After Covid a lot of mom&pop restaurants faded in the wind. I’ve tried a few Soul Food joints in town. Christine’s stays consistent. You have to make sure you get there at the right time to get fresh food. Everything I’ve eaten has been pretty good. We prefer to take our food to go and reheat our meals in the microwave. The dining area in the restaurant is uninviting and a little suspect. The prices are a little high, but that is pretty much anywhere you go for Soul food. However, they pile on the food at Christine’s. Overall, I recommend this restaurant for to-go orders.

Customer service was great food is fresh greens were not tough chicken is really good flavor I don’t know if the macaroni and cheese is baked but the macaroni cheese is OK I would recommend going for the greens in chicken

Eventhough it looks like a restaurant, smells like a restaurant, and is advertised as a restaurant, you will be more satisfied if you base your experience on take-out. Dine-in customer service was horrendous. 4 out of the 5 plates were fantastic, But that last plate was saaaaad. Definitely ask how much everything is or you'll walk away with a $6+ piece of cake.

The candied yams are ALWAYS the best. My chitterlings were not hot throughout. I thought it was heated up and did not heat up entirely. The collard greens were good and fresh too.The hostess was horrible! She didn't ask if I wanted my order to go and assumed that I did. I sat there in the cold restaurant and ate my food out of a to-go box. I was almost half way finished with my dinner before she brought me my water. I asked for my receipt which she failed to provide. She said she would have to ring the order up again. I told her that would cause her register to be off. A gentleman assisted her with printing out a receipt. She was furious! She accused me of giving her a hard time all evening! That could not have been further from the truth. I did tell her not to get mad at me just because she didn't know how to do her job. She ranted and raved until I exited the restaurant! This was my worst experience there EVER!! I have been eating here for over 20 years. Service has always been slow and inconsistent, but to add rude customer service to it, is just unacceptable!!

In fairness, let me say we all have our not so good, and those really good days in the kitchen. Unfortunately, this must have been one those not so good days. I've had a whole lot better. No real flavor, so don't think you'llwanna slap yo momma after spending your hard earned money.

Christine’s use to be a very nice place excellent food. Customer service is very very poor. I went there to get chitterlings so I would have to clean them. The order of chitterlings was 32.00 for a container and it wasn’t full at all they charge 16 dollars but only for a half order pathetic sorry very disappointed

Food and service is superior! Excellent customer service and truly enjoyed the oxtails, steak and gravy, fish, cabbage, cornbread and the cakes.... the best I've had in a long time! Please visit this place! Quality small owned black business! A true favorite!

I got the turkey wings w/ greens & cabbage & a separate veggie plate. The food was just okay. Not very much flavor, however, the portion size is great!

I have visited this place several times, I rarely eat soul food however I love their greens and sweet potatoes. I ordered two meals, oxtails and meatloaf, the food was bland, no season and the ox tails were tough. I wish she would get better cooks
