Came here the first time in 2021. They had the buffet which was delicious! We came back November of 2022, totally revised. The inside was beautiful, no more buffet, at least for dinner. I had the fried chicken, Mac n cheese, and collards. It all was better this time then our first visit, which was good. Idk what they did but more spices and flavor. Hubby had catfish, collards and Mac n Cheese. His fish was Amazing! The host, Leslie, was very attentive to us. So far our favorite soul food restaurant read more

Clean building, friendly staff,an awesome food....What more could u ask for?...My personal favorite is the Turkey Wing dinner

This was my first visit at GiGis. I wanted soul food that was close to home. Anyways as I walked in the restaurant it was very clean and organized for pick up orders. I ordered a turkey wing plate with 2 sides (Mac & cheese/yams) I told the server I wanted a turkey wing plate but she gave me baked chicken instead. No I wasn't watching her fix my plate b/c I was looked off. The chicken was good. Just seasoned baked chicken. The yams were delicious. The Mac & cheese was to salty for me so I didn't even bother to finish it. read more

GiGi's Place - Baked chicken w/ Mac & cheese & yams - Soul Food Near Me - Covington, Georgia

Visiting after the remodel by restaurant impossible. Place Is so cute inside. The decor is just adorable. The staff was pleasant. And the food was good. We ordered from the menu, which was limited due to being out of everything. The mac and cheese was the best I've ever had. I will definitely go back for the cafeteria style of Sunday. Well done. read more

Ok i am from Dallas flew down looking fpr the soulfood. Place got 4 stars right. Ok cool lets go here. They are doing takeout and call in which is cool the customer service was cool and the wait wasv35 min. Everyone bragging on this food. Let me tell you LOL like 20 times. The dressing was look at the picture. Wow straight burnt and nasty. The pudding look like some one been eating on it small portions spent 40 bucks for the trash can. Look i duno if they where busy or it waa about the money but very very nasty. read more

See all

After spending five minutes trying to figure out their ordering system I was not willing to pay $15 for a veggie plate or $18 for a chicken lunch. I hope the food is amazing but I walked out due to their business structure. read more

I really try to support local businesses faithfully. I also try to find good in every situation. Here's the good. 1.The ordering process went very smoothly. 2. The food looked very enticing . That's it! After spending over $50 on this past Sunday evening, 1. Part of what was supposed to be delivered was missing. 2. The fried chicken platters or were both a bit salty. 3. The baked chicken platter came with a big bloody thigh & leg portion . We gotta do better folks! read more

Although I LOVE supporting black businesses and I would love to leave a higher review, I can't this time. I visited this restaurant for the first time today and I was not pleased. I ordered three meals, all which were nasty. The cat fish tasted and smelled as if it were cooked in old batter or grease. My sons ribs didn't have ANY sauce on them, none at all! My husbands Lima beans were hard, and the yams were Bruce's yams, straight out of the can, no extra sugar or spices to them.. we gave the baked chicken and ribs to our dogs and trashed everything else. I'm very disappointed.. although I will say that the mango tea that they make is AMAZINGLY delicious that was the only tasty thing on the menu read more

Yes! Yes! Yes! Is this place fancy, no. Does this place welcome you with open arms and a gorgeous smile along with all the other staff serving? YES! Is the food exactly what it is quoted to be YES! I don't need fancy. I need heart warming, comfort, delicious food from the soul and GiGi's place delivered! I'm a southern girl who grew up on a farm and had to pick, shuck, shell, food during the summer to eat well during the winter months. I moved to Atlanta area 22 years ago and rarely find a gem that produces home cooked meals like my mother did. The menu changes daily according to website. I visited today on a Thursday and had country fried steak, dressing and gravy, white rice with gravy and collards! YES I TOOK IT TO THE EXTREME because I couldn't tell you the last time I had country fried steak along with all those sides. This meal is actually what my mother makes for me for my birthday meal when I make the five hour trip home. First off the steak I cut with a fork....the cubed (country fried) steak my mother makes, I have to cut with knife. Not GiGi's! The flavor of the gravy and steak was unbelievable. The collards were top three I've ever eaten and I promise you I travel extensively for work and seek out soul food, most of the time to be let down. I can't believe I found such a gem 20 minutes from my central corporate office. My waistline will not thank me, but I thank you GiGi for the amazing food you produce read more

GiGi's Place - Country fried steak, dressing and collards - Soul Food Near Me - Covington, Georgia

I enjoyed everything I had here. It was good soul food. The cornbread is a little sweet. The greens and meatloaf were good. The mac & cheese was not the best I have had but I enjoyed it. So where would this place rate in my foodie mind? The food is good and I will go back but it's not a place that comes across as extra special that you want to tell all your friends about. I call it good but not great. It's missing any wow factor but maybe that's the point of good ol home cooking. read more

