Was Anonym at Save Me Some a mag?
I recently found this place when I purchased a home in Calumet City. Myself, my family and friends have ordered from here several times. Honestly my food has always been fresh, plentiful and flavorful. It's hard to find a soul food place where all the sides DON'T taste like they come out a can. This is now my soul food place on the South Side of town. Great food and always a great experience. View all feedback.

What Anonym dislikes about Save Me Some:
They didn’t quite get it right with the smashed pigeon; you actually need to crush it rather than just pouring it over. We also ordered the fish and huh, both of which were fried too hard. View all feedback.

I ordered the short rib macaroni and cheese along with candied yams. Unfortunately, the macaroni was extremely dry and lacked freshness, while the ribs had little meat on them. Overall, there wasn't much to enjoy, and I won't be returning.

Jacqueline and I ordered two dinners through UberEATS this afternoon because for the first this week, I had an appitite since starting chemotherapy. I woke up wanting beef short ribs, rice/ gravy, dressing and greens. Since the Chemo, my mouth is sore and swallowing is difficult so I REQUESTED EXTRA GRAVY ON THE RICE AS WELL AS THE MEAT. I was so disappointed because I had a tablespoon of gravy on the rice and absolutely NOTHING on the beef short ribs. I wasn't able to eat my dinner so I gave it to Jacqueline and ate some fruit. I spoke with the owner who stated she would try and bring a replacement, but so far ... Nothing. I couldn't rate it because I was unable to eat it. This was our FIRST time trying this establishment. I wish them well UPDATE**I can now give Save Me Some a 5 Star Rating. The owner reached back out to me and went way above ANY owner/ restaurant I've EVER dealt with to ensure my satisfaction. I'm deeply grateful and appreciative. I was too exhausted to eat, but trust and believe I sampled a little of everything I received and I will forever be a loyal customer when I'm in need of some great Soul Food. I see nothing but GREAT things happening for you. Thank you and keep up the EXCELLENT customer service.

I went there today and ordered meatloaf makkaroni and cheese and yams, when I say this food looks like it was sitting in a refrigerator for 3 days and then heated again. I don't know how someone might be proud to serve something that looked so terrible that the makkaroni and be so cheeky and look as old as the sweetness yams looked like they were sitting at the bottom of the pot for 3 days and they just sat it in the container and gave it to me the meat laaf oh my gott was a part of the terrible food I've ever been trying to find out. I do not recommend anyone who wastes their money in this restaurant
