I passed up multiple places to get to this restaurant. I heard great things, and they did not disappoint. I had the henny glaze turkey leg with macaroni and greens, cornbread dressing, sweet potatoes, and banana pudding. The food was great! I'm still eating it the third day. They provide a nice, sharable portion of food. I also want to note that the restaurant closed at 8pm but still accommodated orders past that time. Great service.

I’m in LOVE with Simply Shae Soul Cafe. I always order the catfish, Mac&cheese, and greens. The food is seasoned so good, it’s fresh, crispy and juicy. I want to try more things on the menu but the catfish has me in a choke hold. This is the type of food i love to eat. Shae, i love you baby!!!! I keep telling all of my coworkers about this place and they love it too. I made one of my coworkers try it and she slid down the wall like she was in a R&B music video and then she immediately ordered a plate. The plates come loaded with such great portions. I’m so excited to try more food off the menu. Such great food. I can keep going with this review but i need to put an order in. Thank you Shae!!!!

They are so delicious! Food is always on point. Seasoned well and fresh. Call ahead for faster pickup... I just don't know why they keep switching containers because depending on if I get black Carry out box or styrophone one it seems like portion changes.
