“Good soul food. I had the catfish and two piece breast and wing. I've had better potato salad, won't be getting that anymore. Yams, mac & cheese and cabbage was good. Yellow rice is nothing special. It tastes like Goya yellow rice. I don't eat cornbread but theirs was AMAZING. Overall it was good.“

“So glad to be able to eat out without wondering if my card & food us being tampered with. We gotvthis referral from a friend..the Gilliams..So glad we had mentioned going out to eat. Its a small but place that hold up to 24 in the front but their back room appears to hold another 24 equipped with 2 long tables. The host was very warm & nice. They had a guest that was waiting for his food & it looked delicious when delivered...Fried fish & potatoesalad...It was a quiet night not a lot going on just the game playing & staff. Food came not a long wait but that was ok because my husband wanted his Catfish hot and it was with a really light fluffy waffle. I had the Turkeywings, lima beans, mac& cheese. cornbread. Waiter did allow hubby to same bleackeyepeas & Lima beans and he really enjoyed that. We look forward tovreturning.. Our host was able to give us a tour & Back history as to how of this came about..So happy for them with balancing out life which can be hard at times..But Jeh makes makes it possible when you take him into consideration of any plans...Hope to see you all soon with many more friends...“

“I live in Pennsylvania, but my friends ordered from here and now I'll drive all the way back, 80+ miles one way just to get this food. I've had so many different kinds, but this is the best place I've ever had food from. Obviously, we didn't try everything, but they're so super nice and the dumplings with that sauce omgosh can I please buy that in a bottle?Never usually liked those sauces, but it's banging!!!! I'd put that up against any other sauce. Super sweet and the soup damn I'm so hungry. Overall everything we ordered was the best we've ever had. We're nj and ny born and raised, but this place is legit. You will thank everyone who mentioned it. Best place ever, thank you so much for giving us our new spot. Even though it's that far away. I love your food and how nice and sweet everyone is. More than 5 stars best food and service! Not sure about the atmosphere, but the food is so good it doesn't even matter to me tbh. Thank you Ed and Michele.“

“This was my first time at Kings and it won’t be my last. I ordered takeout earlier today and Angela was so friendly and welcoming. I’ve never had smothered turkey chops before. They were UH-MAZE-ING!!! The catfish was nicely seasoned and the fried chicken was crispy and juicy. The potato salad was the best I’ve ever had except for my mama’s. And I can’t stop eating that pineapple coconut cake.“

“Been in jersey for 7 years now. And I finally finally finally found a really great soul food spot. I got Mac n cheese collard greens and fried chicken. Yes the food is amazingly delicious you will not be disappointed. Oh and if you looking for ya meal to come out fast go some place else. Cause they make sure everything is fresh, you don't get fried chicken that sits under the hot light all day. You get fresh out the oil chicken..“

“For starters, let me just state that this was my first time ever eating African food. I had okra, white rice, and debie. This eatery was highly recommended by a friend, and it was delicious. However, the person cooking was really unpleasant when I returned alone one day, and I nearly decided not to return even though I was really craving it. I returned to give it one last try, and I'm glad I did because I visit this place nearly every week. The individual I interacted with during this interaction was really kind and supportive. I haven't tried anything else on the menu, but the white rice and okra combination is AMAZING. The best part is that there is a lot of food and it is quite reasonably priced.“

“I went with a diverse party of 10 and we were treated like we were at home. Excellent halal soul food, felt like down home southern cooking. I don't think there's a place representing soul food culture like this in Philadelphia or New York City. Staff and owner were extremely warm and accommodating. Generous and tasty portions. Highly recommend.“
