While traveling through Waco, my sister and I wanted to try some local soul food and decided to stop at Jess’s Soul Food—and we’re so glad we did! I ordered the oxtails with greens, sweet potatoes, and cornbread. The oxtails were tender, flavorful, and meaty—some of the best I’ve had in a long time. The cornbread was delicious too! My sister had the fried hot link basket, and the empty plate said it all. The peach cobbler was just okay but everything else was great. The owner was friendly, and the menu offered plenty of great choices. If you’re looking for authentic, delicious soul food in Waco, this is definitely the place to go!

Nice soul food spot in Waco. I’ve been 3 different times and the owners are great, but their workers aren’t always the most helpful. We enjoy the food, so I’ll keep supporting this black owned business.

It looks small from the outside, but there are plenty of places to sit and eat inside. The employees are professional and courteous. The atmosphere is great for everyone, even a Longhorn fan like me and my family. The food is great and well portions.

Don’t miss out on this spot. Decided to stop in and try some home made goodness. Wow! When we seen our plates we were already impressed. Big servings, Fresh, Hot, Mouth Watering & Delicious. The Chicken Fried Steak was tender, juicy, crisp and just enough gravy. The Mac and cheese was cheesy and delicious. I had the cabbage and greens mix for my veg and it was so fresh and tasty without being overcooked. The pork chops were well seasoned, tender and crispy. I also opted for the basket of short ribs which were crispy and tender, very good bite. The fries were crisp and fresh served with 2 pieces of crisp buttery toast. The service was nice, fast as well as a nice cozy atmosphere. I thoroughly enjoyed my meal as well as my wife. We will be back. We have to try the rest of the menu

I had heard about this place, so I thought I would give it a try. I ordered the fried catfish with two sides, which included a mixture of collard greens and cabbage, candied yams, and cornbread. All of this cost over $20. Hmm… not too bad. But when I got my food, I was not impressed. The only item that was hot was the catfish. The collard greens and candied yams were barely lukewarm. The greens were filled with an annoyingly amount of stalks. I had hopes that the greens would be bursting with flavor and the “pot liquor” would be savory and delicious. It was not. The yams were mildly sweet but had no depth in flavor or spices, and they definitely were not “candied.” The cornbread was dry and not moist. I’m used to buttered cornbread that’s moist and braised in butter and honey. It all tasted flat.
For dessert, I chose the peach cobbler, and again, I was not impressed. It was heavily filled with more dough crust than peaches. It lacked spices and the buttery rich syrup I’m accustomed to. So, I wouldn’t recommend it. I also sampled a piece of their oxtail because I was curious to know what it tasted like. The piece I got had very little meat on it, and it didn’t taste like it was seasoned at all. There was an unpleasant gelatinous ring around the meat and bone, and I didn’t want to continue eating it. If I were to grade the food at this restaurant, it would get a disappointing C- at best.

If you’re looking for a down-to-earth atmosphere, some truly amazing and authentic soul food and exceptional customer service paired with amazing personalities amongst every single staff member. Then you have found the right spot my friend! Feels like you’re eating at your grandmother’s house. And you can truly feel the love and care put into every single item on your plate. Not to mention my plate was completely overflowing! This will definitely be a regular spot of ours and I encourage everybody to come check them out. If I could give them 10 Stars I would!

Chicken fried steak was delicious! Green beans were good, mac and cheese was good, and cornbread was ok. Big portion size for $15.00! Would like to go back and check out some more of the menu.
