    Outside/Entry of Restaurant

    * For context, I used the Too Good To Go App to order surprise deal. Food: It was OK. I received yellow rice and grill pork chop for the "surprise meal deal". Let me say, the food was very diabetic friendly. The rice nor the pork chops had any seasoning, which left a bland taste to the food. Now, I was expecting the food to be favorable as the pork chop seem to look well seasoned however I was disappointed. Service: the cashier was very friendly as soon as I provided her the code needed for my order pick up. She immediately provided it to the kitchen staff, and they prepared my food quickly. I was in and out and no more than five minutes. Ambiance: it's an older restaurant, or appears to be so the ambience is very dated. It's pretty much just covered seating ( cause I'm sure the benches are worn) , a TV and that's it. Me, personally, I would only use this restaurant as a to go option and not necessarily a sitdown and dining experience. Overall: - I'm giving one star for the food and an additional star because the customer service was good. I don't expect to go back to this restaurant, however, other reviews has stated other menu options are great so try it out for yourself and let me know what you think!

    The catfish is still GOOD.... But they're inconsistent. My previous review, I wrote that you get two filets. Today I received skinny strips... When I asked them about it they said sometimes it's two filets, other times it's three strips... just depending on how they prep the fish for the day because they cut it in half. What? Choose one and stick with it because that's not amount of fish. If that's the case that would be four strips. To make it worse, While waiting I heard the guy bagging it ask the cashier if she wanted the extra fish cause he just needed an order. Only to realize that wasn't really "extra fish." It was the missing half that should have been on my plate (making it two full filets, especially if they've made it). It's the principle. The Mac and cheese was also super dry today. Actually, it seemed to be mostly over cooked noodles and hardly any cheese. I had to come home and doctor it up... add my own cheese. Disappointed..... I knew I was going to be over that way, and had been looking forward to this plate all week! :(

    Unfortunately there aren't many positives on the plate I received. The greens were overly salted, the mac and cheese was lacking in flavor, the rice was what I would assume is instant rice and super oily, and lastly the meatloaf was okay. The oiliness of everything is a massive turnoff.

    The service was amazing if it wasn't for the cashier I would never want to go back she's a honest sister. I spent $87 on our food my kids loved there fried chicken and fries I got baked cat fish with cheese eggs, an grits the fish saved the meal if it wasn't for the fish it would've been a bland meal. I got corn bread which was horrendous the pinto beans which were salty and the Mac and cheese would've had a chance if it was baked more. It's not hard to please kids but my taste buds are different an yes they are handicap accessible. As far as the ambiance it was clean but plain the owner needs a visit from Gordon Ramsay and no I'm not being funny I'm being serious if it wasn't for that young lady at the front counter the cashier I probably would have gave this place a 3 so my experience was really a five just because of that young lady I gave you a 4 my food I really said it was horrible

    Very welcoming atmosphere and great customer service. I intended on trying the catfish dinner, but the turkey wings looked good so I went with that, green beans and yams with catfish on the side. I was underwhelmed by the food. The turkey wings needed more flavor, the rice was tasteless, the catfish tasted like rubber, and the yams were okay. The green beans was the best food on my plate.

