I ordered the three fried chicken wings, cabbage and candied yams. Everything was delicious especially the cabbage which was seasoned to perfection. The biggest surprise for me was the hoe cake which took me all the way back to my childhood days visiting my grandmother's kitchen on any given special Sunday dinner, as a stack would be placed on the table to go along with the dinner. Needless to say I enjoyed the hoe cake, you sure don't see those everyday. The service was excellent and friendly, the sweet tea was everything, I can't wait to visit Big Ma's Soul Food again.

Some of the must flavorful fried chicken I've ever had. 10/10. The sides were pretty good too. Mac and cheese was so-so but as expected when making it in large batches. Dressing was tasteful and wet. The waitresses were very accommodating and attentive to our needs. True southern hospitality! Loved it. I will say... all the pies and cakes were 100/10. Excellent homemade desserts.

However, this time I looked at the rolls and thought, I bet that is good. It was my favorite part. I was trying to be a little healthier which is why I skipped on the mashed potatoes and chicken fried steak. Those are probably my preference and make up my previous 5 star review. The ambiance in Fordhams is 5 stars mainly BECAUSE the service is so darn great. The ladies here take care of you like nothing else. I feel right at home and taken care of. Our waitress was amazing and even after she took care of us, another waitress stepped over to clean our table and ask if I wanted a sweet tea for the road! Thanks Fordham's!

Built in 1914, the grandson of original house builder, still cooks in the restaurant. We especially loved the baked mac-n-cheese, lima beans, ham and fried chicken. Very reasonably priced all-you-can-eat at $12,50 family style, we loved eeverything. We were there right at the 11 AM opening, so I took lots of pics the dining areas, so beautiful. The waittress was very attentive and took excellent care of us. If the owners would scrape and paint the exterior I would gladly have given it 5 stars.

In town for FFW at GSU and saw rooftop patio looked empty so we swung on in. Not a ton of parking unless you park in lot adjacent to them. However, lots of seating options! Outdoor covered seating, rooftop covered seating and indoor. It was pretty packed down below but we grabbed 2 rooftop bar seats up top. From there, everything was perfect. Honestly, this place was the best I've eaten at EVER in the 'Boro. 5 stars on atmosphere, food, view and service. We opted for brunch menu but did the pretzel appetizer with beer cheese. The beer cheese was thicker than normal but good. I did the French toast burger with fried okra. Daaayum, tasted like a fluffy McGriddle but much larger! I could barely finish it. GET THE LEE'S SAUCE FOR DIPPING! It's like the Zax sauce but with more tang and kick. We accompanied our meal with a pitcher of electric lemonade (a Statesboro staple, going back to the days of Wild Wings & Dick's Dawg House). The entire experience was like "The Run" by AP (no, not the runs ).

Definitely probably one of the better restaurants in the area though. The Diet Coke was really good. The fried okra was not. Well priced for the food. The restaurant lives up to its name as there are a lot of gnats. Once the staff turned the fans on it was not as bad. My chicken parm sandwich was good, but probably wouldn't order it again and would stick with more classic options. Good casual place in the area though that does the trick for a good price.

Antoinette's is a pretty solid restaurant experience, with high quality food and a lovely ambience…read morefor a place of its size. The staff are very nice and welcoming, and Antoinette herself was an absolute delight. We came for the buffet lunch which, honestly, was less of a buffet and more of a live menu where they pick the food out of a tray for you. I think the restaurant would benefit from switching to a paper menu because standing in line waiting for the staff to pick your food one by one person by person was a little bit of an awkward experience. I feel like only getting one piece of fried chicken for a 20$ plate (which, with the credit charge and a drink and tip was pushing into 30$) wasn't great, but the portions on everything else was great. I really liked the food, the greens were well seasoned and really delicious. My boyfriend who doesn't usually like mac n' cheese loved their mac, and we both loved the corn. The candied yam was my highlight, really well cooked and just delicious. The fried chicken wasn't anything crazy but it was good for the one piece that came with my meal. The ribs could be better, they're onto something with the seasonings but the meat was tough and chewy which I didn't really care for. The burner on the ribs also went out which I think is another flaw with their buffet method, which left it lukewarm which was... Fine, just could've been better. The buffet did come with corn bread which I loved, I mean really high quality corn bread it was delicious. Overall the food is pretty good but the rib quality definitely drags it down for me. I would absolutely recommend this restaurant for anyone trying to get some good authentic southern cuisine; after a month in Vidalia this place was a breath of fresh air. I really loved the atmosphere of the restaurant, it was clear the owner put a lot of time, care, and money into making it a high quality dining experience, and one that I think is well on par with a lot of the nice restaurants in Savannah. My only immediate recommendation is either let people pick their food themselves at the buffet (and clarify that it's not all you can eat, other people at my table were confused about not being able to get a second serving) or ditch the buffet entirely. It's a nice idea but it would've been nicer and less awkward to just sit down and order what specifically I wanted. Also maybe hide that massage table by the bathrooms I wasn't sure what was going on there, it's literally the only weird thing with the otherwise delightful atmosphere of the restaurant.
