I ordered the smothered chicken with cabbage and sweet potatoes, or were they yams? The chicken was as I hoped for, fall off the bone tender and delicious! The most pleasant surprise was how good my veggies were. Could not believe how good they were. Best sides ever. It was our first time there for my husband and I. We were a bit taken back by the casualness of the joint or dive. Now that I know what to expect, I would not have a problem going back. Food was that good! read more

Customer service: None. No smiles. Dine In: Served out of to go containers. Food: fried chicken good (leg) until grandson bite into a bloody undercooked thigh (2 pieces and both were under cooked). Smothered Turkey wings/dressing not hot. (Gravy salty). Collards bland, other than that yams, Mac and cheese were good. Ask for ice with bottled beverage not available. Will not return. Note: The locals that were there waiting for food said they liked food, but I will not return or recommend. read more

Place was a little dirty and server wasn't too too friendly but food was not too bad.

I love to support black businesses and put my money into them but this time, this is a HUGE Never Again! Where do I even begin??? I can't even review the food for this place because the wait is ridiculous. I understand the "cooked to order" concept, but they must have to hunt the chicken, catch the chicken, kill it, clean it and then cook it. It's literally ridiculous how long it takes. Are they cooking with a toaster oven or something?? It's very small so place your order and go back to car (if you even bother ordering from here.). And don't even think about standing at the counter - they have signs and hate it when you do. Do not let TikTok trick you into coming here. Oh and let me also mention that they don't have even HALF the stuff they listed on the menu. Let me tell you the most RIDICULOUS part: a two piece fish is them taking one tilapia filet and breaking it in half. I.KID.YOU.NOT. ****** Update after getting my order an hour and 10 minutes later***** This food is gross. The baked chicken is salty - way too salty in fact. I ordered a veggie plate for my husband: mashed potatoes (unseasoned and no gravy), pinto beans (hard and crunchy), sweet potatoes (good and seasoned well) and macaroni and cheese (gross!). I had the baked chicken (too salty), black eyed peas (no seasoning and some of the peas were hard), mac and cheese (gross. It's tasted rushed and had the funky cheese taste. Almost as if someone said let me just put some cheese in here). *Note: I took one scoop of everything out of my box just in case I didn't like it yet. Yup, didn't like it. This place is not going to last long at all with this type of service and piss-poor quality food. read more

I placed my on line order for two pork chop dinner to take to my Sorority sister and her husband. The can't out correct and the food looked amazing. She told me to make sure to get the yams as one of the sides. A special thank you to Tye! She held the door for me since I had so much to carry. I will be back with my husband to eat a great meal. read more

The food is ok but they never have sweet potato pie available. They also never answer the phone. It's frustrating.

Service is efficient and friendly. Food is fresh. It's made to order so it takes a minute to get your food. It's worth the wait. Highly recommend. read more

So, I came here on a whim to try out some soul food in my area. This was the closest place to me so I tried this restaurant. My experience was so-so here. Service was okay. I waited about 2 minutes before someone came out to take my order. The menu is pretty big but not too overwhelming. The wait for the food was around 10-12 minutes. And from the pictures it looked super good. However, the taste was definitely different. Side dishes lacked salt (to me) and the rice wasn't cooked all the way through. Cornbread was very dry and the Smothered turkey chop I ordered was pretty good. The plates are pretty expensive, but they do give you a lot. I do hope they do get a makeover inside the establishment since it's a bit all over the place, but nonetheless they are some nice people just tryna make some good food. This is my review, and I wish nothing but UP for them! read more

Came here when we hear Bany Jane's was closed - they have very accommodating hours - and wow so good! perfect soul/comfort food for me! Homemade Pies! On first come first serve basis sweet potato pie yum! yes is fabulous which is why it sells out. And the plates are huge - easily had enough to take to dad and my grown man son couldn't even eat all the ribs falling off the bone! I do love bone in Fried chicken - out of white meat I got dark and man so juicy and the collard greens yum! The ambiance - just a small diner - it's a family run place not a lot of room yet which we didn't need anyway but the cooking is fabulous! Enjoy! read more

