    So this meat is supposed to be short rib?? WTH
    Evelyne R.

    Today is horrible. The greens were nasty. Also, my friend picked the wrong size but he asked for short ribs and I don't know what kind of meat this is supposed to be. That is not short ribs. They didn't even say it's a different type of meat was not expecting that just horrible and the service wasn't all good.

    Huge portion of great food!

    This was my first time here and it was great! And I came here from Russia to try this amazingly soul food, thanks to my wifey - she always know how to hit the spot Keep it going guys!! I am honestly so t understand why this place don't have 5 STARS here on YELP. Because food is smacking!

    Dinner meal was amazing the fried chicken I loved Krispy and the mash potatoes are 10/10 especially the collard greens wow that's all I could say about the food. For dessert I had the peach cobbler just missing a vanilla ice cream on top. Will I come again yes. Best soul food I had in a long time.

    My receipt for this pathetic short-rib dinner- no drink included. DO NOT BUY -RIP OFF
    Ron R.

    THEY ARE NOT THE SAME A meal at Dulan's has never been on the cheap but one thing that has always brought me back is good food and hearty servings. THAT IS NO LONGER THE CASE. My recent short-rib dinner purchase for $31.70, no drink included, was anything but pleasant. They used to give you two proper serving of the shot-rib; now it's one skimpy serving sliced down the center flaked with rice and gravy. As one of my sides I ordered black-eyed peas. It came in a separate container consisting of 90% rice with 10% peas on top of it. I DID NOT ORDER RICE. They used the rice as a FILER. for $31.70, I feel like I've been robbed! Adding insult to injury, the place is very disorganized, unprofessional,and the employee's are rude AF. I WILL NEVER EAT HERE AGAIN. THEY RIPPED ME OFF ; AND, THE FOOD PORTIONS ARE NOT WAHT THEY USE TO BE.

    Dry breast and dressing with smidgen of dressing...It was literally were you see it in this photo...Smh

    I've never ordered from this location until Thursday October 17th... Ubereats order of baked chicken (dark meat), cabbage, mac & cheese, dressing w/gravy and cornbread muffins... I got white meat instead (it was dry) and a smidgen (and I do mean a smidgen) of gravy so the dressing was dry...Very disappointing... Not as flavorful as Dulan's on Crenshaw...3/5 stars...I won't patronize this location again...

    oxtail meal

    Went to SoFi stadium and Dulan's was nearby. Note Sunday there is a different menu. Lined up to order it moved quickly went into another line to pickup here's a pic of our family feast of oxtails (5 pieces) on bed of rice...i will return and try chicken next time. Food was solid! Cane with sweet tea, small dessert cup, two sides and two muffins.

    My friend recommended me this spot. He is from Inglewood so I trusted his word. Overall, it was okay. Fried chicken tasted good, but it was extremely tough and dry. I got a thigh piece. Unbearably dry. However, the drum stick was good. Tender enough. Flavor was great. Good seasoning. Sides were good. Fluffy and soft corn bread. Corn bread dressing was good. Not sure if I would go back. I have had better.

    Lunch Fried Chicken, Mac n Cheese, Greens and Strawberry Lemonade.
    Roel C.

    You can always count on Dulan's! Everything was well seasoned, Fried Chicken was crispy and moist. Mac n Cheese was so good and the corn bread was Fire. Check this place out for some home cooked Soul Food.

    Collards were delicious

    Met up with a friend for lunch. Today was especially busy because it was the grand opening I arrived earlier and saw valet or street parking available. After I parked, I followed the aroma of food which led me to the line for ordering. I also noticed an area for take out which is located on the outside side of the building. The line to order done in moved quickly between the two cashiers. You can view the food menu on the kiosk located above the order station. I tried to use my Apple pay but for whatever reason it didn't accept so I paid with my bank card. I received a number to place for the server to bring your food to the table. The love the open kitchen where diners can view the food preparation. The floor tiles and walls were warm and inviting like a being at someone's home. I love the family history and community photos on the walls. Once you get a table number, find a table for the servers to bring your food with the option seating either indoors or on the heated patio. I also saw another outside area at the back of the restaurant where there was live music. The restrooms are located near the back of the restaurant. The table and chairs reminds me of a café with spacious seating and gathering space for a large event. My food arrived to my table by server Micheal about seven minutes from the time of order. Leonard, also stopped my table to make sure I had what I ordered was correct. Later when my friend arrived and needed her food warmed up, Christian, the GM took care of it and also stopped by to check on us. Lots of great customer service and personal attention. The food was fresh and in large portions. I had the fried fish with a big mason jar of cold sweet tea/ lemonade, red beans/rice, and streamed cabbage (to peppery for me) so I change for collard greens to go with best corn muffins. We could end the day without house-made sweet potato pie. The kitchen did a great job. It was so much to absorb but enjoyed the day. We had a blast and will be back for more.

