Thomasena's Restaurant and Catering Hall remains a popular destination for soul food lovers, known for dishes like mac & cheese, collard greens, yams, and turkey wings, which continue to receive high praise. Customers often mention the quality and generous portions of the meals. The basa, green beans, and mac and cheese platter are particularly missed by regulars. The new location is clean and inviting, with a modern touch like self-ordering kiosks that make ordering quick and easy. The atmosphere includes R&B and oldies music, creating a warm, nostalgic vibe. Staff members are friendly and greet customers upon arrival. The owner is approachable and recently introduced a new fish dish sample, which was well received. The turkey wings remain a favorite, especially when sticky, and the overall flavor and quality are consistent with the restaurant’s past. Some customers have suggested improving air conditioning and installing industrial fans to better accommodate both staff and guests. Overall, Thomasena's continues to be appreciated for its delicious soul food and welcoming environment.
