R & R Soul Food Restaurant

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.

5 stars for food but 2 on service/attention to detail. A family member brought me here for lunch. It was late morning and the place was quite busy. We almost had to wait for a table but then squeezed into some seats in between 2 groups. The ambiance wasn't much, pretty bare bones - the basic look that have you expecting the food to be delicious. Once seated, the Server came out with menus and ice waters. I ordered the oxtails with no sides and no gravy. I later added 2 eggs over easy. While we were waiting for our food, a table opened up and we began to move to that table. The Server told us that we couldn't have it as a couple had been waiting for that table. However, that couple had arrived before us and had placed to go orders. The gentleman had to correct the Server and then we were allowed to take the table.The food came out quickly. My order was was correct and my family's just had too many biscuits. The oxtails were well seasoned and delicious. I was definitely quite pleased.Later the bill arrived and was given to my family member. They quickly noted that we were charged for more meals than we had ordered. They pointed this out to the Server who took the ticket back to correct it and brought it back with a "my bad". When my family went to pay, they said that it still wasn't right and the cashier had to correct the bill again. Hopefully, the Server was just having a one-off bad day but otherwise my oxtails were good and I would order them again.

R&R's has had my back for a many of years now when ai desired some slow cooked down home salmon croquets and eggs for breakfast. The food always hot and the ambiance is always lovely. Always someone else there enjoying a meal. Gratitude and give thanks to R&R Soul Food for your many years of service taking care of the appetites in the community.

$57 for 2 dinner plates and my friend M wasn't satisfied with her oxtails plate! We ate at around 5:46pm today! She treated me! Although the food came quick I liked my fish order, I'll say the sides were ok, just no seasoning on my rice /red beans or mash, the greens were fair and the catfish is the only thing I'd come back here for! Other than that they did forget my muffins and ...the oxtail plate wasn't good she said! The ambiance is fair the customer service was great but yeah it's hard to not eat if you hungry and we wanted to complain about the oxtails ....maybe gotta call them! Other than that it's an ok soul food place!

I work across from Dignity, and my colleague suggested this mess; Talking about "It's good..." Food and sides were trash! I ordered a bbq chicken lunch special and the sauce was trash, sides were trash (Mac and Red Beans and Rice). Never buying this crap again! Chicken was not flavorful, tasted like baked chicken that was not seasoned. Corn bread also tasted like sand paper! Food wasn't it!

Driving down Avalon Blvd in Carson, I thought I would show some support for Dune soul food on this rainy day, so I decided to give R&R another try. At first I wasn't even certain they were open as the door was broken and boarded over. So already I didn't feel too connected with the ambiance. I'm on the side of keep the customer standing in front of you happy instead of trying to deal with a phone order. I stood for far too long trying to place an order instead of getting direct service. Good thing another patron was there to help otherwise I think I would probably still be standing there waiting to place my order. I ordered two lunch specials. Chicken wings with a side of rice & beans and potato salad. I also ordered the oxtails with a side of yams and cabbage. Both come along with corn bread muffins. Sounds good right?Nope. Neither of my orders had any flavor. The wings were dry and tasteless. And the oxtail was wet and tasteless. Corn bread can be dry but no amount of honey I poured could resurrect these muffins. None of the sides were any good maybe with made a slight exception of the potato salad. I think this restaurant really needs to work on all aspects of running a restaurant: the ambiance, the service and the food. I honestly can't recommend R&R to anyone.

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

Order two plates of oxtails. Food looks delicious once my husband and I started eating it was to salty. When my husband said it salty coming from someone that eat salt on his food unlike me no salt. Its salty. in the only food I could eat was the red beans and rice cornbread and yam. So all the rest will go in the trash what a disappointment and what happened to restaurant are not supposed to put salt in the food unless you ask. This salty food would kill a person who has high blood pressure like me. SMH

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.
