Detroit Soul

I purchased a fried pork chop dinner with sides of macaroni and cheese, collard greens and yams. When I placed the order, I asked that the pork chops be fried hard. See the photo. The pork chops are swimming in oil & are NOT cooked through. I’m not sure what cheeses were used for this macaroni. It’s bland. The yams are stringy. The greens are just OK. I don’t understand how you have your children at your business running around the lobby. I just wasted $24.37. I’m saddened that I had not only wasted my money but my time. I will not be back.

Will be a nice place once construction is complete. There was one table we were able to sit at to eat which was nice as we drove a long way to try it out. Fried chops were very good as was the catfish! We will be back to try different items.

I stop getting food there after they open their other location on Jefferson because the taste was totally different than before , I ordered Baked Chicken with white rice with gravy and cabbage the first RED FLAG was no Corn Muffins for the cabbage and the second RED FLAG was no seasoning or Love in the food! I’M GOOD That Was It.

The food has absolutely no soul or love in it. Greens taste like they just boiled them without seasoning or meat very bland. Yams were nots sweet at all, I didn’t taste any sugar or butter. Fried chicken had a very bad burnt taste to them. My daughter love fried chicken she wouldn’t even eat it. Corn bread tasted undercooked. The dressing and peach cobbler were the only two things that were good.
I expected better especially since they were on the news and with 4 star ratings (I don’t know how).
Needless to say the trash can ate the food and not us.
Waste of money.

The food was okay, but I was expecting better given some of the reviews. It’s not as flavorful as grandma’s down home southern soul food. I did appreciate that they seemed to have healthful soul food in mind, which is displayed in their dishes. What I didn’t like was the automatic 20% tip being added to my bill. That was a turn-off. I believe in tips but let me decide how much I wanted to tip. I would have tipped the waitress 18%. She had a great personality but she wasn’t as attentive as we needed her to be. Overall, the place was okay but it’s not a place I would be quick to run back to.

The Food was Very, very, very good. I wish we had a soul food place like this in Columbus. I had the Perch, Greens with Turkey Meat, and homemade Dressing. The Service was on point also. We sat down and ate. I will diffently be back. ❤

I just ordered two dinner from this place and my baked chicken and the meatloaf was raw.. tasteless.. horrible food.. update.:I tried calling this restaurant and was put on hold at the 30 minute mark I hung up..I really feel messed up that this business would show up on a news show talking like they were about their business to only do this ..they need to change their name to Detroit s worse soul food
