★ 4.3 / 5 (3143 reviews)

Lizzy's Soul Food presents a polarized dining experience, with some patrons raving about its deliciously seasoned offerings, particularly the wings and fish basket, which are praised for their authenticity and generous portions. However, service complaints abound, with reports of favoritism towards male customers and long wait times overshadowing the culinary delights. Some dishes, like the mac and cheese and reheated wings, left a disappointing taste for others. Despite this inconsistency, many firmly believe Lizzy’s holds the potential to nourish both soul and body, urging others to try the fare and judge for themselves.

Was Rebecca M at Lizzy's a mag?
Everything I tried here—stewed chicken, mac and cheese, cabbage, and cupcakes—was fantastic. The cupcake tasted just like a delicious homemade treat, which I've been craving for years since most store-bought ones are disappointing. Overall, the food was absolutely wonderful! View all feedback.

What George G dislikes about Lizzy's:
Lizzys Soul Food?? This food hurt my soul, the wing basket tasted like it was made yesterday and poorly reheated. The wings also had a funny smell to them that was very off putting. I also ordered the Mac and cheese and I did not taste the "soul" in it. Extremely disappointing. View all feedback.

I read the reviews, and it feels like I had a meal from a completely different restaurant! My takeout was the best I've had in a long time. The fish basket was fantastic; the fish was perfectly breaded, seasoned, and fried! The potato salad and baked beans tasted just like my homemade versions, which is hard to find elsewhere. The beans were sweet with a hint of spice that I use but that no one else seems to replicate, and the potato salad was just as delicious! While the mac and cheese and fries don't require complex techniques, they were prepared exactly the way I like them! Overall, this was truly the best takeout I've experienced in years, and I can't wait to order from them again in the future!