GiGi's Place - Lunch plate with Meatloaf, Mac & Greens. - Soul Food Near Me - Covington, Georgia

I visited GiGi's place for the first time on Sunday. I came upon this restaurant while searching for a Soul Food Restaurant near me. It is very close to my home which makes it quite accessible! I must report that customer service was excellent! Due to Covid/19, no in house dining was allowed! This day, we ordered fried chicken and oxtails. For my sides, I chose collard greens and yams . My wife had oxtails on rice with Mac and cheese and string beans as a side. The portions were modest to say the least! I received one keg and one thigh for approximately nine dollars ! This was More expensive than some other restaurants offering the sane type of goods. The taste of the food was good but wasn't excellent! I would return to this restaurant again to see if everything remained the same or if there were any improvements! All in all, I must give it a "B" rating! read more

The boy at the front was super sweet which is why they get 3 stars. The food was disgusting, especially for the price point. I paid 80+ dollars for 3 plates that weren't good enough to be eaten, the presentation is okay but the taste is mediocre! I even had to turn around and come back because most of my order was incomplete and the only thing they could do for my inconvenience was give me a dry ass cornbread that sits in a drawer like warmer.. read more

Food was cold and microwaved. Not sure if it was old or not but it definitely did not taste fresh. They gave me a iced tea that had stuff floating in it. Yes they changed it but that's still kind of alarming. Overall, I won't be back. read more

I've been here multiple time by far the best soul food in town. Favorite day to come is Saturday their ribs and collar greens are very good! My son loves their fish, Mac and cheese and chicken wings, and he's quite the picky eater. This place is a great place to get food on the go, however at times it came be a wait due to many customers, I find it better to call in my order. read more

I really enjoyed my meal at Gigi's, and I will go back next time in I'm in the area. Soul food so there will be a lot of soul. Be ready for it. All of the people that work there seem to be very very nice, lots of little samples to try of their sides to make sure you were happy. And even suggesting alternatives and questioning if I'm wanted to wait so I could get even fresh or hot or chicken. So overall great experience, great people, in a out-of-the-way little mall, so it's a little hard to fine. But definitely worth the effort. read more

The food was delicious, the ambience stole the show, service was better than most. I choose to eat here for my bday dinner however the weather had other plans lol it was a cold Sunday we went to brunch then bought dinner around 1pm the food was still delicious at 10pm that night. I would definitely dine again. read more

GiGi's Place - Baked chicken, Lima beans, rice, cabbage - OUTSTANDING - Soul Food Near Me - Covington, Georgia

The food here is REALLY good! Portion sizes a bit small, but still totally worth it! It seems like the best time to go is on weekends and especially Sundays. Red velvet cake is soooo good. read more

I can't believe that I missed writing a review for this location. Lord forgive me! Let's start with the gentleman who greeted me with the biggest smile and so much laughter that I truly needed it that day. I had just got off from a hard day at work and realize that I hadn't eaten all day. So, as I try to keep with my pescatarian/vegetarian lifestyle sometimes it hard to find a good home cooked meal location that will appease my southern appetite. So, as I always... I check my Yelp for a good vegetarian location within 10 miles of where I was. Lo and behold GiGi's Place popped up. Now I am a little bias with the name of the restaurant because that is the name my grandson calls me. So you know I had to head on over there. From the smiles, comic laughter and just good old fashion good customer service to the smoky greens, sweet potatoes and a hint of spice green beans, I fell in love. I felt like I was at home when I walked in to the time I got home to eat my meal. It is a nice quaint spot in an old shopping center location. Be careful, because you might miss it, so turn on that navigation...LOL! GiGi Place, I give you 5-stars for great food and customer service. Next time, I will bring my grandson so that he can see that his name for his GiGi has a place of its own! read more

Food was delicious. Nice portion sizes, nice price, delicious flavor. Turkey wing was immaculate and so was the baked chicken. The cornbread came out a little lopsided but the taste was delicious glad I ordered extras. Mac and cheese could have been a little more cheesy but again the flavor was there. I also ordered dessert . The apple cobbler and banana pudding . Apple cobbler was giving sweet apple dessert and the banana pudding was very rich. Overall would definitely recommended read more

First time going omg everything was so amazing from the friendly staff to the homey feeling of the establishment frequent customers even helped me decide on what to get everything was delicious and well seasoned definitely will be coming back every time I visit my cousin who lives in the area the some of the best macaroni I've had in a minute read more

GiGi's Place - Pork Ribs - 4 Bones - Soul Food Near Me - Covington, Georgia

Good vibes. Great food but sometimes inconsistent. Definitely give it a try! I've gotten the Salisbury Steak, Cube Steak, Smothered Pork Chops and all were delicious. Gravy is flavorful and Mac & cheese is usually creamy. Sometimes the cornbread tastes straight like cabbage water or something so it's hit or miss. Employees have all been friendly and hospitable. read more

