Lenes Southern Cooking Ii

Today was my first visit to this spot the customer service and friendliness was excellent. I tried several items. Out of everything I ordered I like the baked turkey wings and sauteed squash. I didn't like the peach cobbler it was watery. The food was okay. The menu has a huge selection and vegetarian options are available. I may go another day and try a few more vegetables.

Pulled up a little after 6 .. there was no line.. presentation wasn’t looking so good. I decided on just a veggie plate with double Mac green beans and cornbread muffin. The Mac was to my liking but not my husbands as he like a more garlic taste to his Mac I like a more plain with not too much sauce nor cheese. The green beans was at least favorite and honestly I don’t think I’ll ever order them again from there. They were very tough. The cornbread muffin now was theeeeee BOMB.com .. it was sweet and moist I wish I would have ordered 2 additional. The server Miss Joyce she was friendly and thanked me numerous of times for leaving a tip. It was genuine and honestly I wish I would have left more. I’ll give them another try but when it’s earlier in the day when things are probably more fresh.

So we’ve been twice, and I’m ready to write a review. The food at Collard Green Café is delicious! Absolutely delicious. I’ve had both the smoked wings and the short ribs with sides and both times the dishes have been absolutely amazing. On my first visit the cashier was not friendly or helpful at all. Almost rude. But the food was good so we came back. The second visit was much better with the cashier being super friendly and helpful. And again, the food is DELICIOUS and you get massive portions. We learned after the first visit, we could split one plate. They give you generous portions and that’s all you can ask for. We’ll definitely be going back often.

This was my first time ordering food from CGC! And I am dissatisfied. The My Mac and cheese I rate 2/10 it had no seasoning I had to add salt and pepper, the crust was so hard I thought I was going to chip my tooth!! The collards I rate a STRONG 3/10 I just ended up pouring hot sauce all over so I can eat a few bites I don’t any complaints about the Chicken though! The chicken wings are pretty good here !!

After reading reviews, I was on the fence about trying this restaurant, but I'm glad I gave them a try. The food is seasoned well without being too salty, which is usually the case for many soul food places. My 2 pork chops were cooked just right, not dry at all. The veggies were good too. I was in and out in no time with my order. Great customer service, just speak loud and clear for the sweet lady preparing your meal.

Food overcooked! Greens taste like the canned Glory greens! I threw those away! Veggies weren't over seasoned which was fine for me because I have to cook without salt. This may not be good for someone looking for food to be well seasoned. It was my first visit. I might try again because maybe they had a bad day.

This was my 1st visit. The health score was 92 as I look for this before I eat. I ordered the catfish and grits which is on their daily menu. The catfish was cooked to order is was seaned well. My issues were the grits had no seasoning and the plating of the dish. My opinion the grits would have been better served in a bowl, but I do understand cost issues in our current climate.

Great customer service, very friendly. But the food. No. I'm from Geogia and this is food is not a good representation. Mashed potatoes were straight out the box (just add water). Collard greens tasted dirty and unwashed. Turkey wing was cooked at least a day or 2 ago, skin was so hard and dry it broke the fork they gave me. I get the vibes this place is owned by people who do NOT look like the folks working there. If you are going to profit off Black culture at least stick to true recipes.
