Very good soulfood – I won't say Ms. Tootsie's has the best soul food because nothing compares to home cooking. However, if you're in the mood for really good soul food that will leave you feeling stuffed, Ms. Tootsie's is the place to be. They have great sweet tea (iced tea) that they serve with a watermelon on it. I warn you, do not drink too much of this tea. This is the type of drink that will give a person diabetes on the spot...lol. Overall, the food is really good. The only negative in my opinion is the size of the pl... read more

Worth the wait – RU sure you weren't at RBL? Ms. Tootie's cafe is excellent, but small. Tables are packed in tight, but i likeit. U can check out what the next table ordered to see if u want it. Catfish was great, not greasy & super cheesy mac n' cheese was flat-out amazing. Bring dessert home, u won't be able to finish it there. Just go and try it out 4 urself.

TERRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE – Ms. Tootsie's put us out on Friday night! Two very good friends of mine reserved Ms. Tootsie's this past Friday (the day after Thanksgiving) to have a joint birthday party. They had invited about 200 people through E-vite two weeks prior after it was confirmed, knowing that many friends and family would be in town for the holiday. They arrived shortly before 9 pm to find that the lounge area was closed and obviously unstaffed. The manager told them that the catering division had an event off-site ... read more

BEst soul food--perfect for cold weather – Went for dinner and had to wait a half hour to eat. Went next door for a drink so it was no big deal. Smothered turkey chops and collards, mmmmmmmmmmm. Sweet tea is great and it comes in Ms. Tootsie bottle, but don't forget the lemon pound cake. Waitstaff was friendly, space a little tight.Was crazy busy, but worth the wait. You won't be sorry you did.

Sinful Soul – Keepin it simple: fantastic soul food in deluxe atmosphere. Fried chicken is the best hands down, mac & cheese is decadent and pound cake is sinful. Go. You won't regret it.

Where solid soul food, B.Y.O.B. and a casual atmosphere meet on South Street. – In Short Wrought-iron candelabras and green glass votives give Ms. Tootsie's an artful elegance with neo-soul music completing an atmosphere of warmth and welcoming. There are no appetizers here: It's all entrees, all the time. Enormous portions of fried chicken and turkey chops--which, with their to-the-bone seasoning and melting juiciness, put all other eateries with aspirations to home-style to shame--come with sides like buttery cabbage, coll... read more

Great Fried Chicken – My first time at Ms. Tootsies....not so bad!!! I originally wanted to order the Fried Whiting, but they were out, so I chose the Talapia....which had no taste!!! Talapia, not seasoned at all....I also ordered the collard greens and candied yams....the collard greens were VERY GOOD and the yams were pretty good (just too much..too thick). The corn bread muffins were GREAT!! I tasted my boyfriends Fried Chicken...and it was SOOOO GOOOOD!!!! He also ordered the mac and cheese and cabbage, which were both p... read more

Wonderfully tasty food..^_^.. – Hi. I finally had the pleasure of ordering from the famous Ms.Tootsie's Soul Food Restaurant. I live in DE but work in PHL. The food looked and tasted fabulous. My concern is the space, the wait and where you must wait. I placed my food order at work. So right after work I went straight to Ms. Tootsie's to pick up my food. I noticed an older black couple was there and the woman had swollen ankles and a cane and the elderly man could barely stand. God bless them both. I think and truly believe ... read more

BEST SOULFOOD IN THE WORLD – Ms. tootsie's is the spot. They have the best soul food i have ever had. I had the catfish which was to die for, and the macaroni and cheese, which would melt in your mouth and collard greens, which would make you want to hurt somebody. The cornbread is also amazing. and they give you like a water bottle but it has ms.tootsie's name on it and they have the best tea ever. It is sweet and just to die for. I want to go all the time.
