There are two sides to Shut Yo Mouf Soulfood, the service and the food.

Food was excellent. Three people in our party had the liver and onions. They all said the liver was very tender and tasty. I had the grilled chicken sandwich, which you wouldn't think would be that extraordinary...wrong! Honestly it was one of the best chicken sandwiches I've ever eaten. The chicken was tender, well seasoned, and not overcooked.

The service leaves a lot to be desired. Our food took about 45 minutes to get to us. No one ever came to give us a heads up on why things were taking so long. When we finally asked when we should expect our food, we were told it was being plated now. Ten minutes later, we got our food.

Don't get me wrong, everyone there is extremely nice, however, our waitress didn't seem to know what was going on most of the time. We never got cornbread that was included with the liver and onions. One person in our party got the wrong side. The side she wanted didn't make it out to the table until we were almost ready to leave.

I certainly hope this restaurant can work out the kinks in the service side of things because the food is outstanding.
