I really liked the side dishes here. The Mac&Cheese, Black Eyed Peas and Greens were my favorites. The chicken was cut differently than any place I've tried around the country, but the batter and flavor was classic southern food.

This food is the best most freshest best tasting in the world. I got the vegetable platter. It came with collard greens, sweet potatoes, mac & cheese, cabbage, green means, rice, Black Eyed Peas, red beans, and then I got a side of smothered steak, breaded steak it was the best I’ve ever had hats off to this place. They’ve been here for a long time and they really know what they’re doing. I would highly recommend it. Do you know how to do it right it is the best soul food ever.

Excellent first time experience; amazing good food and service! Have wanted to try Mrs. Whites chicken for a long time. Stars finally aligned last night. Was able to come in just before 6pm on a Tuesday. Greeted like family, treated like old friends by our server, and fed like of grandma cooked it. Best food we have had in a long time. Thank you very much! Not a single thing I wouldn't order again. All great! Highly recommend! Sock it to me cake recommended, tried (not shown) was amazing!

I took a couple of friends here for lunch yesterday for their first time and they loved it. The food was fresh hot and delicious. And the portions were large. Our waiter was very nice and efficient. The best soul food restaurant in Phoenix.

Stopped in here during the November Nights festival because it smelled good walking past.

Lemme tell you, this is HANDS DOWN the best soul food spot I’ve eaten at in Phoenix, and I LLLOOVVEEEE me some soul food. I had the 3 Peice with cabbage and green beans, and my husband had the 3 piece with Yams and Mac. When I tell you this sh*t was fire, I am NOT kidding. I NEVER clear my plate but both my husband and myself left no crumbs on those plates! I highly recommend you check this place out. We will definitely be back to try some more off their menu!! Also our server was Regina and she was so sweet, not just to us but everyone else in the place too! 10/10, do yourself a favor and come eat here. The last photo is my husband literally scraping his bowl of yams clean lol. They were out of cornbread so get in earlier in the day/early evening if you want the good stuff too!

Talk about walking into a place that time forgot You can feel the history in your bones. This quaint lil hidden treasure is a must GO

I ordered catfish with greens and macaroni and cheese. The greens were legit and the macaroni and cheese was good too! The catfish came out piping hot so that was nice (taste good too). I also ordered some peach cobbler which did not disappoint. I was hoping to try the red velvet but they didn't have any. I'm glad I finally made it here because I've been wanting to try this place for a minute now. The only negative thing I have to say is that they seriously need to upgrade their upholstery.

Been around since 1964? Oh yeah. They have it figured out. Best mac n cheese I have ever tasted. The mixed greens are on point. When they tell you they're known for their fried chicken, believe it! Even the liver and onions were amazing. Everything was great! The only negative, to some people, would be that it can take a little time to get your food. That shouldn't be a negative. That tells you it's made to order and made from scratch!
