    Since I was doing a staycation in Fort Worth this was a perfect opportunity to try a small business in the area. I love supporting minority businesses. Chef's Corner did not disappoint. Food: I give it 4 STARS Chicken and Waffles presentation was great. The chicken was piping hot and well seasoned. The waffles were soft and the sweet sauce served with it was delicious. The portion was huge and worth the money. The gumbo was yummy and full of flavor. I was pleasantly surprised and impressed with the taste. It warmed my soul and I felt it was made with love. The cocktails were good too. The margarita was my favorite. It was well made and the tajin rim was the magic touch. The peach henny was ok. It wasn't very peachy and for the cost it should have been better. The margarita was cheaper and was the better drink. Service: I give it 4 STARS My waitress was pleasant and friendly. She was polite and helpful. Ambiance: I give it 3.5 STARS It was clean and cozy, but simple and laid back. I like they have booths and tables. The bar has a variety of options for alcohol. Overall I enjoyed my experience. I left happy and full. I will definitely visit again when I'm back in the area.

    My first visit to Chef's Corner was a little unexpected--I pulled up to a gas station thanks to Google Maps, but thankfully found their beautiful new location in a nearby plaza. The space is bright, open, and super clean. Perfect spot for a family send-off meal before my mom headed to the airport. We ordered: Collard green dip to start--bomb! And the bread served with it? Amazing. Would love to know what it's called again!? Mom and daughter had the grilled salmon with mashed potatoes--clean and flavorful. Cousin had fried shrimp and catfish over grits with sausage--Southern comfort at its finest. I ordered the fried catfish platter with fries, greens, and mac & cheese. My sides came out first, but my main was delayed. Thankfully, my Hennessy "Henny lemon drop" kept me company while I waited. One thing I really appreciated--the greens were made with turkey, not pork. So many places default to pork, so this was a thoughtful touch that didn't go unnoticed. Despite the hiccup, the food was worth it. Looking forward to bringing more out-of-town family here for that soulful, Southern vibe. Chef's Corner is a hidden gem with heart.

    I think I found my new spot to come enjoy some good food! @Everything was great, I was a big fan of the turkey leg and the toppings, the boudin balls and that sauce(my favorite) so full of flavor the food came out fast too! Great service and so much food had to pack it to go!

    Came here for a birthday party/brunch service. Staff were super friendly and accommodating. Ordered some Boudin Balls and they were amazing. Had a wonderful time, alogreat entertainment as well. We will be back!

    Chicken & waffles!!

    I tried the chicken & waffles yesterday. Service was great & it was the best food ever! Can't wait to go back.

    Boudin Balls

    The food was good. The meat fell off the bones of the turkey leg. Only thing was Our server did not check on use after we received our food so no refills on our drinks.

    Catfish Po'Boy

    Wowee. What a wonderful luncheon experience at Chef's Corner Restaurant! I ordered the Collard green spinach dip and the fried catfish po'boy--both were absolutely delicious and full of flavor. The dip was creamy and unique, and the catfish was fried to perfection with just the right crunch. Our server, Ricky, was friendly and attentive throughout the meal, making sure we had everything we needed. A special shout-out to Chef Michael , who personally came by our table to check on us--that extra touch really made the experience feel personal and welcoming. Great food, great service, and a great atmosphere. I'll definitely be back!

    I visited Madea's for the first time on a Thursday while in town visiting family, and I was…read morewelcomed right at the entrance. The hospitality set the tone for a great experience. I ordered the pork chop plate, and the server kindly let me try both a fried pork chop and a smothered one since I couldn't make up my mind. I also had fried cabbage and yams. The cabbage had a little unexpected heat to it, but that's actually the same way my family cooks theirs, so I ended up really enjoying it. One thing that stood out to me was the staff. I'm not sure if the restaurant is always staffed this way, but I was genuinely impressed that all the front-line workers were men -- and every single one of them was courteous, respectful, patient, and mindful of each customer. While I enjoyed my meal, I watched them treat each person who walked in with the same positive energy and attentiveness. If you're in the area, go support this restaurant. The food, the atmosphere, and the service all made my first visit a memorable one.

The young man who answered the phone was very kind and ensured he had my order correct. Even verified I was ok with paying over the phone before he took my order. I arrived about 15 minutes later and once inside the cashier called for my order number then requested to see the card I paid with and my ID. In today's world it's comforting to know there are businesses verifying identity! Kudos!! Once seated at home I opened my container to hot fried catfish, tomatoes and okra, Mac n cheese and hot water cornbread. My first bite of everything was very good and seasoned to perfection. I got so full so quick that I wasn't able to finish but it made for perfect leftovers later that day. On to the desserts! My mom got a slice of pecan pie and I enjoyed the strawberry cake. Both were tasty and prepared perfectly! I will stop in again for fried pork chops when it's time for an off plan meal.

