First time visiting from Texas. The strawberry cake was awesome. The mustard greens were seasoned very well. The canned yams were tasty. We ordered baked chicken and cornbread dressing. The baked chicken was good; however, we were not fans of the cornbread dressing due to having too much sage. The food was not hot considering how long we waited. On another note, you get a lot for your money. We would visit this establishment again to try some other foods on the menu if we’re ever in the city.

Ordered the baked rib platter. Tasted fine, not blown away but was good. Atmosphere was a bit cramped and the AC seemed to not be working so was a little stuffy. Service was ok.

I went to this restaurant today and just new I was getting a good southern home cooked meal. The baked chicken taste like it was baked two days ago, the rice was hard, the yams and green beans were cold. I asked for turnip greens and not green beans. For the amount of money it should have at least been hot. Never returning

Ordered a seafood basket. The worker busted a bottle of hot sauce all on my shoes. Didn’t offer me nothing but a towel. And I just bought those shoes the day before. Onto of that, the fish was raw in the middle. Not going back.

Just tried this establishment, the food was cold seems to be reheated, salty, the restaurant was hot, food was inedible. Hospitality was great but to pay that much for food that you can’t eat. Take my advice go elsewhere.

Pleasant, unexpected surprise!! We stopped in early on a Saturday & everything was made fresh when we ordered. Or family tried the Gumbo, Fried Ribs & Catfish. Everything was delicious, owner was friendly, very informative & inviting. We will be back & we will check out his BBQ Food Truck w/Homemade Boudin as well.

I went to Rita and Joe’s Bar-b-que truck on Ryan Strett for the 1st time. I ordered a chicken meal. The chicken was burnt and hardly any of the chicken was edible. I was so disappointed.
