These reviewers are crazy. That or they grew up in a household where whoever was cooking (mom, grandma I'm talking about you lol) didn't know what the hell they were doing. They obviously don't know better. I got to the Ballentine location 45 minutes before closing. About 7 other people were in there waiting. I ordered a 8pc dinner, mac and cheese and string beans and 2 orders of bread pudding since these reviewers raved about this place. My order was a whopping $37. The chicken wasn't cooked to order, and not flavorful. The chicken didn't look or taste good. The Mac and cheese wasn't baked. Fine, budget mac and cheese but, it was soggy (overcooked pasta) and watered-down cheesy. The green beans were were overly dosed in smoke-meat flavoring but no meat to be seen. None of this is quality soul food. And the puffs? You gotta be kidding me. People get excited about getting BS-ed. It a deep-fried can biscuit folks. Too many better options around town including fast food.

The restaurant itself was fairly clean (although not perfect and showing some age) and the associate accepting the order was friendly. (Note that this is more of a fast food environment than a sit down restaurant.) The food itself was made quickly and the chicken breasts appeared to be made fresh. I had the corn pudding and macaroni and cheese for the sides. The sides were small and tasted fine, but nothing was extra special. The chicken was crispy and cooked well, but was kind of plain. Nothing was bad, but there wasn’t anything to bring me back. I will most likely visit Kentucky Fried Chicken rather than Pollards. It wasn’t bad, but it was all kind of average/ordinary.

I came in because it was close. Ordered around 2pm. I ordered an 8 pc with 2 sides and puffs.. As I waited, I looked up reviews and was scared to get mine! Terrible reviews, however my experience was better than most. Food was made to order, mashed potatoes were good. The chicken and puffs had a little more grease than I’d prefer. Like the puff oozed oil as you bit in, but the chicken wasn’t as greasy. It was fried/seasoned perfectly. Everything was fresh. I didn’t get to try the beans. Not pricey, clean establishment. Staff were friendly too. Id come back tbh

Pollard chicken at ballentine blvd in Norfolk Virginia is a restaurant that serves soul food! Their specialty is fried chicken & it is soooo very delicious & thats not just fact but down right the truth!!!!

As a Matter of fact, all the food served is famously delicious!!! from their fried chicken, pork chop dinners, barbque pork & their delicious puffs are also delicious when honey is applied.

Your stomach will be thanking you for this treat to your palate!!! The staff is exceptional friendly & after your order is received, they will serve you at whatever table you sit at! . THE STAFF goes to great lengths to make the customer feel welcome & comfortable while they work their magic on whatever you ordered!!!

I might also add, the food they serve to their customers is by no means a small meal but rather a large meal. You will be full after eating & you will definitely get your money's worth!!!

Be it a chicken liver dinner or a gizzard dinner or mixed with both of these 2 orders, they are delicious as soul food goes, from their chicken orders popping hot,to their pork chops, barbecue & you have to try their corn muffins And their puffs with honey.

, the food at this sure nuff soul kitchen serving soul food is off the hook and will find you coming back again & again!!! . They also sell pastries! Soooo, what you waiting on??? Go & check this soul food eatery out!!!

I guarantee you will find yourself coming back again & again. You will come with a flat stomach but your stomach will definitely be poking out a bit when you leave because the food is delicious & they will serve you more than enough food!!!

You won't be sorry & thats the bottom line cause Jimi mck done told you about this place, soooo go & see for yourself, you will be so glad you did!!!

The food comes to your table popping hot, not cold & not warm but as in HOT, HOT & HOT. So...

I’ve given pollard 1 star in the past because of poor customer service. Honestly customer service as a whole had taken a huge hit all over. We’ve lost sight of how to be kind, have empathy and take care of each other. It this experience with pollard has really given me joy. I went in ans was greeted immediately as well as the environment had great energy and the employees were smiling and speaking with customers as if they were friends. My order took a while to come up and I asked for an eta. The cashier checked the stand and saw it was sitting there the whole time. She immediately apologized and assumed responsibility as well as offered me a free dessert. I told her no worries it’s a lot going on but could I have my food reheated. She told me that she will get me fresh chicken and throw an extra piece in for the inconvenience. Unfortunately I got home and the puff was in the bag either. Buttttt.... Honestly it was worth the wait due to the High energy/positive environment and seeing how courteous and genuinely kind the 2 cashiers were. Based on this experience I’ll definitely come back! I hope this is a consistent...

Tuesday evening 2/13/18 my was in Portsmouth and stopped for a dinner at Pollards Chicken on George Washington Hwy. After he finished his meal he sat quietly in the dining room watching tv (not bothering a soul and minding his own business) and the white woman who owns that location sent her black employee over to him and told him he needed to leave. The reason was because he was making the owner UNCOMFORTABLE! He got up and left. A little later when we spoke he told me what happened and needless to say I was furious to hear this. I called the restaurant and got a young black girl on the phone, she acknowledged everything he said had happened and explained that the reason he was told to leave was because a store down the street had an incident with a black man a few nights ago. Needless to say I told her how wrong that was and reminded her that was racial discrimination against him and I promised that I would make everyone one in that area know about how they treat their BLACK...
