“ We ordered several different dishes so we could mix and match our dinner. Had the oxtail, beef ribs, and turkey wings for our meats. For the sides, we had mac n cheese, cabbage, potato salad, and white rice. All the meats were delicious, very different taste than what I'm used to and I loved it. The ribs sauce had a sweetness to it. I didn't enjoy the cabbage or potato salad, which is why I gave a 4. but the mac n cheese was amazing. The ladies at the counter were super nice and welcoming. ”

“ This is a small quaint restaurant that has delicious soul food that is hot and ready. I came here for take-out and just found it by searching for a soul food spot in the downtown Brooklyn area and it did not disappoint! They had a hot food section where you can choose from a variety of meats including curry goat, jerk chicken, baked chicken and stews. The sweet potatoes were so perfectly made, they reminded me of my childhood. The Mac and cheese was extra cheesy and unlike any other soul food restaurant I've ever been to because it was moist! I also ordered string beans and the meal came with a bread that looked like banana bread. I am definitely coming here again and it will be my go to place from now on. This small restaurant is cash only but there is an ATM outside. ”

“ The soul spot is by far the BEST SOUL FOOD/carribean I have ever tasted. I have ordered from them several times for big orders at work and the food is always amazing. Even with big orders the authentic flavor is not lost. I would highly highly recommend this place for dinner. ”

“ The only thing that stop this from getting a 5 star was the price. $18-20 for this and a drink is too high but I guess since its located downtown brooklyn, its comparable to nearby prices. Service was great. Ladies behind the counter were very welcoming and nice ! Food, super heft and super delicious. This is Black American Soul Food. Not Caribbean or anything else FYI. The food was delicious, I got the ribs which were smothered and taste better than oxtails. The mac n cheese was mac n cheesing + with gravy from ribs yummm Green was calm I wish it had some hamhocks or turkey legs in it ! Small restaurants about 3 tables and chair for those who want to sit down and eat ”

“ Im visiting from Indy and I tried this place based in a recommendation from a complete stranger a while ago. It just so happens that was a few blocks from where Im staying. I had the fried chicken, greens and sweet potatoes and it was delicious! The staff was friendly and offered me an extra corn bread because I mentioned that I was splitting the meal with someone else. Unfortunately I don't visit NY often but I will definitely stop here again in the future. ”

“ Deliciousness, a hefty meal at that, all for a great price. So happy when I found out there was a HALAL option for soul food Love everything we tried here, and want to come back more to try other meat dishes and sides. The only issue is that it is soooo filling you literally need to come with an empty stomach or else u got leftovers for days. Every meal comes with a free small slice of cornbread (it's alright but hey it's not the star of the show). The Mac and cheese here tho y'all?? Soooo good. I need a whole container of just that. Jollof rice is great too, all the spices come together in perfect balance, just wish the rice was a tad bit softer, felt a bit cold. Yams were good, but wish there was a little less of it and more of the Mac and cheese as it can get you full very quickly. Ribs were excellent, not too much bone, and also the meat was so tender it was literally falling off. The gravy from the ribs mixed with the sides is sooo good. The jerk chicken is the spiciest meat option they have and it's not actually spicy but really good nonetheless. A bit dry so wish they had some kind of sauce that comes with it. They also sell desserts (which we didn't get to try) and drinks ($2 each - lemonade, a punch?, and sweet tea). Lemonade (freshly squeezed) was a bit too tart for me, I usually like it sweeter, but good regardless. Staff here are very accommodating and friendly and helped us choose what to order Lots of people constantly coming and going (that's how you know it's good) and also heard that a couple of the patrons coming in were regulars (and that was just within the hour or so we were there!). It's mostly a get your food and go kinda spot but there's 2 small tables inside and some smaller tables and chairs outside if you wish to dine in. Great establishment and so happy to see more diversity in halal options (you chicken and burger shops I'm looking at you) ”

“ One of my favorite soul food spots in NYC period. Food is always hot and fresh and portion sizes are great. I wish there was more seating to be able to enjoy the food right away though, maybe they'll expand one day. ”

“ Yes yes yes yes yes. I visited this place twice in the span of 2 days while visiting New York. The food was fresh and hot on the line. From what I sampled the yams, jerk chicken, oxtail, rice and peas, and cornbread were all delicious. I wouldn't recommend the collard greens as they look like they are straight from the can. The service I received was that of southern hospitality. The worker offered to let me sample the products until I was satisfied with what I tasted. She even gave me an extra piece of cornbread! I will definitely be visiting this place when I return to New York. $15 for a plate is a steal! ”
