La Verdad Cafe Smok’n Soul food bbq

Never left restaurant reviews before but going out of my way for this one. It’s real soul food when you can taste the soul in the food. Amazing smoking brisket and super cheesy Mac and cheese. That house special sauce is to die for. And the black eye peas? Absolutely delicious! We were offered 3-4 samples on top of our meal. The portion is extremely generous and the staff and owner were the sweetest and most hospitable people I’ve ever met in any restaurant. We came for a day trip from Canada and stumbled upon this place but we will definitely return. May God bless this business!

there were no arrows or signs in the parking lot to even tell you where the restaurant is, we had to ask someone because it's not even visible from the parking lot, it's all the way in the back, hidden away. When you open the door to the building there is a musty smell, but the area where the tables were to eat inside was clean and the atmosphere was nice. We arrived right at 4:00 p.m. when they opened, we were the only people there, and our food was not ready until 50 minutes later!! My friend had the chicken and he said it was really great. He did not care for the kale slaw. I ordered the brisket burnt ends and the gouda macaroni and cheese topped with ribs. The burnt ends were tender, but not particularly flavorful, just mediocre. The rib meat on top of the macaroni and cheese was de

I’m not one to take the time to leave reviews often, if ever, but after my experience today I had to take a moment and share my experience… We had never been to La Verdad (honestly until yesterday I had never heard of it) but we decided to give it a try today I am a foodie and have had BBQ/soul food in a dozen states + Canada in my years and this is without a doubt some of the BEST BBQ I have ever had in my life. The ribs were tender and flavorful, in fact they fell off the bone. The Mac & cheese is real deal, creamy and flavorful, no kraft here. Everything is home made and absolutely delicious. You will wait for your food, the vibe is very much home style/family operation, but that is the only remotely negative thing I could add about my experience The food is 10/10 and I will 100% be

This place deserves 5 stars. Hands down nicest place, in staff and food by miles. Super allergy friendy. The best brisket I've had NY and east in over 15 years. The flavors are amazing, all the sides are made without the typical crutches and made with real ingredients and amazing spices. Fair prices for the quality. Dog lovers <3

Very nice service! Kind and courteous and explained their menu. I got the Mac and cheese bowl with brisket and banana peppers and the smoked bourbon bbq sauce! Delicious! I will be back! Only tiny downside is trying to find parking, you might have to walk a block or so
