I don't even like cornbread and I LOVED it. Not even sure why I tried it other than the fact that I was starving and it smelled like sweet corn and butter. YUM ME!
Get the fried chicken finger dinner. I MURDERED the chicken and it may seriously have been THE best fried chicken (outside of grandmama's fried chicken) ever. VERY WELL-SEASONED.
I almost lost it when I tried the BBQ sauce. Obviously homemade. I couldn't believe this place put so much talent and effort into EVERYTHING.
Macaroni and cheese was good, not great. But I ate it all so that says something.
The only thing I couldn't finish were the yams. TOO sweet for my liking. They don't call em candied yams cuz they taste like vegetables I guess.
Find your life at Mert's.
And the staff was SOOOOOOO attentive. Doesn't get any better especially with patio seating in the heart of Uptown!
