I had been there when they first had their grand opening. The food was amazing. After reading the reviews today I wasn't sure about returning but I was craving mac and cheese. I went and ordered extra crispy fried chicken. Well it definitely wasn't crispy not only that but it was soaked. Not sure if it was grease or if it came from the sweet potatoes. Regardless it wasn't crispy. Not only was my chicken not crispy but my mac and cheese wasn't hot at all. More like room temperature. The cheese was thick and not at all like I remembered it. Needless to say I won't be returning. The prices are a little high but I don't mind paying for good food. This wasn't it. So the reviews are on point. The chicken isn't crispy even after I requested extra crispy and the Mac and cheese definitely isn't worth it at all. So disappointing that the quality of the food has not been the same since they first opened.

Aunt Vonda's food is great, I have ordered several times. I have only ordered it to work through Door Dash, and it is perfectly sealed to confirm no tampering, it's hot, and packaged perfectly. The grits are amazing as well as the cornbread, I eat them together for the perfect taste (might be weird). Fried chicken, sweet potatoes, fried fish, greens, all of it is good.

I decided to try Aunt Vonda’s today after following them on social media. The restaurant is super cute and clean. The young lady at the counter was very friendly. We ordered a fried chicken platter, the lamb cheesesteak and shrimp and grits. Everything was really good! I will definitely be back!

Go. Just go to this restaurant.
The inside of the restaurant is so clean and well kept. The staff was amazing, super polite and ready to give a great recommendation for ordering. Aunt Vonda was enjoying a small meal before the dinner rush, and while I did not want to interrupt her meal, she was more than welcoming of light conversation and you could tell she appreciates her customers. And to top it off someone even got up and opened a door for me as I was leaving. Talk about southern hospitality vibes. Top tier customer service.
Fried cabbage and the 5 cheese Mac were slammin.
I had the whiting, cooked to perfection. And the cornbread was the perfect level of sweet.
I’ll probably be there tonight to try the turkey wings as that’s a Friday/Saturday/Sunday special for the restaurant.

I was recommended by a friend so I decided to try them for lunch. I ordered online which was an easy process & it was ready on time (approx. 45 minute wait time). The place itself is real cute (pictures below), it was clean & quiet. The young lady at the counter was very engaging & friendly. Now the food itself… I ordered the 4 fried chicken wings, mac n cheese, greens, potato salad & sweet potatoes (all soul food staples). The pros: Portions are large. Fried chicken was crispy. Presentation was good. Cornbread was adequate. Greens were good. The cons: The potato salad tasted store bought. The mac n cheese looked & tasted like it had never even touched an oven. The sweet potatoes were tasteless. Overall meh. Yes, I would give them another chance.
