Food and service was great.

Food was great but for it to be my first time I thought for the money you got your money’s worth and the atmosphere was great the service was good a little bit of a wait on my plate when everybody got there food before me after waiting 20 -25 minutes

so good

EVERYTHING WAS ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL

We ordered the smothered turkey wings with 3 Mac and cheese, rice and peas (red beans). A mini corn bread was also included. There is flavor in every bite. It may be considered pricey for some but this is quality home cooking. The servings are enough for two separate meals. The turkey wings is well seasoned and the meat literally falls off the bone. We ordered take out so the gravy was served on the side. The gravy is seasoned just right and has a little kick to its flavor. Once smothered over the turkey, the seasonings are compatible and its a delicious bite in every mouthful. The mac and cheese was a traditional baked mac and cheese. The mini corn bread was moist and had a tinge of sweetness. The winner and could be considered a meal in itself, the rice w/ peas (red beans). Its flavor packed with what taste like jerk seasoning. The rice was cooked perfectly and the beans were not overcooked. We tried the smothered turkey wings over our own plain white rice and as mentioned, the servings are enough for two.

Really good food, outstanding service, and a really welcoming enviornment. I would recommend in heartbeat. If I am ever back in the Birmhingham area, I would go back, no questions.

Visiting from out of town and a local recommended. Food was amazing- definitely homemade. The next time I visit I’m definitely coming back. Mac and cheese was 10/10. Cabbage 10/10
