Hear from our valued guests
Wow, this food is delish, I had catfish fried hard and and seasoned perfectly. Mac & cheese, cabbage and black eye peas. You just have to come by and try. Portions are good I didn’t have room for dessert.
First time going to this place. Food and desserts were excellent. It was a soul food restaurant. I got the smothered turkey chops, rice and greens. They had this drink called peach cobbler tea that was excellent. The fried chicken looked great. Will have to go back for that. I had a slice of coconut, pecan cake, great.
The food was amazing. Friendliest staff ever. Highly recommended.
I visited for the first time in LA and we loved the food. The staff was very welcoming and full of smiles. I had thr turkey pork chops and they were oh so Devine. The 🍨 were even better. Thr Banana Pudding Cheesecake and Peach Cobbler was superb and that definite home made taste. If you want good soul food , thid is the place to go! A nice quaint spot to go to
This little place tucked away in a small strip mall delivers big time. I had the catfish, mac/cheese, redbeans / rice and peach cobbler.. The portions were sufficient and everything was flavorful. Staff was very nice and helpful and I met Alma. I'll return for more!
Alma's deserves all of their 5 star reviews!! I ordered the Turkey chop lunch special for $15 and everything tasted amazing! I've never had a Turkey chop but I feel like it's a perfect swap out if you're no longer eating pork! My sides were Mac and red beans and rice, both were delicious! Next time I'm in the area and craving soul food, I'll come try other menu items!
Thank you Brandon for bringing me the bomb.com pies! Omg I love sweet potato pie and cheese cake and this is both in one slice! Rich delicious but not too sweet and they aren’t stingy with the pecans! Love this place! And I love it’s in Compton I’m In carson so this being local it’s super perfect!
Ever since I found Alma's Place, I've been a returning customer. My favorites are the Mac & Cheese, Potato salad, Cabbage, Green beans, Fried pork chops dinner, pork chop sandwich, pork chops lunch special, they carry other items. But these are my go to. Dressing and gravy served only on Sundays, I'm trying next, ppl love ordering it, and they yams. Also next on my list here, trying the Pan Seared Catfish/ with bell peppers and onions.
❤❤❤❤❤❤ The food is spectacular. I come here a lot and they never miss. I never knew his name but the person behind the counter is very nice and genuine. I enjoy his small talks. The best soul food spot in compton
The best catfish I’ve ever had and one of the best Mac n cheese and potato salads I’ve ever had!! Brandon is a gracious host and Alma is so awesome. I need to try other food items, parking is right out front! Yummy food.
