Matthews Home Style Cooking - Gardena

I was craving Catfish Grits after having oatmeal for breakfast (smh). Matthews served up hot fish and creamy grits that hit the spot! The portion size was just right with 2 fish fillets. The food was served fresh and piping hot. One thing to note is that some reviews mention the lack of salt in the dishes. I personally found that the grits were a bit under seasoned, but I actually prefer that to overly salty food. I appreciate the "new school" approach to soul food that doesn't go overboard with salt. It's important to remember that too much salt and sugar can be harmful, as seen with Big Mama. So, overall, a satisfying meal at Matthews!

My boyfriend and I are on vacation in California and were in search of some soul food that was black-owned. The food was excellent and the service was also great. We will definitely be returning! Food: 5/5
