Alma's Place

We tried Alma’s after a review from Tik Tok and it did not disappoint! I love that the restaurant is family owned. The server was so helpful and amazing. The fish was cooked to perfection. The macaroni was delicious. I wasn’t the only one who thought so because my husband and I bought the last two. I was craving more 🤤. The chicken was crispy and to perfection as well. Even though the chicken and the seasoning of the chicken was good, as a Louisiana woman I wish the cook was a little more heavy handed with the chicken seasoning, but that could be a matter of preference. The strawberry cake and the tropical koolaid were sweet treats. I like how the koolaid was the right amount of sweet and not watery or diabetic coma like. I also had the red beans. The flavor in the seasoning was a nice ta

I got the catfish w yams/Mac & cheese. A side of potato salad, A slice of sp pie & strawberry cake. The mac & cheese was the most disappointing thing I’ve ever tasted in my life…. It taste just as bland as it looks in the picture… where is the pepper?? Never thought I’d get non seasoned food in Compton 😖. Yams was the best tasting thing but not amazing. 2 desserts were not good in my opinion. Strawberry cake had really thick dense frosting & SP pie slice was just ok. Let’s not talk about the potato salad…. This is my 2nd time visiting so I know I for sure will not be back which is too bad I love supporting black businesses but it’s too expensive for the product they are pushing out.

The best catfish I’ve ever had and one of the best Mac n cheese and potato salads I’ve ever had!! Brandon is a gracious host and Alma is so awesome. I need to try other food items, parking is right out front! Yummy food.

❤❤❤❤❤❤ The food is spectacular. I come here a lot and they never miss. I never knew his name but the person behind the counter is very nice and genuine. I enjoy his small talks. The best soul food spot in compton
