“(EXCUSE MY CAMERA)..THIS WAS FROM OCT 28, 2024… VERY FRESH, VERY DELICIOUS WELL SEASONED FOOD!!! I HAD THE 10 WING DINGS WITH MAC & CHEESE & COLLARDS…. THE CHICKEN WAS IN A SWEET THAI CHILI SAUCE THAT WASN’T DRENCHED IN SAUCE, YET HAD THE RIGHT AMOUNT…. THE MAC & CHEESE & COLLARDS TASTED LIKE HOME!!!…. THIS WAS REAL COMFORT FOOD THAT WASN’T SKIMPED ON OR LACKING!!!… AS A MATTER OF FACT, I’M ORDERING AGAIN TONIGHT!!!… I HAD ENOUGH FOR TWO DAYS UNTIL MY GREEDY GRANDSON CAME THE NEXT DAY & SAID, ‘NA NA, WHAT’S IN THE PLATTER?… CAN I HAVE SOME?’…. THERE WENT MY NEXT DAY’S DINNER!!!.. BUT DON’T WORRY, I’M ORDERING AGAIN TONIGHT & WILL HIDE IT!!!’??. BUT ORDER YOURS, REALLY GOOD FOOD!!!!??. (NICE LADY, I PRESUME OWNER WHO ANSWERS THE PHONE!!!)“

“Came in to town ordered take out , our first time eating there, food was very good especially the mac and cheese and fried fish, my only complaint, i ordered just the fish and no sides i was told i get 3 pieces of fish, i only got all the way home and it was 2 lil pieces of small fish, it was good though but i paid $20 for that? i also had the turkey wing platter it was good but i can’t stand eating big turkey wings that look like they was injected with something , them was some big ole turkey wings. had to trash one. My fiancé got the wing dings and fries he said the wings was pretty good.“

“This food was so bomb and the owner so hospitable. They actually had all the soul foods I enjoy available and after 10pm like whaaa ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Delicious 🤤 😋 😊! Everything was wonderful and delicious. I highly recommend this great eatery.“

“Yesterday was my first time coming here and when I say everything exceeded my expectations! The salmon rolls ? babyyyy they were the best! I was going to go back today for more but they’re closed, so I’ll be back Sunday! The food was made with love and care and you can tell! That’s so hard to find in Philly nowadays. The crab cakes were delicious too! The service was amazing as well. I was in the car eating and the chef still checked to see if I enjoyed the food. 10/10 recommend. I hope she takes over the city with her food because it’s definitely needed. Thank you for adding this gem to the city?“

“Food was excellent ! Enjoyed the band ! I had awesome time.“

“I ordered fish, wings, mac & cheese and sweet potatoes. I say YUMMY. 😋 Thank you for the delicious food.“

“Some of the best Chicken and Waffles I have had. Went there on Sunday. A great jazz outfit was playing. Awesome spot.“

“I had the turkey wings with gravy, yams, and collard greens. The turkey wings were good, but the collard green was a little bit salted for my taste. The yams that I had were not potato but looked to be mash.
Overall, I enjoyed the meal. Maybe the next time things will be much different.“

“Best in the city ������������������“

“Had this young lady cater a party for my daughter’s birthday back in MARCH but I didn’t know I could leave a review so here I am now EVERYTHING was absolutely amazing, my daughter’s favorite part was the taco bar ! I will be going back for future events for real !! Good job Amina

“I didn't get to taste the food because one of her workers had a bad attitude. When dealing with the public professionalism is a must. I could have referred a lot of people that don't know it's there. Your tea was very good and I hope your service gets better. A vegetarian platter would be nice also.“

“Lovely sweet people.

Food is good.

Service is partially slow, but you can't rush good food.

Items that I had baked turkey wings (, mac n cheese, sweet potatoes, mashed potatoes with gravy, and dressing. All were good. They need to serve a bread. My bestfriend had the fried fish and it was soooo good. I wouldn't recommend the greens...they were missing something besides hot sauce.

Great to see a black owned and operated place thriving. Im from Indiana and I will be back.

Tips: It's a takeout kind of spot...there's 2 tables, but not much room. They take cards. Not much parking“

“If I could give 6 stars for service I would. I ordered to the wrong location and without any hesitation they just made my meal on the spot at the one I showed up to. Also the food is great so would definitely recommend this place if you want good food from good people.“

“Crab balls are my fav baked Mac creamy & made to perfection whenever I feel the need for fried shrimp this is my go to sweet chili & garlic parm is the top tier .. fried chicken seasoned well and fried perfect & B is the sweetest I love him his workers are always respectful definitely five star for me ❤️ I have never had an issue coming here“

“This place was awesome. Best ribs in town. I highly recommend their food.“

“I'm a SERIOUS fan of Tay's Soul Food! The fried Whiting and mac and cheese are OFF THE HOOK! The yams and string beans are perfection! I call ahead and pull up. Easy contactless pickup during the pandemic! Give her a call if you want some soul food but don't feel like cooking. *Only thing is, you need to pay cash in the exact amount if you don't use apple ipay.“

“So yummy! Fast and delicious food with really nice staff! Would definitely buy again!“

“First time ever at Carlettes hideaway. Sistahs In Transformation met there and I'm glad 😊 to be apart of these group of ladies. The food was absolutely delicious 😋 OMG I couldn't believe it. I will visit very soon shemasmiles“

“I took 2 bites out of the Mac n cheese. Instantly picked my phone up and had to leave a review. This is Sunday afternoon grandma back in the day Mac and cheese. I haven’t bought Mac from a restaurant that was actually good in at least 20 years. Moved over to the wings and broccoli. Bruh. New customer . See yall soon lol“

Fresh!! A plus!!! !! That’s the best , because you wouldn’t think ? at a bar you’ll get this type of food … can I say diamond in the rough !?????.. Y’all can find them At Nickels Traven ???

