    Whole Truth does it again....my daughter went at my recommendation and picked up food for us. She loves it as much as I do...says the fried chicken is the best ever and lived the great service. She's normally not a banana pudding fan, but she loved what she got here. Can't wait to go back again.

    My meal smothered chicken rice and gravy and collard greens. A fried chicken thigh. Moderately priced with dessert is $11.50

    This is a restaurant next to a church and appears to be ran by the members of the church. They have a Buffay type serving. They put the food in card bored containers. There's a lot of confusion. They are no signs telling you which way to go in.And the food here is very good. The chicken is nice and crunchy the rice and gravy are good and a banana putting is good. The place is very clean as well

    Everything was delicious! Simple.

    Anytime we're in the south we try to find a local restaurant with home cooked meals. I found this on Yelp and that's how we ended up here. It's cafeteria style I guess is the best way to describe it. We had the fried chicken, black eye peas, greens, potato salad, yams, and some sort of fried corn fritters. It was all good. Even the sweet tea was yummy. And they do have Koolaid. But I didn't try it, I regret that. It's not your gourmet spot but just simple cooking just like your granny would make.

    This place is the Truth!

    I've been coming to this spot since my childhood! I have never been let down! I love the "Whole Truth", because that is what it is!

    This joint is located just on South Walnut Street in Wilson, NC. We were in town on a Sunday afternoon looking for some home cooked greens and fried chicken and Honey this place whets your appetite for more than you bargained for. The fried chicken reminds us of the kind Maw-maw would make on Sunday after church. The greens are well prepared, not over cooked and mushy like some places. Don't forget the sweet potatoes and the pie. Place reminds you of back home, growing up. Just the way you like it; real home cook n' Soul food (good for your soul don't you know). Come on down and get you some while it's hot. Try the ham hocks, pig tail, or fat ribs. Open Wed-Sun from 11-5 or 6. Walk on in and pay the cashier after you go through the line. They'll treat you real nice like. The tea was a little too sweet, but other than that it all it's the spot. Don't forget the corn fritters. Mmm-mm, Good!

    Yams, Cabbage and Fried Chicken was delicious!
    Yasmine F.

    The people were friendly and the food was delicious! I had the cabbage, yams, and fried chicken all of which was delicious and very filling! I especially liked the yams. Service was quick and I was in and out in no time. I will definitely be back!

    This establishment is a southern gem. The food, customer service is second to none. Make sure you try the greens and hush puppies!

    Situated downtown Wilson, this new venture would make an outstanding pizza spot on its own as it is…read moreundeniably great pizza. Service was stellar and it was an easy in/easy out dining experience. As for ambiance, it's bipolar. An unclear mixed bag of what the business actually is - Smack dab at the entrance immediately upon entering is a 3-in-1 hostess station-ticket exchange counter for kids-cash register that morphs at a 90° angle inward into a wall of liquor with TV's above a bar. Front and center is a handful of tables, beyond is the semi-open kitchen and on the left is a widened entry into a 1980's-1990's arcade games room. Don't expect Dave & Buster's caliber of games or intentional segregation of adults only vs family acceptable zones. Good potential for preteens+ to ride their bikes to and grab some grub with their friends if the booze wasn't so dominant. There may have been a bicycle rack outside, I cannot recall. I can see this as a spot for families to go for a kid-friendly dining spot and for those who don't mind eating amid kids being kids in a kid-friendly place as Downtown Wilson continues its quest to clean itself up. Worth a repeat visit later in the future as it should be interesting to see how this business evolves, similar to the rest of the immediate area, once it finds its stride and nails down the demographic that is its bread and butter.
