We met some friends that live in the area for lunch here. This was some of the best soul food I've had in quite a while. Everything was great. & I even spent the money to say I ordered Grape Koolaid from a restaurant.. lol Seriously, this a must eat at when checking out Harlem in Manhattan NYC. more

I have heard nothing but good things about this restaurant. We went early on a Sunday afternoon and the restaurant was crowded. Still, we sat right away, the service was very good.

The food was alright. It really depends on what day you go. i normally get the fried chicken and waffles because i am afraid to try anything else. the service is not the best. If you want home style southern cuisine either make it yourself or you have to know someone who can really cook. more

This was my first taste of Soul Food and if this is one of the best examples of it I won't be eating it again. I had Waffles and fried Chicken. The food didn't taste of anything but sugar and fat. The Ice Tea was so sweet it was undrinkable. I didn't know what to expect but I at least... more
