We came to Missouri from Indiana and wanted to try family own food places. This was the BEST place we ate at. The amazing people there was so friendly and nice. They gave us suggestions where to go. I would highly recommend this place.

I ABSOLUTELY love this restaurant! The environment was different and refreshing! Went here for breakfast and ended up ordering the flaming out chicken, and it didn't disappoint!! Love spicy food, and the mix of sauces was truly on point! The crunch to the chicken was extremely tasty, which I truly LOVE! The salmon croquettes were crunchy and flavorful, which again i love! Each table came with board games with the smooth sound of old school R&B playing in the background is what I live for! Waitress was extremely professional and very polite. The chef and the lady who was working that day really went out of their way to answer every and any questions my husband and I had and were truly welcoming (thank you for that). My husband is a retired chef from Las Vegas Nevada and a current food critic who is hard to please when it comes to food and presentation, and when he walks away, SATISFIED you know this is the place to be!!

The blissfulness and showering of gifts in this welcoming environment. Everytime I'm here in St. Louis this black owned black definitely has my support and will be our breakfast spot. Staff friendly is all the southern comfort needed...

I loved my time here. Everyone was so welcoming and nice. Food was great, however, I was disappointed that there wasn't more bacon on the bacon platter. I will definitely be going back.

I am driving from New Mexico to Chicago for Christmas, and stopped in St Louis. I was looking for a late breakfast and So Deity Diner was near my hotel. The food was fantastic, and Faye’s staff friendly. Definitely a great place for breakfast
