I gave my daughter a 30th birthday dinner tj’s and it was amazing from the food to the planning and decorations, I did not have to worry, Tia listened to everything I wanted and she came through. My guest left happy and full and the birthday girl had a a wonderful time.

Very cozy little restaurant, nice decor, great location and very sweet waitress Lina!! Mac&cheese and potato salad where good and so was the cornbread, nothing great but good. The chicken wasn’t fresh and the flounder had great seasoning but was old and fishy. We barely ate anything and had to go somewhere else and pay more money, but this time we went for a sure thing where food quality is more important than saving a dollar. They should do a better job ordering so the quality of the ingredients they are using don’t spoil or near spoil. Sometimes u get a bad dish and u give another try because it just might not be the right dish for you, but if there is a question about the quality of ingredients then it doesn’t matter what I order unless it’s fried which hides aged foods. Will not eat here again which is unfortunate because I was really excited for great southern food.

Amazingly Delicious! If you haven't gone please do yourself a favor and go!!! Went for the first time today and I will definitely be back. It's like you're sitting at your Grandma's table having some good southern soul food! I ate EVERYTHING on my plate and if you get rice get the gravy! Best Half & Half around 95N! ?

Great Food, Great Service, and Great Prices. My first time today so I ordered a ton of food to sample and it was all delicious. I got the fish and grits, meatloaf, beef short rib, and smothered pork chops. For sides, I got mashed potatoes, collared greens, and potato salad. I highly recommend all and I can't wait to try the rest of the menu especially the fried chicken. Support this local business. The owners and folks working today were all so nice! Love this place and I will be back soon and often!

Ordered via doordash... Everything was surprisingly still warm and tasty. My fried porkchop wasn't soggy. String beans are a little bland but the sweet potato/yams are delish. The pork chops was also very tasty and not over cooked. I asked for gravy on the side and got a very small about. Barely enough for 1 of my chops. Buy still tasty nonetheless

The breakfast was delicious. I got the fried fish with grits and the fish was nicely fried. The grits was tasty and the portion was ample.

The food was amazing. It was hot and fresh. The complimentary corn bread with the smooth butter was nice to have while we waited for the main course. This place is a true gem. If you're looking for delicious comfort food I strongly recommend this place.

I went for dinner and the food was very good. The portions were huge and the prices low. The atmosphere was pleasant and inviting. The waitress/cashier was extremely nice. I definitely recommend this place. When I'm back in the area in 2 weeks, I'm going back for breakfast.

I went here couple years ago when they first open ordered yams and collards for my Thanksgiving dinner at my house the pan they gave me was a big pan but didn't fill the entire pan. Next time I visited I ordered fish and the smell of the fish was terrible I couldn't even eat it. Wasted my money. Some of there sides are good though.

The food was delicious. Everything on my plate was Southern soul food at its best. From the catfish to the collard greens to the macaroni and cheese and cornbread...out of this world. Everything was fresh and not greasy. I would definitely recommend this restaurant and I will definitely visit again. This restaurant is superior to the other soul food restaurants in the area.
