Ok now she put her whole foot in this food. The Mac and cheese? Lord have mercy I could have eaten an entire pan. The fried chicken was crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. Greens, full of flavor in every bite. The sweet tea whew!!! 1000000000000000% recommend. Please try this place out. Only thing is everything is fresh made so it will take about 20 minutes to get your food after ordering!

Sooo so good !!! We got the combo plate which had the Best fried chicken, Mac n cheese, mustard greens, and candied yams. With some amazing peach cobbler and sweet tea. Im not a sweet tea fan but my bf is, and let me tell you that tea changed my mind on sweet tea 1000%. There was so much food we had it for lunch and dinner. And even lunch the next day !! Highly highly reccomend! 5 stars across the board ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Honestly this is come of the best soul food I’ve had in a long time. Greens are amazing, Mac and cheese is good. Chicken cooked very well. The red beans and rice was my favorite. Great customer service .

Our first time trying Josephine Southern Kitchen after seeing it on Instagram, and it did not disappoint! My son and I went on Saturday, and everything was absolutely delicious. The food was so refreshing and tasted just like authentic Alabama home cooking. It was seasoned perfectly and full of flavor. The customer service was amazing. The lady who greeted us was so kind and welcoming — she really made us feel comfortable from the moment we walked in. We truly enjoyed our experience and will definitely be back!!!!

Great food! Good sized portions, flavorful. Everything is made to order, so it was hot and fresh! She was nice, helpful and overall good vibes. I've been following her since she was doing pop ups at the Hayward Farmers Market, I'm so happy she is expanding and growing!
