| - Special hidden gem. This place has been open since 2008 and has only 15 reviews. I would have never hit this place up had it not been for a Groupon coupon ($7 for $15 in food)
This is Soul food at its finest. We had their chicken and waffles which comes with one waffle and 3 whole chicken wings. I made love to them chicken wings. I don't leave any meat, skin, or cartilage on the bone. The bone is sucked dry and rightfully so as it is perfectly seasonsed with the delicious cripsness. The waffles are similar to Roscoe's in texture but the flavor was really good. I wish the waffles were a little crisp but they are more of a pancake waffle texture.
In addition to the chicken and waffles, we tried their Grits which were butterty, rich, and went down smoothly with the Chicken and Waffles. Throw in a side of greens and 2 drinks and w/o the Groupon it was only $21.
Ok I'm not being racist here but you have to judge the food by its loyal customers. For instance, if you go to a Korean restaurant and see 99% white people, it's probably not good....right? As we walked into Gritz with all 9 of its tables, we were the only non-AA people there. To me, that means I hit the jackpot when it comes to soul food. Sorry....I had to go there....but it's true. At least I'll say it :)
The owners were super nice and chatted with us about the food. We told them we'll be back and for good reason. Cheap, delicious, home comfort food at its finest. Considering how much love M&M gets, Grifz Cafe should as well. Be sure to check them out!
