Sarah’s Cafe served flavor in every way. The catfish was pure perfection; crunchy, flavorful, easy to inhale. The chicken tenders were more like boneless chicken wings, but flavorful, sent with sauce in the side to keep their coating intact. The green beans with potatoes, mashed potatoes, and collards were all fantastic. We are thrilled with the quality and level of cook on everything! Can’t wait to keep eating here.

Ordered for the first time through DoorDash and the food is amazing! The desserts are amazing. I will attach everything my family and I ordered. The catfish was seasoned to perfection. The smothered pork chops were good although I normally don’t like pork chops in general, but I tried it. The mac and cheese and yams were so good. I prefer cranberry sauce but the dressing was good. I will definitely be back when it’s time for a reward.

I ordered the Catfish dinner with Greens, Yams, green beans and potatoes with an extra side of cornbread. Overall it was good for me the star was the Yams and Green Beans and potatoes. The Koolaid was good to. I would’ve expected a bigger piece of cornbread for the price but it was good.

If you haven’t been to Sarah’s Cafe, you are seriously missing out. This little local gem serves the BEST catfish and yams I’ve ever had, hands down. The catfish is perfectly seasoned, crispy on the outside, tender on the inside—clearly made by someone who knows what they’re doing. And the yams? Sweet, rich, and cooked to perfection… the kind that makes you pause after the first bite.
The vibe is warm and welcoming, the kind of place that feels like home the moment you walk in. You can tell the food is made with love, not shortcuts. Supporting small, local spots like this is easy when the food is this good.
Do yourself a favor and stop by Sarah’s Cafe—your taste buds will thank you. I’ll definitely be back (probably way too often).

Enjoyed the Motown atmosphere. Excellent fried catfish, lightly breaded and nicely seasoned. The catfish sandwich was just catfish fillets between two pieces of grilled bread. No lettuce or sauce. Again, the fish was fantastic. Friendly service. Food came out nice and hot

They have regular hours posted, but don’t always keep them and that is why it took me awhile to try this place. However, the catfish is delish!! If you like catfish, this place is clean, cute, and friendly. I can tell they have regulars and friends coming in, but I still felt very welcome. The namesake, Sarah, was also friendly when approached. I believe she stays in the back cooking, but not certain. I would definitely go back. Keep in mind the menu varies from lunch to dinner. This is a small, locally-owned business and the seems like a smart business plan to me. Prices are more than fast food, but you are getting food that is prepared special for you as you order and is peaceful vibe in there. I wish them much success!

Saw Sarah’s Cafe on the news, drove 2 hours to come and check out the new restaurant, eat some great food and meet new people. The soul food experience is a must, the best we’ve had in years, taste like Big Mama made it. Greens, yams, catfish, fried porkchops, Mac and cheese, peach cobbler….. “To die for.” Thanks for having us!
