I went to the āsoft openingā and returned the next week (though I wanted to return the next day) to enjoy this killer seasons and prepared food. I had the Jerk Chicken Dinner with rice and beans and cabbage. The chicken was sooooo good; great flavor and texture. The cabbage (and I cook good cabbage) was superior. How does Auntee Veeās get that much flavor in cabbage?? Oh! The cornbreadā¦the cornbread is the BOMBā¼ļø I suggested she sell it by the pan. It a texture and flavor winner. Iād go back just for that! Now, if you have a sweet tooth, then feel free to pick randomly because over my toe visits I tried them all, took some home to share, and they are all killer good, especially the Banana Pudding, Chocolate Chip CookiesBo, Peach Cobbler. Wow! The flavors, the flavors and textureāaddictive food, for sure. Oh yes, itās no wonder she is an award winner for her Mac nā Cheese, itās to die for. Friends, I live almost 40 miles away and Iām heading back to Auntie Veeās a 3rd time in less than a month; itās worth the time and cost (which I think is underpriced). Besides the food, I felt welcomed, appreciated as a customer, and served by the most beautiful spirited wait-staff ever. The second time I was there I leisurely dined and got some work done (using their complimentary WiFi). And in all that time I was there they never rush me out. If you like Al fresco dining, they have a beautiful front-facing patio. Check out the patio ambiance in the evening with the enchanting lights and music. Even if you cooked dinner (and live closer than I do) head to Auntie Veeās for dessert. No regrets, only anticipating my next dining...
Ā Ā Ā Read moreI canāt believe Iām actually writing this during the month of Ramadan about Muslim business owners as another Muslim im always super supportive to my black and Islamic communities especially the women and to have had the experience I had today while fasting trying to break my fast me and my family Iām super disappointed. We placed our order at 649 and didnāt receive it until 830 and we had to break fast with water and wait an additional hour. We called because the order expired on the app and they two women were extremely rude and condescending telling us we were supposed to call when we got to the lobby she said āwell how was I supposed to know you were here?ā Iām like maybe based off the time of delivery or when you said the food was ready on the app? Then she says well itās only 825 your time was 820 whatās the problem????? Maybe I waited an hour and 30 minutes thus far? Just to meet her in the lobby and her see that Iām Muslim and never said thank you or anything with an attitude on her face. Clearly this establishment thinks we need them and customer service isnāt important and itās sad to see. I hoped I was an anomaly but then I saw how nasty they respond to customers on their instagram so unprofessional. All this for mediocre food! Philadelphia Muslims where Iām from would never. I would never spend a dime with them or recommend them to anyone. $70 dollars for 2 platters just to be treated like this? I can only imagine how they act outside of...
Ā Ā Ā Read moreSince this is a black owned business, I decided to show support. Iāve only seen great reviews about this place on Google reviews and TikTok so I was hoping that my experience would go smoothly, but it didnāt. I waited almost 2 hours for 2 peach cobblers and a slushee that was kind of half a** made, and in total it costed $23. Their slushees arenāt really slushees theyāre just ice cubes from the soda machine and purĆ©e mixā¦now it didnāt taste bad but it was hard to drink since the cubes werenāt blended properly and the straw was to slim to drink through it properly. The peach cobbler could have been so much better and for me to wait two hours for it I expected it to come out hot and fresh, instead it was hard and overcooked and was greasy? People that came in way after me got their food before me and they had actual meals I only had dessert so Iām confused as to why it took about 1 hour and 30 minutes to make my food. Itās not like I ordered a whole entire cobblerā¦.Nobody came over to make sure that I was okay or to give me an update on my order, I had to walk to the kitchen/bar area and sit down over there to remind the person who took my order to check on my order. I really want to give them another chance but Iām afraid Iām going to experience the same...
