This restaurant has a good homey feel. The food is so good. Comfort at its finest. The staff were really attentive and pleasant and the owner treats everyone like family. I recommend the jambalaya and the sweet tea that has mango in it. The fried shrimp and fish were really good. As well as the gumbo, Mac and cheese, fried rice and cabbage. I am from out of town but whenever I am back in the area I will come back.

What an amazing experience!! From the atmosphere, the staff, to the food!! I don’t know what took us so long to try Willie Mae’s! The food was so delicious and full of flavor down to the kids chicken tenter made with REAL pieces of chicken! Our waiter was the perfect amount of attentive and right on with refills and taking plates away. Oh and the biscuits definitely get the biscuits

Scratch southern food kitchen. We’ve had several meals here. The menu changes fairly regularly. The winter menu wasn’t really aligned with our tastes, however the new May menu has lots of options for our palate.
We ordered the fried chicken meal and the lemon butter chicken. Both were a substantial portion. Definitely two meals worth. They were excellent as we’ve come to expect here.
They’ve recently added wine to the menu and the wife is much appreciative. The red was to her liking. I, on the other hand, had a non alcoholic mixed cocktail with peach and coconut. It was good.
Don’t sleep on this place, but make sure you check the menu before going, less your favorite from before is no longer available.

We don’t live far, and we finally came in. Our server was very nice, and the food was delicious. The owner stopped over to our table, and she was so nice to talk to. I definitely want to go back to have Uncle Leroy’s shrimp and cheesy grits dish again!!

Best Southern food without having to go down south. The place and location is unassuming. It has its own brewery on premises. There is also outdoor dinning, of course that is for the warmer months. Located not far from the West End Fair Grounds. Service felt personal.

We visited on a holiday weekend as we were passing through and were surprised we had missed this cute place in the past. The food was decent and we both took portions home of the seafood gumbo and meatloaf. Unfortunately, the cornbread was reheated so it got a bit hard and dry, but we’d like to give it a second chance fresh. For an appetizer, the Mac and cheese with brisket was warm and comforting. Definitely going to visit again!

We tried this restaurant tonight and love it! The food was very delicious. The crab & spinach dip was amazing-you can taste the crab in every dip. We also ordered the meatball, seafood bisque, Smothered Chicken Meal & Seafood Gumbo. Everything were tasty and price is very reasonable. We will definitely go back to try more dishes!

Seafood bisque was amazing different than what you would get in a seafood restaurant wasn’t heavy cream and some seafood in it real homestyle fresh tasting. The Crab dip wow with homemade chips to dip into was something to go back there just even for that. Service was amazing very friendly and accommodating. Biscuits where really good. The cranberry maple meatballs delicious I ate most of them before I took the photo. Cozy place. Good stuff.

Birthday Expectations Exceeded!
The appetizers reunited our long-abandoned tastebuds, each main course was a masterpiece of flavors, and dessert was beyond delectable and most delicious.
None of this matched the genuine hospitality of the owner and her staff! We observed as every table was treated with the upmost respect as if they were the honored guests of the evening.
100/10 recommend ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
