    Service was good Ambiance was clean and inviting The food was hot and fresh. The BBQ chicken was cooked and seasoned well. The banana pudding was calling my name and it was not disappointing. An excellent decision for my Sunday dinner.

    Just me!

    Great black owned establishment with great food and service. Stopped in on New Years Day to be pleasantly greeted by the owner Marvin and Randal who helped assist me up front. Great selection of soul food that all looked delightfully tasty. I settled on Oxtails with Rice, Black Eye PeasX and Cabbage. With a side of Catfish. My total was $36 which was great for all that I got. Although a holiday the food and service didn't disappoint. Will be back to try a fried pork chop and fried chicken.

    Oh my, this was so good. I was looking for a hearty meal, and this hit the spot. I found Granny's Soul Food by driving around my hotel. I peered in the window, and it looked like casual dining, so I went inside. At first, I was going for the pork chops, which are cooked to order. But my eyes betrayed me, and I saw the oxtails. This is my third time having oxtails; each time, they get better and better. Now, I must say the oxtails today are the best of the other two. They were so tender I used a plastic fork to get the meat from the bone. It slid right off without pulling. The sweet potatoes were good and light, not too caramelized, and I loved the greens. I will most definitely be back because, for one, the service was great, and the food was delicious. Plus, I want to try the pork chops, ribs, macaroni, and cabbage!

    This was my first time here and let's just say, this wasn't for me. I'm a little disappointed cause I was really in the mood for something other than the traditional fast food spots that are in this area. First, the prices are extremely over priced for what is being served. I noticed that off hand and I should've turned around but I stuck it out, hoping the food would be a treat. Most of the meat items are $14.99+ that's your chicken, then $16.99 for your ribs and maybe pork and it goes up from there. I have never paid $14.99 for a leg quarter before but hey, you live and you learn. I placed my order at 11:30am and to me, upon 2nd peek into the foggy glass window of the buffet line, the food didn't look entirely fresh but again, I'm not sure how long they had been open. However, this was now strike 2 and I knew better. The leg quarter was decent size and I repeat, , I have never paid $14.99 for a piece of baked chicken. It wasn't season that well and possibly overcooked cause it was tough in the inside. The Mac & cheese looked sketchy from the start but my child requested that and you know a child can't resist noodles and cheese. The black eye peas were strike 3, a very big no no. This was the most deceptive menu item cause these looked good! They are cooked with turkey meat so I just knew somebody put both their feet in the pot. But no ma'am. They left the feet out the pot and the thrill was gone! The BEP's are lacking seasoning and the beans were hard, possibly from the previous day pot even. Overall, my review is based on overpriced food and the lack of flavor. The quality of the food does not support the price. With that price point, there should be a fresh rotation of food daily but the beans definitely were either from the previous day or just done wrong and the chicken is way over priced. I have went to similar concepts and paid $10-$12 for the same plate of food and had better results. I really hope this was a one off :(

    Baked Chicken Meal

    This meal is awful... I should've left like I wanted to after I saw what they had to offer, but I stayed and I am paying for it. I got the baked chicken and it's dry. The macaroni and greens have no flavor.... Needless to say for $40, I'm highly disappointed. This customer service was lacking as well. I can tell you I will not be back, but I wanted something other than fast food after spending time with my mother who is in the hospital. I wanted to feel some comfort food on my belly, but I guess I will have to get back in my own kitchen if this is the new Soulfood cause it definitely lacks soul!

    Ribs, Candied Yams and Collard Greens

    The food was delicious and the customer service was up to par. I enjoyed the relaxing ambiance and throwback RnB music that played softly in the background.

    Fried Pork Chop, Macaroni & Cheese, Rice & Gravy

    GREAT SERVICE! This was my first time coming and will definitely be back off the customer service alone!Randall was great. I ordered the fried pork chop plate with the mac and rice and gravy! Very good (as you can see I've already dug in)

    Oxtails and rice, with sweet potatoes and squash

    We were greeted as soon as we walked in . This is by far the best soul food I've had in the four years I've lived here! I ordered oxtails, sweet potatoes and squash. Turkey wings cabbage, black eye peas and green beans were purchased as well! Let me say, im ordering another oxtail plate to go!

    OMG, first visit. Spectacular Baked Chicken with rice and gravy, cabbage, and candid yams…read more Food was hot and seasoned the Soul Food way! Ms. Gwen was friendly and professional. Small business with great flavor and very good prices. I'll be returning soon.

