American Food in Detroit

“Great spot on Jefferson. Meatloaf is great, mac and cheese the best.”

“Pretty nice spot on the Eastside of Detroit. The dressing is so good and moist baby it’s real!! The Mac and cheese was tasty and I had smothered baked chicken which was amazing!”

“I was in the area for immigration processing. This is about a mile away from the USCIS office on Jefferson. Had the catfish lunch with collards and cornbread, and a 7-up pound cake slice after, with tea. Absolutely delicious and the server was very kind. The food is home cooked. The restaurant is super clean and well refurbished. Really happy I found this place. Support the area.”

“We are so glad we found this place! The food was delicious and made us feel like we were eating a homemade family dinner! When my husband tasted the collard greens he said he wanted to "get up and do a little dance" they were so good! The catfish was amazing, as were the yams! In fact, there was nothing that any of us had that missed the mark (there were 5 of us). We will definitely be back whenever we are in town!”

“Such a beautiful spot, the fried chicken was amazing, and collard greens better than anything I can find in Vegas. Going to try and make it back before I head out of town. And will for sure return on my next trip to Detroit.”

“Delicious fried chicken, greens, and yams. Generous portions. Tempted by the red velvet cake on display. Server Selma was attentive and friendly. Had a friendly chat with the owner/manager too. As some others have commented, the dining room was very quiet for a Friday night, but they were doing a lot of takeout business including a big catering order. People need to get in there, sit down, and spend some time there!”

“I had catfish for the first time here and it was delicious! The chicken was fall off the bone, the yams were hot and savory, the cornbread was authentic, and the strawberry shortcake was sweet and creamy. The owner is very friendly and has done a great job with the place.”

“I have been working in Ohio for over 18 months. While I have been here I have been looking for a place where I can get REAL CATFISH. I finally found it. Great atmosphere and people... Especially the lady from Louisiana. I will be back!!! It was worth the 2hr drive.”

“Their selection of food is very tasty & delicious! our favorite meal includes Catfish,Mac/cheese! Collard greens / candid yams! My husband John & I enjoyed our entire dinner each time we dined in. Best place to dine in to eat an healthy meal ! We met The owners & waitress . They are always friendly & professional! 5 stars”

“This place is amazing. My lady and I came during a little weekend getaway and the food was amazing the service was amazing and the atmosphere was relaxing and peaceful. Shout out to Bri for being detailed and attentive to us. If you are in the Detroit area definitely come! Get the catfish”

“Detroit Soul delivers an outstanding soul food experience with its perfectly seasoned and crispy fried pork chops, and the strawberry banana milkshake is a creamy, delightful treat. The warm, inviting atmosphere and attentive service make this spot a must-visit for anyone craving authentic Southern comfort food in Detroit. Highly recommended for a satisfying meal that feels like home! Briana was a wonderful server.”

“Incredibly friendly staff every time I go and food is so well cooked and flavorful. Especially love the yams and smothered pork chops.”

“We was driving past. Dropped in. We just ordered something to try out & the food, and im glad we did. Because it was AMAZING . Smothered Pork chops, dressing, & yams. The gravy was EVERYTHING 😋 Customer service was A1. I will definitely be back.”

“Simple order of Pork Chop lunch came with 1 side and corn bread muffin. Tasted exactly the way I'd hoped and then some! For a side I got Pinto beans (they added a little rice to the beans for me with no issue) Pork chop was juicy and fried perfectly. Idk what they use in their batter but it's delicious! Can't wait to come back and try the catfish and perch!”
