Alfreda's Soul Food

I hate to be this person, but I’m highly unsatisfied. I just moved here 2 days ago & I passed by this place my first day & I was so eager to try it. I ordered some food today, & after I did something told me to read the reviews.. if I had seen the reviews before I ordered, I wouldn’t have ordered. First off, my food came messy. My gravy was EVERYWHERE! The turkey legs seemed to look like it’s on steroids.. I have 2 different brands of green beans.. & not to mention I didn’t receive my peach cobbler that I ordered. The turkey wings could’ve definitely been cooked longer.. this was not a great experience. I called twice & left a message.. no answer. Definitely won’t be getting my service again, it only takes one time with me.

This place is near a historical emancipation park[formally Dowling Park]. Down home type cooking, smothered porkchops, greens, etc. However, the staff news to improve and service counter could use 2 people to handle orders. From what I'm seeing now, the kitchen does not keep up with orders in a timely fashion [ items missing from orders causing more delays]. Staff should be wearing hair nets and servers aprons....my pov. Notice employee come in and start handling orders. No handwashing,, no apron/hair net. Straight from street to behind counter. Kitchen ran out certain item and tells customer to come back 2hrs??? You should be aware of food items low and get replacement ready...

Went on a Sunday because I was craving some soul food.I had 4 pieces of fried chicken only one was seasoned. Mac and cheese was ok and yams were extremely stringy. Dressing was good. Restaurant was clean service was good.
