WHAT CUSTOMERS ARE SAYING

  • "Absolutely fantastic! This is definitely official soul food! We tried Fried fish, collards, Mac and cheese, cabbage and pork rolls all very delicious but the bread pudding with raisins and that rum sauce was so good ! Fast and friendly service!"

    Natasha Johnson Harris

  • "I’m so glad I stumbled upon Pauline’s. The food was absolutely AMAZING. This is true Southern comfort food with a fresh, modern twist. Chef and owner Tim is as kind and warm as he is talented; you feel like you’re his guest, not a customer. Every bite was a revelation. The corn pudding was divine, rich, creamy, subtly sweet, and unlike anything I’ve ever tasted before. And the egg rolls? Mind-blowing. Crispy on the outside and bursting with flavors that danced between savory and soulful. I’ve had egg rolls all over, and I’ve never had anything like these. I also tried their fried fish, mac & cheese, and collards. Everything was seasoned perfectly and served with care. You can tell this is food made from the heart, not just the kitchen. If you’re in the Chesterfield North Chesterfield or Richmond area and you love comfort food done right, drop everything and go to Pauline’s. This is easily the best food I’ve had locally, and I can’t wait to come back. Highly, highly recommend!!!"
