The 14 Best Soul Food Restaurants In LA
"Starting the weekend off with a plate of buttery grits, crisp bacon, and syrup-coated waffles at The Serving Spoon is an Inglewood right of passage. For nearly 40 years, this classic Southern diner in a tiny strip mall on Centinela has been a soul food brunch staple in the South LA community. Their popular breakfast plates are served all day, but Serving Spoon also does everything from fried catfish to sizzling liver and onions, which all deserve your time and attention. On weekdays, you can walk right in and grab a table, but a weekend brunch here will likely involve waiting for about an hour. Whenever you’re here, don’t forget to ask about the special of the day—you might get blessed with some tender oxtails or fried turkey wings before they close at 2pm.
