Update: itās been six months since I ordered from there and the food is still so good. I just ordered a 12 piece wing earlier today and oh my gosh the garlic hot is so good and their wings are super super meaty! Iām going to order from there again soon and the red beans and rice is top notch. Their Texas toast is the best! Thanks for such awesome food ! I absolutely love the food! I got the jerk chicken dinner with the six wings and I love how everything was under 20 bucks! The sauce I chose for the wings was the garlic hot and it was the best sauce Iāve ever had and I donāt remember ever having jerk chicken this good! The red beans and rice are delicious! The only question I have is do the cakes change on a daily basis? The owners and the other people at the restaurant were super nice when I called to ask them about their desserts before placing my order on Uber eats. I saw some other reviews about how long the wait is but I want to mention that when people are getting homemade fresh food itās worth the wait. Please keep up what youāre doing I will be calling back soon about your cake selection and I will definitely be ordering more food from you soon, please take all the time you need to cook it because I want homemade hot fresh food. Itās worth waiting a few extra minutes! I hope the people reading this review remember that there is true soul in this food and please let the kitchen staff take their time cooking it. It came to my door piping hot and the packaging is perfect. One final thing I want to mention is that super delicious Texas toast! I wish it was offered as an add-on that way we could add more slices. If it is then I didnāt see it on the Uber eats menu and I would love to add a few extra slices to...
Ā Ā Ā Read moreWe were recommended this spot by a friend but idk where his head is at. We got pineapple habanero wings which had NO HEAT whatsoever. They looked to be one of the spiciest things on the sauce list, especially with the habanero but it was devoid of heat and spice although the general flavor wasn't bad. The owner proudly told us the collards were made with turkey and while cooked well, were largely devoid of seasoning and salt. The greens need bacon or a commensurate seasoning here, it doesn't work without it. The mac and cheese was fine, very soupy and the cheesiness in flavor and texture was okay. We also tried the Big Papa, a 1 lb burger which was also just okay. We said medium well and that thing was cooked as well done as you can make 'em. No seating at all - you just order and take it out. The guy at the front was quite nice and took the time to speak to everything. Too bad it just wasn't a hit.
If I want solid soul food, I'm going to Welton Street Cafe. I won't be back to this spot as I felt it was largely underwhelming and mediocre.
ETA I forgot to mention we also got their peach cobbler which tasted like someone dumped a gallon of cinnamon into water, slushed it around and spread it amongst the peaches. Truly heinous and assaulting to the...
Ā Ā Ā Read moreFirst time here. It's definitely a hole in the wall restaurant which I love. Nowhere to sit inside. There's a table outside or you can wait in your car and they'll bring your food to you.
I ordered the honey bbq wings, side of greens, peach cobbler and an ice tea. They brewed the tea on the spot. The wait was quite long around 30 minutes or so. The cashier was very friendly and he apologized many times for the wait. He even included an extra side for the inconvenience which was a nice gesture!
The wings were very good and I love that they didn't skimp on the sauce. The greens weren't great. Really missing the seasoning for me as well as like some smoked hamhock bits or something. The side of red beans and rice were also not my jam. Weird seasoning for me. The peach cobbler was pretty good. It definitely had some sort of floral hint to it which I'm not use to but made well.
Overall I'd say the customer service was great as well as the wings. For the sides, it just wasn't doin it. Had family members try the sides and they agreed. I'll keep this one on my list for the wings and...
