Went for the biscuits, but our very wise waitress, Adriana, warned us that the biscuits were made with lard. Well that knocked out a bunch or breakfast options. She was so sweet and actually went to the kitchen and marked the menu pointing out lard-free menu choices. On the menu. Using black ink dots. Above and beyond. So we regrouped our breakfast plans and went mainly vegetarian. The Herbivore was absolutely delicious! Antebellum cheese grits topped with garlicky kale, romanesco and a soft boiled egg. We added a second egg. Split with my hubby. So good!! My sister-in-law had the brioche French toast. French toast topped with honey better, fresh berries and pecan granola. Served with maple syrup. Amazing! Added the duck fat breakfast potatoes. Who knew that the flavor would be so enhanced with the onions, peppers and duck fat. Get this side! Not a coffee drinker, but my hubby really enjoyed the coffee that is sourced from Cusco, Peru. Adriana made sure that the cups were always full and hot. Thank you for the VIP service at Fixe Southern House. Resident discount applied. Born from Opelousas, Louisiana, breakfast served with a huge helping of southern hospitality.

We started with the biscuits and cinnamon roll. I would recommend both. The biscuits came with a jam, honey and whipped butter. The cinnamon roll, which may look a bit underwhelming had a such a great crispy texture on the outside while still being fluffy on the inside. The icing wasn't too sweet and complimented the roll nicely. For the table, we had the pollo frito biscuit w/duck fat potatoes, Brisket Benedict w/okra and the Fixe Breakfast entree w/maple sausage and potatoes. The pollo Frito was delicious, the chicken was seasoned well and maintained crunch even within the biscuit. Duck fat potatoes were also good but were even better after adding some salt. The brisket benny was okay, the texture of the brisket was very odd and didn't really hold up to the egg. Although the okra had a great flavor the batter was a bit too thick which made it chewy. The Fixe breakfast was great and the maple sausage was perfect. Our waitress was Adriana, she was great and very helpful. Overall we would definitely come back and look forward to trying dinner one night.

There were four of us at the table, each person ordering something different. Apparently, this is one of those places where you just can't go wrong. Everyone was 100% satisfied with the taste, texture, and presentation of the food. Our server was Chloe, very efficient, fun, and knowledgeable. They picked out a very nice Malbec for us, extremely tasty and very reasonably priced. Which could be sad about all of our hors d'oeuvres and courses. You've got to have the shashimi peppers, I don't think I've ever had sweeter, more delicious peppers of that variety. A winner!! This one easily earns five stars

Before choosing to dine here, I strongly suggest reading the owner's responses to negative reviews…read more They may tell you everything you need to know about how ownership views the customers supporting this business. Unfortunately, our experience firsthand only reinforced that impression. We were a party of six, four adults and two kids. They were clearly short staffed, with one person covering the entire floor and bar and the owner working in the kitchen. We completely understood that and were patient. After an extremely long wait, the kids' entree they were splitting came out last and was wrong. We asked for it to be remade, but they were so hungry from waiting that they ultimately ate the incorrect meal rather than continue waiting. After finishing, we waited more than 20 minutes just to pay and eventually had to take my card to the server. When the check came, we had been charged for BOTH the incorrect entree and the replacement. After pointing this out, we were told, "Don't worry about it, we'll fix it later." I asked that it be corrected before I paid. Another 15 minutes later, we received the corrected check and discovered an automatic gratuity had been added. I asked to speak with the owner and calmly explained that I understood they were short staffed. However, given the excessive wait, incorrect food, double charge, and overall experience, I was surprised by the automatic gratuity and that we were charged for the incorrect meal at all. His response was by far the worst part of the experience. He was dismissive and condescending, rolled his eyes while I was speaking, and showed absolutely no concern about our experience. At the end of our conversation, I told him that I thought speaking with him directly was the right thing to do rather than simply leaving a negative review. After his response, I told him I now planned to leave one. His response was: "Go for it. Go crazy with it." So, here it is. Mistakes happen. Restaurants get short staffed. Food comes out wrong. I can understand all of that. What I cannot understand is an owner treating a customer with such disregard after that customer made every effort to be patient and address the situation respectfully and directly. Customer service starts at the top, and unfortunately, this experience spoke volumes. We obviously will not be returning. And based on the dismissive and combative responses you've left to seemingly every other negative review, I fully expect your response to this one will only reinforce the point: when customers praise your business, their support is welcomed but, when they have a legitimate complaint, their experience is dismissed, argued with, or treated as though it simply doesn't matter. That is an incredibly unfortunate way to treat the very people whose money and support allow your business to exist in the first place.

Had a great experience. I ordered the 10 piece family pack to take home, and I had to wait 20…read moreminutes while they cooked it. Got home and the chicken was still warm. It was seasoned perfectly - it obviously had been brined. Exactly the right amount of crust on the meat. It was some of the best fried chicken we have tasted since Allen's Fried Chicken in Sweetwater closed. The greens were perfectly cooked, as well - soft, but not overcooked into mush, and they had a great flavor. Only thing I didn't really like was the mac & cheese - it was a little bland. Good texture, but needed something. Mustard or worchester sauce, something like that to offset the cheese. Also liked the ambiance of the restaurant. It was just a little divey, in a good way. I can't stand restaurants that obviously were decorated by some corporate interior designer to not be offensive to anyone but at the same time project the corporate brand to the point they beat it into your head relentlessly. Drew's, on the other hand, feels like a neighborhood bar, only with soul food instead of beer. And while I've read that some folks have been treated rudely, I had a great experience. The lady taking my order was nice to me, so I was nice right back to her. Maybe that's the secret to good customer service? Treat your server like a human being and they'll return the favor? Anyway, I really like this place. I just wish they were open for supper.

