Hood baby soul food restaurant

Seasoning tasted like under diluted lipton onion soup mix. Everything was extremely salty to the point of diluting in water to no avail. For all of you seeking authentic soul food like down south, bless your soul and the cook, THIS IS NOT IT!!. Not worth the time or money spent.

Food was very tasty and hot. The only 2 negative things was that the cornbread was missing and I had expected more ox tails that just 2 pieces but I also know that ox tails are expensive. Overall customer service was good and so was the food.

Listen... I know times are rough and the prices here may SEEM a little high, and it may take a while for your food to be made... BUT IT IS WORTH IT!! The food takes a while to prepare because it is cooked to order!! Unless you get some of the food that is available that's already made. Those items are the ones that may take a while to cook like homemade mac and cheese or collards greens for example. If you order something like I don't know TURKEY LEG CHEESE FRIES... then you may have to wait 15 or so mins. The meat was pulled like pulled pork or shredded chicken. Soooo dang tender and the BBQ sauce was tangy and sweet like it should be. And check this out... the hidden gem inside was COLLARD GREENS! Don't knock it until you try it. If you're from the south you already know. Just give them a chance because they just opened recently and I think they are on point with the quality of the food.

Owner is very sweet, service is accommodating and helpful. Food is very good and seasoned well… be patient it is cooked to order and fresh… worth the wait! 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽

I went to Hood Baby today, and it was so delicious. The service was great. I live 0.8 miles from the restaurant. Don’t have to go to L.A. to get some good soul food anymore.

OMG! The Food is amazing! It’s seasoned to perfection! I definitely will be back❤️❤️❤️❤️

When we first arrived, there wasn't anyone behind the counter and the door was open. The cook came in a minute after us, and said, I think she's in the bathroom, and he walked in the back and said ARE YOU IN THE BATHROOM, OH MY GOD! The young girl working the counter, doesn't know anything, every question I asked her, she responded with, I DON'T KNOW! For starters, they only had 5 items ready to serve. They don't open til 12pm on Saturday's. I had there over cooked baked chicken, and over cooked beans and rice, with there tasteless greens. They brought the cornbread out, but the pan was so deep the cornbread had a big hole in the middle of it, and full of butter sitting in the center of the uncooked cornbread, which they took back. My wife had Catfish and fries, which they cooked when we ordered, (good job). There awful food was over priced. I'm 58, and don't ever recall having food this bad, not sure where that so called cook is from. We had to clean our own table off, and it was so hot in there, no AC! We were the first customers of the day, and there wasn't a letter grade posted, not sure if a letter (F) exists! I could go on, but you decide for yourself. God bless your restaurant!!!!

The food was really good. We had the Oxtails potatoes yams greens cornbread rice cobbler banana pudding & kool-aid. They are very generous with the food. The place is family oriented. My son loved it, and the staff, as well as the chef, were great hosts. HOOD BABY for the Good Eats 🏆
