The food was outstanding!!! The oxtails over rice and gravy was seasoned to perfection. The greens tasted like they were cooked by somebody grandma and the cornbread muffins ain't no Jiffy Mix. The Mac-n-Cheese delicious! I normally can drive and eat but that was not possible with this meal. The restaurant looks beat down but the food superior soul food. I will definitely be going back soon!
The first time I went to this place back in 2006, I got sick! When I went in there about 5 days ago, I tried the catfish plate, and it was pretty good, salty, but it was still good. The cornbread was dry. The greens were good but very salty. The macaroni looked like it was colored and tasted strange, like chicken stock, not cheese. I guess they are trying a healthier recipe. I didn't try any desserts. They weren't friendly and welcoming, I was the only customer in line, so they just haven't bothered with being welcoming other than to say "welcome" without trying to make eye contact or smile. Try the food, see if you like it. Don't go in there with dietary restrictions! The greens have meat. Parking lot is large, but rough!
The food is always delicious, the staff are super friendly, and the atmosphere is always lively.
My favorite dish is the Fried Jerk Chicken breast served over their homemade biscuit, topped with yummy oxtail gravy. That's the special on occasions , FYI. The salad with cashews is a must. And I can't forget the dishes here ' is to die for.
