I Love everything about this place, it’s a whole vibe. Best food and the best customer service money can buy!!!! Generous portions. Fried chicken was perfectly seasoned, tender and juicy, Mac n cheese so good and creamy, the cabbage was to die for (yet i lived just to tell you all about the amazing food) 😂😂🤣🙌🏾🙏🏾💪🏾
Upon entering the restaurant, I was a bit confused. I was thinking, the restaurant was closed. However, after the host! Realized I was not a bomb😂(I was just getting off of work) With my TCU sweater on. The host broke the ice, with her jokingly asking. If I played for TCU. Fast-forward, I received magnificent customer service. The chef, kept me informed, while he fixed a fresh pan of sweet potatoes 🍠. I got here to the man camp. To a great dinner, still hot & fresh. I will be back! Thank you all🙏🏾
I was craving some food so I door dashed from here and let me tell you. This was the best food i've ever tasted in Midland. 🤣 The mac and cheese was so good my 1 year old was loving it. The candied yams were so soft and full of flavor, the cornbread was so fluffy and sweet, and the neck bones, my god they were so tender. I wanted to try the oxtails but they only have them on certain days but when that lady called me she was so sweet, i just got more neck bones instead but they were yet again delicious. 😍
I want something to eat, but didn’t want fast food! So I googled different restaurants and Doris J’s Kitchen popped up. I haven’t had soul food in a long time!! So I decided to stop in and try it out. Very quiet place and clean. The gentleman that waited on me was pleasant. The food was very good!! And well seasoned, I like spicy 🌶️ foods so I had to put hot sauce on my food! Hot sauce wasn’t hot but I made it work. LoL Everything was delicious, I will be back!! Keep up the Great work!!
We ate here when it first opened and were seated quickly. The Kool-Aid wasn’t too sweet—it was just right. Our food came out fast with generous portions, and everything was delicious. The only reason I didn’t give 5 stars is because the AC was out, so it was a bit warm inside (though they did have large industrial fans running to help). Overall, we thoroughly enjoyed the food, and this spot is definitely worth checking out.
While visiting to Midland i decided to take out at Doris J’s for my first time here and it blew my expectations from how generous the prices were for the meals and individual items. Customer service was spectacular at the front and my order was done quick and ready for take out, and by far the meat loaf was very very good when I say it. The sides were also great, decent rice, gravy mashed potatoes were great, and the mac and cheese slight cheesy had flavor to keep eating it. And the banana pudding was also very tasty as well, I’d say the only thing that could hinder the experience is the inside around, if some music or decor was added, it’ll add a nice touch to the place. Overall great food and customer service and is always best in my book with portions also very very great to add in. Would totally recommend this local soul food restaurant.
Stopped in today with my big brother while we were out here in Midland. We both ordered fried chicken with macaroni and cheese green beans yams and broccoli cheese rice. Everything was amazing. Service was a little slow because they were short-staffed but that was to be expected same thing with waiting for the food 15 minutes because of course I have to fry chicken fresh it was definitely worth the wait. Definitely needed that for this drive home. But we definitely will stop back through here when we come back this way.
I have visited Doris around 4 to 5 times while staying in Midland for work. The food is excellent, offering generous portions for the price. My go-to dish is the fried chicken, which never fails to impress. Another favorite of mine is the ox tails, but they are only available on Sundays and Fridays, which is disappointing because I could eat them every day! Their muffin-sized cornbread is simply amazing. I'm usually not a fan of cornbread, but they have won me over with theirs—it's that good. The customer service is decent, with everyone I encountered being friendly. The only downside is the lack of air conditioning, making it a bit warm inside. Overall, I would rate this place 8.2 out of 10.
