Watch the recent press conference to celebrate the Detroit opening of Fixins Soul Kitchen. Former NBA All-Star and Mayor of Sacramento Kevin Johnson and his wife Michelle founded Fixins to combine his love of Black culture and her obsession with great food.

Kevin grew up with soul food being the connective tissue of the Johnson family. Barbeques and reunions always featured Grandma Glady’s famous peach cobbler and competitions around who made the best collard greens or potato salad. This restaurant pays homage to this African American family and Johnson’s network of friends and associates by featuring all their best recipes and family favorites.

KJ played in the NBA for 12 years and traveled to 28 cities regularly. Being on the road made him crave home cooking, so he often sought out soul food restaurants. He loved those rich experiences but also felt he could build on the best traditions and redefine the American soul food experience by combining it with great service and a cool aesthetic for the restaurant. The result is Fixins Soul Kitchen.

Fixins seeks to set the standard for the American soul food experience by offering authentic soul food and impeccable service in a hip, energetic atmosphere. Guests experience “Black Excellence” through their delicious cuisine, friendly service, and spotless restaurant.