    Tiny sweet cornbread.   Yes it's a tease 8/7/2022

    Want fried fish for my mom. Stumbled across this restsurant on Yelp. Now I'm thinking to myself this place wasn't here last year or before. But after some thought decided to drive to the west side (northwest) to give it a try. They had some business (people) on a Sunday afternoon, 8/7/22. Well I guess we'll go in and check it out. Not too big and not too small of a space. Enough space to sit down, but you can definitely get your food to go. Food: ordered 3 plates 1. Fried tilapia over yellow rice, yams and corn. 2. Turkey wing over yellow rice w/gravy, green beans and cabbage. 3. Turkey Salisbury over dressing with gravy, collard greens and cabbage. 1 sweet tea. 1 almond palmer (the lemonade is not "homemade")--- It's made at home alright. Tasted powdered. But I drank it anyway. Lol 1 can drink ($1.00 you pick out the cooler) yes, a cooler that you take when you go to the park or you hosting bbq at home. Yeah. that one. #3 was my plate. I sampled what wasn't on mine. Yellow rice plain. Nope. No flavor tasted faucet water. Green Beans were dumped out the can. Corn kernels they tried to fix up. I think they were left overs. Yams canned. Yellow rice with turkey gravy doable. Cabbage a little oily but good. Collard greens with smoked turkey and pepper was shockingly good. I can't give an opinion on turkey wing since I didn't taste it. I don't really care for tilapia so I didn't taste. But that Turkey Salisbury is a no! DON'T. Nice size portion but DON'T. Now the cornbread dressing confused me...yellow sweet cornbread. It was not dry, not mushy. I wanted extra gravy on mine...maybe I'll order again with a different meat? Location: Well if you're truly from Atlanta and know some of the original street names it's at the corner of Simpson & Ashby. If you're post 2000 it's Boone & Lowery Blvd. If you're into the Gentrification era West Midtown (but don't be fooled by this description you're in the 'hood). Parking. Small private lot. About 7 cars spaces. You can make your own spot like I did. Two others made it work too. Pricing... well that depends on your budget and its subjective. I about had a heart attack when she said $59.xx. I had it. But obviously I didn't pay attention to the menu price or my math was not mathing. Ask for your receipt...because I didn't and I'm still baffled. But I will say the portion size is great. Enough to get two meals out of plate 1 & 3. I'll return to try breakfast one day. Maybe 4th quarter (October or November) I'll see if I want to try Sunday dinner again because I'm not convinced I want to spend $60 often here. But go support and let the rest of us know what you think.

    No, you just cannot trust not seeing how your food is cooked nowadays. We have to know by a merchants trust and commitment to health that our interest is at best. The food here was like anywhere else. Wrapped tight in a bag before you see what you are getting. I purchased salmon and grits and to be honest I was not impressed. They tasted like the local person did on Evans Mill Rd in Lithonia - has our votes been vetoed to be subject to GMO ingredients on most menus that honor profit over true health? How did we lose this choice? The ones that keep you coming back for more are hard to find in our black owned establishments or they come with a cost! I'm just saying that while this restaurant is in a great location for the history of the area. The choices we pay for should be the reason why we keep coming back. I would not plan on coming back but encourage others to try and review.

When I walked in, the restaurant was busy, and it was obvious they had a lot of orders to handle. Even with all that was going on, Sydney greeted me with a warm smile, made eye contact, asked how my day was going, and made me feel like a valued customer. She was friendly, engaging, and never seemed overwhelmed despite leading the team and keeping everything running smoothly. That's the kind of customer service that leaves a lasting impression. The food was excellent, the atmosphere was welcoming, and I can definitely see why this place stays busy. Great food is one thing, but outstanding employees like Sydney are what keep people coming back. Keep up the great work!

However, when I arrived, past the order completion time, I had to wait another 20 minutes for my order. Secondly, the lima beans were way overcooked and mushy. Extremely disappointing considering I love lima beans and ordered an extra 8 oz serving. Complete waste of money and not up to par at all.. In addition, the delicious cornbread dressing had a ton of small chicken bones in it. Definitely not something that I was expect or look forward to in dressing. Very disappointing. Furthermore, I will never understand why they allow homeless people to sit at each door entry and back. One page from told them that they needed to remove them from the front doors because it was not a good look for their business and that big daddy would not be happy about it, nothing was done. On the positive side, the collard greens, broccoli rice casserole, cabbage, squash medley and baked chicken were good. Overall, this was not a great experience and I will think twice before coming back to this location. However, if you ever want to try it out, I strongly recommend ordering online and setting your pick up time for 15 minutes earlier than when you plan to arrive. That way, your order will be ready or close to ready when you arrive. And do not order the overcooked, mushy lima beans and pray that the cornbread dressing does not have a ton of small chicken bones in it, even though it is really good - you might crack a tooth o