I passed by here a couple weeks back and decided to stop in this past Sunday. There were a few people waiting and I talked to a regular since the restaurant opened she made suggestions which was everything on the smothered chicken plate. The corn muffin was fine rice cooked perfectly which was a plus chicken was a little over cooked for my liking and could have used more salt and the collards were just ok. Now for plate two I got this plate for my friend but of course I tried everything on it . The pork chops were good and still hot when I got to her house, the cabbage was good, the Mac and cheese looked like Kraft, but it did not taste like Kraft.It was nice and creamy and very flavorful I would definitely get it again the plate comes with 2 sides, I wanted Mac and cheese, but it was not ready when I placed my order, however; it was ready before I left so she gave me a cup which I appreciated. The dressing is a big no for me worst thing on both plates I would not order it again my friend agreed. We also had Carmel cake, but I forgot to take a picture. It was good as well. If you are in the area stop by and check them out. read more

Delicious Mac N'Cheese (great texture/consistency) and Yams (sweet and not overly liquidy). Fried chicken also tasted like it had been marinated well. I took my fiancée here after the staff flagged us down to come in and try it! Great tastes HERE! read more

We're waiting an hour and 25 mins for it food. I understand that this isn't a fast food restaurant but they are in definite need of process Improvement. read more

The food is always Mmmm...good! The service they're very polite. Sometimes Service takes a little longer due to the fact that they have so many customers and not enough employees. Family owned business looks like. Clean and welcoming I would recommend this for anyone who loves southern cooking. read more

Food was nothing special and for $20 a plate it should be. Staff was friendly though as well as patrons. Dining area was below average. Take it to go. read more

Loved the service and food; desserts are impeccable. Highly recommending to anyone looking for some soul food good for the soul.

I try to support black owned businesses but this one took the cake! I placed my order at 1:19pm with only 4 people in the lobby as I type this it is now 2:25pm one hour later and still no food?? I was told that the wait was 25 mins and I have been here over one hour yall. They have a sign that said food is made to order but baked chicken is not made to order. When I asked for a refund they said it's coming out now and 10 minutes later Im still here! Haven't even tried the food yet. I will have to give an update on that but I did notice that someone was bringing their plate back as I was leaving . Also nothing was offered for the inconvenience which made matters worse read more

The breading on the meat was so over salted it was very difficult to eat. Macaroni and cheese tasted like nothing ,even the cornbread tasted like it was from a mix and was undercooked and crumbling. could've gotten a better meal at KFC for a third of the price. read more

This was by far the worst soul food I've tasted in a while. The pork chop was fried black and full of grease. The catfish nuggets were over cooked and full of grease as well. Definitely will not be back. Total waste of $35. read more

I had the Salisbury steak and sides from here and it was good. There was a little wait, but food was good and I love to support black owned businesses. read more

Went here for lunch today with a friend. Enjoyed everything about it. Had the fried pork chops, "mash" potatoes (not the creamy type), string beans. The food was great! Ordered a slice of 5 different cakes. The caramel cake and the banana pudding cake are my favorite. Will definitely become a regular customer. read more

Ok, we are going to start out with the food. It was good and had plenty of flavor. I order catfish nuggets, yams, Mac and cheese, collard greens and Strawberry Cake. The collard greens had no flavor but everything else was good. Strawberry Cake was amazing! The ambiance of the place is the normal for grab and go. Sitting in with a family of 6 would not be accommodating. The service walking in was nice. **** I am going to warn you! DO NOT GO HERE IF YOU ARE HUNGRY!***** You will be hangry by the time you get your food! I waited over 1 hour and once I asked for my money back my order was now ready. They do have a sign saying the order may take a while. 30 minutes is reasonable and patient. 1 hour is beyond frustrating. I didn't order a big order, nor did I order something that takes that long to cook. To go order take priority over customers who are actually there! It was my first and last time. It sucks because there food is decent, but not good enough to wait for over and hour to get it. read more

