Ella Mae's place

Food So Damn Good Make You Wanna Smack Yo Momma 💯😂🤣😭Had The Pork Chop Dinner Nunn But Excellent Very Tasty Couldn’t Get No Bette

The customer service at this establishment was superb! We were visiting from DC, and staying near by. I found Ella’s via a Google search for near by soul food. We tried the Short Rib and Fried Chicken, Mac, Greens, yams, German Chocolate, and Carrot Cake!

There were 3 of us, and all of us loved something different. My favorite was the Short Ribs and yams! They were delicious!!!! I don’t typically eat German Chocolate cake, but decided to give it a try. I was pleasantly surprised, it was really good. The only other item I tried was the Greens. I’m not sure what was missing for my taste buds, but they were just ok. My daughter loved the Mac n Cheese.

Overall we really enjoyed the food. We will definitely be back on our next visit!

Excellent customer service, and great tasting soul food. The beef short ribs were tender, juicy and full of flavor. Yams and greens were good and the german chocolate cake was awesome

I got the smothered pork chops, mac and cheese, and yams. That's the first thing I need to say. This is my first review ever and I ABSOLUTELY needed to write this. If I could give it a 10/5 I would. Arguably some of the best soul food I've had in such a long time. I won't lie to you, I pulled up to the restaurant and I was a little skeptical because there's only 2 sliding windows and no way to get in for real. But don't judge a book by it's cover y'all, trust me! I highly suggest ordering ahead, it will take a while for them to get everything together, but trust me it is so worth the wait! I'm coming here every time I'm in the area

I am from Florida and I’m tellling yall this lady knows how to cook food was so damn good I had the bbq ribs with rice and black beans it was sooooo good definitely coming back again 💯

Great food good enough for two people if u are not a big eater. I enjoyed the wings macaroni and cheese and kool aid. Gentleman who took my order very nice. fyi one table with umbrella and benches to sit so good place to order and take home to enjoy

Mashed Potatos, Fried Okra, Dressing, Collard Greens, Macaroni and Cheese and Koolaid with a side of Carrot Cake. Oh my Gosh it's delicious 😋

My husband says, it's the Best "Meatloaf Dinner" he's ever had! Also enjoyed the porkchop and chicken wing dinner.. Sides were hearty and very good. Thank you for serving good tasty food Ella Mae Place.

Me and my family started ordering food from them last year Christmas 2021 and everything we ordered was great. Now we ordered some food for Labor Day and everything including the rolls was delicious, but I will make sure I ask them to add some meat into my green beans next time.

Placed an order over the phone the gentlemen that took my order was pleasant and made sure to repeat my order back to me. Pulled up and received my order with no issues. Although I checked my order before pulling off both I and the person who handed me my order must've forgotten that my combo came with a drink, not a big deal though. Now for the taste, my friends 10pc garlic parm wing combo was ranked#1 in her top 3, she said they were cooked and seasoned to perfection. My meatloaf dinner with mashed potatoes and cabbage was hot and delicious. I also ordered the 3 item veggie plate(mac,dressing,and yams) and each were top notch. Portions were plentiful,I am definitely full with more than enough to have some for tomorrow. I also ordered two desserts a peach cobbler and one slice of pound cake which was thick,moist and delicious but the peach cobbler for whatever reason was SALTY( I was not a fan unfortunately). All and all my friend and I loved our experience at Ella Mae's I will definitely be back to this lovely black owned business located right in my neighborhood.

Best Soul Food in Southwest Detroit/ Downriver Area. Food is always hot and fresh and never rushed. The desserts are A1 also. My wife and I eat here at least once a week, my favs are the lamp chops or the fried wing dings with a side of mac & yams. Fair and reasonable prices and appropriate wait times call ahead for even faster service. Perfect for a Sunday meal. Can’t go wrong eating here.

I love love love love the carrots cake and pound cake delicious green beans and Mac n cheese were good as well but if you like sweets it's a heck yes from me💯

Food was very good. Had the beef short ribs and Lamb chops. Short ribs were very tender. Corn was very good. Enjoyed everything. Will definitely be back.

Food is always fresh, hot and flavorful. Baby that lemon pound cake HANDS DOWN the best I've ever had. I ordered another one for my family for Christmas

Literally FIREEE entire meal was absolutely freaking premium. When I called in the guy on the phone was super cool to me and knowledgeable about the menu, I got the meat loaf, mashed potatoes, mac and cheese and some rolls all absolutely stellar, and even better, I was close (about a few blocks away) and they delivered!!! 12/10 really great food and service very happy customer. :)

We stop by after seeing all the great reviews as we were on a weekend trip at Maumee Bay in Ohio. Anthony's customer service was impeccable from taking of our order to handing it to us. We couldn't ask for anything more. In terms of the food, it was dyn no mite! We definitely recommend the Turkey chops! We plan to revisit Ella Mae's and bring more of family members with us next time. GO Bucks! 😂.

Oh my they have the best soul here😁 You have nice size portions and the prices are right 👍🏿 The sweet potatoes are AWESOME 😋😋 a long with dressing 😋😋 collard greens and Mac n cheese.I have to get more than just the 2sides with the dinner so that makes mine more expensive BUT IT IS WORTH IT❤.Thank you for serving me Ms.Vee❤😁

My favorite Soul Food restaurant 🤤

Food was delicious... Listen you order your food from a take out window and they bring it to your car.. you can't get this type of service with a great meal anywhere in the city.. oh yeah, their Kool aid is a must , just remember to get a lot of ice cause it's sweeeeeetttt.. yes, I will be back for more.

Make sure you call ahead, you order, and pay standing outside through a window, and have to wait at a wooden picnic table, or sitting in your vehicle.
The food is pretty good.
