Kendall Karsen’s Upscale Soul Food

Me and My husband were pleasantly surprised with this restaurant. The food was all delicious! The rotisserie chicken was seasoned well and fell off the bone. The dressing tasted great. My husband had the grilled porkchop and it was thick cut, well seasoned, and he was able to cut it with a butter knife. He licked it up! The greens were seasoned very well and the cabbage and sweet potatoes were good. My hubby enjoyed the mac & cheese. The only thing missing was some good cold sweet tea. We highly recommend this place and give it 5 stars! We definitely will be going back to eat. The owner was friendly, the service was good and the food was reasonably priced. Had somewhat of a small dining area, but it was nice and clean and had a good vibe about it. Definitely upscale soulfood eating. Parking: Enough parking for the establishment location.

Chicken and dressing is okay.Mac and cheese is good...the cabbage was mushy with no flavor!!

So i have been complaining that theres no good food in Dallas since I have moved here from NY. Well I have finally found a spot that reminds me of home. The food here is absolutely delicious. I had the baked chicken...so juicy, well seasoned and fell right off the bone. The mac and cheese was delicious and light and the cabbage was very good. The place is very clean and the service was warm and welcoming. I wil definitely return at an earlier time since they close at 8pm so that i can truly enjoy the atmosphere. This restaurant is surely going to be very successful!

Not enough Stars to tell you how great this place is all around great place for food atmosphere and customer service very friendly people that works there

***HEADS UP FOR ANYONE COMING UP HERE MARCH 10TH - NO POT ROAST. I WAS SAD SO THOUGHT ID WARN ANYONE. This is my first time here. This place is called upscale but I am unsure of why. Nothing about this place is upscale. Hmmmm. So another heads up Very tiny place inside with maybe 4 or 5 tables with use of Styrofoam. Oki finally got my food. That otisserie Chicken was hitting with what I consider perfect collards and the cabbage was good too. My aunt got the chicken as well but with dressing she says it's good but could use a little more poultry seasoning for her liking. She said the yams are good but wishes for a little bit more sweetness and butter. She said the green beans and pecan pie were good too. So of course good food is subjective because taste buds vary. There's some people that could say they wish the cabbage was sweeter, whereas this cabbage isn't. Some people could say maybe they want more vinegar or peppers /more of a spicy flavor in their collards but overall I think it's a very good spot. We'll be back! No shade but still not sure where the upscale comes in at but maybe by having that in their name, they're manifesting for a nicer building. A MUCH larger nicer dining area with wait staff (cause we waited outside for 30min on our food) and a better neighborhood and no Styrofoam to go boxes. Service was good! Prices aren't even upscale which is great in these times. Ha!

Love this fairly new soul food spot. Give it a try, you'll enjoy it too!
