Ella Mae’s Soulfood

NOT WHAT IT USED TO BE.

To be fair, I've been patronizing this place since it's opening. The portions used to be more than fair for the price. Catfish dinners would come with 2 big pieces of fish, mac n cheese was delicious. So delicious I usually would order double mac with my dinner. I recommended this place to family and friends.

Unfortunately, my most recent visit was not the same, they "fell off"! This ain't it sis! This mac n cheese is now trash 🗑. I seen others complain on reviews, now I see what they meant.

Take a look at the photos I've uploaded and compare them to the reposted and recycled pics from their IG. There is no way those are same-day photos because this mac was not the same as what was posted the day I ordered this. Those pictures are from when the food tasted better. I never knew mac n cheese could lack enough noodles until now, like a cheesy noodle soup. I like cheese but this was all wrong, soupy, wet, with few noodles. In addition, the seasoning was off, noodles themselves felt overcooked. The 2 pieces of fish were not the normal big Catfish pieces I've come to know from this place for $15. The taste of the fish was fine however.

One last thing to note... if u call in, be prepared to call a few times because it's hard to get through. Very hard, but I recommend calling in advance if you do decide to try this place. I may try them 1 more time before I give up on them.

To owners: Come on yall, we were all rooting for you! We need good soulfood in our communities. Turn this place back around please.
