Why go?

A yellow graphic with a faint city map background reads: “$15ish Meal Map. Explore the map,” with a right-pointing arrow.

Q&M’s Southern Grill, also known as Q&M’s Fish, Chik & Ribs, serves southern-style comfort food. With unique a la carte options that include individual pieces of meat, you can get a turkey/pork rib bone, fried chicken wing, pork chop, catfish, fried whiting, cod, a chicken thigh or leg for $3-$6. Each individual side costs $4.75-$5.75. 

What to order 

While the two-piece catfish dinner comes with two sides and cornbread for $21.99, ordering one piece of catfish along with one or two sides a la carte is plenty of food and saves you cash. The catfish takes up the whole takeout box and the sides are wrapped individually. Add on the cornbread for an extra dollar.
