A Taste Of Julia's

A Taste of Julia's catered our party last weekend and it was fabulous. They delivered and set up the food on time in our West Chester home. We ordered the fried chicken, sweet potato casserole, mac'n'cheese, collard greens, rolls and their sweet tea punch. We've dinned in some wonderful restaurants in the south (Charleston, SC, Savannah, Ga, etc.) and Julia's dishes are just as amazing. Our guest raved about everything especially the chicken and the mac'n'cheese-everyone went back for seconds and thirds. We look forward to having them cater future parties and visiting their restaurant. more

nice soul food restaurants, good place to take the family, the food was great, tea punch is good, but a little too sweet for me. Pros: home cook meal Cons: a little cramp and over price buffet more

We went to Taste of Julia's for the first time on Saturday 2/13/10. It's located on Route 4, where the old Spinning Fork used to be. Looks like they do a pretty good amount of take-out business, but also offer a full menu, and a buffet. That night they were doing a Valentine's special offering the buffet, appetizers, and dessert, but we stuck with the basic buffet, which was more than enough. While the buffet was a little pricey, it was far and away the best buffet I've ever had (and I am not typically a fan of buffets.) The buffet had fried chicken (which was some of the best fried chicken I've ever had), ham w/ pineapple, smothered chicken, meatloaf, greens & cabbage, sweet potatoes, black eyed peas and real southern style cornbread (just like my mom's, not that sweet stuff these Northerns call cornbread!) There was more on the buffet but you get the idea. We got there around 5:15p and were the only dine-in customers when we arrived, but the place was full by the time we left around 6:15p. The service was friendly and informal. It was a different dining experience, more like a pitch-in dinner at a Southern Baptist church where all the women cook for the taste of it and never heard of the words 'low fat.' I saw a negative review for Julia's on line but it was from about a year and a half ago. I have to say our experience was fantastic and I believe that they have worked out the 'kinks' that those diners experienced. Eating at Julia's was definitely a splurge both on price and calories, but we'll be back whenever we need some good old fashion comfort food. There is no place like Julia's in the area and it was a breath of fresh air. Pros: Home cooked comfort food Cons: buffet is a little pricey more

I just ate here for the first time and to say I wasn't impressed is an understatement ! In fact, I'm not even sure what they are doing is legal! Our family of four came into the restaraunt on a Saturday evening. The large overhead menu had various items on it, of which the most expensiVe was $ 9.00. As we were being seated I requested a menu. The lady seating us suggested the buffet. We were all very hungry and decided to get the buffet and forego waiting on a meal. There were no glasses. Everything was in plastic cups and styrofoam bowls except the plates. The food was no more impressive than the atmosphere. Pros: None after you see what they charge for a buffet meal $17.50!! for picnic food! Cons: Price, atmosphere more
