| - Dear reader,
Are you excited about experiencing some real soul food? Well don't be! This place is hor-ri-ble!!! A total disappointment to us black folks that love "soul food"! First of all I will talk about our server. Our waitress was Oceanna, she was great!!! She was the best waitress I had ever had, if you have her as your waitress she deserves a very nice tip! She is truly a lovely person.... We had a very large party so I can tell you a bit of what to expect off the menu.
I loved loved loved, the soul rolls they were the bomb and the side sauce that came with them was nice and spicy and added salt to them I was truly surprised. My mother on the other hand did not care for them. On a down side which is minor but I suggest that the restaurant invest in little dipping cups. It's so unrewarding to try to dip a giant soul roll in this tiny little paper cup that looks like something psych patients take their pills from. And that paper after taste is really gross, especially when you have to squeeze the paper cup to get the rest of the sauce out. I was afraid to ask for more sauce because they over charge for everything including $1.50 to substitute a side dish.
If you want to be on the safe side you might opt for the jerk chicken and Cajun corn for $10.95. I had this and it was not worth it. Go to the store buy some wings sprinkle jerk seasoning on them fry them then get some corn sprinkle pepper add red and green peppers and say you got it to go from Zanzibar that's how simple this dish was. There was nothing special about it, no personality, finesse, nothing. They could have sprinkled parsley on it or something to liven it up. Just slop on a plate. The chicken was also dry, dry, dry, and came with no sauce and they needed it sooo bad! The teazer menu says that the jerk chicken wings came with a lemon aioli sauce but why in the world are these same dry ass wings missing the sauce on the entree menu? What? And I had to break down and add salt to my chicken smdh! Do you hear me? I had to add plain old white table salt to already fried chicken. So you say why didn't I take a pic? Because we made reservations at 7:30 for a large party we didn't get seated until almost 8:30. So by that time and me sending my plate back to get added corn and get drinks I was too hungry to think about it. I also ordered macaroni and cheese. ( let me say this, I am not a hater by far I have no reason to hate. The food does not live up to its hype! It is what it is) now, the macaroni and cheese...
Stick to your mother's Mac and cheese or you might do better just getting a box of shells and cheese lol. Maybe not but it's a tough choice. The mac and cheese was bland, no seasoning what-so-ever! They cut corners on the cheese so it wasn't that good old salty, funky, string, mac and cheese that I'm use to. They used too many eggs and the noodles were so over cooked. I mean seriously how, does a black owned restaurant F up mac and cheese someone's mama need to give or receive a serious beat down lol!
As far as drinks I opted for water and a drink called hooch fusion. The drink tasted really strong but I'm not sure if I got a buzz from it or not I sipped it throughout the night.
Briefly I'll talk about the other dishes that my family members and I tried;
Teazers:
The fried green tomatoes were on the small side and you only receive only five of them but they where so good. ( Dave's is right across the street if they need larger tomatoes)
Soul rolls were really good. I love them but I'll try to make them at home. Along with the hot sauce sauce.
Sides (supporting cast):
All of the food was room temperature and Luke warm.
The Cajun corn was ok just plain old tasting corn with peppers mines is better.
Mac and cheese was blah and pitiful.
Black eyes peas had no soul and they were blah and just boiled beans with a pinch of salt and pepper nothing else (no ham hocks people or smoked meat!) done oh so wrong. They were sent back.
Entrees:
Smothered ribeye streak and house potato. The steak was nice and tender and covered in salty gravy and house potato should have been called white cheese au gratin potatoes. It was okay, the portion size is very nice but a bit too much salt for me.
Jerk wings so wack and gross. Dry and bland and unfulfilling. You defiantly need an extra side and appetizer.
Center cut pork chops were also dry I'm unsure about the taste, I didn't ask.
Drinks:
The serving size of the tea and kook aid was a great size. Maybe worth the price you won't need a refill.
The woo woo nice smooth light colored drink
The hooch fusion strong drink with a snake bite
The maraschino cherries were gross!!!!
At the end of our meal the manager Shawn came to the table to greet up but he didn't stay long enough for us to be very honest with him.
Over all the atmosphere was nice the waitress was awesome and the hostess had red hair and look like she was ready to breast feed yuck! I won't be going back ever!