This food was really tasty! I got the bbq chicken w Mac n cheese w yams. My bf got the fried chicken w cabbage and yams...everything was really good. They even fried his chicken fresh for him. The Mac n cheese was so good I'm literally wanting it now but there closed! The peach cobbler was also pretty good. Not enough crust for me but the amount is good size for the 6.99. Definitely try them out! We spent $50 total. read more

Brown’s Kitchen - Rib Tips w/ black eyed peas and Mac and cheese. Large portions with nice home taste. Will be back soon. - Soul Food Near Me - McDonough, Georgia

First let me say the customer service here is horrible. I was here for a doordash order. I was told it would be ready in 10 minutes. 45 minutes later someone from the kitchen comes out and tells me 15 minutes still. I was assigned another order for here . And they got mad cause me and other dashers was standing near the counter. There was no where else to go as the restaurant was packed with people waiting for there food. Just very rude and unprofessional. read more

If I could give 0 Stars I definitely would!!! EVERYTHING was disgusting I ordered the pork chops dressing and cabbage and let just say I threw the whole plate away nothing tasted good. I don't know who they got cooking that food but THEY CAN'T COOK!!!!! read more

New to McDonough. My wife and I loved it. Large portions, speedy delivery, highly recommend.

This place opens at 12 noon. My daughter placed an order via Grubhub by 1:30. She also called and spoke with an employee to verify the order and we thought everything was goo. We received a call back from the restaurant about 20 minutes later to be told they didn't have potato salad so we made a different choice. About 20 min later we received another phone call that they didn't have greens or sweet potato pie. Now mind you we ordered the turkey and dressing dinners that comes with 2 sides and muffin. Well once all this back and forth, Grubhub shows up with the order of turkey wings and no dressing. Be warned stay away!!!! Prices are high and food and service is terrible read more

disgusting they dont sell what they advertise on tiktok nasty business i couldn't even eat the food

You won't be disappointed but pack some patience but it's worth the wait. This is a new jewel close to the McDonough square.

Food took forever and then when we finally got it, it was below mediocre. Macaroni and cheese was watery if that's even possible. I've had better from a box. And had the nerve to put a burnt... black corn muffin in the box. Who would even think that was ok?!! It's a hard pass for me. read more

An amazing little cozy restaurant in downtown McDonough which I will 100% be a regular at! Amazing customer service, clean, great selection/portion sizes and hands down the best sweet potatoes I've had the pleasure of eating in my 45 years as a human! Mac n cheese was also very scrumptious! Honestly all the food was on point! read more

Wow! We stumbled on this new restaurant in McDonough, GA, at lunchtime on Saturday. We were so glad we did. Best food we have had in a long time. And the servings were generous enough that we ended up with 'doggie bags' for a complete other meal. This is a real gem of a restaurant. Good solid Southern favorites, and the desserts looked fantastic even though we were so full we declined dessert! I highly recommend the mac and cheese side dish. It was heavenly. read more

Stopped by here looking for some soul food. Ms. Lisa at the front was so sweet & thorough with her service. Make sure you have time because some food is cooked to order but overall 10/10. read more

First time here! Brand new restaurant! The food tastes great and the portions are huge! The kindest customers eat here! Would definitely recommend! read more

I really tried to keep my patience but this place was just not good. First off the food, for some reason the Mac & cheese was watery and the veggie plate was full of grease. Second I got their nobody was at the cashier desk so I was waiting their for at least 20 minutes. Then when I finally got to order my food they said it would take 30 minutes. I ordered my food at 4:51 PM as I type this it is 6:51PM. When I FINALLY got my food I opened it up, I found at least 4 piece of hair in my food. Lastly, while I was waiting for my food another person had been waiting longer than me and walked out slamming the store. Y'all need to get better staff and do better. read more

This place is a disaster; Unorganized; Unavailable food; Don't waste your time...you will regret it...
