The level of richness that this restaurant brings to the dreary surroundings of downtown Fresno is like a shining star in a dark night. The business location and hours are a testament to how much time it takes to prepare to serve such high quality fare. My partner and I were making such vulgar sounds when consuming our food, that someone might think we were doin the do. It’s a whole experience. I’ll be back, and I’m bringing my friends!
My mom and I came on Sunday for a late lunch. Chef Paul is not only a delightful man, but he’s made a menu that really honors soul food. We got the fried chicken with a side of greens and potato salad, okra and grits, and fried green tomatoes—the serving sizes were beyond generous, we ended up taking most of our meal home and it was delicious, even warmed up a day later.
Chef Paul Smothered Fried Chicken with mashed potatoes and mac and cheese was great at this black owned business! I also bought his hot sauce and it definitely made that chicken pop with every bite! I will be back!
Chef Paul's is absolutely 🔥🔥🔥. Thanks for the hospitality, Liz (waitress)!!! #1 Southern Food restaurant in the valley.
Food was amazing! Employees were very friendly. Place was clean and restrooms where nice and clean. Kick back kinda atmosphere. We had friend green tomatoes and okra and the gumbo and BBQ plate. Everything had great flavor.
Went here on a Saturday afternoon. Place was pretty packed with people also picking up orders to-go. Parking wasn't too hard to find. Sat at the counter and was promptly helped. I ordered their Braised Oxtails with a side of mac n cheese, mashed potatoes and gravy and cornbread. The meat of the oxtails fell right off and the gravy used to smother it was delicious. The sides were very delicious. Portion was pretty big and can definitely be shared with 2 people. The only downside was the food wasn't too warm when it came out. Overall a delicious experience. I spoke with the owner, and he's a real nice person. The area is sketchy, and the inside was a tad cold, but the mural on their wall is definitely a highlight. Gives off a Ernie Barnes Sugar Shack vibe. Highly recommend coming here.
This place was popping! I am so glad I came here on a whim. The food was amazing… I mean my cholesterol level is near death but I knew what I was in for :) #supportlocal
I had lunch with a friend they invited me and it was so delicious. I’ve never had soul food. The owner turns out to be one of our customers at Smart And Final. Very nice, friendly, great attitude. I love the vibes. I would definitely recommend it to anyone.
