The food was exactly what I expected, Delicious!! The cook was also the person that brought my food out to the table. She was a very sweet lady. I had pig feet, cabbage/ greens mix, and sweet potatoes. It was the best cabbage/greens I’ve had. Can’t wait to come back.

Came in on a Sunday a little later in the service, so the choices were limited as they had sold out of most of their food..I wanted to try all their food and I was able to order catfish, ribeye, black eyed peas, Mac and cheese, potatoes and beans, and the cabbage and green mix, and got a salmon cake.. the catfish was cooked to order, and all the sides were hot and fresh. Food was great. The owner was very friendly. She checked on me multiple times and made sure I was taken care of. This place is the real deal for a down home Sunday dinner. I will def be back. 5 stars..
