are sweet perfection. The cornbread is moist and flavorful. I highly recommend!

Been going here for over 20 years. Best food in the neighborhood, warm family run environment and the best people too. Love Mitchell's!

One of the best places to eat in the neighborhood. The fried chicken is crispy and flavorful, and the Mac and cheese and potato salad are perfection. Also you can’t beat the prices and the cozy diner vibes

Very nice, cosy, little restaurant where the soul food is delicious!!! I was 25 years ago in New York and wanted to taste the corn bread and fried chicken again. We couldn't have made a better choice with Mitchell's soul food!!! The flavours are very good, the atmosphere very relaxed, the restaurant small and simple but nicely decorated. But above all the 'mama' was very friendly. We loved it and definitely will go back!

Hello all!! Now this is a cute little spot and it really does it for the culture! The food was delicious, and served HOTT (cooked fresh), not too many places to sit and the one waitress they have is very firm and not one to have too much patience, you better know what you want. Also, they ONLY TAKES CASH!!!! Mr.Mitchell is not too friendly either….I guess that’s him who takes the payments but I guess you can say he’s just an older man who don’t play games or has to be friendly he just want the business. Overall, enjoyed the food and the atmosphere. Would go back again!

They have very good hospitality, the tea was good, beef ribs was good, fried whiting were great. They play good music, clean restrooms although not to spacious. I would recommend people to eat here. Great Job to Mitchell’s restaurant and staff.

We stopped here for a quick lunch while biking and had a great meal. The chicken was tender, the sauce was homemade, and our favorite side was the stewed tomatoes and okra. Besides the food, my favorite part of the experience was the great advice posted all over the walls. Mitchell’s is part diner and part art museum with its well-curated and thought-provoking walls. We’ll definitely come back.

Nice, Laid-back and not pretentious place to eat. The mashed yams, Mac n cheese, and corn bread are really tasty. The baked fish was good. They were nice and when we had questions about ingredients, they were cool. And the prices are very reasonable.
