Big Al’s is one of the few authentic soul food spots on the Island. I ordered through Uber Eats, and the pickup process was smooth for the courier. The food was packed well and showed up still very hot. The ribs were super tender and fell right off the bone. They had this good mix of barbecue and peppery flavor. The wings had a nice little crisp to them too, not super crunchy, but not greasy either. Some hot sauce would have made them perfect, but they were still solid on their own. The yams w

I love mother’s seafood. I always buy the fish so i wanted to try something different and get the jerk chicken, garlic mashed potatoes, Mac and cheese. The food was good. The chicken was on the spicy side but it was cooked really well. The Mac and cheese i always love. The only issue was the mashed potatoes. They were very soft and watery. I did not like it at all.

I grew up with Mr.Q’s! Solid flavors. The drinks are good for the price. The fried food is crispy and savory. I’m surprised by the low reviews. It does a feel a bit too pricy when everything gets calculated and sometimes the service is bad.

I visited this restaurant last Sunday at approximately 4:00 p.m. to pick up two chicken takeout orders, and unfortunately, my experience was extremely disappointing. Upon arrival, I sat at the bar waiting for my order and was completely ignored for an extended period of time. No one asked if I needed assistance or provided an update on my order. After repeatedly being told that my food was "coming soon," I continued to wait. It wasn't until Chris, a waiter, finally acknowledged me and asked if

Jazz club in the heart of Harlem, one of the few remaining Jazz venues that is worth checking. Went on Saturday night with friends and we had great time. The musicians were talented and the singer was engaging with the audience and entertaining. Food was average (buffet) and the venue is a bit old that needs some update on decor, it felt that it was abandoned for sometime and they just moved in. They have pen and paper style, you book online through email, but they accept cards. GRATITUDE includ

To start I’m not one to write a review or bash a business, but today after after receiving the food I did for the amount of money I did not even worth it. The mac & cheese was bland and dry, when asked how long for new mac & cheese was given a fast answer of they just threw it in and it’s gonna be 45 minutes. I work in the kitchen. I can tell that’s a lie. They close in an hour and a half. They were putting on more mac & cheese. I ordered a Rasta pasta with lamb chops. I don’t mind paying 35 $40

I usually enjoy these skewers from a street-corner cart, but during our team meeting I was invited to try Chili Tavern BBQ. The place is quite tight and narrow, so it’s not ideal for large groups. The skewers are seasoned well, and if you want an extra kick, they provide a bottle of chili powder at the table. Service was just okay. Overall, it’s a decent spot for skewers if you don’t mind the cramped space and pricey skewers.

Warning: A real review! I can't believe what I had last night, this place needs to be out of business with the trash they selling. The garbage is where my food landed. I got fried chicken with yams and mac cheese. The macaroni looks like plastic and taste like rotten milk and cheese. Yuck. The yams taste funky, not fresh. The only thing edible is the chicken, flavorless but salvageable after being dunked in hot sauce. Thank god I didn't wake up sick after eating a bite of that spoiled food. I

I wanted to orser something different so got the BBQ ribs, yellow rice and corn. I like that they offer two sides. The corn was bland along with the rice. The ribs was pretty soft. The food overall was okay.
