We were not disappointed - every bite of every thing was absolutely delicious. We are from Charleston, home to many southern/soul food restaurants but Jeffrey Lampkin's beat the pants of of every soul food kitchen Charleston has to offer. It's about a 2-hour drive from Charleston to Sumter but I would make that trip just to enjoy their food again. It's that good!

No unsweetened tea...okay. The cornbread was not done, the dough stuck to the roof of my mouth. We are waiting for our food, a dirty car drives up, 2 women get out in visibly soiled clothing, not uniform, but denim and a T-shirt, walk straight to the kitchen did not wash their hands, picked up my meal and came towards my table with it! Baybee.... I stopped that Hooker in her tracks and told he NO Ma'am!!! I'm just saw you come in from outside, go straight to the kitchen without washing your hands and picked up MY food! No Ma'am!!! The bitch didn't even apologize, turned around and took the food back to the kitchen. You know I left! And just got home, about to do a review

This trip was no different. We had a large group of 16 and it started there. Was told a 2hr wait. If we split in to groups of 8 we'd be seated in 45. Took this option. Actually got seated in about 25 minutes seperately. (A table of 8 that was right next to us was vacant and NEVER got used for the entire 90 minutes or so that we stayed at the restaurant so why not accommodate our group? - strike one) Our waitress I'm told was very chippy with an attitude toward some party members. (I didnt get any attitude toward me) but heard a few people stating how she was answering people's requests and how unpleasant she was. - Strike two. The food. I ordered the meatloaf nachos (which were good). I also ordered the fried pork chops w/ side salad. Loading up on fake bacon bits (like 1000 pieces) doesnt make the salad better. This is a hint to their kitchen. The pork chops were dry and the "red skinned" mash potatoes" (which I do not remember the menu stating that they were red skinned potatoes which would mean SKIN would be present in the mash. Otherwise I would not have ordered this. ALSO, their baked beans.......this was the worst part of the meal. I am expecting some version of beans with a bbq base or similar...instead I got some sort of bean SOUP which was totally inedible in my opinion. Whole meal was trash. Strike three. My 83 year old father said at the end of the meal "worst meal I've ever had". Which I had him repeat to the table just in case anyone thought it was just me. $700 with tip for the quality is a bit much. I will never ever return no matter what my siblings say.

The service and members working there are so nice and personable. There was no "menu", just a whiteboard with what they had. No prices to be seen (ended up paying $17 for fried chicken, yams, Mac and cheese, greens, cornbread and sweet tea!). And honestly I am ok with that! They had oxtails while I was there (I didn't get them) but a large amount of people came in because they heard that they had them today so that says something. Good size portions, with great homemade flavor from the greens to the cornbread. Now, the outside and inside are not the best, definitely a hole in the wall spot. The food is so worth it!

I finally stopped by a couple weeks ago & got my mother some brisket, she'd been wanting to try it…read more I don't think I've ever seen brisket sliced that thin, it was like deli sandwich ham. Taste was low mid. Yesterday, I decided to stop by after work & try their chicken wings. There was one car in front of to me & nobody inside. Only had to wait about 4 minutes & ordered 6 wings, fries, Mac & cheese, & 2 drinks for $27! I sat there for 38 minutes before I got my order! No apology, no excuse, just here's your order, have a nice day. The whole time I was there (Friday evening), I only saw 4 other customers in line or inside & there was at least 4 people working, so it's not like they were swamped with orders or shorthanded. That long & for that much money, it had better be a 5 star meal. I get home & see there's 2 sandwich style clamshell styrofoam containers & a single 4 ounce styrofoam ramekin. I opened the ramekin & the Mac & cheese did not look appealing at all. I tasted it & there was pretty much zero flavor. I can't tell you when I've had Mac that bland. I opened the side of fries & there might've been about 20 fries. The serving wasn't much more than a McDonald's small fry for comparison. I opened the wings & they were average size & looked pretty decent (by now I'd fully anticipated the little parakeet wings like Zaxby's). I tried them but was definitely not impressed. The sauce, Sweet & Hot, was mildly sweet but no spice or heat at all & it tasted like basic Kraft sauce off the grocery shelf. For the cost & time I could have spent another 10 minutes & driven to Florence & gotten better food & bigger servings for much less $$. I really hate that it was such a bad experience, especially after the previous less than stellar experience. I love small businesses & really had high hopes for something new for Sumter.
