I had been wanting to try Johnny Ray's for a while, and finally had the chance to get some takeout from their location. I was a little surprised by the industrial surroundings, but that didn't bother me. Being a native of Detroit, I'm used to finding soul food restaurants in unexpected places. The last time I had real soul food was in Detroit years ago, and Johnny Ray's definitely brought back some great memories. I ordered fried catfish, fried okra, lemon pepper wings, string beans, mac and cheese, collard greens, cabbage, all with cornbread, and everything tasted delicious. I would definitely go back. Just a tip for carryout orders, it's best to call ahead as my order took longer than expe...
Honestly, when you first approach the restaurant, it doesn't seem like much. However, once inside, you are greeted with good music, fantastic service, and a friendly atmosphere. Our server was incredibly polite and continuously checked in to see if we needed anything. He even went above and beyond by asking if we had any questions or concerns about the food, which is a rare occurrence these days. I had nothing but positive feedback to give. The food selection and quality were both top-notch, and everything we tried - particularly the Mac n' cheese, fried okra, and BBQ wings - was delicious. The BBQ wings, in particular, had a great flavor and a satisfying crunch. If you're in the mood for so...
If you haven't been here, Get here! Found this hidden gem ? in Sterling, Virginia. Tucked in the cut while getting gas on spring break. I must say I was blown away by the service and taste of the food. We placed a pick up order to-go over the phone and my only complaint was that the Mac and cheese was a 30 minute wait so we didn't get it. We didn't get the whole Johnny Ray's Sultry Soul Food experience. That my only complaint.The Fried catfish is insane. Collards and sweet potatoes have a soulful taste. Cornbread delicious.Overall I will give the experience 4 stars and I definitely will be back. See photos.
Delicious fried chicken livers with light breading. The greens with smoked turkey was salty but I enjoyed them. The Mac and cheese was peppery and cheesy probably not great for kids but I loved the unexpected peppery twist. I ate in and the meal was served in styrofoam with plastic ware. Great for take out and the leftovers but probably not a great experience for a date. Easy location for a great meal near the airport, Comfort Inn and Hyatt hotels.

I traveled from Hampton, Virginia to find this restaurant using Google and it was well worth the trip. The food here is absolutely fantastic - it's clear that it's made with love. The portion sizes are generous and the prices are very reasonable. The service was top-notch, making us feel right at home. In addition, they played 90's R&B music which added to the enjoyable atmosphere. I will definitely be returning to this restaurant in the future!
The food reminds me of home! I ordered the catfish with a side of okra and collards w/ cabbage. It was perfect. The flavor was amazing and it was perfectly crispy. I will 100% be back and I will recommend this restraunt to everyone!
