    Experienced through UberEats and was a good one. Food packaged well to prevent spillage that you tend to see with soul food orders. The portions look small based on how they package but it is deceiving as they are good single portions and comparable to other restaurants. Good southern taste and like they use plant based and non pork seasonings.

    ** Don't judge this book by it's cover ** A friend of mine came in town for Thanksgiving weekend and wanted some Soul Food and she actually found this place herself from Google Maps. She had turkey wings and something and I believe the same sides as me but this plate was good! Service was friendly, the young lady that took our order was also multi tasking and doing other things as well. I'd come back and bring someone here, I'm glad she found this place.

    Menu said 40oz pork chop--got a thin, crunchy sliver. Mac had no cheese, greens too salty. Big letdown, wasted my money.

    I really wanted to like this place after reading so many positive reviews, but unfortunately my experience was very disappointing. Mac & Cheese The flavor was seasoned well, but there was barely any cheese. It was basically just macaroni with seasoning--not the creamy, cheesy dish I was expecting. Collard Greens They had a nice smoky flavor, but the saltiness was overwhelming. I literally had to mix them with the dry macaroni just to balance it out. Pork Chops This was the biggest letdown. The menu described a 40 oz pork chop, so I expected a thick, hearty cut. Instead, what I received was one of the thinnest pieces of meat I've seen in a long time--closer to the size of chicken lo mein broccoli than a real chop. On top of that, the heavy KFC-style batter made it all crunch with no substance. It felt like I was eating fried breading instead of pork. Overall I left very disappointed. For the price, I feel like I wasted my money on what should have been a comforting, hearty meal. Instead, it was salty sides, no real mac & cheese, and a pork chop that absolutely did not match what was advertised. I truly wish I could take this meal back.

    HEAVILY BREADED PORK CHOP

    The mac and cheese was gray. The pork chop was heavily breaded and appeared to be old. It had no taste. It was disgusting and I realized why it was BOGO on Uber Eats. It was a huge disappointment and a complete waste of my money. I threw all of it away. I was not about to jeopardize my health by eating clearly unsafe food.

    Got here at about 630 pm. Ordered and it took about 10 minutes to get food. However they ha e a sign that says that they cook everything to order. Ordered the smother chicken wings with ppotato salad, and candy yams. The wings were over yellow rice. My only complaint is that the rice was salty. I liked that they fried the wi as first and then put the gravy on top. So the wings still had a little crunch. The potato salad had to much mayo. The corn bread was good. Just a heads up the drink selection was very limited. They didn't have water. Now this is not a sit down and a waiter comes to you table place. So........ The you lady was very nice taking the orders. The food comes out hot and the portions are large. Very small place in the hood.

    The food was amazing. The atmosphere was nice and the customer service was top tier. Reminds me of Sunday dinner with the family. Took a friend who had never been and she was in heaven with the food. She was impressed and very satisfied. As you can see the portions are very nice and the prices are reasonable.

    Fried Whole Chicken Wings

    I just left, came home ready to eat. Chicken was not done, mac and cheese had no cheese, collard greens no taste, bread dry, only thing that was good was the yams. Whole plate in the trash.

    This location is super dope. You walk in, go to the tablet (for pick up) to check in and they text you when your order is ready. Super smooth process and user friendly. I ordered the veggie plate with Greens, Cabbage, Yams, and Cornbread Dressing and was pleased with the plate as a whole. Full Breakdown: The Cabbage was very bland so I would suggest the greens if you prefer flavor as they were very well seasoned. The yams were ideal. Well cooked. Perfectly seasoned. Not too sweet. Soul Food Perfection. I will come back for those alone. The Cornbread Dressing was perfect and the gravy just made you close your eyes and think of Sunday Dinner. There's nothing like a good dressing and this one is on point.

    The food was horrible. My daughter found a small piece in her pork chops. Mac and cheese looked and tasted disgusting....tasted like noodles with white gravy and sprinkled with a dab of cheese. I had baked turkey, I paid extra for crispy... NOT! it was soggy, tasted bland. The stuffing was burnt and disgusting as well. I spent $57 on UberEATS. I wouldn't give this food to a homeless person seriously. I'd never recommend this order. If this is Soul food I'll pass FOREVER!! Wish I had the pic I sent them with metal in the pork chops.

    Not sure how long they've been there but i have for sure have been in the area for the last 6 years and kinda mad i havent tried them until today. The food and service was amazing and when i seen the price i usually get a little iffy, didnt second guess it one time and wanted to leave a tip and it was worth every bit. I highly recommend this place. I will be back. Thanks again.

    This place is getting a 4 from me because my cornbread was so burnt that I had to throw it away. However everything else I ordered was good! I ordered from ubereats, so I've never actually been in the restaurant. The porkchop was seasoned so great and was fried to perfection. The mac and cheese was creamy and had good flavor. The collard greens were seasoned well and weren't bitter. I also ordered a side of the saffron rice. The rice is really good, I'll give them that. However I will say I was expecting a bit more of it for the price. But overall, I will absolutely be ordering from this place again!

