Soul food in the desert!!!   I've only been to the Scottsdale location, so it's a bit too \""clean\"" for my taste, but the food is a real treat.  Good break from the usual Mexican, chinese, pizza, etc.\n\nFried chicken with Gravy and Onions is my favorite.  Chicken loses some of its crispiness smothered in gravy, but that's a worthwhile trade off.  Sides are either really good or mediocre.  Avoid mac and cheese.  Very disappointing.  Red beans and rice are excellent. Collared greens are the best by far.  Spicy and hearty.  I'm not a big fan of grits, but they were creamy.  Service was a bit slow.  If you're planning on going during spring training, be weary of going after a Giants game as Lolo's is right down the street from the stadium and once the game's over, it gets really crowded and the service slows down more than usual.\n\nKool-Aid served in jugs?  Does it get any better than that?  I think not!\n\nRed velvet cake is really moist and worth the trip by itself (slight exaggeration).\n\nPrice is a bit high, but portions are good and I didn't feel ripped off by any means.\n\nFun place and comfortable for the kids.
