😠 Incredibly disappointed. We ordered two meals one 5 piece wing, mac&cheese, and green beans. One 5 piece wing, collard greens, and candied yams. The wings while seasoned well that’s the only good thing I have to offer. The wings wfull of order but my goodness this review is needed so no other patron...

👍👍 I’ve had the food on 4 separate occasions. 2 of the times were events that they catered, the third time I was In the area and the fourth time I drove from Flint to Southfield so my sister could try it! Need I say More?! The potatoes we got were LOADED! My sister sat back and said “this is everything...

😐 The staff was friendly, food was average but tasty except the Mac and cheese that was blah. The place itself was kind of bland and boring. Prices were high in regards to what you got. Better I think for a take out place. Had better wings elsewhere for less, had better Mac and cheese a lot of places...

👍👍 The customer service at this establishment was superb! We were visiting from DC, and staying near by. I found Ella’s via a Google search for near by soul food. We tried the Short Rib and Fried Chicken, Mac, Greens, yams, German Chocolate, and Carrot Cake! There were 3 of us, and all of us loved som...

Creole chicken, seafood gumbo & jambalaya offered in a bright counter-service restaurant.

🫤 1st time there today and I'll start with the excellent customer service. It went downhill once I got home and tried my meal ... I ordered fried Turkey Chops, Mac-n-cheese, dressing (with gravy on side) and yams. I dug right into the dressing - very dry and had absolutely no flavor at all. My husband...

😐 The smothered chicken wings were pretty good. The mashed potatoes were horrible and tasteless. If I wasn't so far away, I would have brought them back! I had them on two plates. The green beans were seasoned really well, and fried chicken was tasty. The staff were really helpful and generous with p...

😠 I am just appalled by what I saw that my family members had delivered to them to consume! First off, no one at my home was able to drive so delivery was the next best option so they thought. A burnt pizza arrived and that was all they had to choose from at that moment. This thing should have been th...

👍👍 I feel like that everybody that is complaining about the food is either of pink skin complexion or they have high cholesterol so the doctor cut them off the salt Because this food is amazing the owners are very nice it is a clean establishment so what if the baked beans have pineapple I think it add...

😠 $96.00 for a wing deal meal. $106 after my tip. I asked for a couple sides of ranch and was told, they are .99 cents a piece…. I JUST SPENT OVER $100! You can’t give me a couple ranches? So I go to my car and I’m disgusted. Why did I just tip then $10 for literally nothing? It was a pick up order. S...

👍👍 Ordered the 24 piece boneless wings during their Happy Hour!!! (40% off from 3pm to 5pm daily for now) I got the garlic parmesan and the carolina gold sauces. They were huge!! Definitely will go again!!!
