Annie Lee's Southern Kitchen

The fried chicken was absolutely delicious. The portions are pretty large. First time trying colored greens for me and I really enjoyed them.

First time visiting today, and it was awesome!I ordered the fried catfish with mac & cheese and potato salad as sides.My wife had the 4 whole wings platter with collard greens and red beans & rice.We will be back! The catfish and mac & cheese ranked as some of the best I've ever eaten. My wife, who loves collard greens, said these were top tier. The potato salad was very good.Nice sized portions. Clean, casual environment.

Docking one star because I called in my order and they got it wrong (ordered chicken and ribs and only got the chicken) and docking a second star because they don't dress up the chicken or have sauces to lend to that. That being said, food was ready when I went by to pick it up, the candied yams were nice, the side of fries were large and the prices are pretty reasonable.

I just wish it was closer to my house. The food was outstanding. Had fried Whiting, sweet tea, cornbread, mac and cheese and yams. Fish was fried and seasoned just right and the sides were delicious. I'm rarely in this area but I'll certainly come back when I do come this way. That sweet tea was delish on the ride home.Very clean, professional and friendly. This is a place you certainly want to check out.

I had read about this place a while ago, and kept looking at the reviews, but with Covid and all, never found the time to visit until today. And wow!Went with a couple of friends on a gorgeous day that enabled us to eat outside on their nice picnic tables. I decided to forego the sides and concentrate on their ribs by ordering a half slab. The young woman behind the counter was very pleasant and asked if I wanted sauce on the ribs or on the side. I wanted to see if the meat could stand on its own, so small covered cups were provided on top of my takeout container. The ribs had a really nice char, and tasted outrageous. I only used the sauce sparingly, since I couldn't get enough of that flavor. Five meaty bones were more than enough, and we mentioned how even the fat tasted good. They weren't overly salty (I'm looking at you, Mission Barbecue), but somehow. The best ribs I think I've ever had!Annie Lee's Southern Kitchen is kind of in the middle of nowhere, but when it comes to real deal barbecue, they're right on the money. I WILL return!!!

Authentic Southern food. There's a lot of pride here, and for a good reason. Everything is prepared carefully and with a lot of flavor.The dining room is nothing fancy, but they serve great food with a smile. I'm very particular about my cornbread, because Southern cornbread is never sweet. The cornbread here is only slightly sweet, and it's a good portion for just 50¢.The BBQ sauce is excellent, although it would be nice to have a few more options or spice level. The greens were perfect. Overall, wonderful Southern BBQ.

Unique spot for take out in Ambridge!! Great customer service. The seasoning on the wings was just right. I requested a side of sauce with my ribs and was glad I did.. the ribs weren't dry just like a little sauce on my ribs. The fries were pretty good. They offer fun beverages like lemonade and cool aid. Not all items are available for walk in take out- call ahead. They accept cash AND credit cards. It was definitely fun to check out and the service was outstanding!

These lovely people knocked it outta the ballpark! The ribs were to die for, the Mac & cheese is just right and the collard greens? YUM!!! EVERYTHING was spot on!

Deliciously Authentic Soul Food.... Mac n cheese is Absolutely Fantastic!!!Try it today!!!

Full transparent review. I really wanted to like this small black owned business. I understand the "Southern Kitchen" theme but as a Southerner from New Orleans this was not it. Not even close! My first time giving this place a try was 1/23 while working in the area and today was my second time hoping for a better outcome. I understand this isn't home but good food is good food no matter what city and state you're in. This place would be some much better if they used seasoning. The fried chicken wings are the best thing smoking because it's sure not the ribs. The ribs are tough and tasteless. They are only somewhat enjoyable drowned in bbq sauce with the bbq sauce being the most flavorful thing here but you'll have some time with the chew!Mac & cheese looks great but is also bland. So bland that I can tell that the pasta isn't even boiled in salted water. Which leads to the watery bitter collard greens. Again, from the looks you'd think they were about to be something special but NOPE!!The cornbread was OK.The catfish was fresh out of the grease, crispy and tender with ZERO FLAVOR! This was the most disappointing thing on the menu because one catfish fillet cost $9 and it wasn't even a big fillet. This catfish wasn't seasoned with a pinch of salt or pepper nor was the cornmeal. It was just dropped in the cornmeal and fried to perfection!Third time will not be a charm!!