Well, Fiesta Martin did not disappoint. We went there on a Sunday, late morning. There was a wait to be seated notice but since it wasn't crowded they let us sit where we like. Waitress was prompt and personable. We went at breakfast time so they had a regular menu along with a breakfast menu. I opted for breakfast with Chorizo and eggs with potatoes and refried beans, corn tortillas. My husband ordered the 3 birria tacos plate. Both were tasty and reasonably priced. There was a drink menu that I would have ordered a good looking margarita from but it was a tad too early for me. My husband did order a Corona with lime. Absolutely LOVE the ambiance! I see why it stands out when you drive by. Very colorful art decor. Ample seating on the inside as well as a nice patio on the side. Parking is easily accessible with parking stalls in the front or street parking along with a parking lot on the side of the restaurant. We have been back in the area for a year now and have been looking for a go to Mexican spot. Looks like this is gonna be it!

We were greeted at the door by security, who opened it for every customer. His attitude was pleasant, and he had a genuine smile. Not one of those false demonstrations of civility.

We were ushered to the back, Sunday Church pun intended. Our server got us wonderful drinks. Then we ordered our food, and when those soulful southern dishes arrived, it was the crown jewel of the experience. They looked as good as they tasted. We not only enjoyed the food, but Lonell came and chatted with us. He was genuinely concerned with the quality of our food and service, which was exceptional.

Ambience and service were positives: a warm greeting from Lonnel, sweet waitress, and a friendly bartender. However, beef was unavailable on the day despite Friday/Saturday promises, and the food failed to justify the price. A friend's fried chicken arrived raw--we know what cooked fried chicken should taste and look like, having eaten fried chicken plenty of times. The chef dismissed the concern and offered only a $5 discount, eroding trust in safety and quality. Overall, none of the dishes hit the mark. The hospitality was the bright spot; otherwise, the experience did not reflect the concept or value. I wouldn't return, but hope for improved consistency and safety. Giving it 1 Star for our waitress and the bartender.

My mate frequents this place on a regular basis, he lives about 7 minute drive away.

The chopped tomatoes and onions were fresh and perfectly diced, so you could actually taste every component in each bite. Surprisingly, I didn't even feel heavy afterward like I usually do with fast food. I also ordered a double cheeseburger, and it did not disappoint.

The service was excellent--quick, accommodating, and super patient while I took my time looking over their huge menu. They were also really nice about giving me extra condiments. I'm not even from LA--I was just in town for business--but I would absolutely come back. Hands down, one of the best spots I've tried.

My first visit was slow, but I gave grace because the place had recently gone viral and was packed. This visit was different. We were seated quickly. The restaurant was not busy. Out of about 12 booths and several counter seats, only a few tables were occupied. We placed a simple breakfast order and then waited. And waited. It took almost an hour to get our food. During that time, the table next to us received their food, ate, paid, and left before our plates even arrived. Meanwhile pickup orders started piling up and tickets were stacking in the kitchen. I could see only two cooks working, so I understand being understaffed, but this is a breakfast diner. The food we ordered should never take an hour. Order: Corned beef hash plate with grits, eggs, and English muffin Pancake special with bacon and eggs Burger and fries The pancakes were good and the burger was fine according to my son. Everything else was disappointing. The corned beef hash tasted like canned corned beef seared hard with tiny potatoes and almost no seasoning. The grits were bland and watery with no flavor at all. After waiting that long, the quality did not match the time investment. What made it worse was watching multiple customers visibly frustrated. One couple waited around 30 minutes at the counter and eventually walked out. Unfortunately, about three hours after eating I had stomach cramps bad enough to send me to the restroom. I genuinely want this place to succeed, but based on two visits, the wait times, food consistency, and overall execution are not there yet. I cannot recommend.
