This place never fails. The food always tastes amazing and it’s ALWAYS piping hot when I get it. I eat here every week. The sticky shrimp, sweet potato cornbread, collard greens and smoked turkey leg, and the Mac and cheese. And they sent me an extra piece of cornbread. The bear didn’t stand a chance.
10/8/2025-Hello my friends, it’s me again the picky eater!!! I have been trying very hard to somehow make it to this Soul Food restaurant. It took a while, because I don’t eat out a lot and this Restaurant is in Meriden, Ct. I had gone by this restaurant many times, but the business hours were not conducive to my schedule. Anyway, let’s talk about the food!! My husband and I ordered fried chicken dinner, smothered pork chop dinner ( my husband wanted two), and the chopped pork dinner came with two sides too. We chose the collard greens and Mac and cheese. The cornbread was extra($$$$). The fried chicken dinner was very good ( chicken could use a bit more salt, but the hot sauce took care of that. My husband loved everything. I didn’t like the chopped pork that I tried, but I have never
This place is over rated. They dont have any offers thru phone numbers they have no offers thru coupons I spent 86 dollars for food that wasn't even made correct in my take out box. They dont even give the corn bread in your dinner it is considered a" side" this lady is trying to get as much money as she can through her restaurant when you go there they dont have half of what you see on the menu. Then when I call next Day to say hey" my food wasn't prepared as it should have been , they say nope I wont give you the cabbage you asked for we need to go through cameras ..... another day.. omg. So the food wasn't tasty enough for us to come back again for 86 $ for three of us to eat a buffet style food that is over priced and no taste . Thank you anyway. On top of it they wanted me to come
If I could leave a 10 star I would! My daughter has been searching for some delicious, savory, well seasoned soul food and we found the place! Everything was nice and hot and fresh, the corn bread was so moist it melted in my mouth! God bless the person that cooked it, it was definitely made with love! I am so happy we found you. I had the whiting fish and my daughter had the sticky chicken with mac and cheese and the yams omG so so delicious. 🤤 can’t wait to try the rest. Looking forward to trying the sweet potato cornbread.
Ok, First off the mac and cheese got no flavor. We orded chicken tenders as my wife is bitting into her tender she notices a BONE! Which she could have chocked ON! Shame on you cooks who cant cut a chicken TENDER correctly you leave BONE its unreal. The collard greens are very mushy no flavor the yams were OK the french fries were hard and stale tasting almost like freezer burnt. We spent our hard working money into this establishment for our dinner and never again. My kids also said i can cook better than that! I will be eating somewhere else next time!
