Carmi
Description
This restaurant offers a mixed yet memorable dining experience. Signature dishes like shrimp and grits, chicken and waffles, yams, greens, and mac and cheese consistently impress with rich, flavorful seasoning and generous portions. The cornbread and smoked ribs also receive high praise for their taste and texture. While some patrons note inconsistencies, such as underwhelming fried green tomatoes and limited portion sizes, the attentive staff and vibrant atmosphere create a welcoming environment. Takeout-only service and occasional operational hiccups have frustrated some guests, but overall, the cuisine remains a standout choice for soulful, Southern comfort food lovers.

Maybe I caught you on a bad day but as someone from the south I’m embarrassed that you called this soul food. No flavor, no sauce. I got Mac and cheese, brisket, meatloaf, and mashed potatoes. How can you smoke brisket and it have no flavor?? The meatloaf looks like pig brains. I’m so sad I chose to spend my money on this in hopes of getting comfort food.
We ordered their full thanksgiving meal. It was delicious. There was so much food I think we could have fed 10+ comfortably. Everything was prepared perfectly, all we had to do was cook the Turkey and heat the sides. The Turkey was so juicy and delicious all the sides were amazing seasoned perfectly and delicious. We had some trouble with finding the instructions but the owner who was so kind got them to me in no time. Everything was literally perfect. I highly recommend getting the full thanksgiving dinner, you won’t regret it.
The food wasn't the same. The chicken wings were super small. My husband didn't even finish his meal. They only offered takeout. Now I have to cook my own soul food at home, he says. Haaa
I am on the Carnivore diet only eating mea, so I ordered just the meat without any sausages. The ribs were outstanding. The steak was very good as well. We went because there was supposed to be live music, but it had been canceled. Also note that they can not sit groups of more than 4 at one table. I would go back. Seems like a nice place, and the food was well worth it.
