The Mac & Cheese was flavorless, absolutely bland. My Nubian Tenders were so over cooked they were almost inedible and SUPER salty. I had to throw away the platter.

I was visiting from Connecticut. When I tell you this food was bussing. I’m thinking about driving back down there with my friends. Everything was amazing. My son who eats nothing was mad I didn’t get more Mac.

The food is utterly disgusting. The max and cheese didn’t have cheese in it. It was more noodles than cheese. The pepper steak and turkey wing lacked seasoning. The only thing good was the yams. I honestly want a refund. I came in 05/13/2023 around 6pm. Being from down south this was not good at all. NEVER would I eat here again.

This was absolutely unacceptable. For a hefty price, I got dry Mac and cheese, unseasoned dry fried chicken and unseasoned collards. The rice and gravy was terrible. Cheap, parboiled Uncle ben’s style rice with watery, again, unseasoned gravy. Their theme. IMO. This was the worst soul food experience and I was very offended at the cost. I do not have a problem paying for taste but i don’t feel like they cared about cooking quality food that day.

Thoughtful Reviews
I was looking for a restaurant to grab dinner before attending a graduation ceremony at the nearby Cure Arena and I came across this spot. They serve breakfast, lunch and dinner and have an extensive menu of entrée, sandwich, sides and dessert soul food options (many of which have creative names) that are all full of flavor. The prices are reasonable, portions are generous and they provide fast, friendly service . The restaurant has a warm and homey décor and the counter staff was friendly. Parking is on the street.

Wonderful establishment, relaxed vibes, great customer service, and the food was absolutely delicious! The best fish and grits in town. My husband enjoyed a game of chess with the owner and afterwards, devoured the ribs! BRB

If I could give no stars I would . Servers are ghetto and look dirty. There were roaches on the counter and food was tasteless. Don’t go here. Don’t purchase food here you will waste your money.
