Gracie’s Kitchen — Restaurant in Memphis

My co-workers wanted me to find new soul food place to try and I am so happy I chose this place! When I first pulled up I was still unsure if I made a good choice because there was only one person in line but by the time they were done servicing that customer the line was 10+ deep after me. Its locally and black owned which is the type of businesses I love to support!

The food is off the chain! There is enough for me to eat on this plate 2-3 times and for a really very reasonable price. When you order the turkey & dressing you get a whole turkey wing with a couple of scoops of dressing, I recommend getting that over just the whole wing plate. The mac & cheese is probably some of the best I have ever had. My plate is the one with lima beans, the only thing I would change is adding black pepper to the lima beans which i did after my first taste. I'll definitely be returning until I've been able to try everything they have! my coworkers said they loved everything on their plates!

The customer service was not bad but it wasn't great either. They weren't rude or anything but it was strictly, what do you want and keep it moving type situation. Wont keep me from going back as long as they are open but worth a mention for those who expect all the courtesies to be given.

It was carryout only but I'm not sure if that's just for lunch, they didn't have a big dining area but may have it open for...

My first visit was okay. There was a line and only one person fixing the food so it took longer than expected. So if you plan on going please kno you will be there for a minute. They also had people waiting orders on the side. My best advice would be to call in. What I did not like was that there were no prices listed but they had monitors. Also with the long line you don't have time to ask what is what so you have to kind of keep it moving or just know. They don't have many selections but when I went I ended up getting the turkey and dressing and a veggie plate which cost me almost about $30. The seasoning was good and it was a good size portion I guess except for the greens. I could have got a little more to be honest. They are not over seasoned so that's a plus for me because who wants to eat salty food. Some of the vegetables that I have any salt so you might have to add to your own liking. There are some tables there to sit down and eat but with it being so packed I would not recommend it. It was only three workers so be mindful when waiting. I might try them again but on another day. My cornbread also had a little burn on it but it was okay too. They can remind me of country cooking or Southern hands would you know both of them...

Not my first time coming here but first time leaving a comment. The fried chicken is awesome!!! Comes with two sides that you will not disappointed by either. Sundays are their busy days so be prepared to wait in line if you come after church let's out but it is worth the wait. I won't give them less than 5 stars simply because it is HOT inside the establishment, which should be understandable because of all the heat being drawn from the fresh cooking that is occurring. Staff is polite and not rude. Only poor experience I had is when I ordered my fried wings in person, which they cook when you ordered, with a side of mashed potatoes and they did not put my mashed potatoes to the side and gave it to customers that ordered after me and they were sold out by the time my food was ready...again. still not worthy of my giving less than a 5 star rating but just know this could happen to you...
