I ordered the whiting dinner with mac and cheese and yams. The fish was fresh and flavorful, the yams were delicious, and the mac and cheese had the perfect balance of creamy and cheesy without being too heavy.

Easy to find. Great food. Don't 😴 on this spot. If you didn't know. Now you know.
Ordered 2 full meals plus additional sides in person on Juneteenth and recieved our food within 20 minutes which was great especially because they were busy! The people working are very kind. My partner and I are so excited to have found a soul food spot in this area that is actually very delicious and not too expensive. First Impression gave us lots of food for what we paid! We will definitely be back and grateful to have this business in our area

First Impression offers local soul food with exceptional customer service at reasonable prices. The restaurant serves delicious dishes, including crabcake, chicken wings, mac and cheese, collard greens, and traditional comfort food options like smothered pork chops. The fried catfish platter is cooked to perfection, freshly breaded and fried to order, making it a standout dish. The food is prepared quickly, and the service is superb, with very clean food preparation areas. Customers praise the friendly staff and delicious, well-seasoned meals, including the fish sandwich, shrimp basket, mac and cheese, and yams. However, some customers have experienced issues with overcooked or tough fried fish on rare occasions. Overall, First Impression provides a comforting and satisfying dining experience.
