Mert's is true southern soul food. Not the New American type, but the real stuff. Mac-n-cheese, green beans cooked in animal fat, salmon cakes, fried chicken. It's all good. I love the mac-n-cheese and will often just order a veggie plate where I can pick 4 different ones to eat. They always have vegetable specials so I can try something new every time I go.
They also had 4 different hot sauces on the table. I made a point to sample them all on the delicious corn bread they make.