Small spot with good flavor. I got baked chicken over rice with 2 vegetables(macaroni and cheese and collard greens). Everything was flavorful, but they all were a little spicy. I like it, but even the staff when recommending collards or cabbage he said collards were too spicy for him. The corn bread is just jiffy(on the sweet side for those that don't know), but again I love jiffy. It's just not homemade if that's what you're looking for. They may have gotten a 5, but the macaroni was over cooked so it was a little dry. It still tasted good though. The staff was welcoming and polite. I will be back. read more

GiGi's Place - Baked chicken over rice with brown gravy and macaroni and cheese and collard greens - Soul Food Near Me - Covington, Georgia

I am from South Carolina and apparently my good soul food taste buds are different. I have been twice and the food is meh, actually very meh. A few of the vegetables are okay, but that is all the love I can give. I am literally cheating on 1 by giving a 2 here. My wife will not even consider going back. I will commend the staff, they are a nice group. read more

Really wanted some fried chicken... passed by GiGi's place and decided to go in. Ordered fried chicken, collard greens, and Mac n cheese. Price was fair for $9. Got home to taste it.... delicious! Everything tasted great! Very satisfied read more

Delicious The is so good just like mama use to cook. Love the catfish plate. Fried just right the sweet potato are seasoned right. The black eye peas so good. I could go in and on but you just have to try them for your self. Very friendly staff read more

Great service....even better food! Highly recommended...especially to the surrounding Covington/Conyers community.

Love GiGi's place!! The food is so bomb here! I hate they don't have meatloaf everyday but the wings are good! The green are my Fave!

Classic soul food and they just were on Restaurant impossible so there's new amenities. Food is always on point and it can only go up from there. read more

Looks like they just had a regrand opening. I'm in ATL for work and I don't eat meat. I've been subsisting on salads all week. I saw GiGi's on yelp and they had a vegetable plate. The collards, cabbage, black eyed peas and potatoes were delicious and they hit the spot. My friends got the fried chicken and said it was amazing as well. The service was nice and friendly. Do yourself a favor and check out GiGi's! read more

I ordered the fried chicken meal with a breast and wing the wing was tiny it look the chicken wasn't finished growing lol. The chicken breast was so salty I couldn't eat nothing but a couple bites. The macaroni was aIght not alright but aight. The greens could have been better as well I had high hopes but unfortunately it wasn't good so I won't come back. read more

I passed this place several times and didn't even know it was there but one day my friend ordered Grubhub or DoorDash...idk but the Salmon was delicious! I found the location and had the same 3xs since! I do not live in the area but anytime I am I will definitely support! The mango lemonade is yummy too! read more

This food was sooooooooo good. I ordered the turkey wing, greens and dressing. Craving it right now again. Good to find a local soul food spot with GOOD FOOD. Even the cornbread is swinging (Jiffy)!! I will be returning for a plate soon. Staff was kind as well, I noticed they recognize their regulars. read more

See all

I absolutely love their Mac n cheese, and veggies. They need to improve on the meat. The fried chicken is usually dry, over cooked and very small pieces. The same with their baked chicken. read more

DO NOT GO! I got the oxtails which wasn't that bad. But the dressing was DRY. The broccoli cheese and rice casserole was extra extra dry. The rice was stuck together. The gravy was so dark and dry that it was clumpy and dried up by the time we got home. I I literally threw the whole plate in the trash and forgot to take a picture. I spent $20 and I'm pissed. Oh the cranberry sauce was good... but I should have known the food would be nasty because it all looked dry on the buffet anyway. I'm super mad and DO NOT recommend this place at all. THE END read more

Excellent customer service along with great food!!! I get a vegetarian plate because I don't eat meat, the variety of choice are awesome.... I normally get collards, black eye peas, cabbage, sweet yams and bake Mac n Cheese....just sitting here typing this is making me hungry.....I highly recommend this place!!! I would have given it 5 starts but I took one away due to the proportions of the servings....they could give a little more per serving.... read more

This is real soul food y'all. My mouth started watering when I walked in the door. We ordered the 10pc family meal w/chicken, collards and yams on Thursday and it was so good we came back Friday to order the fried fish, Mac, lima beans and yams. Everything was good. The fish was so piping hot the young lady at the front desk brought it to my car with an oven mit & secured it in the trunk. (They also had my sides in a sealed plastic bag so I didn't have to worry about anything spilling in my car). Speaking of, the customer service is impeccable. They are patient while ordering and I got a call from Ms. GiGi to let me know that an item I ordered wasn't available at the time(sweet potato pies) but that she'd keep me posted. I got a call from her later with an updated ETA. This type of customer service is almost nonexistent nowadays. The menu is priced very fairly and I'm glad to know I've discovered this restaurant, shoot, I hate that I'm late to the party! read more
