They charge a lot of money but their food portions are definitely unfairly small smh!

Nellie's House of Soul offers amazing comfort food with bold flavors. The staff is welcoming, and the atmosphere is warm and cozy. A fantastic spot for a delicious, soul-satisfying meal!

I was honestly so excited, to try Nellie's based on some of the reviews; however I was unfortunately disappointed. The gravy, was very bland, and the yams tasted as if they were from out of a can. The oxtails had very very little meat, and had nothing but fat on them, making it inedible. Needless to say, I was very disappointed and will not be returning anytime soon. My sisters bbq chicken which was just chicken, with bbq sauce drizzled on it; it was just as disappointing.

Hello! These are the ladies from Albany! The food is absolutely delicious! Everything is season just right. Thank you to the owner & the young lady serving us. I will spread the word. We will be back in April.

When I first ate at this place, it was great. I mean Candy yams were great but lately I’m not sure what’s going on. The mac & cheese was scorch. It was just shells and cheese. The yams tasted as if they were cut up canned Mixture she put pineapples in it to sweeten it up, but you could tell that it was fresh as far as the Pepper, steak and rice. It was OK could’ve been better, but it was OK
she made sure that she scraped out just enough to have one more plate full left. Other than that I just was supporting a black owned business it was great when I first ate there going back to it was not sorry to say it, but it was not. I think they could just do a little bit more better a little bit more professional.

Food was spectacular. Definitely gotta come back. I got bbq ribs w/ baked Mac, yams, and some potato salad all for 25 bucks. Should’ve taken a picture but it got housed

The food as far as taste was good for the most part. However to pay 18$ for a container load with mainly rice… and one turkey wing, when that dinner was ordered specifically… even further, my dinner selection today was because I did not want to cook after working a 24 hour shift because I am tired, and TO SUPPORT BLACK OWNERS even more! I have call the restaurant 3 times, to rectify my order, only to be bear “this number is not in service.” They just lost a customer that paid 75$ for food! #support …tho.

I’ve been getting delivery from them for about a year now. I’m from the south so I’m super biased. Only call them when I don’t wanna cook. They never miss.. and on the rare occasions that you order late and they’re out… they call you. Highly recommended. I’d post a picture but we smash immediately lol
