I’m not sure who is back there cooking today but this food is nasty. The mashed potatoes are hard and lumpy. And what’s supposed to be “pepper steak and rice” is POT ROAST and rice. The string beans are okay.

I recently had the pleasure of experiencing authentic Chicago food on the run, and let me tell you, it was like a taste of home. Every bite reminded me of the delicious meals my own grandma used to cook with love and care.

Just got this four piece of smoothers chicken with spicy mack and cheese, yam, roll and good greens. Chicken could’ve been better!!! The peach roll shouldn’t cost that much to taste just OK.

My first time going to this establishment. My husband and I order the greens,Mac and cheese yams,and peach cobbler . Everything was good but the greens were so SALTY!! I returned the greens and explained to the cashier that I couldn’t eat it because I suffered with high blood pressure. He went to returned them in the kitchen were the door was opened. A young lady comes out the kitchen and gives me a dirty look and goes back in the kitchen and closes the door to the kitchen. Smh I just spent $56 dollars at this establishment and the rudeness. I will not tolerate. I told the cashier to give me a Mac and cheese and instead. To the owner I support black business but the rudeness should not be tolerate at any place of business. And customers shouldn’t wait 30mins and another customers walk in and get served before them. Just not right.

I l have been looking forward to trying the food here. I ordered thru uber eats but I guess I should’ve went to dine in. I ordered the fried salmon with seafood Mac , sweet potatoes and green beans. I received a tiny piece of salmon and my sweet potatoes taste like it was out of a can instead of fresh. Also the Mac didn’t taste fresh, more like it was microwaved from the previous day. My husband ordered the beef short ribs and those were fatty with mostly vegetables and barely any meat. We paid $80 and got baby portions for our money. I gave 3 stars since the food didn’t taste bad.
