The food here is absolutely, positively FABULOUS--exceedingly good and full of flavor, love, and comfort!!! Oh my, oh my, OH MY GOODNESS!!! I could barely contain myself with every single bite--seasoned just right, cooked to perfection, and served with such warmth and care. I'm still thinking about it, still tasting it, and already wishing for more! Now listen--don't walk...RUN there!!! ‍ I mean that literally. Run, drive, fly, float--whatever you have to do! But let me lovingly tell you this: this is NOT fast food. It's made fresh, with intention, and worth every second. So call ahead and pre-order if you're short on time--or bring your patience and be ready to wait a bit. The atmosphere is set up mostly for takeout--so grab your order, head home, and get ready for the blessing you're about to unwrap. You will NOT regret it. Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU to everyone who played a part in this culinary experience--from the kitchen to the servers, to the heart behind the recipes. You truly served something special, something soulful, something unforgettable. May God bless the hands that prepared it!

The menu and food are absolutely Amazing!!!! This is a must-visit if you are passing through Fayetteville. Wonderful customer service, and they also have a New York-style restaurant next door. Therefore, you would be able to get a taste of the Northern or Southern food. Any choice is Great! read more

The smothered turkey wing was absolutely nasty. It tasted like raw meat it stinks as well, the brown packaged gravy is even worse it has no seasoning at all. The greens have 0 seasoning as well. The fries salty and old ..the sweet potatoes was a uncomfortable texture and nasty as well The only thing that is good is the wings, Mac nd cheese. read more

The Food is always fresh, hot, and Delicious. Real Down Home Style Cooking with a Southern Flare

Good hot fish, potato salad is a hit, chicken wings are awesome, collard greens are delicious,

We've tried and LOVED most items on Nita's menu, but her gizzards are the best in the Known Universe. Perfect amount of breaded crunch and touch of gizzardy resistance, yet tender, moist and savory. Any fish or veggies that come out of Nita's kitchen taste like one of my grandmas (may they rest in Peace) cooked them... Her baked beans are addictive. read more

The was prepared properly and was delicious. The portions served was excellent for the price paid.

*lips smack* *lip smack* I'm so sorry that was rude but I was salivating while typing this up lol No really though, thanks to Nita's I found hope in Fayetteville's under world of authenticity. Meaning places that are local one of a kind creating flavors for the masses. Nita does just that. The menu has a variety of items ranging from a super thick burger to soul smiling savory foods. I have been on the hunt for savory home style sides made from generations on down you hear me lol Nita's was on my bookmark list but being in Fayetteville for a year now I'm jaded to driving anything over a 7 minute drive so I hadn't made it here yet but I said forget it, to be satisfied I am treating myself and going. It was worth ittttt! I ordered the flounder meal with 2 sides comes w/ hush puppies. It was all flavored exactly right. Not one thing was like what it this I'm tasting. The flounder kind of reminded me of long John silvers batter but not a match but man it was good. The Mac n cheese was baked but melted cheese... amazing!!!!! The cabbage was a little softer than I would like but that it just me to like crunch. They were seasoned in broth and delicious . All I can keep saying is it was good dagnabit. Oh & if you check in, you get a 10% discount. Be you're going to go try it now right lol read more

Nita's Kitchen - Flounder meal w/ cabbage & Mac n cheese - American Near Me - Fayetteville, North Carolina

