Great spot. The Cuban sandwich was very flavorful and the corn on the cob with butter was savory and juicy. High quality food with exceptional customer service!
Friendly crew. I ordered the Fried Pork chops, meedium rare. Greens and Mash. The pork was cooked correctly!! Loved it. The greens were excellent! The brown gravey did not taste house made and did not taste correct no rue here... recommend to stay with the white gravy or none. I do recommend this place for a good meal
Food was good. I ordered beef tips, greens and green beans and tea. Got most correct, received pork that the tails of the ribs -- was very good, little sauce -just the way I would cook it.
3FEB23 ordered the Salisbury steak with mash greens and tea. It was a good choice. The place still does not have vinegar sauce. I upped the service because it was good this time.
16FEB23. I ordered the country fried chicken, I dropped my rating from 5 to 3 stars. The chicken was stupidly over cooked, I ask if I could get dark meat and the staff man laughed and said it was all breast. The only good thing was the green beans and fries. This was the worst meal I have had from this place, it is not so bad that I will not come back. The cook should have not served the driest chicken I ever had. The white gravy did not help a bit.
21FEB23 I ordered the fried pork chops. This was the best chops I have had outside of my home! I could not finish my plate as I was full. I requested mid rare or medium chops and is was cooked perfectly! The greens are still the best - Brothers in blue water bay needs to taste these and adjust! I changed my overall rating back to 5 stars
This was my 1st time here. One of the owners mother was working and she is such a pleasant sweet lady. The place is nice inside and the food is great. If you are wanting down home southern cooking this is the place to visit!!! I will be back.
My husband and I decided to patronize this establishment based on the recommendation of someone from work. I am elated that we decided to eat lunch here!!
First, the gentleman (I am assuming one of the owners), was very inviting and acknowledged us, as soon as we walked in the door. He was in the midst of cleaning from another big group but he helped us within a few minutes.
They have a great selection of soul food, sandwiches, burgers, and wraps. We finally decided on the fried porkchops with 2 sides and the Reuben & fries. For the sides, we tried the mac & cheese and fried okra! First and foremost, all of the food were skillfully seasoned. There wasn't a bland morsel among the fare of delectable foods. Like I told the gentleman, it's like eating at home on a Sunday evening! The Reuben was moist, seasoned, and satisfying. The sauerkraut wasn't overpowering but it hit beautifully with corned beef, melted swiss cheese, and the special dressing. Next, the pork chops were prodigious! They were fried to perfection and they also had Louisiana hot sauce to accompany this amazing soul food! The okra was too tasty! Sometimes, okra is not cooked properly and it's either slimy or taste like hard pebbles - THIS okra were not either of those! They were fried perfectly and lightly salted. The mac and cheese was creamy. You could tell it was made with love. The ONLY tweak I would make is bake it with a layer of cheese on top, so, it can have that thin baked layer of crispy cheese on top. But really, that's just a small adjustment based on my tastes.
Lastly, the gentleman allowed me to try the slush with my lemonade. I told him I would try it next time and he brought me a complimentary cup with a sample of each of his flavors. It was GOOD! It wasn't overly sweet or sour and it complimented the Sun Fresh, I was drinking. Also, it cooled my mouth from the Louisiana hot sauce!
Our overall visit was an A+. The food was hot, homemade, well-seasoned, and exceptional. I would recommend this place every day of the week and twice on Sunday! Thank you for a wonderfully authentic meal!
