Just Oxtails Soul Food

"I don't know what happened but Just Oxtails had really gone down hill...I was so disappointed I was mad enough to cry. I drove an hour and a half to get there. They served "canned" Glory Turnip Greens and green beans. The price for the chitterlings are a stick up without the gun. The portion size for the price is ridiculous. Never, ever again. Find another restaurant that show they appreciate their customers."

"The first time I went to this place back in 2006, I got sick! When I went in there about 5 days ago, I tried the catfish plate, and it was pretty good, salty, but it was still good. The cornbread was dry. The greens were good but very salty. The macaroni looked like it was colored and tasted strange, like chicken stock, not cheese. I guess they are trying a healthier recipe. I didn't try any desserts. They weren't friendly and welcoming, I was the only customer in line, so they just haven't bothered with being welcoming other than to say "welcome" without trying to make eye contact or smile. Try the food, see if you like it. Don't go in there with dietary restrictions! The greens have meat. Parking lot is large, but rough!"

"The food was outstanding!!! The oxtails over rice and gravy was seasoned to perfection. The greens tasted like they were cooked by somebody grandma and the cornbread muffins ain't no Jiffy Mix. The Mac-n-Cheese delicious! I normally can drive and eat but that was not possible with this meal. The restaurant looks beat down but the food superior soul food. I will definitely be going back soon!"

"Finally got a chance to try out this place. With so many awesome restaurants in Houston, there isn't much incentive to try new places when the ones I love are consistently good. I ordered the smothered pork chops over rice, green beans and mac and cheese. The gravy had a great consistency, but it was loaded with a lot of pepper. I love lots of seasoning, but it should be well balanced. It wasn't too bad but the competition in Houston is stiff. The green beans may have been the best green beans I've ever had! I want that recipe. The mac and cheese was disappointing. Lots of mac and very little cheese. Whoever put that out needs to reconsider the industry. I give it a four because I didn't get the itis, nor was there too much salt. Next time I'll try their fried fish and other sides. Hopefully they fix the mac and cheese because that's a required side and it must be great."
