Absolutely astonishing food and atmosphere. Proud black community diner overflowing with southern hospitality. I got the Brisket Sandwich which was juicy and succulent. I got the kids shrimp baskets and of course seeing them I had to dad tax one, flavor was next level good and they were HUGE. Seasoning was perfect, texture was perfect. Asian picky eater Wife got the blackened catfish and said it was the best catfish she's ever had... which honestly hurt my feelings, but everything else was so good I'll forgive her this time. Seriously try it.

The food was incredible. Everything was perfectly cooked and flavorful. As great as the food was, the staff was even better. The staff made us feel special and just made the whole breakfast a wonderful experience. I cannot wait to come back. Also the music was a vibe.

Po'Shines catered for our wedding and not only was the food exactly what we wanted and delicious; but our guests loved it too! I had several guests come up to me directly just to tell me how great the serving staff were. It was very easy and straightforward to get things figured out, and not at all difficult to get in contact with John when needed. Huge thank you for your contribution to our big day!

TX girl visiting Portland. This place was fantastic! And Ms. Ruby was the kindest person. We had the shrimp basket, chicken and waffles, the pulled pork, and grits. Everything was tasty! Ignore the bad reviews. This place is wonderful

The food there is fantastic the people are fantastic. It's in Kenton, which makes it easy for me to get to but unfortunately it makes for a lot of problems with some of the bad-minded amongst the locals. It seems like folks want to come by and smash their window on occasion late at night. Very sad indeed. I think they could use some business there they are they're so good and not many people are coming by right at the moment. If you want some really good cooking it's a great place to go to. The next thing I would say is that the breakfast burrito they will serve at any time and it's really nice I have it for dinner often times. Parking is not problematic depending upon when you get there. They keep reasonable hours. It's a clean place that deserves your patronage. Well done John, Greg, Kyle?

Ruby greeted us and was our waiter. Super nice. I had the pulled pork with hushpuppies w/red beans & rice on the side. Also had a piece of sweet potato pie for dessert. Not pictured but it was super dank. 10/10 would recommend.

Loved the atmosphere, food and presentation. The fried catfish had a unique delicious coating, cooked perfectly. They offer cornbread or hushpuppies with your meal. The entire staff looked cheerful and we had such a pleasant meal.
