On my most recent visit, everything was bland and lacked seasoning. The rice was dry, and overall the meal was disappointing compared to what I remember from previous visits. It feels like there may have been a change in ownership or management at some point because the food and overall quality are not what they used to be. I hope they can make improvements and get back to the standards that made me a repeat customer in the past.

Forge Southern Comfort Food is farm-to-table at its finest. According to Kimberly, our wonderful…read morehostess, Forge sources many of its products from local farms and gives traditional Southern dishes an innovative twist. Three of us met there for lunch today, and it was delicious. Two of us had the Chicken and Waffles: thick, tender waffles topped with beautifully seasoned fried chicken thighs, then doused tableside by Kimberly with house-made maple-jalapeño syrup. Melting butter and scattered pecans added just the right crunch and richness. I also tried the blue corn grits--creamy, savory, and delicious. Our third guest had the Eggs Benedict with collard greens: perfectly poached eggs, silky hollandaise, and greens that were absolutely "grandma good." Drinks included a great sangria and spicy Bloody Marys, and dessert was carrot cake with homemade vanilla ice cream--golden yellow, egg-rich, custardy, and speckled with real vanilla. Great service, casual ambiance, and down-home, chef-cooked food with a touch of grandma's magic. Definitely recommend.

The menu is very small, so I expected perfection in the taste. I ordered jerk chicken, rice with peas, steamed veggies, plantain bananas, and Jamaican cream soda pop for $11. The steamed veggies turned out to be peppered cabbage and carrots (two things that I've never eaten together). The rice and peas turned out to be dirty rice with red beans. The chicken looked so delicious because it was blackened yet covered with a layer of cooked-on jerk juice. As juicy as the chicken looked, it was dry on the inside and I was wishing that i had any kind of dipping sauce to eat with it. I'm hoping that today was an off day for this restaurant because I'm going to come back here to try more of their menu (Yesterday, they closed early because they ran out of jerk juice).

I got a half rack of ribs with no sauce, collard greens, and green beans. The ribs were good but a little burnt / overcooked. Not terribly overcooked though. They were seasoned well. The collard greens and green beans were great, perfectly cooked and seasoned. And the prices are great, $13.75 for a half rack of ribs and 2 sides. I can definitely see myself ordering from here again.

After the friendly greeting and being seated, you can imagine our surprise when this hot sweet delicacy came out to be devoured. There's actually a lot of room in this place and very well set up. We ordered a couple of their specialties barbecue pulled pork sandwich platter comes with two sides fried chicken sandwich fried cauliflower as an appetizer. Catfish and Whiting combo. We got string beans, collard greens, macaroni and cheese, sweet potatoes, baked beans and potato salad so we're gonna try a little bit of everything. Check out the full video on my YouTube channel. @verseinator hopefully we can do a more in-depth video later on this is what's happening. First thing that came out with a cauliflower bites we both agreed we would've preferred if they were a little bigger but flavor wise so addicting we couldn't stop eating them. It was like a little popcorn cauliflower bites eight out of 10 definite smash. The catfish and Whiting was fried to perfection, soft delicate white meat, not overcooked every single side transported me back to be a teen teenager grown-up around the Sunday dinner table. The last thing we actually smashed was the sandwiches the fried chicken sandwich which is known for with flavorful very tender. You can tell she pounded out her own cutlet and hand breaded fried to perfection. The pulled pork sandwich was like sweet meat candy each bite of the pork butt was soft and tender, and that sweet sauce just complimented the brioche bun all the sides. I can't talk about enough and I'm waiting for her to come back around so I can get a refill on my watermelon Kool-Aid get down here if you're looking for some good soul food and some barbecue this is your spot.

After being influenced by yet another instagran review, I decided to try this place. Im convinced a lot of these so called food critics on social media aren't very honest. The review I watched said this place had the best mac & cheese but im sad to report she lied. The mac was the WORST dish on the platter. No flavor & definitely not made with the 4/5 cheeses they claim. The sweet potatoes were okay. Nothing special. The lamb was the best thing I had. I liked the sauce was really good and they were cooked well. Lamb chops arent really considered soul food but I definitely expected the sides to be on point based on the reviews I saw. Sadly, I'm in absolutely no rush to eat here again
