Went here after a great church service and ready to feed our tummies. Disclaimer: I am a Southerner, the bar is fairly high.
I had the Soulfood platter with smothered chicken and collard greens and Mac n cheese. I have criticized as being undercooked and salty before. Today they were excellent. Perfectly cooked and seasoned. I wanted to ask for more gravy but didn't and had some left over after I was done so smothered chicken, check! The Mac n cheese was really good but perhaps a bit too creamy. Mac n cheese aficionados will know what I mean. I like ever so bit of crust with top toasted and a slight bit of clumpiness... but the flavor was there.
My daughter had the shrimp and grits which were excellent if a tad bit over produced. See the pic but the shrimp were plentiful and cooked with nice amount of spice like my family generally likes it. The grits were creamy. Why overproduced? The melted cheese on top. But I didn't look at the description or I would have asked for light cheese but my daughter ordered her own meal.
Wife had grilled cod which she enjoyed and son and no in law both had fried breast, wing and waffle. My son finished all but a quarter of his waffle if that's any indication. That fried chicken is rivaled only by Ms' Whites... Nobody beats Ms Whites' fried chicken.
This was Easter Sunday so I'm going to put slow service aside... we never received platters for our tasty fried green tomatoes. Gotta add this blessing. As we were paying our check manager brought us a $15 receipt and said family in the booth behind us wanted to help pay for our meal. She wrote on the receipt: "Sorry for my 2 year old's antics! God bless!" First we briefly noticed the 2 year old and he was doing what any 2 year old would do and caused us not one second of concern but we will surely pay it forward. Happy Easter! He is risen!