I came in at 3pm on a Friday, and I was greeted by both Nita and her employee. Nita is a very nice woman, we chatted while I looked over her abundant menu. And she offered me some of her birthday cake! Everything looked great- she has all the southern dishes with all the fixings. It's Friday, and today she has her 10 piece grilled/fried shrimp special with 2 sides and 2 hush puppies for $13.99. I ordered fried shrimp with a side of greens, Mac and sweet potatoes. Whenever I eat ANY soul food, I ALWAYS get the Mac, sweet potatoes and greens as my sides, and it never fails. Today it failed horribly. The cost for my meal after tax and the extra side was $16.37, so I just paid $20 with tip. My food came out quickly, and like I said before the service was great. I took it to go. When I opened my food, the first thing I noticed was how teeny the shrimp were. The portions in general were very small for the price. I wasn't expecting giant jumbo shrimp, but for $14, larger shrimp would've been nice because they were definitely the highlight of the dish. Seasoned and cooked to perfection- I could've easily eaten 20 of them because they were the size of popcorn shrimp and just as addicting- real tasty. The hush puppies were also really good. The Mac n cheese was curdled. When you burn the cheese sauce, the sauce breaks it ruins the taste and texture of the Mac. It was chalky in both flavor and texture. The greens. :( They were not only under seasoned, but they were greasy and smelled like old grease. The first time I couldn't finish my side of greens ever in life. The greens smelled and tasted exactly like the restaurant-of old grease. It was a let down. The sweet potatoes were mushy and watery- they leaked everywhere out of the container. They were just ok- def not worth paying an additional charge. I spoke to a local, and she said that Nita is known for her wings, which is what I was tempted to order. If I return, I would just order shrimp or wings. Awesome lady and I wish her all the best. read more

We've been there about three times and this last time I would say the food was not good..... I purchased the gizzards and collard egg rolls. Very soggy egg rolls and hard to eat gizzards. Will give them a break and return in about 2-3 months. read more

While Visiting Fayetteville for the very first time, this place was recommended as a good local eatery so I decided to give it a try. I ordered fried whiting, shrimp, Mac and cheese and broccoli. The order came with 2 hush puppies. The young lady that took my order was so sweet and helpful. It is a small restaurant with a few dine-in tables and that is just fine. They gave me generous portions but the Mac and cheese was bland and so was the whiting. The shrimp were pretty good and the broccoli was seasoned well. The hush puppies were very, very dry. Although I gave this place 3 stars for what I ordered, I would go back but I just wouldn't order the same thing. I would probably try the smothered Turkey wings next time. read more

I wanted some soul food but didn't want to cook so I came to Nita's. This was my first and last time going here. I ordered a 6 piece garlic parmesan wings and the catfish meal with collard greens and yams. I walked outside to my car then changed my mind and went back in and IMMEDIATELY asked could they change the yams to mac and cheese. She told me it was already on the plate, which threw me off because I was told the fish was cooked to order. So I say my food ready, she says no they cooking the fish. So I am confused why they got my sides on a plate while waiting 15 minutes for my fish to cook. Strike 1! I wait for my food. I get it! In the bag its no silverware, napkins nor condiments, so I ask. For two pieces of catfish she gives me one tarter sauce. Strike 2! I look at my food and get irritated. The wings are fresh but no garlic on them Just scarce parmesan. One of the catfish was on top Of the sides which means it wasn't hard just soggy. Strike 3! Now i taste my food! The greens had no favor whatsoever just plain. The yams just nasty. The catfish was good and the chicken was okay! I wouldn't recommend eating here if you ever had good soul food. read more

Love their fish plates. Macaroni is "okay." I always get a sweet tea too bc it's always on point!

Expensively priced for food I know wasn't fresh. Ate there once and sad to say I don't think I will again. Portions were ok. Sweet potatoes were the canned kind which was very disappointing read more

I have never been to Nita's in person to eat, but I have had meals delivered to me from them a bunch of times. I have never been disappointed. The food is always delicious and delivered hot. I love the fried fish with cabbage, Mac and cheese, rice, and I always add the yams. But I have eaten many of their dishes and they all have been great. I cannot pick a favorite. I recommend you try them all. read more

I liked the food. The shrimp was fried and seasoned well. The chicken was a little less impressive. You could still see several hairs on the chicken and it wasn't seasoned as well. I'm comparing to Uptown Waffles. Those chicken wings are delicious. I recommend calling ahead if you're getting take out because there's a bit of a wait. It's a good thing because it means they cook your food to order. I really appreciate the lady at the cash register allowed me to get a refill on my tea although I had a takeout order. The sides were decent. I had the collard greens and the Mac n cheese. It's a good local spot. If it were closer, I would definitely come back. read more

The food was dope, all of the order was fresh. The followed all the covid guidelines. Customer service was out standing, quickly too orders I would highly recommend this spot for anyone. read more

I ordered catfish, mac & cheese,& yams from here. Although I wasn't a fan of the yams, solely my personal opinion, everything else was delicious. The food was fresh & hot. There was a wait because the fish was made to order which was fine...it was worth the wait. I would love to come back and try something else or maybe the same thing! read more

