Best GF fried chicken ever, and tested safe using Nima sensor. Oxtail tacos were also terrific and tested safe. WARNING: they randomly sometimes aren’t open and placing online orders for delivery fails all the time. The last two times I ordered for delivery the order failed after I waited like 2+ hours. Food is great but they don’t run their establishment well in my experience

One of my go to dinner places! I always get the bbq fried chicken and greens. All of their sides are gf and they have desserts from a local baker. Not all desserts are gf but if you’re lucky get the blueberry pound slice!

I had the bbq fried chicken. It was delicious and crispy. We also had the Mac and cheese and grits. I was the only celiac in our party today, but everyone enjoyed. Great service too!

They were very patient as I had to call multiple times on a Su day afternoon to a.) clarify what was Celiac safe and b.) what was actually available on Sunday (their website only had their regular Menu but come to find out on Sunday they only have their brunch menu available and at 2:30 they had sold out of multiple things). We ordered BBQ fried chicken (celiac safe, delish), fried green tomatoes (celiac safe, very bland), seeet potato hash (celiac safe, good), cherry grits (celiac safe, liked by those that could have dairy), fried chicken club (NOT celiac safe, good), Belgian waffle (NOT celiac safe, good), marble pound cake (celiac safe, good), peach cobbler (celiac Safe and vegan, good but I realized I’m not a cobbler fan). Where they could have done better with our take out order- not forgotten a side of grits and given us maple syrup for the waffles (both could have been prevented if my hubby had checked the order like I asked him to). Alas, I would go back and try to eat there so my food was hot not cold as take out.

Amazingg. I felt very comfortable and confident in their handling of my food. The staff was kind and welcoming

I was assured that gluten free food was prepped separately and they took great care in doing this. I was able to order almost everything on the menu including fried bbq chicken and the gries! Grit fries. Yes. You have to try them.

The food was delicious, best meal I had in LA. I appreciate the dedication and safety in preparing my food and will be back!

Super amazing soul food with lots of gluten free options. I got the fried chicken Caesar salad and it was delicious. It's not quite the same crunch on the breading as real gluten of course but it was excellent and served with a tasty BBQ sauce.

They have pretty good prices and a few GF dessert choices too.

Also vegan/ dairy free friendly! Definitely recommend if you're in the area.

BEST GF fried chicken. BEST GF mac and cheese. BEST GF shrimp and grits. ALL sides are GF AND super delicious. If I lived much closer to this place I would weigh 500 pounds. This place is just too good to be missed, and you deserve to treat yourself! (And MTC most certainly deserves lots and lots of business, and some big fat tips for offering GF soul food so right!)

The food was fairly good, however none of the sides that come with the meals are marked on the menu as being GF. The employee at the counter told me that only the items marked as GF are GF. Since none of the sides were marked as GF, I did not feel comfortable eating the sides that come with the fried chicken that I ordered.

I would have give 5 stars if the menu had indicated which, if any, of the side items are GF.

We drove an hour each way to come here because I can't eat gluten and have been craving fried chicken. The gluten free fried chicken is amazing and the gluten free mac n cheese is one of the best I have ever had...even when I could eat gluten. I had the greens and the sweet potato crumble and those were yummy as well. Hubby had the meatloaf burger not gf and said it was awesome. The desserts look amazing. They have 2 gluten free desserts and we opted for the gluten free vegan cobbler. It was decent. We will definately be back.

Gluten free soul food? You got it. They actually have a GF fried chix sandwich. Haven't seen that on a menu before. Many sides are GF as is the Mac n Cheese. There are good options in the menu and if you tell them you have Celiac the chef said she would fry things separately - though since her batter is GF I'm not sure what would be in the fryer typically that would cross contaminate. Nonetheless, her mentioning this gave me comfort she was hip to the needs of a Celiac In search of some local, organic, GF soul food. An unsuspecting gem of a restaurant - owner operator, cozy, neighborhood spot worth supporting.
