This food is so good, she makes a different meal daily and today I walked into ox tails rice and beans, Mac and cheese, greens, cornbread, she had chocolate cake for desert and ice cream. Also a kool aid. I enjoyed this meal so much I can't wait to tell my mama about it lol. It was like a Sunday visit to Grandma's house for dinner. 5 stars all the way, my only thing is the cornbread should have some honey and butter added but regardless of that I still give her food 5 stars, it was so much delicious flavor in those oxtail rice n beans, and that Mac 😋 I want her to bring this to my family function.

AMAZING seafood boil!! I live right around the corner and have been wanting to try for a long time and am so happy I finally did! My husband is from the south so we crave that creole style food once in a while and Ms. Felicia did not disappoint. The food was seasoned perfectly. Every other restaurant that offers this style seafood boil can step aside because there is no competition!

The food was amazing and Felecia is very friendly and doesn't mind having a conversation or two with you. Felecia went out of her way to make me the crab boil. She can also make meals if you do not eat pork or beef just let her know upon ordering.

Ms Felecia is Amazing! The Tuesday oxtail dinner is incredible! The meat is so tender it slides off the bones, the collard greens are great, the Mac and cheese is fantastic, the cornbread is so flavorful, the cake is moist and delicious and idk what is in her Kool Aid...but it's divine! The portions are super generous and everything is seasoned perfectly! Edit: the single meal served 3 meals. I had the sea food boil today, and Miss Felecia hit it out of the park AGAIN! The shrimp, crab, and corn are so flavorful! My husband couldn't handle the spice, so I get it all to myself! Oh! And the potatoes hidden at the bottom! My gawd! I'm looking forward to having the rest tomorrow!
