Third order this month, and Jackson and Goodwin Soul Food never miss!!! Same consistency, same quality, same soul every time.
My girlfriend and I got the Whiting Dinner and the Fried Chicken Dinner, both seasoned and fried to perfection. The mac & cheese was incredible. The collard greens brought me right back home.
And the banana pudding? Worth the order by itself. I'd drive across town just for that.
This is food made with real heart and soul. Customers for life. ❤️

On Friday, January 2, while searching for a local soul food fix, DoorDash introduced me to Jackson and Goodwin Soul Food. I read the glowing reviews, placed my order—and immediately wished I had gone in person. That feeling deepened the moment Simone offered me a sample of the duck. One bite in and I knew without question: next time, I’m ordering the duck.
From the warm, genuine welcome by owners Simone and Robert to the spontaneous dessert tastings, this was hospitality at its finest. They should be selling customer service lessons too. I promptly expanded my order to include coconut cake, a large Uptown, and turkey soup. Everything was made with fresh ingredients and love and the order was ready before DoorDash’s quoted time.
And then there were the little details the kind that tell you a place truly cares. The packaging was thoughtful and warm, right down to the Dum Dum lollipop tucked inside. That small, playful touch felt like a wink from the kitchen and perfectly captured the spirit of Jackson and Goodwin: generous
The Food:
Fried Chicken (dark meat): Expertly seasoned, crisp, and not greasy, comfort done right.
Mac & Cheese: Lusciously cheesy and deeply satisfying.
Potato Salad: Perfectly moist with just the right balance of seasoning and mayo.
Sweet Potatoes & Collard Greens (with turkey): Fresh and soulful
Turkey Soup: Even better the next day pure comfort in a bowl.
Jackson and Goodwin isn’t just serving plates they’re preserving food tradition, generosity, and joy.

literally cant say enough but let me start with the fact that the spare called me to let me know they were out of green bean instead of letting nothing get delivered. 5 out of 5 starts for that alone . Great staff , super help full . 10 out of 5 stars on the food I have no notes

This was the worst soul food I've ever had. I ate most of the chicken with bbq sauce , so it wasn't a complete waste. However , I wouldn't recommend