Best damn fried chicken you can get, Mac n cheese was top shelf. Great hidden gem to eat great food. Service was good, it's a small place but it fits the with their style Definitely would recommend. Will be coming back soon! read more

Was recommended to try this place. Order chicken wings, fried okra, yams and a side of Mac and cheese. The wings were the best part of the meal. Seasoned and cooked well. The yams tasted like applesauce and I didn't care for the texture. The okra was all right. The Mac and cheese was all right, but greasy. We were told that they couldn't tell us the price until we got to the restaurant, but she told us the price for the items we ordered which was about $5 higher than what is listed online. Once we got to the restaurant we were charged a lot more taxes and fees, sauces and for using a credit/debit card. For the prices and the food not sitting well on my stomach, I likely won't be returning. read more

I moved down to Fayetteville in July and discovered Nita's kitchen shortly thereafter. I have had several different meals from there finding the wings are fantastic. The lemon pepper wings and collard greens are my favorite. I order the combo at least three to four times a week. The fries are also seasoned perfectly. I had the honor of meeting Nita and she's a great person looking to satisfy her customers. I'd highly recommend this hometown restaurant to anyone. read more

Pretty good soul food. Greens could use some vinegar and hot sauce. The chicken is pretty good as well. By being a souls food place the dishes are pretty honest and could use a dash of soul. Only thing I didn't like is how this is supposed to be a comfort food place but they totally disrespected the banana pudding. I'm from Louisiana and I know banana pudding. It only consisted of banana pudding, and crushed vanilla wafers which is wrong. I suggest either fix that recipe or stop serving the banana pudding. read more

I ordered my food to go. That translated into me eating my food in the parking lot, because there was NO WAY I was pulling off and into traffic once this smell hit my nose. It was an excellent decision on my part if I must say so myself. read more

The customer service was good. She was so sweet and got everything right the first time. I had the four whole wing dinner with rice and gravy, yams & Mac and cheese. OMGGGGG. Food was good as hell. I will definitely be back I don't know how I'm gone fit this mf in my diet but I'm gone have to make something shake because the food was good as hell! Everything was hot, the wings won't all dark so I know they back there rotating that grease. It was all so so so good omg. I'm waiting until 12 right now to go get some. read more

My fiancé and I found this place while looking for good soul food in the area. The service was great and the food was absolutely amazing! It was so hot when served that it burned a hole in the styrofoam plate. Everything was very well seasoned. I ordered the fried catfish, fried okra and rice w/ gravy. My fiancé ordered the chicken wings with Mac and cheese and baked beans. This is definitely going to be a regular spot for us. read more

Service is great here. Food is always hot and made fresh. I like coming here to get soulfood.

I came here a while ago to order food after work. Everyone was very polite, the food is affordable, service was quick, and I had the best chicken sandwich in recent memory. The chicken itself was large and perfectly crispy, with a fresh topping of lettuce and tomato on a nice toasty bun. Food was perfect to take home for a night in, and was super satisfying after a tough day. read more

Just like home cooking. Had to skip dessert...full on cod fish, fries and broccoli. No bread with the fish. I guess you don't really need it if it's boneless fish and you have fries! (I always thought the bread was just for helping those tiny bones going down without scratching at your throat) They have southern foods as well as deli sandwiches and really good drinks( non alcoholic) read more

The food is great but over the years the prices have gotten really expensive, but as I said food is great

These people need to learn how to answer the phone. Attitude when you answer loses business. I was going place a big order to support other small businesses in my area. But, the lady who answered the phone sounded like she was having the worst day ever. Nope. That phone is a gateway to new business. I can't imagine the funky attitude if I were to go inside. Finally, a reminder of a saying that is tried and true in business. You only get one chance to make a good 1st impression. You failed. read more

Food was delicious-tastes just like a home cooked southern meal. My wife and I had the fried pork chops and fried trout meals. Cooked to order and the staff was very friendly (good music as well). Also known as Nita's Grill. You'll miss this little mom and pop shop when driving by, as I have apparently in the past-so look for it!!! We will be returning to see if they keep up the good work ^_^ read more
