I went today in light of Black History Month. Not being around the area and wanting some GOOODDD FOOD!! Baby they didn’t disappoint!! Catfish was fried hard, fresh and well seasoned. The baked Mac and cheese had these smoked cheese taste!! It’s truly is amazing and definitely will be returning!!This is definitely a family owned joint and they live up to just that!!

I got the short ribs with cabbage mix with greens. Chilli beans with cornbread and Kool aid. The short ribs was just fried bones. The chili beans had no meat and seem just to be ranch style beans with chili flavoring added. The cabbage mix with greens was bland no taste. The Kool aid was sugar water. I spent $19.97 and wasted my money. I went ate at Wendy's afterwards because I left 60% on the table. I was really upset about the short ribs that was just bones dipped in batter. I'm not going back never, try at your own risk. That is not soul food!!!!

I can't believe they have been I business so long the worst food I've ever had from any restaurant. I ordered chicken spaghetti took 2 bites and I couldn't force myself to take a 3rd. My sides were chili beans and cabbage greens. The chili beans tasted like ranch style beans with alit of chili powder and no meat. The kool-aid was red but I couldn't tell what flavor it was because it tasted like sugar water. After reading previous reviews most people feel the same way I do. Places like this make it hard to support small businesses. DO NOT I REPEAT DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME OR MOST OF ALL YOUR MONEY. I LEFT 95% OF THE MEAL ON THE TABLE.

I would probably go back for the greens but everything else was very bland. The oxtails were slimy and bland, and the fried chicken had no flavor. Hot sauce is not seasoning but it was the only way to get it down but made it kinda too salty like they season with salt. The tables were dirty and the floors. Made me scared the kitchen wasn’t cleaned either.

Vegetarian options: Didn’t use pork in greens.

happy blogger

The food was exactly what I expected, Delicious!! The cook was also the person that brought my food out to the table. She was a very sweet lady. I had pig feet, cabbage/ greens mix, and sweet potatoes. It was the best cabbage/greens I’ve had. Can’t wait to come back.
