My husband and I wanted to try a new place instead of going to our regular spots.
We searched for food near me in Google maps and this place came up.
The restaurant was empty which made me leery but my husband suggested we give it a shot anyways.
I'm glad we stayed!! The gentleman working were all kind and the cook did fabulous on our meal! My husband ordered the fried catfish basket with fried okra and hush puppies.
He said it was perfectly battered and seasoned and the okra was on point! I had the pulled pork po-boy with onions peppers and mushrooms.
The flavor was sweet from the drizzled BBQ sauce and the fries complimented it with just enough salt vs sweet.
We'll definitely be back!

The hushpuppies and trinity greens were ok. The ribs were terrible not sure what's going on there, seems like they were boiled, very tough .
Id rather have a mc rib sandwich .The pulled pork not good, tasted old.
The brisket was mostly a fat mess.
These were the worst Mac and cheese I've ever had, they weren't fresh.
Nothing was fresh. Very disappointed.
Can't belive some has such a lack of respect to serve this platter to somebody.
Probably the worst BBQ I've ever had. Update .I got a different Mac and cheese that was much better.

This was one of my last stops while on my trip in Portland.
I realized I went to a bunch of restaurants but didn’t patron a Black Owned.
The reviews were promising.
However, once there some food items weren’t available like their sweet potatoes.
I ordered fried cat fish with fries and cornbread( I received an extra one which I am assuming was because they ran out of the side I wanted) which was kind of the waitress.
However, I was disappointed in both the catfish and cornbread.
The catfish was fried to perfection but lacking flavor and the cornbread was dry and bland.
