★★★☆☆ 3.0 Shir Carson · Jun 2022

Under new management A-la-carte. Had the beef tips and rice with Collars greens, potato salad, and macaroni and cheese, with a piece of corn bread. Clean and presentable inside. Small and very intimate space with light entertainment while you wait. Has a restroom as well. Desserts are available, we tried the red velvet cake. It was moist and very flavorful, not homemade. The portions were small compared to the price. Each side was $1.50 to $2.50. Serve beverage and tea. The Staff were pleasant.

★☆☆☆☆ 1.0 Candace Davison · Oct 2023

I drove all the way over here for my lunch, and it was closed. I'd heard good reviews and decided to try it out. I called first to see what was the daily menu, but no one answered. I figured it was because they may be crowded and drove there anyway. NOPE. They were closed. When I googled everything was a go, showing opened. It also shows online they serve breakfast, but nope. I was just trying to find another soul food restaurant to add to my list, but inconsistency is a major turn off.

★★★★★ 5.0 Clint Simmons · Oct 2016

Hands down, the best home cooked meal I've had away from home! The people were kind, and generous with the portions too! Couldn't get more food on the plate, even if you wanted too! And the price was easy on the pocket book! Thanks Cathy, and Momma Ruby too!

★★★★★ 5.0 Shaoxuan Li · Feb 2020

Decided to give it a try and was pleasantly surprised. Oxtail is very tasty, not too salty, and very tender, not tough at all! The cabbage was on point also. Ms. Kathy the owner was very friendly. Don't be fooled by the unassuming exterior, come in for some truly amazing home cooked southern food.
