    first couple of times, yes. the last couple time, never again. each visit the portions shrink. the last time the ribs were cut wrong and over cook. called about it, no support. even the sauce change, I'm taking back all recommendations here and suggest going someplace else. thank me later.

    The food was delicious! The Cornish hen was juicy and crispy to perfection. Mac n Cheese and Yams were perfect. Wednesday and Sunday are my favorite time to visit for the soul food . Chef Keisha is nice, the service is good for the most part.

    A friend recently sent a post to me from Instagram of a man who came to King's Soul Food Gallery…read moreand got hooked on the pancakes. That post piqued my interest and my appetite. That, of course, meant I had to see if the hype was real. THE HYPE IS REAL. I went early for breakfast. I ordered biscuits with sausage gravy, eggs scrambled with cheddar, and potatoes. On the side, I ordered two pancakes. Everything is cooked to order, which is always plus because you aren't getting something reheated or microwaved. The quality of the food is also an indicator because you can tell by texture and temperature throughout what is on the plate. The cook came to the table to get confirmation of how I wanted my food plated. I gathered that some people are picky about their food touching, so he wanted to know if I was okay that the gravy may touch my eggs and potatoes. Servers, cooks, and chefs usually never confer with diners to inquire about peeves like food touching, so it was a bonus as service goes. On to the pancakes, you really don't need syrup. The pancakes are butter and lightly sweetened. For anyone who has had Johnny cakes, the pancakes are reminiscent of those but without cornmeal. The other thing about the pancakes was that they held heat instead of getting cold immediately. Some people may rattle off how some other place or how their own pancakes are the best in the world. Be that as it may, the pancakes that I had at King's Soul Food Gallery were the best that "I" have had. I will have to make my way back to sample their lunch. There is some fried catfish, collard greens, and sweet potatoes that I want to try. THE HYPE IS REAL.

    I had the famous pancakes and they were really delicious and buttery. They almost taste it like a…read morecake to service. It was really nice and it was fairly quick for me for breakfast at the ambience gives really cozy and warm definitely a nice restaurant.

    Found this spot very near our new home and we are happy to have Morrison's around! My partner said…read moreit was the first time she's ever enjoyed soul food. We got it off too good to go so we didn't get to choose the surprise bag, but, as the gentlemen's who plated up our food said, we will most DEFINITELY be back. It smelled delicious in there. Black woman owned and we are happy to give them our business. The reviews on Yelp are exactly why it's hard to trust y'all! Hahaha give it a chance, you won't regret it

    I've been looking for a good traditional chicken & dumplings since I came back to Chicago in 2022…read moreand discovered that Army & Lou's was closed. A while back I discovered that Morrison's had it as a special on Wednesdays so went down south and tried it. It was exactly as I love it, EXCEPT the dish was soaked in spices that made it nearly impossible to eat. I LIKE spicy food, and this was insane. After that, I tried to call and ask if I could arrange to get some ,made without the heat. I called and called, left messages and tried to talk with the manager, and no one ever called back or addressed my question. That's too bad too, cause even with the distance away I live in the city I would have been a semi regular for it. So, if anyone knows of another good c&d like Army & Lou's used to have, PLEASE write me at cmseigel@gmail.com! :)

    Pearl's Place is definitely worth a visit if you're looking for comforting Southern soul food. The…read moremac and cheese, yams, greens, and fried green tomatoes were all excellent and full of flavor. The only disappointment was the fried chicken. It wasn't bad, but it was just okay and didn't live up to the rest of the meal. If the chicken had been as good as the sides, this easily would have been a 5-star experience. The service was good overall. Our waitress was very friendly and attentive, but she never asked if we wanted anything to drink besides water or if we'd like dessert. Those small details would have made the experience even better. Overall, I'd definitely come back for the amazing sides, and hopefully the fried chicken is better next time.

I said fried chicken, mac n cheese and greens. She said ok we have that. My spouse said she wanted meat loaf, mac n cheese and string beans. While sitting I realized I wanted potato salad and bread pudding so I added it. I realized I enjoyed ordering not from what I saw on a menu but what I had a taste for and that was a great experience. Thank you Pearls. My food was amazing everything was seasoned well except my greens. Would I go back yes indeed. The bread pudding was the busy. Yummy for my tummy Sorry I finished all my food before writing this review believe me the seasoning and portion size was OUTSTANDING!!!!!
