    I just attempted to order through Uber Eats, I received a message that says, "sold out", so I called, the man answers hello Dan's, I said hello, he proceeds to say, I can't hear you over and over. I called 2 add'l times, the same. I then called from my home phone and a different man answers and says, " I can't hear you" so I'm assuming this is the unprofessional game they play in the evening. So now, my 85 year old Father does NOT get his food because of the childish games

    Sorry.. But this soul restaurant needs some more soul. In other words. They should improve on the foods preparation. My experience was not the best. Food was cold and the portions were very small.. for the price.

    I didn't get to order anything. Guy behind the counter was more interested in explaining to the FedEx delivery man that he wouldn't allow his license to be scanned by anyone outside the government than assisting me. With that, I waited. FedEx man left after the delivery and for whatever reason .... * I was not greeted * I was not offered any Intel * I was not asked for my order. It was lunch time and I was the only person besides the guy behind the plexi glass and the FedEx man walked in with me. I was told where to go (like which window/side of the door for service) and nothing else. I abhor writing reviews like this as I enjoy promoting great local places. Maybe it was a true fluke but the menu has tape over all pricing. Figuring the market instability makes this so but again .. I'm speculating as I don't know.

    Food was horrible! I ordered the pot roast, dressing, greens, and red beans and rice. Everything was cold! The beans and rice were hard, the pot roast was tough, and the dressing just wasn’t good. I do not recommend this place.
