★★★☆☆ 3.0 Brooklyn 1 · Mar 2026

I went in for take out while I waited I sat at the counter the entire staff was very friendly and welcoming . The catfish and whiting small but very good . The mac & cheese and the yams were just ok. The collard greens , potato salad , sweet potato pie , pound cake and the Rasta pasta wasn’t good to me. The Rasta pasta had no sauce at all .

I celebrated my birthday at Nettie’s in the morning with a group of five, and even though we didn’t have a reservation, they were incredibly kind and accommodating. They made it happen for us without hesitation, which already set the tone for the whole experience. We all ordered different dishes (because that’s what family does), and of course we sampled each other’s plates. Let me just say — that cornbread is absolutely delicious. A must-order. The sweet tea? Perfectly sweet, exactly how sweet tea is supposed to be. The wings were seasoned beautifully and packed with flavor. The yams and mac and cheese were so good — true comfort food. My family ordered the grits and said they were made wonderfully. And my wife is very particular about her grits, so that alone is a testimony. My dad go

I haven"t had GRITS in over 50 years, but the delightful waitress said, "They have the BEST"! With that I ask for a small taste before I ordered. They good but I have nothing to compare them to. The fish and shrimp were outstanding. I was also given a taste of the lunch special which was mmm mmm good. This was a nice little but cozy location with that down home feeling. I'll be back soon to try more dishes and some Monday night music. This place is MUST TRY!

BEST SOUL FOOD IN JERSEY!! THE RASTA PASTA WAS AMAZINGGG!! My first time coming and definitely won’t be my last! The customer service was also amazing, it’s a family owned business. If you ever want a sweet treat and you like a good homemade lemonade then you MUST try it!
