The Seasoning King

Noe Hayes

The Seasoning King is an absolute gem in Akron! 🌟 The ambiance is casual and welcoming, making it perfect for a relaxed solo lunch or a cozy dinner with friends.

I tried the fried catfish which was crispy on the outside and tender inside - definitely comfort food at its finest! The collard greens on the side were perfectly seasoned and full of flavor.

The staff was friendly, and I appreciated their LGBTQ+ friendly vibe. Plus, the free parking was a bonus! Can't wait to come back for more delicious soul food! 🍽️

I decided to visit this establishment for the first time after my appointment because I had a strong desire for some fish.
The proprietor was very friendly and courteous, taking the time to answer any inquiries I had.
I placed an order for the Perch dinner and added two chicken wings, and everything was prepared fresh.
Upon arriving home and sampling the food, I was thoroughly impressed with its quality.
The chicken and fish were cooked to perfection, evoking a sense of nostalgia for my grandmother's cooking.
I intend to return in the future to explore additional menu items.
I highly recommend giving this establishment a try.

Random Google search led me here on a drive through town...
owner was extremely friendly and we chatted about food I make as well as prices...
these prices are unmatched for the quantity AND quality of food recieved.
You qill not come close anywhere on the portion sizes per price....
the ribs are tender and juicy with a great smokey flavor...
the sauce has a great acidic kick that brings the cook on the ribs and the sauce flavor together...
this reminds me of Louisiana bbq I've had on past travel and that was the best bbq I've had and this is close...
Mac and cheese as well as collard greens are well seasoned and amazing...
will definitely be back weekly
