Reviews

I had an opportunity to meet the owners of the restaurant! They were extremely kind, and offered us free drinks while we waited for our food. I ordered the chicken wing dinner which was fresh. They were out of the sweet potatoes, so I end up getting the greens and Mac & Cheese. Both of those sides were really good. The portions are a good size.When I’m in Boston again I will order from here again!

Extremely disappointed ordering from this restaurant, first time.  Muffins were missing, jambalaya was way too spicy to enjoy there is a mild option also, ended up throwing it away, and banana pudding was frozen, had to put in the microwave to soften it.  Over $40 down the drain.  First and Last time.Food: 1/5

The flavors of the food went very well together. I ordered the Best chicken plate 3 piece, for sides I got the smashed sweet potatoes and Mac and cheese. The sweet potatoes were good; a little too sweet but the nutmeg did stand out! The chicken was exactly as I expected, bomb. I would definitely order again, probably gonna try the Creole corn next time instead of the sweet potatoes. And I will be back on Tuesday for the fresh banana pudding!!

The food without a doubt is delicious!! I would've went with a five star. My husband steak tips - $23.99 for steak tips, Mac and cheese was a portion for a toddler, they placed one tablespoon of rice and beans and 6 bite size steak tips!! For $23!! My haddock portion was okay for $16 but the steak tips. My husband took three forks of the Mac&cheese and was done. Disappointed with the charge and portion. Box of pasta is not that expensive. And they are buying it wholesale. Total rip off..

I ordered take out. I wonder why they don't put the same energy into take out food like they do when you are coming in dining. So I ordered pork chop with cheesy grits and mac n cheese. The pork chop was hard and the cheesy grits tasted sour. Like it was left out too long and went bad. The mac n cheese was decent no much flavor. I also order the cajun wings and garlic smashed potatoes and grits again . The cajun wings was just regular wing with hot sauce on them. The garlic smashed potatoes was distasteful . Sour as well and I threw those away and just ate the wings afterward got a tummy ache this is insane . Black business should care about what they are producing it's not all about the money if your heart doesn't go into something maybe try a different career path. I never understood how someone can come up with the idea to open a restaurant and don't know how to cook and cook with love that food was the worst " Soul food" i've ever had

I had an overall positive experience with this restaurant.  I love sampling soul food establishments when visiting different cities. I chose Maxine’s because online in said there was an option to dine in.  When I arrived, it was only a store front. I had to download an app in order to order and pay for my food.  I was disappointed by these things.  However my food was good.  I had fried catfish, greens, Mac and cheese, with a corn bread muffin.  The fish was fresh and moist.  That was the best part. It was delicious. It seemed like a cross between cornmeal batter and beer batter. The sides were not spectacular but they were good.  I could have gotten this same meal about $5 cheaper back home in Kansas City with bigger portions but overall I was satisfied.

.fried boneless pork chops,  collard greens,  and red beans and rice. first time going here,  the pork chops were pretty good,  small side portions. I rate 3 stars for the portions and the price.  portions did not match the price.  cold and nutmegged flavored sweet potatoes macaroni and cheese edible. 3 stars from my girl. I give 4 stars for portions. I will be returning for another meal. although I did appreciate the love given. good attitudes,  nice people. I felt the "soul" attitudes and environment. I'll be back.

I had the roast chicken wings dinner that came with collard greens and red beans and rice I recommend the chicken wings and the greens the pot liquor was all over the bag and on my floor and countertop not so much the red beans and rice needed more seasoning it was kinda bland my husband liked the chicken and sausage gumbo but the sausage was little pieces of diced sausage the chicken pieces were a good size we wanted the banana pudding but they ran out so we got the carrot cake instead we both highly recommend the Cheesecake Factory Carrot Cake I know that's not from scratch but it's better than this one and that's not from scratch we're going to try the shrimp and grits next go around

My father and I stopped here for the the first time last week to get some lunch. Let me start off with saying the people inside are Absolute Sweethearts. They were very patient and polite with us from the moment we entered the door. They definitely put smiles on our faces. We ordered the chicken wings dinner, jambalaya, shrimp pro boy and collard greens. The food was made freshly for us. My parents loved their wing dinner and jambalaya and I thoroughly enjoyed my po boy! If your ever in Roxbury and feel like getting something fresh and a bit southern I recommend here

SOOOOO everything tasted good, especially the BBQ chicken, yams and potato salad.  But the portions on the sides were teeny, tiny - I am not exaggerating.  Smalls were 1 serving for 1 person and larges double that.  A lot of chicken but for $55 I thought we'd get more food.
