I ordered the tilapia dinner combo with sweet potatoes, Mac and cheese and spicy greens.Tilapia lack flavor, sweet potatoes were good, Mac and cheese was not flavorful and it was missing some cheese and the spicy greens were spicy at all more like salty. The cornbread was good.After eating I feel nauseous but maybe it’s in my head.

This is a wonderful restaurant in all aspects. The food is always on point; seasoned well and the portions are big. Moreover the lady taking my order was amazing. Friendly and engaging and a beautiful smile. She made me feel so welcome. I’m sorry I didn’t get her name. She is the best example of what customer service should be.

I order from here quite often whenever I'm in the area, and out of the many times I order from here, I believe I had an issue maybe once. You just don't get this much food for the money and the food is good!

The food was good, but my lord, yall need to use like 1/3 the salt. I’ve never had anything saltier at a restaurant than this before in my life ? The greens were inedible because of it.

I have purchased from them a few times and had no problems for order large order items. I ordered a half pan of Mac n Cheese at 1:15 in afternoon. I paid 45$ - 48 dollars total. It was 1:15 pm in afternoon. I told them I’d come back at 6:00 pm. That’s 4 hours and 45 mins to cook a half of pan of Mac n cheese. I come back at 6:00. The lady tells me it is not done and is still cooking it’ll be another 15-20 mins. I said ok. I sit in car. I’m getting ready to go in after 15 mins - the man comes out to car. I said no I’ll come in he says no it’s hot. I really wanted to go in to look at it before taking it home. I say this to consumer because if you have paid - look at your food before you go home even if they put it in your car for you. He puts it in car. I drive the hour home. I get the pan in the house for party. Everyone including myself see once the foil is pulled back —- it’s burnt and hard and sticking to the pan. So I say to the consumer look at the food before you pull off. I have 48 dollars of Mac and cheese that is burnt - I live an hour away. I drove all the way up there because they are usually are on point. Now I feel I got gipt

Ordered Mac-n-cheese, yams, and green beans as side dishes for Thanksgiving. Everyone agreed, the food was amazing! The Mac-n-cheese, although the pan was only a bit more than half filled, was flavorful with a bit of a tang. The yams weren’t too sweet and the green beans had the right amount of seasoning and potatoes! Will definitely be ordering side dishes from Dada’s again!

Got the fried chicken with the yams and Mac and cheese, also got a side of spicy greens. Fire. The yams were my personal favorite, soft and sweet but not too sweet. Get one of their lemonades too to drink while u eat, we got the strawberry kiwi and strawberry lemonades. I would've posted a pic but we devoured it within minutes.

My first time eating from here and I will be back. The customer service was good. The cashier was cool. She recommend me some of their best sides (Mac & cheese, sweet potatoes, dressing). The fried chicken was cooked fresh but not rushed. It was moist and tender on the inside and crunchy on the outside. They have real mild sauce! The portion size is filling. I got three meals but only took one picture before my family started eating. (Not pictured) baked chicken, collard greens, and red beans.