“The food here is really good. I had fried chicken wings. They were literally the best wings I've had in a long time. They came out so hot. My group enjoyed their food. We had a lot of stuff and everyone said everything was really good. The only thing someone in my group was disappointed with was the buffalo dip.. they wanted more. Definitely will be going back.
The beignets are AMAZING!!
It's a little small but it works.“

“DeBreaux's has been an icon in the community for more than 26 years. The food is tantalizing to the tongue and the desserts remind you of sweet ambrosia, food of the gods. If you're ever in Philadelphia, Pa near 63rd & City Line; The Overbrook Train Station, stop in and be amazed!

Vegetarian options: Mac & Cheese, String Beans, Candied Sweets, Potato Salad, Tan's Crazy Rice, Broccoli, Corn Bread, Collard Greens, Cabbage, Crab Cakes, Jumbo Shrimp and plenty more!“

“BEST SOUL FOOD IN PHILLY !!! the entire menu is so mfn fire and the prices are extremely reasonable. Portions do not disappoint and flavors are ideal. I grew up in the south and have tried soul food around Philly and have repeatedly been disappointed until I found soul boat. I was apprehensive at first as it is owned by an asian family but they’re cooking is VALID and could put a lot of y’all’s aunties and grandmas to shame ?? the fried fish is so fresh and the gravy is drinkable. I recommend soul boat whole heartedly“

“I drove past this spot a few months ago and finally gave them a try. Omg the food was good down to the bone!!! I had turkey wings, mac, and, potaoe salad and cabbage. The gentleman at the front, was so nice and the wait was not bad at all!!! The prices are so reasonable I can't wait to try their other items.“

“great food best in philadelphia area. very professional“

“Beautiful souls, making beautiful food! 😋😋😋“

“BEST FOOD IN TOWN STAFF IS WONDERFUL“

“Keeboom's has amazing food. This is a soul food spot where no additional seasoning needs to be added to your food. The food portions are on point. My platter had some weight. The service and atmosphere are not rate-worthy, since you're served out of a window on the side of the building. There is no building access to rate the atmosphere. I will say the area outside the building was trash and debris-free. Once again, the food is amazing and I would highly recommend Keeboom's to anyone who enjoys seasoned food!!!“

“Me and my husband was on a inventory run for our soul food restaurant located in Johnstown pa we literally Rode by this spot my husband said make a u turn when he went in for a menu he was instantly excited to see it was black owned business after calling me into the restaurant the owner greatly blessed us with a seafood salad potato salad & this blue juice omg the best highly recommended this spot great customer service food smells so good in you can tell it’s cooked with LOVE…..“

“5 star experience and service. I was very excited to come to this black owned restaurant in Philadelphia. It was me and my partner 2 year anniversary so we thought we would enjoy the live Jazz show as well. As soon as we walked it we were greeted with by warm smiling faces which made us feel very welcome. The ambience was amazing and decor was very unique We arrive about 30 minutes before the show and headed over to the bar to grab a drink before the show , the cocktails were very good and the bartender was very friendly and attentive. The bar is very small , all the seats were taken so we had to stand. Once we were seated in the jazz lounge area by our waiter he suggested somethings and went over the specials. We started off with the devil eggs and cornbread. For our entrees I had the Fried Chicken and my partner had the prime rib. Everything came out quickly and at the perfect temperature. The manager, host, waiter, and the band were phenomenal. They were even nice enough to give us a shout out and complementary dessert for our anniversary. I would definitely recommend this restaurant to everyone. The hospitality here is exceptional.“

“The servings are generous at Tastie's. There is something for everyone on the menu. Great community events throughout the year. I ❤️.“

“Beat Ribs and Sides in the city.“

“Came to Philly for visit. A friend served us some food from Crafty Soul food. Damn that stuff was good. The next day I ordered the same meal of fish platter and shrimp platter with greens and Mac/cheese. Also got extra sweet potatoes. The only thing missing was cornbread. This place will be on the top of my list when visit again.“

“I was referred by family to give it a play! I must say we will be back, Our new spot!!! ? Fried chicken wing platter with greens delicious ? the Mac& cheese was ok. But baby ? the fried whiting's was everything! And the banana pudding ? ? Will be back! Thanks Big Boys!“

“I’m late but my family and I ordered catering food from Just To Serve You first time for my Aunt’s repast and everything was delicious, which we only ordered the side dishes. Then we ordered again for Easter, this time we had catfish, greens, mac and cheese and yams and again, everything was delicious. Just To Serve You will now be our place when we don’t feel like cooking for a lot of people.“

“Everything that I’ve tried this far has been excellent!!!! Haven’t had good soul food in a while and this was definitely good soul food. I hope they start serving fish and grits or shrimp and grits too.“

“Woodbury has had so much growth over last 10 years its exciting to see the changes and fun to be a part of“
