Memphis Best Soul Food always has a wonderful array of soul food dishes cooked. I went in to just…read moresnap pictures but I ended up ordering a bacon and egg sandwich. There lunch menu has an excellent assortment of meats and vegetables. I saw fried chicken, chopped pork, turkey wing meat, neck ones, smothered pork chops, hamhocks, and candied yams, rice, snap beans, black eyed peas, butter beans, and they still had a portion of the breakfast menu up. The dinner plates start at $15.00. They also sell sodas, chips, candy and other convenience store fare. The owner is a Q. And he's super friendly. By 9 am you can eat both breakfast AND lunch. It's all cooked by then. I've eaten their lunch before and it was wonderful. You can get hooked. It's just that good.

I ordered steak fries for delivery to the truck terminal, and they hit the spot after a long day on…read morethe road. I've been trucking for a few months now, and steak fries have become one of my go-to orders -- usually fries loaded with meat and cheese. South Memphis Grocery's take was different, but in a good way. Their version was basically a Philly cheesesteak piled over fries, bell peppers and all. It was a good portion and tasted pretty solid. I'm used to getting this dish from Mexican spots, so I expected salsa or something on the side, but that's just my personal preference. Overall, no complaints -- flavorful, filling, and worth a try if you're nearby or getting delivery like I did. I'd order again.

We first started out with the fried green tomatoes which were so good! I had the turkey and dressing, yams, and turnip green. All delicious and yummy. My daughter got the fried catfish, cabbage, and pickled green tomatoes. I'm not the biggest catfish person, but theirs is really good! Seasoned great. Even though we had so much food, we shared a peach cobbler which we both enjoyed. Staff was very friendly and very attentive. Will definitely be returning again.

First of all, I am completely obsessed with their turkey and dressing. I dream about it. It's the perfect blend of everything and it feels like Thanksgiving every day!!! Add the gravy, ask for extra on the TD - yes I know the shortcut for the meal! I also get extra cranberry sauce on the side. Then there's the baked chicken, fall-off-the-bone tender, perfectly seasoned, and honestly, just as good as Aunt Bay Bay used to make (don't tell her I said that). The mac and cheese is creamy, cheesy, golden on top, the kind that is made with the béchamel! It instantly takes you back to family dinners. And it's not just the food that keeps me coming back. It's the consistency. Every single time I've been, the food is hot, delicious, and exactly what I hoped for. The staff is friendly and warm--you feel like you're at home the moment you walk in. There's this beautiful energy there. By the way, Stax music artists and Dr. King used to go to the private room there. It's historic! This place is a Memphis treasure. A national treasure, honestly. The kind of spot you bring visitors to when you want to show them what real hospitality tastes like. If you've never been to The Four Way, stop what you're doing and GO. Get the turkey and dressing. Thank me later.

This place came highly recommended. We went to check it out on a Sunday and the expectations were…read morepretty high. You place your order first and then you find a seat if one is available to dine in. Dining is limited and the establishment consist of local black artwork covering the walls there is an upstairs area, but that seating is also limited. The owner was very proud of his establishment and gave us the history of how they came about and who cooks what in the restaurant. The service was great the food unfortunately did not match. I'm all for supporting black owned businesses, but I have to give honest feedback. Starting with the sides, the spaghetti, the cabbage, and the greens all had excessive amounts of sugar in them, which was such a turn off, everything taste the same it was so sweet it created a film in my mouth of sugar. The sweet tea lemonade mix was again full of sugar. You couldn't taste the lemonade or the tea. It was just sweetness. I do understand certain people like their food like this. I however, am not one of those individuals. The turkey ribs, a.k.a. clavicle bone taste like smoked bologna and the A1 barbecue sauce did not enhance the flavor whatsoever I nor my mother could finish our food the cornbread taste like mush everything overpowered everything there was no distinct taste of broccoli or cheese just mushy wet undercooked cornbread that again was sweet. The only star of the show for this experience was the fried fish. It was cooked to perfection seasoned well surprisingly without sugar. We could not finish our food after a couple of bites so we took it to go and handed it to a homeless person on the way home. I love the concept of this establishment. I love how they incorporate other black businesses and I can tell he is proud of his work. I would love to support in other ways, just not through the food unfortunately, I will not be returning but I pray this establishment continues to improve, evolve, and thrive, it's a million herbs and spices to utilize, sugar doesn't have to be one of them and for $70 bucks I do expect to enjoy the food to some extent.

Talbert is Jim & Samella's grandson and HE CAN COOOOOOK! On this day, I had one of the best meals I have ever eaten in Memphis! He began with a salad made with veggies from Knowledge Quest. He pickled the fresh vegetables and then sautéed some of them in brown butter. His next course was a Soul Roll with collard greens inside a fried egg roll with yam sauce. We then cleaned off our palates with pineapple sorbet that had small pieces of pineapple inside. The main course was a choice between chicken or oxtail with dressing. The vegetables were green beans or Brussels sprouts as well as sweet potatoes. Dessert was a choice between sweet potato pie, pound cake or bread pudding. I cannot believe how delicious everything was. My chicken was falling off the bone. Everything was so well seasoned. You will never need salt or pepper in this restaurant. The restaurant is located in Talbert's grandparents' actual house. The decor is such that you totally feel at home. It's such a delightful experience!!! What makes this an even better experience is knowing that the restaurant adopted Ida B. Wells Academy to buy school supplies for the kids. I hear on Sundays, they get so packed that you can't get a seat and they run out of food every Sunday. Someone there said "you have to be posted up by 10:30 to get in." The restaurant is only open three days out of the week. They have set menus for each day. I will have to try every single one! This is an INSANELY AMAZING restaurant in the heart of South Memphis.

The meats however, were lackluster and slightly overcooked. I tried the ham, the baked chicken, and the fried chicken. I did not finish any of them as they were a little dry and not very flavorful. The salad bar's offerings were meager and not very appetizing. For example, the cherry tomatoes were orange as if they were not yet ripe. Peach cobbler was the desert, and I just sampled it. It was okay. The cheesy potatoes were sinfully delicious. If you go, get them. The dressing was also quite tasty. It was nice to have some good dressing in January. I would come back when I'm in the mood for homestyle vegetables.
