| - We'd been meaning to visit this place and were pleasantly surprised when we finally did. We recently moved here from Florida, where southern (soul) food can be found almost everywhere.
The plaza and surrounding area looks a little shady, but for the most part everything is just run down. Don't let that deter you, the food, price and service make it all worth it.
There is seating inside for around 10 people, but it looks like people like to carry out for the most part. Because of the building itself, the inside doesn't look fantastic; however, you can tell it is clean, and they did a good job decorating to brighten the place up.
You will be quickly greeted by the a woman who can say the entire menu without breathing in less than 30 seconds - it is pretty amazing! She was very kind and genuine, it reminded me of what we like to call 'real southern hospitality'. They have all the normal options, everything from chicken and waffles to oxtail; there are also weekly specials.
We ordered: chicken and waffles ($4.99), chicken wings (3 whole) and fries ($4.99), and a fried chicken dinner ($9.99). We received 4 wings instead of 3, and there were a slice of toasted bread. My husband got mashed potatoes and macaroni and cheese as his dinner sides, and a cornbread muffin was included.
Everything was pretty good, we didn't really have any complaints. The macaroni and cheese was outstanding though, so I will be going back for that!
Both of us give the place a 4 because it wasn't the BEST in the whole world; however, it will definitely become a place we frequent. As I said, the amount of food we can get for $20, the quality of service and the fact that it is soul food (MmmMm!) makes it worth the trip.