Weird combination, I know , but it was my cheat day! My granddaughter had chicken and waffles, and my daughter had beef tips and rice. Yes, I tasted everybody's food and everything was delicious! I'm giving 4 stars because the service needs a little more organization and training. When we walked in, my daughter asked a petite young lady how long the wait would be, and unfortunately, her response came across as unprofessional with a bit of an attitude. Even while taking our order, some of her responses didn't reflect a team-oriented attitude. When one person looks good, the whole team looks good--and when one person doesn't, it reflects on everyone. I don't hold that against the young lady; in my opinion, she simply needs more training and guidance for her role. One of Ms. Nana's friends even got up in her church clothes to help sweep. She later went home, changed, came back, and immediately started helping--that's a friend! I also LOVE that some of the staff are part of a second-chance organization! THANK YOU, NANA for giving our babies the training, guidance, and tools they need to succeed. Great food--I'll definitely be back!

    My husband is from the south, Virginia to be exact, so my review will be biased based on that. I am…read moregiving a very generous 4 star review mainly because of the woman who was plating all the food behind the counter and because this place is a soul food spot not southern. I came here today a little after 5pm and did not get a greeting like everyone else did when I walked into the door. They were pretty busy with to go orders around this time. There is an entrance area where you order and pay for your food and a separate area for dining in. I ordered a catfish fillet with Mac n cheese and sweet potatoes and fried shrimp basket with fries and greens to go. I ordered at 5:15 and got my food at 5:45 and let me tell you, it was the longest wait of my life. I think the A/C must've been broken because it was hot in the waiting area and it didn't help that one of the front desk girls kept complaining about them still being open for another hour. There were a bunch of flies everywhere and the front area doesn't seem to be cleaned throughout the day. I also feel for the woman who puts the plates together because she's doing it by herself and was constantly asking the front desk girls to bag the orders. She stayed calm though and still greeted people as they were coming in. Now for the food. The shrimp basket was $25.99 and the catfish was $19.99. The shrimp was good, kids approved. The catfish was good too. All the food was made fresh to order so I can appreciate that for quality. Onto the sides. I think the French fries were accidentally season with sugar instead of salt. The greens were ok, just drenched with garlic. The Mac n cheese, ehhh. I was looking forward to the Mac n cheese but it wasn't as cheesy as I was expecting but tasted ok. The sweet potatoes were really good, probably my favorite side out of the four. The cornbread was moist and good. Overall, food was good but definitely overpriced. However, I do support small businesses but still think it's a bit overpriced based on portion size. They do require you pay for your food before you sit down if you are dining in. This may be because of too many incidents where people dine and dash. I do think that the lady behind the counter putting the plates together needs better help. No offense to the young girls they have working there but either train them or get someone who can actually do the job. If you are looking for true southern food, this ain't it. Texas food vs. southern food are 2 completely different things which I am learning the hard way now having lived here for a year.

    I went to Juicy's Homestyle Chicken to try it out for the first time and ordered the chicken wing…read moredinner. Man, the chicken was seasoned really well! It had plenty of flavor without being overly salty, which I definitely appreciated. The fries were good too and seasoned nicely with seasoning salt. The place itself was clean, and everything looked well kept. Customer service was okay--not bad at all, but nothing that really stood out either. Since I ordered to-go, I didn't have a lot of interaction with the staff. I will say the young man working the register could've been a little more welcoming and engaging. This would've also been a perfect opportunity to upsell me on a dessert, drink, or another menu item, especially since it was my first time there. Overall, though, the food was the star of the show. The chicken was flavorful, well-seasoned, and not too salty. I'd definitely come back and try some other items on the menu.

