Let's Eat Soul Food - Durham

Food is always on point. excellent customer service. Brandy is so sweet. The Caribbean Sundays are the best. Lemon cake and banana pudding is oh so good. I make sure I'm there for meatloaf Mondays.

Visiting NC from VA and this was such a delightful meal! Food was full of flavor. My family and I thoroughly enjoyed our food and received warm and friendly service. Try it for yourself, if you know good soul food you won't be disappointed!

UPDATED FROM 1ST REVIEW I've reduced my stars by one after a 2nd and 3rd gracious chance to change my mind, this place has failed to deliver the goods. Each time the food has been hyped up to more than it actually is. I've eaten tons of oxtail fromvarious places across the state and this one is by far is my least liked. The oxtail are small and tough, the rice again, wasovercooked. The cabbage were okay. nothing to brag about but okay. I also ordered the chicken wings. Basic. Just basic. Withthree tried and nothing that wows, I'm suggesting the following places: V's Kitchen for oxtail and cabbage and cornbread andpotato salad GOLDEN CORRAL for fried chicken Backyard BBQ for smothered chops and yams and potato salad SORRY. But I did try 3times. The inside dining is nice and clean. I've heard good things about this place. Maybe I showed up on the wrong day. Butwhen you say you serve smothered pork chops, I expect more than a sweeping of gravy on top of 2 fried pork chops. The flavor wasokay, but a touch too salty. The hushpuppies, with only 3 small ones in an entree just were okay. Cookout quite possibly be muchbetter. The potato salad was alright. It definitely had sweet relish and sugar present. Now the rice was cooked well. It wasnice and fluffy. It proudly would've been better without the gravy. Now the cabbage, in its smallest of servings was good. Ithad a nice clean flavor, not heavy in the seasonings or meat flavor, just some good cabbage. The texture of it was just righttoo. I hate this was my 1st experience as we need some more soul good in the area. I'm going to go back because i want to trythe oxtail. But it's a wrap for them alleged smothered chops.

I love seasoned chicken, but it was too salty for my taste. The okra was fried to perfection. The soufflé was mid. The greens were good. The restaurant was clean. The host gentleman was friendly and invited us back. I'd go back, but it better bestrawberry banana pudding that day. I am out of state and can't just go whenever.

The food is really good. It cooked to order, so you will have to wait. But it's worth every minute. Everything was well seasoned, hot and fresh. The young lady at the register was friendly and helpful. 10 out of 10...would recommend. Those friedpork chops....just yum.
