A friend and I recently ate lunch here together. It's a great soul food restaurant, located in the…read moretype of neighborhood that I'm only comfortable frequenting during the daylight hours. On this day of the week (Wednesday), the restaurant featured their fried chicken. A local resident had strongly and repeatedly recommended Mae's food. My friend and I both ordered the fried chicken. I'm sure glad that I did! It was perfectly breaded, seasoned, and cooked. We were given our choice of cut, and we both chose chicken breasts. It was nicely-sized and fresh. I would definitely recommend it, and I would order it again. For side items, the collard greens, sweet potatoes, and blackeye(d) peas were all delicious and properly prepared. I ate every last bit, especially since the portion sizes were a bit too small. I would suppose that tiny portions dramatically reduce food waste. The square of cornbread was quite welcomed. I had also heard that Mae's cooks up some delicious pork chops (on Thursdays) and meatloaf (some Fridays). I look forward to trying those as well. The building doesn't have central air conditioning, but rather a series of window units. During the height of summer, it can get uncomfortably hot inside the restaurant, so they do a lot of take out business. If you want to eat inside, be sure to pick a cool/cloudy day. Also, the parking situation is a bit chaotic, with no designated spaces marked out. It's kind of a free-for-all. The safest bet is to backup into an open spot, just for better visibility when you leave. I made the mistake of parking head-in. It took me forever to back out. The street that runs in front of the restaurant is full of fast and careless drivers. Be sure to take some cash with you, because this place doesn't accept any credit or debit cards.

1. 18% gratuity added to ALL checks, not just large parties. What happened to the days when people…read morehad to earn their tips? This 18% added to every check is pure crap. 2. Food was expensive but delicious. 3. Bartender spent more time texting or facebooking than she did serving her clients. I was ready to order but I had to sit there and watch her doing something on her phone for several minutes before she finally looked up and realized I was looking at her. There were only two of us in the entire restaurant at that time. She brought me my side salad appetizer and I had to sit there staring at my salad until she figured out I had no fork. She was embarrassed and she finally brought me some silverware and a napkin. I had to get up and go get salt and pepper from halfway down the bar. Does this sound like an 18% gratuity was warranted? I paid the bill, but doubtful I'll ever return.

Recenty Renovated…read more I've stayed at the Holiday Inn in Blythville a few tomes over the years. Downstairs they have two restaurants, one is a Perkins and the other is Bistro Eleven 21. The Bistro serves classic American fare and is known locally for it's collection of Craft Beers. The last time I ate here I the hotel was ungoing renovations and we had to eat in one of the conference rooms. Now that the Bistro and the hotel are renovated, I choodse to eat here again. One of my favourite starters at the Bistro is their Bacon-Wrapped Shrimp which I have had countless times. As always it was cooked just right without overcooking the shrimp. For my Mian course I had a grilled 'Chipotle' PorkChop from the new menu. This 14 oz. bone -in Pork chop Chipotle Pork Chop is served frenched and seasoned with chipotle rub then rubbed with creamy bacon and mango sauce and served with herb rice & vegetable du jour. This is a huge meal but worth every penny and a nice change from having barbecue, fish or steak which are my goto's when I travel. The Chop was cooked medium-well but still tender and a bright pink in the center. The cmbined flavours make this a dish I will try again when I'm in the area next.

We ordered the veg pizza and the a meat combo pizza - imagine yourself giving your 9 years old child a permission to invent a pizza and just make it . That was the quality and taste . This was not a pizza - it made me want to get even a little Caesar's 5$ pizza instead - it was that bad. We also ordered mozzarella sticks but those never made it to the table (person at the counter : " oh sorry I completely forgot about them") It probably took 20-25 mins for these 2 "pizzas" to come to our table , god only knows what the staff were working on - certainly not on making a good-tasting pizza.. My advise is to keep on looking for other options for a late , middle-of-nowhere dinner .

I took a chance with their 10 ounce filet mignon steak, and am glad that I did. It was cooked precisely to my specifications: pan seared and browned, with zero charring.

Our waitress was knowledgeable and attentive. She really wanted to make sure that my meal was good. I sat in a booth, but it was a tight fit.

I'll be in the area again soon and chances are I'll end up here again.
