Teacher: Now, understand the problem? Solve this instance: This place is pretty pretty pretty good when it comes to soul food. I loved this place at the same time it really fell short. I must be hypercritical because this place has a hyped up reputation and I cannot simply just nod my head.

Went around lunch time and it was packed, so we sat at the counter. Service was slow, I mean the type of slow where you consider getting up and leaving. You get better service at Chinese restaurants in china town. (that is not good).

We ordered as soon as we were finally acknowledged. It took a good 5 minutes just to get a glass of water. 15 minutes after sitting down we got some little corn cakes. These were thin corn pancakes. Did not like them. I could taste the baking powder in them. Why can't I get a piece of good cornbread at a soul food place!!???? WHY???????? Not a pancake, muffin or fritter - but a piece of damn cornbread!

Then 49 minutes after sitting down and people who came in after us getting their food... we got our 2 orders of chicken and waffles plus greens and mac and cheese. Waitress forgot our sides - had to ask.

The chicken was good. It was crispy and juicy. Big wings too. The waffles were different and damn good. They may have been wheat with a cinnamon flavor. Not sure. They were fluffy and had a nice shell to the outside. Just right. I ate the 2 off my plate and another off my daughters! The mac and cheese was ok. The greens - I was a little disappointed. Too much of the ribs were in the greens and they just seemed a little tired.

The service wasn't bad, the ladies there working were working hard, but the service was just blase. Places like this get so used to being busy - they forget what got them there. Waiting close to an hour for your dinner is wrong and not even saying anything to placate the customer is even worse. You get the if you don't like you can leave attitude here.

I sat at the counter and I could see in the back. It was a mess, and that just makes me wonder.

I wanted to give this place 5 stars - I really did. The food wasn't good enough to overcome the lackluster service and curt attitude. The greens and corncakes were poorly done. Strangely enough I will go back, but with lower expectations.

I have yet to find a soul food joint in Vegas that has friendly service, real good food, clean establishment and a decent piece of cornbread!
