"Before I start this review... 5 stars?!! Either these ppl are friends or relatives of thee owners or they are just trying to give support to a small black owned business in their area but 5 stars is delusional!!! Now they could have also had parents who can't cook and have destroyed their taste buds or ability to know the difference between good and bad food. Woosaw... 1st off if you drive too fast, you may miss this place. It's a tiny space on a corner. Possibly only 10' wide. But I've been to hole in the walls that have knocked my socks off. This is not that place. To start, service will be slow. The cook does not use gloves which almost made me leave to start. Let me go on record to say, this cooked then microwaved mac and cheese is the worst I've ever tasted. Took a bite of this hard thing and spat it out. Fries horrible. Chicken is seasoned well and may be thee only thing edible there. Collard greens are good. Looks like a place that would take cash only but they do accept cards. 1st visit, last visit. No offense but I'm offended."
"I cook southern food and is very picky about where I get my family’s food from. I usually cook it myself, however I trust and had Al’s food for a while now! It is absolutely delicious and whenever I have a party or need to get southern food quick I come to Al’s kitchen! Don’t let the shop fool you! This is the best soul food you gonna fond on the island!"
"I first knew this place 7 years ago, when I came out of church with my children looking for a place to get some good food because we didn't feel like cooking. It wasn't disappointing. My children and wife enjoyed it so much that we go there very often to get food when we don't wanna cook. The price is very reasonable, the place is very clean and Big Al and his wife are very friendly. The food, wow wow wow, very tasty and finger licking good. Give it a try and you would know."
"Nice day for a drive to get Sunday dinner @ BIG AL's!! Glad I did, because it gave me a chance to see where my food is being prepared.. This kitchen spot is located on the corner. Though it's not a sit and dine restaurant, the Southern aroma permeates in the air. Upon walking in the 'Kitchen, Big Al. himself greeted us. After placing our orders, Big Al went to business: preparing our plates: BBQ Ribs, Turkey Wings, Potato salad (which I've had a taste for quite awhile), Collard Greens. DELICIOUS!!!! Ribs were well seasoned with the right amount of BBQ sauce. Love a rib when the meat is falling from the bone, tender & succulent... The potato salad was just right! Tasty and to my liking. Collard greens cooked with smoked turkey. Healthy portions! Each food dish greeted with a nod and smile. Well worth the price. We'll be back to try the other dishes. Big Al , the owner, was pleasant and welcoming. Hope he adds desserts to his menu... That would be the topping to a good day's or night's meal. I'd definitely recommend this eatery if you're looking for a fresh home cooked meal!!"
"A hole in the wall is the exact definition. If you drive too quickly you will miss it. Manned by one man. You walk into a counter and the prices are cheap. The food isn't high end quality but it's not too bad."
