People talk
“ I've been coming here for around a decade. Yes, it's no longer BOB, but they've stayed true to the menu. I like that their food is NOT salty, so you can taste the true flavahs! We had relatives in from Canada and they wanted some "soul" food that can't be found where they hail from. Got them smothered chicken, turkey chops (my personal fave - aside from the chicken 'n dumplings, but that's only Thursday), and catfish whole. Sides were all very good: mashed potatoes, mac 'n cheese, string beans 'n potatoes, yams, corn, and trip order of collard greens. Needless to say, they LOVED all facets of the meal. ”
“ This place has never disappointed me in all the years that I've been coming here and tonight was no different the food was so very good I got the short ribs with gravy Mac and cheese and black eyed peas it was all very fresh and well seasoned everything was great I'm not a fan of sweet cornbread so I cooked to pieces of hot water cornbread and had some green onion IYKYK...I will definitely come back .....P.S. I took a picture of my food but I still haven't mastered taking a picture of the food before I eat . Hey I'm a work in progress ”
“ One of the best Soul food spots I have tried. That smothered pork chop was so good. Incredibly tender. Don't think I have ever eaten a pork chop that tender before. The flavor was really good. It was a bit heavy. After a while, you might get sick of it. Still amazing though. Honestly not the biggest fan of the gravy. The fried chicken was great too. Crispy skin. Tender chicken. Good flavor. This place is just comforting. It's authentic. Don't ever go to Roscoe's. Roscoe's is entry level. You want to go to joints like this. I was visiting LA and ate at Dulan's. That's not bad either. I was talking to a local and he recommended R & R. Worth it. ”
“ R&R is just an absolute delight. I came with high expectations and they did not disappoint. The friendliest staff and such incredible soul food. I felt like I had come home again. I went for the smothered pork chops dinner (flavorful, juicy, amazing) as well as the meatloaf dinner (nostalgic heaven and so satisfying). Everything was done to perfection and such good sides: Mac n cheese, collard AND mustard greens, green beans, black-eyed peas on rice, red beans on rice! I was so bummed that they ran out of gumbo early! Clean tables, outstanding decor, easy street and lot parking- I'm definitely coming back asap. The desserts looked great and there is a local owned ice cream parlor just behind this gem. Highly recommend. ”
“ This soul food restaurant has been in the city of Carson for a number of years. I must say they were always good but lately they have gotten better. I usually go on Mondays for their neckbones. "neckbone Monday". If you go early between 12 and 2 pm the food is fresh. All the favorite sides, greens, MAC & cheese, and yams are all good. their fried fish and Lima beans on Fridays are great. cornbread muffins are good, and gumbo on weekends great. This is my go too when I want soul food. Service is always polite and efficient. ”
