“LOVE the torta Nona. They said they needed more business and I've tried posting on social media/tagging them but don't respond/share/maximize the word of mouth. Hoping they find ways to draw in that business! We're missing out if we don't have them on this block! Only gave it four Stars for atmosphere because it's on a busy street and it's pretty difficult to cross either on foot or in a car.“
“Fixins is such a great family experience in the heart of DTLA. I love the ambience and environment, and the servers are very attentive. Having a soul food restaurant that is black owned in such a centrally diverse area is very impressive and speaks to how DTLA is continuing to grow. The food is good, the music is amazing, the service is fast, and it's just the perfect spot for a family filled evening. I would definitely recommend anyone to try it out.“
“Food is great! My first experience here was 4th of july 2023. I knew they would be busy, so i called hours ahead for my pick up order and when i got there it wasn't ready because my ticket was buried under other orders and was missed. So i had to wait additional time for my food, per why i ordered ahead. Smdh. And my portions was small!!Second time around, i wanted to try chicken but they were out. The guy that took my order seemed like he didnt want to be there, no smile, no greeting, just no customer service skills what so ever. Food came out fast, bigger portions this time. Just dont know why both times bbq sauce was in my greens, i dont like that.“
“The food is great, a vegan take on soul food, but the wait is ridiculous. I've ordered many times hoping the wait improves, and as of current it hasn't. They open at 6pm and for me that is already late to have a meal, but worse I end up getting my order at least 1 1/2 to 2 hrs. after the designated pickup time. I truly hope the best, but I just can't roll with this.“
“The ambiance of this establishment is truly unique in the Los Angeles area. The tropical atmosphere is aesthetically pleasing and the cocktails are expertly crafted. Regrettably, the menu options are rather limited as several items are no longer offered so feels more like bar food than a full dinner menu. Nevertheless, the exceptional service provided by the staff is commendable. I highly recommend this venue for pre-dinner drinks with colleagues or for a casual evening out.“
“I went for lunch with a friend during the week. It was near the holidays, so pretty empty. There was one guy working the tables and the service was fine (he was friendly but took his time to come over).They definitely give you large portions, which I was happy about. I had the jambalaya and my friend ordered the salmon croquettes. Both were seasoned well and the accompanying corn bread was delicious. The only reason I'm giving four stars instead of five is because the chicken in my jambalaya had a slightly rubbery, processed taste/texture. Maybe I had a bad batch but to have such an important ingredient not work left me slightly disappointed.But I still enjoyed myself enough that I would go back again. I'd just have a different dish.“
“We have gone to pretty much all Crab Shack locations in the local area, my daughter wanted crab shack and we stoped by since we were closest to this location. I have to say the food here was delicious!! We ordered a special they have 2 pounds of shrimp and 1 pound of muscles, mild crab shack style. The shrimp were cooked perfectly they were plump not over cooked and were easy to peel. The Waitress we had when we ordered was ok she took our order but whenever we needed anything she was no where to be found. It's not like it was busy there was only one other table occupied. Mid way through our meal she either went home or went on break cause we never saw her again which was fine cause the second waitress was readily available and checked on us a few times. The only thing about this place that we didn't like is the booths they're super uncomfortable, the cushion on them was very thin and you could feel the wood planks underneath. They also weren't bolted down so they were moving a bit, oh and the table height to the booth seats was alittle awkward too. Maybe next time we will sit at a table with chairs“
“This is not the first time I’ve been to this place, but I will say every time I come to this restaurant I am greeted with great service and great food. I would definitely recommend anyone who is looking for a great meal it’s a family oriented location, and great service. I just love this place.“
“I specialize in the renovation of kitchens, but this is Grandmas country kitchen 2.0. Both a local market and an incredibly good southern inspired restaurant, be prepared to be warmed by the good spirit of true comfort food and energy of the old days... when food took time but every1 chatted away... It was my first time here, so I didn't get a chance to really experiment on food (chicken sausage, eggs, and pancakes), but it was pleasant. Good prices and a local spot you should not miss.“
“Her food is really good I enjoy her cooking.Her establishments is very put together thoughtful of how she wants it to look, very home style warm friendly, her assistants are very professional like and courteous, you can order and wait a little because she has a whole lot goings on but you will be satisfied on your dollar and you will be coming back Okay I said it home from home really good cook.“
“After ordering I came to check on the reviews and I must say that some people are very bored in life because all of the negative reviews didn’t match their character! Such a friendly young duo with the gift for amazing food, because this was the best soul food I’ve had ever since visiting LA. Just fire food and for those complaining about their attitude lol it’s very obviously stated how to order food and before walking in, maybe call and check if reading is to hard. Sincerely no disappointment over here!! Know you have yourselves and overseas customer and whenever I am in town my money surely goes to you !!!!“
