Luella's Southern Kitchen

I know this place already has like a million 5-star reviews but i’d still like to add onto that. The food is pretty expensive but absolutely worth it! Their mac and cheese danced on my tongue, and the chicken was so juicy. The service here was such a breath of fresh air since I’m used to bad customer service/being judged due to certain demographic characteristics. And to also see all the other customers receiving the same great treatment just attests to the fact that they truly care. The server went around to every table continuously checking in. The staff was very friendly. If you want a warm, welcoming environment with delicious food, don’t hesitate to visit here :)

Living in the south 28 years of my life, I had some pretty high standards coming in here. I can say this place has far exceeded them. The food will truly take you into another dimension. Each dish is made so tastefully, with such bold, yet comforting taste. It is truly unparalleled soul food. I’ve found a piece of home to always come to eat at. The ambience is as if you are eating as a big family. Truly warm and representative of the southern culture. Keep up the absolutely spectacular work. You guys are the BEST!

Amazing food! We had a great time speaking to Gregory. When we go back to Chicago we will definitely be stopping by again. The chicken is phenomenal and the honey gave it the right amount of sweetness.💜 the greens are to die for! Overall one of the best southern kitchens I have been to. Get the biscuits and gravy, you won't be disappointed. The only thing I didn't like was the wait time for our food...but sometimes the wait is worth it😍 it was!

The place is very small and a bit hard to find if you aren't using a GPS... The menu is a small menu but it packs a punch! We had the Nashville chicken and waffles, as well as the shrimp and sausage Mac and cheese. The food was fantastic! Would highly recommend the food for sure, my only issues with the place I had over all was I believe the girl running the place was a little Spacey and we had to ask a few times for things here and there but a very minor thing.... but the food! I posted a few photos for everyone! If you want some Nashville hot chicken with flavor throughout this is the place to go pry the best Nashville Hot I've ever had!

The food here is absolutely incredible. Best food in Chicago. And the portions are amazing. Great prices as well You order from a qr code on the table and see what's available for the day. We had shrimp Mac and cheese, salmon cakes, and biscuits. Chef is really cool. The place is super homey, No Bs. And the area is great for a stroll
