| - I was really hoping this place would be good. 30 minutes before closing, it was still pretty busy with mostly black folks so I thought this place must be legit. Service was good and friendly. But, the food was lacking. Good food in general is a rarity and good southern food in Vegas is about as common as an oasis.
The gravy was too damn salty. Unless you've got a major mineral deficiency and a raging salt craving to go along with it, you're gonna find the gravy they put over just about everything too salty. The meatloaf was a bit dry and hard and the flavor was smothered by the salt laden gravy. The liver was overcooked and also soaked in the gravy. The seasoning on the fried chicken was salty, too.
We got ours to go. When I got home and opened up the orders, the meatloaf and liver had two side orders each and they were both the same! Both entrees should have come with 3 sides and they should have all been different. That royally sucked. The mac & cheese was unexceptional and the cabbage was well boiled and lightly seasoned.
The fried chicken wings came with two long, oval, very dark colored waffles that were weirdly dense. I was expecting the light, fluffy, crunchy kind. They were ok with butter and syrup, but hell, styrofoam would be ok with butter and syrup.
Overall, the food and take out service was way disappointing. Again, the staff was friendly and I was greeted with a smile, so the extra star. Otherwise, to me this is a 1-star place.
