Smh so tonight I ordered shrimps & fries I get home it's fish. I take it back tell her it's wrong I want shrimp she constantly repeats "fish" I'm saying "No I want shrimp." She says "Ok". I'm starvin at this point so she brings it out bagged up.. Lmmfao now I'm staring at a extra thing of fish 1 being in a dirty tray. I used to eat here faithfully since it was on Fulton street I tried it back in February it didn't work out so I thought this would have been the redeemer but nope.
Took my mom here her old friend owns the place. She loved the food. Only downfall is they only accept cash, and our food came up to $80. Was inconvenienced but using the ATM. Not too many people carry cash.

SAVE YOUR MONEY! This place used to be decent but it is now OVERPRICED and the food is not that good. I just paid $20 for 3 legs of fried chicken, a side of Mac and cheese and a side of potato salad. I think they're on their last leg! Not many choices to choose from and hardly any patronage

For the amount of money spent I would think the food would be better. The collard greens were so salty to the point I could not eat them and they also tasted like they used smoked pork even though they said it had smoked turkey. Mac and cheese was bland. Oxtails were not bad but fir $25.00 I expected more in the plate. The yams were the only thing that was good

This is a hit or miss spot; take it from a NC native ; this is a New York version of NC soul food. Today was the last time I eat this slop. #1. Ribs were tough & as a NC native folks in Kingston know that BBQ is a NC speciality that requires slow aka 4-6hrs & low cooking temperature aka no more than 225 degrees & ribs especially “pork” ribs must to be cooked bone side up. I almost feel like I need a job here to help them get back to the taste the owner built his representation on. The Mac & cheese was a negative 10 on a scale of 1-10 aka it was bland barley no cheese & it tasted like it only had cheap mild cheddar; Mac & cheese is all about quality cheese. The greens were a complete shame ; tasted like water ; they might as well serve Glory greens they taste better. We spent $60+ for three meals only to end up throwing the food out. In NYC you can sell a lower quality of food but in NC this spot wouldn’t last a month with the way the quality keeps going down tear after year while the prices keep going up. When the OWNER is there the food is always right & he does NOT over charge ppl. To top it all off they sold us expired soda that expired in Oct 2021. Checking inventory weekly is key to ensure quality; first in & first out isn’t rocket science. And lastly the whiting fish was absolutely horrible. Xcellent Seafood located at Ralph Avenue has whiting that puts this spot fish to shame & they are proudly West Indian but the quality is definitely Southern. Lesson learned : cook my own soul food it cost less. And lastly the ladies that work here with the exception of the young lady are a complete disgrace to Southern Hospitality ; entirely too aggressive & loud. I truly miss the Old Seafood Caterers when the OWNER ACTUALLY COOKED THE FOOD. If my financial year goes as planned I’m going to support the opening of their competition because I’m tired of NYC versions of Soul Food. Can BK get at least one authentic soul food restaurant?. This food maybe ok for New Yorkers but Southerns know this food is worthy of the trash.

Bought a piece of cake a 3 hours ago and noticed too late (took 2 bites) that the cake IS MOLDY!! I was not able to rate this lower than a 1 star and I would have but Google would not let me. Where is the quality control and the respect for customers. ???????????? SMH ..... just SMH .....

So so so good. The food SLAPS it's so good. The fried shrimp had this amazing seasoning and the Mac and cheese was gooey and delicious. I'll definitely be coming back for more!

I absolutely love this place. The food is fresh and down home delicious. The employees are cool and you definitely get your money's worth here with the portions as well. We recently used them to cater for 250 people, and the food was great and held the same quality.
