First let me start by saying the entire staff was AMAZING! Top notch customer service from the time my family and I entered the building until the time we left! The hostess (I didn’t catch her name but it starts with an A) greeted us with a friendly smile and assured us our wait to be seated wouldn’t be long which it was not.

Let’s move to our waiter David (Mr. Mississippi!) he was super helpful on suggesting what we should order. He gave his honest opinion on each dish and was a lot of fun to interact with! He kept checking on us when each appetizer came out to see how we liked it as well as our food. When I stated my greens was mostly juice he offered to take them back and bring me out another one. He said “I want to make sure my tables leave full” that statement let me know he truly cares about his customer’s experience which is often times rare in a black establishment (I hate to say it but it’s the truth) so when you go in there ask for David!

Now let’s get down to the food - The complimentary cornbread muffins were amazing! They served them with a butter spread that had a hint of honey! It was soooooooooo good! And they served them in these tiny skillets which I thought were super cute ☺️ As an appetizer we ordered the collard green egg rolls and fried green tomatoes. Them egg rolls was SLAPPIN’ super flavorful and absolutely delicious!!! 😋 It was like an entire party in my mouth! Best egg roll that’s ever graced my palate! It’s a MUST TRY! The fried green tomatoes were small and thin but they were delicious. The breading was seasoned very well and the SGK sauce was phenomenal! I will say I wish they cut the tomatoes a little thicker and they were larger in size but taste wise they did not disappoint! 🔥🔥🔥

For our entree we all ordered the Southern Bumpkin which was meatloaf with brown gravy on a top of mashed potatoes with yams, greens, Mac and cheese . The meatloaf was mushy and SUPER SALTY 🥺 I wish the meatloaf would be a little firmer then it was. It literally looked like and had the texture of Purina wet dog food. DO NOT ORDER THE MEATLOAF 🙅🏽‍♀️🙅🏽‍♀️. The greens were packed with flavor and had a nice kick to them they were GOOOOOOD!! The yams were cooked to perfection! Not too sweet just RIGHT! Now let’s talk about this Mac and cheese that came out late but lukewarm. It was runny and SALTY SALTY SALTY OMG 😳 by the time I left there I had a headache because I know my blood pressure went up due to the amount of salt in the food. We did order some oxtails to go and they were good (surprisingly they weren’t super salty they had just the right amount of seasoning)

This place has so much potential to be the BEST soul food restaurant in Plano! I would HIGHLY suggest the owner or head cook revisit the recipes and CUT BACK ON THE SALT. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE! Yes the food holds a LOT of flavor but the salt was overpowering.

I will return for sure because the customer service and atmosphere was on point but I won’t order the meatloaf or Mac and cheese. And due to the saltiness of the food is why I rated them a 3 star vs 5 star.
