The point is plentiful, delicious, so much to choose from and the customer service is next to none! The restaurant was filled with diverse patrons, the mood was set to great old school music.

A Little Southern Soul Food Stop in Orange, TX!…read more We stopped at Real Southern Cooking while passing through Orange after hearing it was a great spot for good, old-fashioned Southern Soul Food cooking. I had a couple of sides, while my friends each tried different menu items. Everyone agreed the food was tasty, flavorful, and definitely worth the stop! It's always nice to discover a local small business along the way, and I'm so glad we decided to stop in. I especially love supporting small businesses whenever I can. Definitely adding Real Southern Cooking to my list of places to visit again. If you're passing through Orange, on a weekday, it's worth making the stop! We'll definitely be back!

"I need to eat here some time." I kept saying that every time I crossed the railroad track on the…read moreway to the government offices. Real Southern Cooking appeared to be the tiny self-proprietor choke-and-puke that I love. Well, I tried it today. The Hunny and I have been married for 21 years, and between all of the choices, this is the one where we went for our anniversary. Real Southern Cooking looks more cafe than restaurant. Not fancy at all, just a few tables in a small area. The entire menu fits on two 8.5x11 pieces of paper on the wall. It appeals to those who say "I just want good food at a low price" - um, like me. It felt down home, too. We were surprised to see a Hispanic mama & her son behind the counter; service with a smile. The black man I expected in the back was seated at a table, finishing his lunch, and he was not only informative about the spice on everything, but friendly after witnessing us praying before eating. Some utility workers came in too, "I wish I could order everything!" It appears to be a place with a daily clientele. We both had chicken: the Hunny, chicken spaghetti, me, fried chicken. She liked hers, but found it a little spicy, like the chef included Rotel Tomatoes in the sauce. I had three small pieces, and it reminded me of extra-crunchy skin at places like Krispy Krunchy Chicken. The meat was tender and not too hot. 2 sides are included, and the amount of red beans & rice I got was larger than a mere side. Real Southern Cooking is indeed one of those places that fits the Southern diner stereotype, including the good food at a low price. Not totally Texas, but totally Southern. If you're traveling on I-10, it is located downtown, a few miles off the freeway. A few more items on the menu would take it up to 5-star territory; as you see, many Yelpers have it there now. Enjoy it now, ya hear?

Will definitely stop here again.

The half portion of chicken fried steak was huge! I couldn't eat it all. The green beans were so tasty. A roll was served on the side that reminded me of those delicious rolls I used to eat when I was in school on the school lunch tray. Mouth watering! I was too full for dessert, so I ordered a slice of the banana split pie to take home. Wow! The crust was flaky and crisp. I'll be dreaming about it!

Occasionally all you need is a good game, a cold beer, and something tasty to snack on, and this…read morespot delivered exactly that. I came in with one goal: find a comfortable bar seat, watch a soccer match, and enjoy an appetizer and a beer. Mission accomplished! There are two entrances. One that brings you right near the bar and another at the front where you can be greeted and seated by a server. I opted for the bar and kicked off the evening with a beer and the skillet queso. Let's talk about that queso for a second. It was memorable. There was something about the flavor that really stood out and had me going back for "just one more bite" more times than I'd like to admit. The bartender was attentive, there were plenty of TVs showing the match, and the overall atmosphere was relaxed and easygoing. It was the perfect setting to unwind and enjoy the game. I'd definitely come back for another match and next time, I may have to venture beyond the queso and explore more of the menu.

We shared the meal that includes an appetizer and dessert, which was more than enough food for us. For the appetizer, we chose the fried green tomatoes. They were perfect. Our entrée was chicken-fried chicken with mashed potatoes and fried okra, and every bite was divine. My husband also ordered a side of collard greens, and they were excellent. Then came dessert. Buttermilk chess pie is my husband's favorite, but he rarely orders it because he's afraid it won't measure up. After one bite, he declared it "righteous," which means it passed his very high standards. I thought it was fantastic too. The service was great, and the restaurant has a quaint, family-owned feel. Definitely worth the stop.
