Sweetie Pies Frying Bird - Tougaloo

The food is so amazing. Every bite is the very definition of southern cuisine. The food is like being in a loving true southern grandma's kitchen.Wheelchair accessibility: Ramp available

Was welcomed with great enthusiasm. Ladies served the food professionally. Hostess checked on me while I dined. Food was absolutely wonderful. ? I also had a to-go order of oxtails over rice. Magnificent. Facility was clean. Restroom was clean. Truckers: I even parked my semi (bobtail) outside. Call first to check for parking. It's not too far from the Petro and Pilot off i20.

Made my first visit to Sweetie Pies. The ladies working the line and table area are phenomenal! Super sweet and attentive! Service is definitely an A+! My lunch consisted of baked chicken, boiled okra and Mac and cheese. Got some peach cobbler as well. Food was decent. Chicken skin was flavorful but the meat could have stood slightly more seasoning. Mac and cheese flavor was good but it was too mushy to me. Boiled okra was my favorite! Peach cobbler reminded me of my grandmother's peach cobbler! I will definitely be back for another meal.

I am writing this review from an Atlanta point of view. TERRIBLE, from the food (old chicken, unseasoned okra, dried corn bread and overly sweet pear cobbler. I must say the only item I did enjoy was the mac and cheese) to the disposition of the staff (attitude when I asked for non traditional 2 piece) and the old dilapidated building. A lot more thought and energy could have been put in place to ensure Ms Robbie's name and legacy was passed on with great easy. This restaurant was thrown together with the name Sweetie Pies slapped on it. I am too embarrassed to even post the pictures that I took. I'm not sure who's writing these reviews, but my experience was far from anything more than 1 star.

Loved this place. Had the catfish, macaroni cheese, yams, green beans, dressing, mashed potatoes gravy along with cornbread. It was all verrrrry good. It was pouring down raining when we arrived, but the Sweetie Pies Live staff actually came to our car with an umbrella and escorted us inside one by one. It was 5 of us, too. They were patient with us and the food was excellent. Coming back in September.
