| - Umm, yes please.
This was the most satisfying meal I've had in a long, long time. (I've been tending to my diet lately...)
This is an "order at the counter" kind of place, but these lovely ladies will bring you your food. And let me tell you, they're sweeties!
I ordered the tilapia, which came with two filets, breaded and fried in a cornmeal based breading. Yes! No fishy taste, very light, crunchy and flakey in the center. I tried pouring some hot sauce over 'em and they were even then they were good.
The larger sized entrees come with two sides, so I ordered the green beans, mac n cheese and the collard greens. Yes, I got an extra side because I couldn't decide. The green beans were just eh, the mac'n cheese wasn't really my type. I like a rich, creamy sauce, not the baked kind. These noodles had seen better days, trust me. But for those of you who love baked mac, this would be right up your alley. But those collard greens? Oh man, those are good stuff. I know a lot of folks like them with more bacon-y, porky and salty taste, but these were perfect for me. I added them into each bite of tilapia.
My dinning companions also ordered some luscious items for us to try. DO NOT skip on the oxtails. The order is small and they're a little pricey, but you'll thank me. These luscious, tender pieces of beef will make you swoon. Speaking of swooning, coming from a gal who literally hates yams, these bad boys were life-altering. As in, I know only like yams if they're from Angie's. It tastes like they're in this cinnamon-y, honey and brown sugar infused sauce... just trust me here. Even if you don't like sweets (like me) you'll think these are delicious.
We didn't get to taste the corn bread, which I assumed came with every meal, but I suppose not. Oh well. I can't wait to come back to try more! Get it, Angies!
