★☆☆☆☆ 1.0 Zaahirah Richardson · Dec 2025

Got a platter from here for my work lunch & i had a hair in my food. Had to work a 12 hr shift they wanted me to bring the plate the next day. Employees are unaware of refund policy wasted my time after telling me it’s okay to come back for a refund . The little of food I had yams were bland Mac and cheese was bland. Short ribs were good but for the price they are should been falling off the bone .

I ordered a 1/2 baked chicken dinner which comes with two sides. I ordered an extra side of yams. I received a quarter piece of chicken and two sides for $18.99 and complete order for $22.00 which the chicken looked like it was boiled in adobo and placed in the oven to keep warm. The Mac and cheese was bland and cold. The mix greens with cabbage was bland too. So disappointed with this one. So I’m going to ask Allah to bless the hands that cook in the future. Ameen !!!!!!

Hailing from the south, I make it a point to find African American Soul Food restaurants when visiting other states. This one was impressive. The fried chicken was outstanding. Newark, you have my appreciation.

Good food. Service is terrrrrrrrible. I understand hard long days… i understand not being in the best of moods.. but this SERVICE here baaaaaaby NO! Literally been coming here for 5 years… ordering or dine in. Just terrible! Food is almost like your home cooked so no complaints. But Damn the attitude, I’m sorry to say they lost a customer, because I liked the food

★★★★★ 5.0 LaKendra Huckaby · Mar 2017

This place was AMAZING!! Today was my first going and I definitely will be returning. Let me start with the fact that the service was so friendly! Everyone was very kind and attentive to my boyfriend and I from the moment we walked in the door. He got the chicken and waffles and I got the chicken dinner. The portions are very nicely sized and the fact two people can eat there for under $30 shows just how affordable it is!. Our food was excellent! Which says a lot because I'm from the South and am always disappointed when attending 'soul food' restaurants. Not here!! I felt like I was eating my mother's home cooked Sunday dinner! I left satisfied, very satisfied, and the only thing they were missing was a bed for me to take a nap after finishing my entire plate. Please go experience this lo