    The oxtails were awful!! All Fat! 3 oxtail bones for $30 and all fat. Highly disappointed

    Brown and spoiled ... the smell of spoiled days old spoiled food
    Kevin M.

    Ordered thru delivery service ... received brown foul smelling macaroni. How can ANY restaurant KNOWINGLY serve spoiled mac n cheese?! The food has been great every time I ordered ... but no ... can't even fathom the thought of coming back here. Opened the container and smelled the bad mac n cheese ... if it stunk when I opened the container, how could anyone there NOT SMELL IT?! EDIT: Based on your tacky response ... I SAID WTF I said and my order wasn't from the day I left this ACCURATE response. That fragile ego you came back at me with is laughable at best. I didn't order from you directly and I was never going to waste my time and come back to you to "fix" when your best was spoiled, rotten and out of date product. I got EVERY cent I paid back on BOTH orders I had delivered and I was ok with that. Since you feel the need to air your grievances since you can't do no wrong let me lay it out ... First: you can't get orders out on time and you have both drivers AND customers waiting an obscene amount of time. Second: You're barely in a test kitchen combined with other companies that seem to be more efficient and streamlined when it comes to having orders ready vs yours. Third: No one should have to EVER call you about spoiled food in the hopes of fixing the order or replacing any part of it because NO ONE should have to be subjected to the humiliation of your effort and/or service. FOURTH: As a consumer that spent MY money in YOUR test kitchen "establishment," how dare you try to make me seem as if i'm here to bad mouth your product? No sir ... your nasty lack of attention of food preparedness made that happen and quite frankly i'm not surprised your response falls in order with your food. FIFTH: Don't ever play victim when you're holding the smoking gun ... I ordered FROM YOU. And I was delivered what YOU put forth. Not my fault your raggety service and subpar attention warranted this TRUE AND ACCURATE rating. Focus on your employees recycling spoiled food and maybe you'd get AND KEEP repeat customers ...

    I went to this establishment many years ago when it was called 285 Soulfood. The food was great…read morethen and it is great now. After seeing recent reviews online for the newer place, A1 Soul Food I decided to give it a try when I was in the area during lunch time. The area is a bit sketchy. It shares a lot with an vacant Dollar Tree & a few other businesses. Lock your car & be aware of your surroundings because you never know what you may see. That is honestly the way to be anywhere on MLK drive. When you get inside, the place is set up cafeteria line style with booths for dining in if you choose too. The prices are listed on the wall and they serve breakfast and lunch/dinner food with the prices listed clearly on the wall and daily specials also. You order by standing in line & they place your food into a styrofoam box & you can eat it there or take it home. I opted to take mine to go. I waited in line for about ten minutes which I hear is good for this place. I honestly did not know what I was going to order until I saw the fresh fried pork chops come out (please see my picture). Not only did they look fresh, but they were big, crispy & well seasoned. The meat only option included two and the price was more than right. I will be back for those again the next time I am in the mood for some soul food.

    A1 Soul Food is one of those places that has truly stood the test of time for me…read more This is real, down-home cooking--like a Sunday dinner any day of the week. The portions are amazing, the food is always fresh, and you can genuinely taste the consistency and care in every bite. It's the kind of place you go to when you want something filling and comforting. My personal favorites are the fried catfish and the smothered turkey legs--omg, they are so flavorful and always cooked just right. I've grown up eating here, and one thing I can say is the quality has never changed, which is rare and definitely appreciated. The vibe is simple and laid-back, but the food speaks for itself. It's all about good, hearty meals that keep you coming back. Also, if you're in the area, you definitely have to check out Wing Cafe right next door--another solid spot you don't want to miss

There is a large sign on the side of building. Entering from the street, there is a ramp down to the counter and seating area. Seating is mostly tables with a few stools at the counter. There is a sign above the counter on the right for takeout orders. The menu is simple. It's fried chicken. There are sides like slaw and baked beans with a few appetizers, but mostly it's chicken. Once our order was placed, it only took about ten minutes to get our food. One thing we noticed while waiting was the cook was checking the internal temperature of each piece of chicken as it came out of the fryer. This was very much appreciated and ensured every piece was cooked to perfection. Constant quality checks like that show they take their product seriously and do not rely only on a timer to tell them when it is done. All the chicken was crispy on the outside and moist and tender on the inside. While moist, the meat was not dripping with juices that ran down your arm or left a puddle on your plate. All the flavor was locked into the chicken. The baked beans were good, maybe nothing special but certainly a good accompaniment to the chicken. The slaw was also decent. The mac and cheese was good as well. One note of caution. The chicken seasoning is spicy. If you are used to large chain spicy versions, this is more than that. The flavor is great but the spiciness will get your attention. As long as you are aware of that, you will very much enjoy this chicken.