    I really wanted to love Juicy's, especially after hearing good things about them, but unfortunately…read moremy first experience was pretty underwhelming. I placed my order about 17-18 minutes before closing. The staff wasn't particularly welcoming, but they were somewhat friendly, took my order, and answered my questions the best they could. One person didn't know the answer to something I asked, but another employee chimed in and helped, which I appreciated. I also understand that I came near the end of their day, so everyone may have simply been tired. I ordered the 2-piece catfish with mac & cheese and green beans, plus 3 wings on the side. I was told my food would take about 20-25 minutes. There were customers ahead of me and people who came in after me, so I actually gave them an extra five minutes before returning to pick up my order. Everything was hot when I received it, but strangely, the first piece of fish and the wings didn't taste freshly fried. They were hot, but the breading had lost that fresh crispness, which made me wonder if they had possibly been reheated or dropped back into the fryer. What made it even more noticeable was that my second piece of fish was MUCH better and tasted considerably fresher. Overall, the fish and chicken were also surprisingly bland. Once I got home, I ended up adding seasoning salt myself. However, I have to give credit where it's due: the green beans and cornbread were easily the highlights of the meal. The green beans had good flavor, and the cornbread was REALLY good. It was incredibly moist--almost cake-like moist--and definitely one of the things I enjoyed most. Unfortunately, the mac & cheese was the biggest disappointment. It was extremely dry, and even the noodles didn't look like the mac & cheese I had seen in photos before ordering. Maybe I received what was left toward the bottom of the pan because it was the end of the day, but either way, what I received really wasn't acceptable. I'm including a picture because it honestly speaks for itself. I completely understand that I ordered close to closing time, and I'm taking that into consideration. However, if the quality of the food can't be maintained until closing, I think there should be a cutoff for new orders--maybe 30 minutes beforehand. If a restaurant is open, still accepting orders, and charging full price, customers should receive the same quality of food they would receive earlier in the day. I spent around $30, so overall this was disappointing. I'm actually considering giving Juicy's another try in the middle of the day because I'd like to know whether this was simply an end-of-day experience or if this is representative of the food overall. Based on this first visit, though, I wasn't impressed.

I was once a regular customer and have visited this restaurant many times in the past.

The meat was very bland, and some of my favorite items from previous visits were not available. I understand that restaurants can change their menus or run out of certain items, but combined with the lack of flavor, it made the overall meal less enjoyable. What was even more disappointing, however, was the customer service. The woman who appeared to be part of the ownership was once again rude and unprofessional. Unfortunately, this is not the first time I've had this type of interaction with her. I really wanted to be able to say that things had improved, but based on today's visit, I don't feel comfortable recommending this restaurant or returning anytime soon. Good food and welcoming customer service both matter, and unfortunately, neither met my expectations today.

    We decided to order from this restaurant through the Too Good To Go app…read more I rarely write harsh reviews, but this experience deserves every bit of criticism. What happened today was unacceptable from the moment we walked in. The place was visibly dirty and completely unappetizing. The back area was mostly hidden behind what looked like a shower curtain, which did nothing to inspire confidence. There appeared to be only one man working, and he came out only a few times during the entire 45 minutes we waited. Even more concerning, there was a child who looked to be about eight or nine years old wearing latex gloves and repeatedly coming out to the front, apparently helping with restaurant tasks that no child should be doing. Despite having prepaid through Too Good To Go, no one acknowledged us for nearly 10 minutes. We stood in a hot dining room with almost no air conditioning while the child wandered in and out and the adult remained behind the curtain. More people arrived behind us, also with prepaid orders, until there were about 10 people waiting. We watched three other customers receive their food before us. One was a DoorDash driver, which made sense, and one woman had arrived before us. However, another woman with a very small order was served ahead of us even though she arrived after we did. When the man finally came out, we showed him our Too Good To Go order. He swiped the app, marking our order as picked up, then disappeared behind the curtain again and never returned with our food. After waiting 45 minutes in a sweltering dining room on a nearly 100-degree Texas day, we gave up. We left without the food we had already paid for. At that point, losing the cost of the meal was preferable to staying in that environment any longer. This was one of the worst pickup experiences I have ever had. Between the unsanitary conditions, the lack of staff, the presence of a child apparently performing restaurant tasks, the complete absence of customer service, and the fact that we never even received the order we had already paid for, I can say with complete confidence: We will never return.

Not to be deterred discovers Linda's Soul Food to go and called to inquire if they had fried chicken. They did. Yahoooo. Off we went. Upon arrival and as we entered this little gem I just admit I was worried. It was dead and appeared only one person was working. We learned they only had 4 meat offerings, fried chicken, fried pork chops, meatloaf and fried catfish. We were a bit disappointed when we learned they only had wings and legs for the fried chicken but moved on and placed an order.

The corn and greens were cooked with waaaaayyyyy too much pepper and should have been labeled as spicy corn and spicy greens. Also, the greens needed to be picked - I had too many big stems in my serving, and I'm not a fan of those. Would I go back when I'm in the area? Yes. Will I take advantage of them offering samples on everything? Absolutely! Reel back on that pepper, and they are in there. I recommend.
