Corinne's Place

The food is incredible. I tell all my friends looking for Soul food to go there. The service is great when you dine in or outdoors at the restaurant. The staff is always friendly. Kevin W.

The place is not in the best neighborhood, but it was ok did. It did not feel unsafe.The service was great, staff helped be carry catering order to my car in very convenient boxes.The food is so good ! Smothered Pork chops were tender and gravy was succulentThe cabbage and greens combo was really good. Yams were yummy and fried catfish was crisp and flavorful.The mac and cheese was just ok.If you're looking for real soul food go !!

I ordered the smothered Chicken collard greens and baked Mac and cheese. Everything was simply amazing. The chicken was seasoned to profection it was a bite of delight to the very last bite. The baked Mac and cheese took me back to when I was a little kid it was on the level of my grandmother Mac and cheese. The collard greens were made perfectly i enjoyed the meal and the portion size was amazing differently can't eat that I 1 setting. I got my meal from grubhub

So if anyone has read one of my reviews you know I normally reserve 5 stars for a second visit. However I'm not sure when I will be back in the area so I have to give flowers when they are due! I was working in the area and ordered through DoorDash. Listen the food arrived in a timely manner and it was piping hot! I had the turkey wings, Mac and cheese, collard greens and the peach cobbler. It was soooo much food! The turkey wings fell off the bone literally! The Mac and cheese was so creamy and cheesy and the collards had just the right amount of zest. I'll be honest I tried a bite of the cobbler but I was so full I couldn't enjoy it. And the portions! I have enough for another full meal! If you're in the area you gotta check them out!

To my mind, this is the only valid soul food place in Philly... and it's in Jersey. But I tried and tried and tried to find someplace in the city and nothing met the standards. So over the bridge I had to go. Corinne's is basically a "meat and two" type place. All of the mains that I've had have been great, except for the salmon croquettes, which were just okay. All of the sides are delicious. Standouts include the greens, yams, and mac. Cornbread used to be included, but now it's an add on (maybe $1.50). The cake slices are most definitely made from box mix, but they put that jello pudding in there, so they're moist and delicious. The peach cobbler is just alright. Closed on Mondays. And closed a little to early almost every day. Definitely call before you come if you're taking out -- the wait can be up to 45 minutes if they're busy.

While I don't think many dine in at Corinne's Place--looks like the dining room is used mostly for events, lured by its recent placement as #42/50 in Philadelphia Magazine and a recent James Beard award for regional food, we greatly enjoyed our dine-in experience.We decided to go with the Family Value Platter (3 meats, 3 sides) for $110.00 and after indulging, each couple came away with a to-go container of delicious soul food. The platter comes with two desserts (individually packaged) and we had a pitcher of sweet tea. Upon our server's recommendation, we tried the (1) fried chicken, (2) fried whiting, and (3) barbecue pork ribs along with (a) baked mac & cheese, (b) collard greens, and (c) rice & gravy. We also had a side of fried chicken wings, which turned out to be much like the fried chicken--not bad leftover, though--and some okra, corn & tomatoes, which had great flavor! The whiting is a delicate white fish and was terrific with a hit of Corinne's hot sauce (definitely ask for some if you like your food spicy!). The fried chicken was perfectly juicy and crispy. But the barbecue pork ribs won the meat game with fall-off-the bone, delicious BBQ sauced meat. My favorite sides were the baked mac & cheese and the collard greens--the latter were so tender! And the apple cobbler was sweet and cinnamon-y.I agree with Holly W., I did wish there was less plastic used, at least for those dining in, but I'm sure we'll reuse the platter for a potluck down the line!

Food is always delicious and great portions. There is only a few things I'll drive over the bridge from Philly for and Corrine's one of them.

I was looking for some place to eat that's delicious and that's really going to satisfy those Ramadan cravings. I ordered a fried chicken wing platter with cabbage/greens and yams. My old man got beef ribs with Mac n cheese and rice and gravy. The ribs were fall off of the bone good. The sides were delectable and they give you great size portions. The only thing I regret is not asking for them to fry my wings harder. Other than that, the food was good.

Really wonderful soul food with gigantic portions. Came here after reading that it won James Beard award for regional food. Pleasant patio tent or eat inside. Staff very nice. BYOB. I had BBQ pork ribs, collards and Mac and cheese. All delicious. Mac and cheese authentic and very cheesy. Husband had fried chicken and okra/tomatoes/corn. My only beef is they use a LOT of plastic. Even eating in we were served with big plastic trays, utensils, and bottled water. That being said, we couldn't possibly eat it all and would have needed take home trays anyway.

The weekends are insanely busy. Food is consistent and platters are full. This is my Mom's favorite place.
