Chef Marilyn's, Queen of Down Home Southern Goodies

Juliet Bournigal

Hands down the best soul food I've had in LA. I'm from Georgia so the bar has been set high. Staff is always nice and they give you HUGE portions. Definitely would try the smothered pork chops or chicken. You also can't beat the price. You'll definitely need a nap after eating here.

Today I ordered a smothered pork chop, mac &cheese, black eyed peas and two cornbread muffins. I was overcharged $5.50 by the cashier. She charged me for a fried pork chop which I didn't order and nor was it in my plate. I should have realized something was wrong when she rushed and put my receipt in the bag without handing it to me. I realized I was overcharged in reviewing my receipt once I returned home. The cornbread muffins were hard as if they were old and reheated. I will not be patronizing this restaurant again. Please review your receipt before leaving this restaurant or you may become a victim like I was.

I haven't been here in about 3 to 4 yrs... I went last month and was very disappointed😥 I wanted meatloaf, mashed potatoes and sweet corn... The meatloaf was nasty🙄 the mashed potatoes was definitely boxed and not from scratch👎 and the only veggies they had was collard greens and I don't eat collard greens😫... What a shame... and the corn muffins tasted like they were a few days old. This place use to be poppin!!... I should of known better not to go back there again when I seen a roach in there 4yrs ago!!🤢

Chef Marilyn never fails to deliver! Her food is consistently fresh, high quality, and delicious! It is a bit pricy, but let’s be honest, we often pay much more for food that tastes worse just in the name of “luxury.” Her prices are not ridiculous, but they are a little high. Besides that, her food tastes like good Southern home cooking. It’s good to remember what that feels like.
