This is my second time going to the restaurant my first time I had the smothered pork chops with Mac and cheese and collard greens, and the second order was baked turkey wings and the same sides. I thought the smothered pork chops was made in gravy.( NOPE) they fried the chops the poured gravy over them so I asked you not going to put the chops in a saute pan with the gravy to get them smothered. ( NOPE) the gravy was flat no taste what's so ever.The turkey wings was big as heck ( I'm use to the baby turkey wings ).But they where ok needed some seasoning . The best thing on the dish was the Mac and cheese. The collard greens had a little spice and sweet taste. You put flavor in the sides but nothing on the meats. So I said I'm going to give them another shot. So I went back to day 8/4/23 this time I ordered the chicken wings with Mac and cheese and potato salad.. ( I took one bite ) The wings was bland not a drop of seasoning not even pepper. The Mac and cheese was good but the potato salad was watery and sweet. My thing is how can you have seasoned sides but not your entree. If they have a a recipe for all the entrees and sides someone is not following a recipe. And the chicken wings dinner cost me $21. 00 and the two dinners I got the other day cost me $44-$46. The Crew that was working on both of my visits was nice and friendly. But I'm not rushing to go back....

Collard greens spicy and a little over seasoned. I can live with that. Mac and cheese old and dry. But I was really enraged and insulted at the "catfish." It was not catfish at all and this ticked me off. The main reason I ordered from this place was because I wanted catfish Being a pescatarian I know my fish. They are cheating people who don't know any better and giving them Swai/Basa fish cut into nuggets. Catfish usually has skin, it's a very fatty/buttery fish with a ocean taste. Swai is very white and soft inside, never has skin and the consistency when cooked too long loses its flakiness. Catfish will remain flaky. So basically they are advertising catfish and giving people swai which can be found for as little as $2.99 a pound. Because their integrity is shot, I would never order from here again. Who knows what other corners they cut. Terrible to do to people.

I will never order from here again, I order the fried chicken platter with cabbage and Mac and cheese also a side of white rice and yams, that Mac n cheese was bitter and sour and it had hair in my Mac n cheese, then they gave me collard greens instead of cabbage, the yams taste like they were boiled in water and put in a cup and served just like that, I didn’t get to try the rest of the food because the hair was in my food so I wasn’t chancing it, my first and last time ever eating here, I called the store and told them the situation about hair in my food, the person told me the owner is not in but I can leave my name and number and she’ll either call me today or tomorrow🤦♀️, good luck to all that eat here because this is unacceptable how nobody cares about health and safety at the store.

Beautifully decorated restaurant with an Afrocentric theme and delicious food and friendly attentive staff. Dining area has plenty of tables as well as picture window counter seating (perfect for solo dining). The menu has a variety of choices including: appetizers, sides, entrees, desserts and beverages. Vegetarians will enjoy the choices here. Prices are appropriate for the large portions. Eat-in (smooth & relaxing vibe), take-out (call ahead because food is made fresh to order) or delivery. There is a shared parking lot as well as free street parking.

I would give two stars because the Mac and Cheese tasted sharp and tasty but to send me undercooked Turkey wings is almost a sin to the culture. Not kinda cooked or just needs a lil time. Completely tough and a bit red . They cannot be chewed at all.. Insulting to be honest. Just reject the order via app before doing that . I cannot say that I can trust an establishment who would really send food like that knowing Turkey wings take time to cook so , no, I can’t say I’d try them again.

Alex took care of me real cool brother! Ask for him when you arrive!!! The portions are decent I got the smothered turkey, candied yams, and five cheese mac n cheese!!! Price was not that crazy at all! I would suggest if you are in the area stop by and give it a try. The atmosphere inside was very clean and trendy had lots of parking on side of building! As a local of over 30+ years I can say we did not have this growing up and it is definitely a good look for the area!
