We came to eat here before the Chris Brown and Usher concert. It was about seven minutes away from…read moreSofi Stadium. They do have a parking lot, but it is small and can get full so when we arrived it was full. We did find street parking though. They have one side where you can order to go and pick it up, and then the right side will be where you enter and get the seating. There are two seating rooms and a good amount of seats. Not a ton, but still pretty good. They have one restroom that is pretty big and also clean. The menu is pretty straightforward. There's only two pages. They look the same but one side is gonna have a lunch and dinner special. The other side is gonna have a Sunday special. You can only pick from the plates, and you can add additional sides à la carte, but for the main entrées, you cannot add them additionally. So for instance, my man got the oxtail dinner plate. Which comes with three sides, which are actually very generous. Honestly, I figured that would've fed us both which it could have. But I wanted the fried fish, but there is no option to add that separately. You would have to just get another plate of it. So for the first plate, we got the oxtail. That came over a bed of white rice, which we didn't know. It was very good very filling. We also got a side of mashed potatoes with gravy, which was so good nice and creamy. Then we also got the sweet potatoes and that was delicious. Reminded me exactly of Thanksgiving. And we also got the mac & cheese, which I don't normally like mac & cheese but there's looked good. I wanted to give it a try and it was good. Very cheesy. Then for mine I got the fried catfish plate. You have the option of getting fried or steamed I think. And you have the option of catfish or swai fish. For my sides, I got the corn, okra, tomato. That was very good. Then I also got the red beans over rice. Which was so good. I've never had red beans over rice except for at Popeyes and this was like a 10 out of 10. Then we also got the collard greens which that's the only item I was not a fan of. I probably give that one a one or two out of 10. It was just very bitter for me. Our friends also got their own plate, my friend he got the steamed fish and he said it was really good. They also got a side of cabbage which I also wanted to get. They said that was really good so I should've gotten that. The sweet tea was good. It did have a hint of lemon on it if you did like lemon sweet tea. Overall, for the price point, this was really good and big. I can't believe you get three sides. I definitely feel like one box can feed about two people. Wait time wasn't too long and the servers were really nice. I do like that. The food comes in to go containers already because we had leftovers and that way we did not have to ask for to go box. I would definitely come back whenever I'm in the area again.

As a Southerner, the food at this soul food spot in Inglewood was just alright to me. I came with…read moresome friends for dinner and our dining experience was good, it's just that the food wasn't the best quality. To eat, I had the following: -Sweet Tea: Growing-up, I wasn't the biggest fan of lemon sweet tea and this was that. I prefer sweet tea without lemon, but this one was solid. However, it was very sugary. -Cornbread: Not the freshest, but it was a good appetizer and it wasn't gritty. -Fried Chicken: A bit disappointed with this. The fried chicken wasn't crispy and tasted like it was sitting out for a while. It wasn't too greasy though and the meat wasn't dry. -Mac N Cheese: The best thing I had here and it was solid. Not the best I've had but, it was a good side. -Collard Greens: Solid vegetable and the seasoning/vegetable flavor wasn't too strong. -Candied Yams: These were good, but also a bit too sugary. -Peach Cobbler: Super sweet and not the best I've had. Very syrupy and I would've liked more dough. The portion sizes were very generous though. Good for the price. We also came close to closing, so they gave us a lot of free food they were trying to get rid of for the night. Service was okay. I think the servers were just a bit stressed since it was close to closing time. They have interior seating and tables as well as a takeout window. For my group of 5, we were charged an automatic 20% large party fee. Overall, this experience was mid for me, but it is one of the only decent soul food spots in LA. I wish LA had a better soul food scene.

I was looking for black owned BBQ and couldn't get across town to Brother's Keeper. Yelp popped…read morethis place up as someone I was not aware of down the street from Long Beach Exchange. I drove over, found parking quickly and got in to order. The ribs are the featured item and on the menu one day per week. I pivoted to smothered chicken to go. Two families strongly suggested I change to oxtails, an item not sold in Long Beach since M&Ms closed. I decided to stay with my choice. I am home and find the food to be quite flavorful and plentiful. This place rates highly recommended

Long Beach resident here.... since 1975 & I can honestly say this is the best Soulfood spot ive…read moreeaten in the city since I've been here (51 yrs old)!! Absolutely Delicious!! Been trying to get over there since they opened and I finally had some time today. Went right after brunch & ordered 2 smothered chicken dinners, both w Mac & cheese & the others with red beans & rice & collard greens. Some of the best Mac & cheese I've ever eaten at a Soulfood spot. Seasoned to perfection, creamy, gooey & the noodles were perfectly cooked. Red beans and rice reminded me of New Orleans style and they were excellent. I didn't try the collard greens, but my Pot'nuh said they were on point! I believe his taste buds.... Now let's get to the main entrée! A little bit of the gravy got on my finger when I was unpacking the plates.... (because I took them to go.) and when I licked my finger, I knew I was in for a treat! This fried chicken was seasoned like our ancestors lives dependent on it! I'm serious. It taste like something my grandmother made back in Oklahoma!! Wait wait!! Then they put this smothered chicken on the bed of rice dressing or dirty rice.... I don't know what it is, but it is off the hook! SMH smh ‍ Now I can't lie, the prices were a little higher than I expected, but they give you enough food for two meals. So the smothered chicken was $28 and if I break that down, I just split it in half and look at it like $15 a meal. Worth the price to me. I will definitely be back and I'm glad the place seems to be doing great! It was packed with folks after church in their Sundays BEST lookin & smelling good!! Great ambience and the young lady at the register was sweet as she wanted to be!! Nothing but great reviews from this Guyy!! Keep up the great work!

L.A. had a reputation years ago for rude waitresses in Soul Food Restaurants and I think "In Living Color" did a skit on it. Tammy eliminates that bad rap. The oxtails were enough for two people. The food, especially the yams, collard greens and dressing have that legendary "Mississippi Mary" flavor from Crenshaw back in the day. If you know, you know. That lunch special she had back then saved my life many a day. Sweet Tea? Mph, mph, mph!

Very disappointing to say the least. Never really had complaints about the food so I decided it…read morewould be a good idea to order the catering trays for a get together I was having. The first red flag was when I cane to pick up my pre-paid order I had scheduled for a 1pm pickup. It was not ready and I was told to wait. At 1:30pm I was still waiting and I complained that I ordered and paid days ago, and that this was making me late for my get together. They told me that it was coming out and preceded to hand me a tray to take back to my car one by one. I was in a rush and only verified that all food was accounted for. I should have verified the food was actually cooked! Both the mac n cheese and yams trays were horrible! The mac n cheese was just cheese sauce on macaroni and not baked. The yams were dry and tough as they were not candied at all! My guests barely touched it. Maybe the dinners are still okay but I definitely don't recommend their catering trays. I'll go support another soul food place.