I was once a regular customer and have visited this restaurant many times in the past. Every now and then, I'll give it another try to see if things have improved, but unfortunately, today's experience was much like my previous ones. The food was disappointing as well. The meat was very bland, and some of my favorite items from previous visits were not available. I understand that restaurants can change their menus or run out of certain items, but combined with the lack of flavor, it made the overall meal less enjoyable. What was even more disappointing, however, was the customer service. The woman who appeared to be part of the ownership was once again rude and unprofessional. Unfortunately, this is not the first time I've had this type of interaction with her. I really wanted to be able to say that things had improved, but based on today's visit, I don't feel comfortable recommending this restaurant or returning anytime soon. Good food and welcoming customer service both matter, and unfortunately, neither met my expectations today.

They are located on a corner and parking is limited. I found street parking on the side street, about a block down in front of a house. We walked inside Gus's about 11:30 am on a Wednesday. They were busy' but had a number of open tables. There are mostly square and rectangular 4-top tables. We chose one by the front windows. A moment after we sat down, our server, Joe K came by to greet us and he took our drink order. Menu's are at the table, so we studied a bit and were ready for Joe when he brought our drinks. I ordered: - Unsweetened Iced Tea - 3 Piece Dark Chicken Plate (my choice: leg, leg, thigh) with Greens and BBQ Beans My wife ordered: 2 Piece White Chicken Plate (breast, wing) with Mac-Cheese and BBQ Beans The chicken was the star for sure. The BBQ Beans weren't special but were decent. The Greens, decent. With each meal plate, the chicken is served on a slice of white bread. The chicken was fried to a deep brown and was real tasty. My dark meat was juicy and tender. My wife's white meat was drier but normal for white meat. My wife's felt the chicken skin was maybe overcooked as it was tough. It was fine to me. I ate her skin :) We'll be back to Gus's!

Finallllllly! A soul food vegan eatery with mush mush flavor!…read more So, hubbs and I were hungry and decided to give Mush Flavor a try. Boy aren't I glad we did. For more details see below. The location: this location is a part of a ghost kitchen. It is located in the corner of a small parking lot. You'll see plenty of food delivery signs above a building...that's the building you want to order from. The interior was just a box room, with a couple of chairs and an Ipad to order from. The service: so, apparently there's normally a receptionist or a welcomer who greets you, but there was noone there the day that we visited. It left us kind of guessing. However, two of the owners came out and made sure they checked in on customers to make sure everyone was taken care of. That was nice. They kept up updated on our order and what was going on in the kitchen. I appreciated that service and updates. The food: the food was goodt! Okay, so the mac n cheese was good. So, I'm not a cheese person. However, their Mac n cheese could've have used some more cheese. Now the actually macaroni was cooked to perfection though. The macaroni really good. The overall, mac n cheese just could've have had a little bit more flavor/cheese. The chicken! OMG the chicken was everything. It had a very bold flavor of spices. The chicken was crispy enough, but not too crispy. It wasn't mushy but was firm. I wish I would've mixed my macaroni n cheese and my chicken together. However that chicken was gobbled up so fast. Overall, I wish the ghost kitchen was a little more welcoming. However the flavor was delicious and I'd definitely be back to try more menu items.

We were a little surprised at the concept of the space. You walk into a small area with seating and…read morethere's a giant iPad with several restaurants to choose from. So this place is a compilation of restaurants in one space that you can't see. There's just a receptionist desk to receive your order. It takes the personal aspect away it feels cold and soulless to just not talk to anyone but I guess that's the way the world is going. Some of the business owners did peek their heads out and greet us and they were nice but then went back to prepping and cooking their orders. There's no music or entertainment or anything just a waiting room with nothing in it but a bathroom. I get it you get the benefit of starting a restaurant without being in your house you have a nice clean place to cook and serve orders and your overhead is extremely low. It's a great start to businesses but it's very impersonal. I ordered the chicken and waffles with a side of Mac and cheese. I feel like this meal should not have been 30 bucks especially with the money that's saved from not having a stand alone restaurant with employees like cooks, hostess, bus boys and managers. My chicken was really good the seasoning was on point and delicious. The waffle was soggy and soft but I think a lot of people like their waffle that way I prefer a crispy waffle. I'm sure they could easily make it that way but you can't freaking talk to anyone to communicate that request, so you get whatever the computer tells you you can get. The Mac and cheese was ok it could have been cheesier and more creamy I added some non vegan ingredients to get it the way I like it but I have cooked vegan Mac and cheese dishes that had more of a consistency of vegan cheese and noodles. It's good has potential it just needs more love. It wasn't worth 5 bucks though since I had to add to it. So to be honest my 4 stars come from the fact that this is a good business with friendly service. It has great potential and I want to see them succeed since it's a BOB. As a whole I am not a fan of this order from an iPad then wait for your food and not talk to anyone concept. The concept gets 2 stars because it sucks.
