I love this soul food restaurant and will look no further. It’s my 2nd time eating here and the food is amazing. The cook/owner John is such a sweet heart. I struggle with emotional illness and were having a moment today. John took the time to talk to me, offered me some wine and made me feel so optimistic and ready to tackle life. He had no idea how much better he made me feel. I did a root canal yesterday and expressed to John I had not eaten all day. He cooked my fish platter soft as he promised and I was able to finally eat. I wish John and his business the best of luck. Please support this black owned business!
I recently enjoyed lunch at this restaurant with my 5-year-old child. The catfish dish was fantastic, and the macaroni and cheese with soul cauliflower sides were also delicious. The restaurant has a spacious interior and plays a great soundtrack of classic soul and R&B music, which alone deserves five stars. The service was friendly, although the food did take a bit of time to be served. Overall, I would definitely recommend checking out this restaurant if you're in East Orange, and it's worth making a trip even if you're in the surrounding areas.
My friend I had been wanting to try this place for a while, but we never seemed to catch them when they were open. One day a few weeks ago, we randomly drove past 5 minutes before close. I pulled over we ran inside. While the kitchen was already closed, the staff graciously agreed to fire up the kitchen prepared us what they had on hand. We had the chicken fish platters an assortment of sides mac cheese, collard greens, yams and cornbread. Thank you Mark for accommodating us! We'll definitely be back for a proper sit down dinner.
