Amy Ruth's succeeds in presenting Southern food that manages to be up-to-date without sacrificing time-honored traditions. - Eric Asimov

New York Magazine  

If you aren't so lucky to have a southern grandmother of your own to cook for you regularly, visit Carl Redding's instead. - Chloe Osborne

i love soul food, my pork chops were great, i strongly advise getting them without the smothering of gravy, gravy on the side is much better. although we sent back my friends fried chicken, amy ruth's second attempt was moist crispy and seasoned to perfection. the sides was what did it for me though. the fried okra was sweet, macoroni and cheese was not mush of cheese and overcooked noodles but included deep cheese flavor with texture. and the cornbread was on point.
