Food was hot and delicious :) me and my mom have trouble finding good soul food spots in West Philly , but this place is a must try !.. We both got the fried fish, mac and cheese , yams and greens … So Yummy :)
I was very disappointed with my experience here and felt like it was a waste of money. Finding the location was confusing. You pull up to what looks like a school with small signs that “direct” you, but there’s no clear guidance on exactly where to go. When I arrived, I only saw one person in the kitchen. I didn’t wait too long for the food, but unfortunately the food itself did not meet expectations. The mac and cheese was cheesy but completely unseasoned. The fish was soft and not crispy at all. The yams tasted like they came straight from a can. I ordered another platter as well. The mac and cheese on that one tasted slightly more edible. The sweet chili shrimp and rice was actually good, but the collard greens were not. The cornbread could have been sweeter. Overall, I wouldn’t return because I’ve had much better food elsewhere for the price.
Samaiyah B. Cooking catered the American food for my wedding, and I cannot say enough good things about the experience! The food was absolutely phenomenal, so delicious that all of our guests were raving about it throughout the night. I had enjoyed Samaiyah’s food before, so when I found out she did catering, I knew I had to have her for my wedding. From the very beginning, she was incredibly professional and efficient. She responded promptly to all my emails, provided clear pricing information, and even offered to arrange a tasting (which I didn’t need since I was already familiar with how amazing her food is!). On the day of the wedding, Samaiyah and her team were right on time and completely professional. The food display was beautiful, and the quality was outstanding. What really stood out was her attentiveness, she checked in with me during the reception to ask if guests could have seconds and made sure everything was going smoothly. The setup and breakdown were handled seamlessly and efficiently by her team. Everything was taken care of in a timely manner, which allowed me to actually enjoy my special day without any stress. If you’re looking for a caterer who delivers both exceptional food quality and outstanding service, I highly recommend Samaiyah B. Cooking. She and her team went above and beyond to make our wedding memorable!
