Fried fish with Mac n cheese and greens
Myla M.

Been looking for some good soul food since I came to Milwaukee and found some. The fish plate I had was great with the highlight being the fish and the yams. Those fish and yams was perfect, perfectly seasoned and fried and the yams perfect level of sweetness and melt in mouth. They also gave a good side of hot sauce with the fish that was perfect. The mac n cheese could've been more seasoned in my opinion (I just added a lil Tony's and it was perfect) and the greens more tender. But overall a very delicious plate. The service was quick when I went considering they are made to order (this place is to go only). The menu honestly sound so good I wanted everything but of course couldn't order all that so I will have to go back and try their other stuff (turkey necks and gumbo).

Slightly tucked away between the YMCA, Happy Wok and Mobil gas station on 124th and North Ave...

Awesome presentation of food. Good and tasty quality eats and treats. Turkey leg is the best around. Catfish seasoned perfectly with just the right amount of crunch! Staff is friendly and I'm happy that they're now calling people to advise when order is ready. Can get busy and run out of the favorites, like the turkey egg rolls but definitely worth the visit!

This place is a little gem that everyone should try! I had the gumbo, it was heavy on the sausage but had a really nice flavor. My son had the turkey leg, it was his first and he almost rejected it when I surprised him with it but he proceeded to eat every bite!

Soul Chicken Sandwich  (A Special).
Heidi A.

If you like Southern Food, you'll LOVE Plate Pleasures. We ordered off the Specials Menu -Shrimp Po Boy and Soul Chicken Sandwich (fried chicken breast layered with onions, greens, yams and mac n cheese). Incredible Favors! Our sides were cabbage, greens with pork and Mac n cheese. Next time I'll try the entree with the two sides. I did feel like the a la cart Mac n cheese was a bit small for $6.00, however it was good. And, I never order pound cake but Grandma Dorothy knew what she was doing bc it was moist, sweet and delicious. Can't wait to try the other options next time.

I ordered the catfish, mac&cheese and greens.

The catfish was seasoned well and crispy. Love the greens did have pork in them. I was letting the lady know that I found about this place on FB MKE Foodie group and drove across town to try them out. The person behind me said I would not be disappointed, and was correct. I will definitely be back. I do not mind supporting with good food and customer service.

Came by for dinner the other night and it was an excellent world class experience. Story Hill BKC…read moreis located in the suburbs in the greater Milwaukee area. Parking was plentiful on the street. Venue seems to be a wine bar with an open kitchen. Opted for a table with a view of the open kitchen. Staff throughout the evening was excellent. Started off with the seared Maitake Mushroom and it was tasty. It was served over a bed of aioli and topped with some cilantro. The venison was a special and requested medium rare. It came out towards a medium. Venison tends to be extremely lean. This dish was served perfectly with beets and squash. Ended the meal with a dark chocolate pie which was also excellent. Presentation was fantastic and the pie was super fresh. Portions were generous and perfect for sharing! $79/head after tax, gratuity and 3% credit card surcharge

It's a great environment with a lot of good drink options. I always opt for the Parker rolls which are tasty but again expensive for the amount you get, I typically order the trout (which until coming here I didn't realize was essentially the same as salmon). It's very good and the potato pancake is a nice touch. Over my visits I've also enjoyed trying the short rib gnocchi, butter chicken, and brussels. They also have a small party room which I have attended an event in before which is always a nice touch. It's secluded and of course much quieter than their main dining area which can get pretty loud!

Let me start by saying I travel a lot for work and by golly I have been looking for a solid fried…read morechicken spot out here for a few months now. Hands down the best fried chicken and ox tail I've had since the hay days of Browns chicken (IYKYK). Had to drive 25+ minutes to get there and by the time I made it home with my 12 piece & ox tail it was the perfect temp! Tried sneaking a piece on the way back but it was still crazy hot and fresh! And even the chicken breast was plenty moist when I got home and commenced. Also the cornbread was super moist and has plenty of flavor! Mac and cheese wasn't half bad seriously some of the better Mac I've had in a bit as well. I think I've found my new spot 10/10, I highly recommend this place!

Disappointing! Service-1.5…read moreFood-2 Cleanliness-4 We walk in and weren't greeted, just a vague look. *HUGE SIGH, HERE WE GO* The menu isn't extensive, so we decided quickly. Fried chicken wing dinner and oxtail dinner. Sides greens, yams, mac, & red beans and rice. Used the restroom while we waited. It was fairly clean until the sink showed hair from someone who had just had a fresh haircut. EWWWW... Food was ready in like 10mins. High hopes when I saw the chicken was freshly cooked and everything was hot. And the joy ended there. My oxtail were soooo fatty! Can't believe they served them. Barely any gravy just the gravy from the fat it seemed. The employees should've eaten them, FREE!!! Yams, seemed canned and just not good. Reb beans and rice were dry and old. Mac and cheese wasnt baked, but heard was ok. Chicken was fresh/hot, but lacked any seasoning! Smh... Baby with the attitudes their serving (read other reviews) you'd think they had something special going on in here! NOT They had a steady stream of customers, they're in a great location. I WOULD NOT RETURN

The restaurant…read moreis decorated with lots of paintings with the back being takeout and the front being dine in and I got takeout. The place had a steady flow of walk in and delivery with some items sold out 12:30 ish already. Service was fast and friendly with no issues. This is cafeteria style and not cooked to order with everything in a steam/hot table counter.I would do the fried chicken, greens, backed Mac and cheese with a corn bread muffin. The muffin had a good corn flavor but it was that dry corse saw dust texture, I prefer the moist cakey kind but it was still good. The greens were chunk stems and leafs that was not seasoned very well but still good. The backed Mac and cheese had a nice cheese flavor in a creamy sauce with pasta cooked past Al dente and on the mushy side, the bites with the backed cheese on top were the tastiest. My fried chicken was a leg, thigh and a wing. My first thought was that this fried chicken was seasoned very well. As expected from a hot table pre cooked it wasn't crispy/hot like fresh from the oil. It wasn't super moist and neither dry, something in the middle tender chicken. Overall I enjoyed my soul food lunch and I can see why it's a popular place.
