Call before you make the drive to find out if they re open.
Call to find out what items are on the menu. ( I'll explain in my review. I wish I had done this)
I had read past reviews on Google and Facebook before I visited this place.
I thought it would be in my best interest that I call to make sure they're were open before I took the drive. I called and I received confirmation that they were open.
The establishment was easy to find. The outside of the building needed a lot of TLC. The grass needed to be mowed and weeds pulled. The could also spruce the outside by possibly adding some flowers or plants or some planters. It would cost less than $150. to make the outside of this establishment a 100×'s better. First impressions matter and my first impression was not a good one.
I entered the building and there is an older couple placing their order. It appeared the employee was having trouble with the cash register. It took him about 10 min to fix the issue. The customer ask the employee how long will it take to complete his order and if he was the only person working? The employee told him it would take him about 15 min and he is the only one working.
I figure he would take my order before he goes on the kitchen since he is the only one working but he goes in the kitchen instead to prepare their order. He comes back out in about 6 min to take my order and that is when I was met with disappointment. I noticed the menu only has four options: fried pork chops, smothered pork chops, chicken wings, and chicken breast and an assortment of sides. I was hoping to get meatloaf because that was suppose to be the Sunday special according to their menu or even barbeque chicken, ribs, or fish.
I was already there so I opted to get fried pork chops with greens and mac n cheese and chicken wings with mac and cheese in yams.
I arrived at 12:20pm and I received my food at 1:05PM. I opened my food in the restaurant parking lot and tried the fried pork chops.
Review of First Meal: The pork chops were hot but flavorless and dry. The greens were ok but very salty. The mac n cheese was disgusting. It was cold and there was barely any cheese. There is no way the mac n cheese was made same day. I am convince it was made the day before or possibly days ago and warmed in a microwave.
Review of Second meal: The wings were hot and taste ok. There wasn't anything special about them but they were fresh. The mac n cheese was disgusting(read above review). The yams smelled good but they did not look fresh. They look very questionable so I did not eat them. I didn't want to get sick.
Another employee (pregnant woman) arrived around 12:50 and I heard her tell someone on the phone that the dinning room was closed to eat. There is nothing on their facebook or the door that provides this info. Call and ask if the dinning room is open if you're interested in eating in the restaurant.
Each meal cost 14 and it wasn't worth it. The restaurant menu and the written menu were not the same prices. I should have received a discount since I didn't receive any cornbread/corn muffin because the restaurant didn't make it that day.
Would I go back? NO Would I recommend this restaurant? No. I am also convince some of the reviews aren't by people who have...
Read moreI came into Leesburg and quickly searched for a place to eat. Divine Soul Food caught my eye because to have “Divine” associated with your food,it must be great. And to my happily surprise it was delicious. Dinner(breast meal) lunch (chili cheese dog) and Breakfast (All is well breakfast platter) which I enjoyed my last day in Leesburg. Staff is very sweet.