    I visited this spot on Easter and overall I had a really great experience. Yes, the wait was long,…read morebut honestly I expected that because of the holiday. If anything, I took it as a good sign. I noticed people weren't leaving or giving up on the line, they were staying and waiting, and to me that says the food must be good. Now let's get into the food... because this is where they really shine. I've had a lot of soul food around Atlanta, and I can honestly say flavor can be hit or miss depending on the place. But whoever is in that kitchen here, they are doing their thing. Everything tasted very homemade, like real deal, cooked with love type of food. The cornbread gave very much old school, just right. The peach cobbler? Absolutely outstanding. It's actually rare to find a restaurant peach cobbler that truly tastes homemade, and this one definitely did. That alone would make me come back. We ordered the beef meatloaf, mac and cheese, collard greens, lima beans, and dressing. The dressing was especially good, again very homemade and full of flavor. The only small thing I would mention is there wasn't any gravy on the dressing, and I would've loved that. The meatloaf was good, but could've used a bit more sauce since it was just a pinch overcooked. Outside of that, everything was really good. The food was flavorful, the portions were solid, and the prices were very affordable. Overall, I'd definitely rate this place highly. I truly enjoyed it and will be coming back. I'll also be recommending it to my family and friends for sure.

    I can't lie. I was extremely disappointed in my visit to Steve's BBQ…read more Now let me start by saying, I am a BBQ snob. I take BBQ seriously. So when I walked in and found out they did not have ribs, I almost needed a moment of silence. WHAT?! Yes, you read that right. A BBQ place with no ribs. According to the cashier, Steve's didn't have ribs that day. I let it slide because, at the time, they had only been open for a couple of weeks. I believe in giving new businesses grace, especially when they are still getting their rhythm together. They did have a nice little crowd seated inside, which was good to see. I wanted to support them. However, while the doors were open, the place did not feel fully ready from an ambiance standpoint. There was junk behind what looked like the soon to be bar area. Boxes and clutter were visible, and honestly, that takes away from the experience. It is hard to focus on the food when your eyes are trying to figure out if you are in a restaurant or the back room at a storage unit. They did have booths available for customers to sit and enjoy their food, so that was a plus. Since there were no ribs, I ordered a steak hoagie sandwich and asked for extra cheese. Well, the young lady forgot to put my order in, so I ended up waiting over 25 minutes for this hoagie. By the time I got it, I was ready to take a picture, sit in my car, and have my little food review moment. But NOPE. That could not happen because the sandwich was absolutely slathered in "special sauce." It was giving sauce with a side of sandwich. And after all that, there was no extra cheese, which was specifically what I asked for. I was disappointed for three main reasons: no ribs, the order was forgotten, and the sandwich was soggy. I did not even get pictures because I refused to touch my phone and risk turning it into a saucy crime scene. I will not order that sandwich again. One day, I may give Steve's another try because I would still like to actually try the ribs. You know, the BBQ item I expected a BBQ restaurant to have. Ok, that is all. Bye!

    The ambiance was very cozy. The service was over the top…read more The food was AMAZING!!!! Delicious, hot and full of flavor. I definitely will be back.

    A Taste of Heaven Rib Shack - Honest Review…read more I ordered the chicken, potato salad, mac and cheese, and cornbread, and I really expected the food to be off the chain, especially being from New Orleans where flavor is everything. The service was fine, but the food itself missed the mark for me. The seasoning was bland, the sides didn't have that homemade taste I was hoping for, and shortly after eating, I started feeling nauseous, which was disappointing and concerning. I wanted to love it, but the meal just didn't live up to the name or the hype.

    COME HUNGRY! We have passed by so many times and it just wasn't a time to eat and it smelled so…read moregood and you could hear the music blaring. The portions are real man sized so be prepared. At first I thought the prices were a little high but then I saw what all we got and it was well worth what they charge. We actually were confused at first by the Vegan trailer outside. I assumed they cooked in the house and sold out of the food trailer but that is a whole separate business, when I asked for meat they said "over there." We went inside the house and we were greeted by 2 nice beautiful ladies that explained all our questions, as it was our first trip in, and we put our order in. There is a good bit of room inside if you want to dine in but we were on the road so Togo it was. We ordered the 2 ribs lunch, a half rack which was 6 bones and the pork sandwich. I got the hot bbq on the half rack and it was actually medium in hotness just fyi. I'm not a huge fan of beef ribs because most people can't get them tender enough but TOH did the deed and they were fairly tender. We will be back again to try other options.
