You place your order like a cafeteria style some things take longer like fried chicken and fry fish. Clearly, this place was popular because the line was long. But moved pretty quickly. My family ordered a variety of foods so we all try them together. I thoroughly enjoyed the meatloaf and fried catfish. The mac & cheese wasn't my favorite, but it wasn't bad and the sweet potatoes were very good. I will definitely return again!

The lamb chops were top tier (that's what I ate) but the fried chicken that my wife had was mind blowing. I'm not generally given to hyperbole. Seriously: try this chicken.

I purchased gift cards during Covid to help support local restaurants during shut down, and I was pleasantly surprised that we could still use them in 2026! We had tried to use them in 2022, but were told the restaurant was small and could not accommodate our party of 8, even early on a Sunday. Fast forward 4 years! We made a reservation for a party of 4. It would've been nice to know the restaurant was on the second floor with no elevator, but perhaps that is my lack of inquiry. We were warmly greeted. Our server was absolutely fantastic! She made wonderful recommendations, and our meal was delicious! We had the crab dip, cornbread muffins, fried chicken and catfish entrees with yams and collard greens. Our family is from the South (KY, NC, TN, VA, MS, & AL) and we cook southern food on a regular basis. The yams were perfectly cooked and sweetened. The collard greens had just enough density, not runny or too salty. YUM!!! The chicken was tasty and moist. Catfish was seasoned and prepared perfectly and absolutely delicious also. Served with Frank's! We finished it off with the skillet cookie dessert, shared by all. A great way to end a really wonderful meal. The restaurant wasn't busy, so food service could've been a little faster, but we enjoyed a leisurely early dinner. My only other comment is that with glass top tables, you almost have to use Windex when tables turn over. The water streaks on all the glass top just make it look more like a greasy spoon or diner and does not do justice to the great service or the quality of the food. I don't usually do catfish at home, so we will be back for more!

I was recently in Detroit and decided to try Gus's World Famous Fried Chicken through DoorDash, and…read moreit was a great choice. The chicken still had a nice crisp to it, which is always a gamble with fried food. The flavor absolutely delivered: perfectly seasoned with that signature spicy kick that builds without overwhelming. Juicy on the inside, crispy on the outside--exactly what you hope for. The sides held their own too. The mac and cheese was creamy and comforting. If I had one note, it would be that the spice level might catch you off guard if you're not expecting it. But personally, I love spicy food, so no complaints there. Overall, a great experience even via delivery. I'd definitely order again, and next time I'm in Detroit, I'd love to try it fresh in person.

This was my first time eating inside of slows. Our server was incredibly kind and patient. She…read moredidn't rush us at all and had great suggestions. I got the deuces, which is two meats, two sides, and bread and pickles for $19. The pulled pork was great, the mashed sweet potato's and baked beans were phenomenal. I would go back just for the sides! The reason I'm giving 4 stars and not 5, the chicken thigh was OK. The deuces allows you to pick two types of meat, but there's a $5 upcharge for brisket & ribs aren't available so you can only choose between pork, chicken thigh, or vegetarian bbq at that price.. hence why I got the chicken thigh.

I'm really disappointed with this experience. I ordered at the bar and when I got home, I realized…read moremy vegetarian sandwiches were made with pork. I called right away, and instead of offering a refund or a simple fix, they required me to drive back and return the incorrect sandwiches before they would remake them. That meant finding parking again and waiting while the new order was prepared. By the time I finally got home, all of the food was cold and hard. On top of that, the vegetarian "mock meat" had a strange spoiled taste. Mind you we regularly eat this exact meal. Overall, it was a frustrating process and the food quality did not make up for the inconvenience. I wouldn't order again based on this experience.

The cornbread was dense and okay. For our main course we ordered turkey chops, and they came with two sides. We chose mac and cheese and red beans and rice. The turkey chops were ok but the sides were trash. The red beans and rice were (see picture) dry and the macaroni and cheese (see pictures) as well. The mac and cheese was cheeseless.We also ordered the catfish dinner with okra and yams.The yams were delicious and the okra was okay. The catfish skin was dark like old oil was used. It appeared to be cornmeal fried and hard. I should have specified how I wanted them. We also order the waffle and the chickens and there were no complaints. Honestly, we've been to Cornbread many times. Previously, I've always given 5 stars and haven't ever had any complaints but something drastically changed. The drinks as well didn't taste the same and we were told that the bartender was new. We didn't want to complain or send our food back due to our past experiences at other restaurants but we did take pictures. The service was great. But honestly, I do not believe that we will ever return.
