The Southern Pot

Review for Southern Pot Restaurant (Columbia Mall Food Court, 2 Notch Road): I am very disappointed with my experience at Southern Pot Restaurant. The food was extremely unappetizing and honestly inedible. The turkey wing was undercooked, the macaroni and cheese tasted like instant Easy Mac from a box, and the yams were straight out of a can with an old, stale flavor. The cabbage was no better—it tasted as if it had been sitting out far too long. Nothing on my plate was fresh or worth eating, and yet it was sold at $20 a plate, which is unacceptable for the quality I received. I was so dissatisfied that I had to drive all the way back from my house just to return the food. This kind of food should never have been served to customers. It should have been thrown out and replaced with fres

I’m going to give it a 3 only because I did really like the cornbread but not sure if my turkey wings were left out or what. Seems like it was sitting so it seem a little overcooked and for $20 a plate I expected it to be a little better. Not sure if they cook was having an off day or not and didn’t too much enjoyed the fried pork chop. The cabbage could’ve been seasoned a little better too.

Food is delicious. I can eat the sides by themselves. Pork chops were hugeee (I like small ones)!! Food worth the money.

I had an amazing experience at this soul food restaurant! The food tasted just like home-cooked comfort full of flavor and love in every bite. The fried chicken was crispy on the outside and perfectly seasoned, the cabbage and collard greens were tender and well-seasoned, and the macaroni and cheese was creamy and rich. The yams were sweet and buttery, and the rice tied everything together perfectly. You can really tell the food is made with care and tradition. I’ll definitely be coming back for another plate this is real soul food done right!!!

I ordered from here through Doordash. I ordered smothered chops, rice & gravy, mac and cheese and the fried chicken. Everything was delicious seasoned well. The chop could been fried little more. The mac was delicious! Fried chicken crispy and seasoned. Just a tip if y'all can use the food paper sheets that be in food plates so it can separate fried food from the wet food. Will order again! Ohhh on doordash if you order a plate you get three sides but DoorDash only asks for one side. Also some the other plates don't allow you to put no sides at all. So the driver would have to ask me which sides I would like ☺️. Please update that so you won't miss out on orders.