“Lee's Market in Watts, California, serves up an unforgettable fried chicken experience. The use of fresh grease gives the chicken a crispy exterior and tender interior. Expertly seasoned, the flavors are well-balanced, catering to various preferences. The local charm adds to the overall dining ambiance. In short, Lee's Market is a must-visit for those craving delicious, perfectly fried chicken. Highly recommended! 01/22/22“
“A great, classic style Jewish deli with easy parking in a convenient location. Everything is fresh and delicious. But what I love is how unlike a lot of similar places, the sandwiches aren't enormous. You can easily finish one of these sandwiches for lunch without feeling like you are going to explode.“
“We had the turkey, dressing, greens, Mac n cheese, yams, and chicken. The food was a solid 4.8.The greens do not have any meat and as flavorful, but I wish they were a little more seasoned. The dressing was very well flavored, but I wish it was a little less smooth.We arrived just as the restaurant was closing but the food was still really good. The husband and wife team were also very friendly! We will be going back the next time we’re in the area. ?“
“So, I decided to give this spot another try since the food was good first time. This time I opted to call at 530pm.... Google says open until 9pm. She said "We are closed! "Wtf it's 530! She said ok, I will take your order ...I said well I am driving 40 min away...she said okay! How sweet.., I asked for 1 oxtail dinner and 1smothered steak. Asked for yams and greens and mac and cheese. I got 3 sides Mac and greens only. Still grateful to, because I told her I only had some of the cash and she said it's ok and kindly sent me home! Main issue I have is ....I didn't get ANY gravy at all I had a comfort food craving and that entails lots of smothered gravy. I had to come home and make some gravy. I believe they have new owners because the name changed to Sol of Los Angeles. There is a buffet in Gardena...it's written on the wall!****Owners ****please update the hours on line ,I drove really far and they were closing hours earlier. I included a screenshot of the information given. I just tried the smothered steak I used to love and this one today is dry, unflavored and hard with no gravy. Oxtails we're very small and minimal, no gravy and overpriced for the value. Both these items total close to $40....“
“Best BBQ hands down! I have been getting my Que for over 3 years now. So much they know me by name and my order. I'm a no sauce person and a lot of places can't deliver that "wow" effect when it comes to seasoning. But Rowes seasonings is to perfection. All the sides are fire, my favorite is the potato salad. Plates are well portioned, for a great price. And we ain't gonna talk about the Peach Cobbler??. Gotta get there early tho, because by 3 or 4 some food can be sold, that's just how good it is. No cap, I have business I do bi weekly in the area and I never leave without going thru and grabbing a plate. Keep bringing that ? Que Rowe I'm a customer for life!!!“
“We found this gem when we were in DTLA to see the afternoon showing of Alvin Ailey. It was raining and windy so our options for walking around to look for a place were thwarted. We passed the tent for this place and decided to give it a try. Initially it was more out of convenience as it had great warm heaters and was within steps of the place where the show was. To our pleasant surprise the food and service were incredible. They apparently change chefs every so often and we were lucky enough to enjoy Chef John Cleveland's dishes all which were excellent.The menu is small but perfect. Our waiter AKIL was fabulous! Super knowledgeable about food allergies (I am allergic to dairy and wheat) and so gracious. When we arrive he asked us: 1- if we were going to see a show so he could ensure we were out in time, and 2- if anyone had allergies. I told him about mine and he went to the kitchen and came back with a list of all of the dishes that I would be able to eat. How fabulous is that?I ordered the Crab and Asparagus, my husband had the Angus beef short ribs and our son had Mary's chicken. Everything was presented beautifully and delicious. I drink RYZE coffee and brought it with me, and Akil was kind enough to bring hot water and oat milk for us. If you are going to see a show, or in the area, this is definitely worth visiting.Dietary restrictions: I am allergic to dairy and wheat and our waiter AKIL went to the kitchen and came back with a list of all of the dishes that I could order! They can definitely accommodate! They also gave me oat milk for my coffee.“
“Passed by this place soo many times and decided to stop one day. Glad I did. I have a go-to black owned and affordable spot to get a good handmade fresh burger. Under $10, cant beat that and its definitely better than any regular burger stand with thin frozen patties. Thank ya Magic Fingers!!!“
“Was my first time I have been hearing it on the radio KJLH I passed by it . It was really good because I usually go to LA to get my barbecue all I got was delicious ? rib tips, greens, barbecue baked beans, bread ? off the hook. I have too go back too try the Rest.“
“I gave it a 4 star only because I miss the SLUSHES!!!! ??PLEASE bring them back. Other than that I LOVE ❤️ the food. Customer service is Awesome and the wait time is never long. Continue to keep preparing great food ? PLEASE BRING THE SLUSHES BACK ?“
“Great alternative when you dont want to wait 3+hrs for The Boiling Crab , delicious food and great prices. My only issue would be that the host clustered all of the guests on one side of the restaurant and when i respectfully requested a booth instead of a table in-between two other familys she seems annoyed. Beside that the rest of the staff was nice and attentive.“
“We live a block away passed by many times telling ourselves we should try that place, omg! It’s totally awesome! Starting from Shae the sweet waitress she was so kind and lovely and she spoiled us from the moment we entered the restaurant. Then the cook who’s the owner, they kept sending us samples from their home made savory food. Shae, we loved your attention we are coming back for sure many times! Don’t judge the place by it’s looks it’s a 40 year old place! I could give more stars if I could. Wanna post photos but I DK why Google won’t let me though.“
