This food felt spiritual!! Me and my friend tried it on a whim while visiting our friend in Providence, and what happy accident. We go to school in Massachusetts, so it’s safe to say we haven’t had GOOD soul food in a minute—Geegee’s was an incredible reminder. We ordered two plates to share amongst us: the Lemon pepper wing plate with collard greens, mac, and it came with corn bread; and a catfish, jumbo shrimp plate with potato salad. When I say everything was excellent, everything was excellent. We tried the mac first (as that’s where people tend to go wrong) and were PLEASANTLY surprised at how delicious it was—especially for being made so quickly in comparison to homemade mac. The seasoning on the meats were exceptional, and the catfish especially was so juicy (it was also my first ti

Windows was absolutely FILTHY!! I drove there last month, it was suppose to be open but it was closed,. We waited there for 1 hr. nobody Ever showed up. We really couldn’t see inside because the windows were so Filthy. I’m personally wondering if the windows was that dirty, the kitchen must be dirty as well, my personal opinion! Next time I will come alone just to see how the food really taste,. I bet, nothing matches the photos they show on social media?!

Ordered a pork chop dinner and BLT sandwich for take out. Got a call back 10 mins after the order was placed (ready time was suppose to be 15 mins so I was already driving there) with they didn’t have any pork chops ok not pleased I asked for a smash burger instead and asked if I could get fries comped for the inconvenience… “No my mom is the owner and would never allow it.” Frustrated more I said what ever I’ll take just the smash burger and blt. Ok. Then get a call 8 mins after from the owner (mom) that they don’t have burgers or blt items. No appologies or anything. how do you not have most of your menu items? For being a southern place definitely no hospitality at all. Will not recommend or give another chance. Please do better

I had their food at a catered event at Brown University. An 11 on a scale of 1 to 10. Gee Gee's food was phenomenal, especially ribs, macaroni and cheese, and corn bread. I rarely review on Google, but I felt compelled to do so today.

Was looking forward to visiting this place for some time! So let me start with my eyes. the place was clean neat very pleasant. There was one person behind a counter helping a gentleman who was paying. So we took a seat at the counter and waited to be waited on, the young lady at register says "can I help you" being that it was about 20 feet away I assumed she would walk over to us, not what happened 😧 so I got up and went to her and ordered my food! The wait was roughly 20 minutes or so, during this time there was a tv on the wall playing music videos. good thing I wasn't with any children because the songs selected all of them had very bad language!!! I mean, if I were at a club or hanging wit the fellas it would hve been koo but not for any restaurant, my opinion.. also there w
