We come down for lunch whenever we are in the area. They are known for the gumbo which is delicious, but we have never had a bad meal. Mac n cheese, greens, yams, were all great. Our friend liked the ribs. The owner Mike is a great guy as well.

The Man, The Myth, The Legend…. Chef Mike absolutely tearing it up in the kitchen. Speaking with him about his history in the catering world and having a brick and mortar business was nothing short of the most welcoming conversation I’ve ever had with the Chef himself. Food was killer! I tried the ribs, Mac and cheese, yams, and the gumbo. All were phenomenal!! I’m extremely judgmental when it comes to flavor and perfection when it comes to soul food, BBQ and I’ll definitely make this a permanent stop when I’m in Pittsburgh. Take the ride to his business and show him the same love you’ll get from him!!

First - the food. I’ve been about four times now and everything has been delicious, but the gumbo is without exaggeration one of the best things I’ve ever tasted. The proportions of contents and blend of spices have been perfected.The desserts are also homemade and top notch, worth every penny and then some.On top of the very reasonably priced, exquisite food, the owner is always a genuine pleasure to interact with. This is just the best possible example of what a community business should be.Come eat or grab some food from here and I’m certain you’ll be very happy you did!

I had the most wonderful experience. I called 2 weeks prior to needing our apartments communities holiday party! From the initial phone call to the day of the party was great. They made the whole process a breeze, while keeping in touch throughout the 2 weeks! They accommodated a service for 80 people, delivered the food right when they said they would while delivering it nice and hot in food warmers. They set everything up and went over every dish with me to ensure the order was complete and correct! My residents all loved the food and encouraged me to have them cater again next year! Thanks again for the wonderful experience and keep on cooking on!
What an absolute gem. Wanted to order everything, will be

I swept in to grab some takeout gumbo for my girlfriend and I and truly enjoyed my plate. I know there's not a lot of gumbo options in the city but this was exactly what I was craving and I could have it again once a month or more. Sometime, I'd like to have a sit down experience there because the chef was very friendly with me, but the hours make it a bit rough for that. I'd recommend anyone try it and I'll be back again soon, especially as it gets colder!

I ate here yesterday !!! and could'nt get past the GUMBO. And that cornbread on the side, just made me do a MAMBO. Soon I looked down in dread as I lowered my head to see the bowl, empty,below. The quick thinker I am, to get out this jam, I just ordered four more to go! ( with peach cobbler and carrot cake for dessert).
Loved it
