Soul Food Restaurants near Kenilworth, NJ

“Excellent spot I’d recommend it to anyone I’ll be returning again“

“Kawana and Natorie provided outstanding service and was very welcoming when entering the restaurant. Kawana made sure that my food was fresh. I would come here again.“

“This place is excellent. I bought my friend from Japan with his family and was happy to take them to Cornbread for some authentic soul food. Needless to say my friend and his family loved the experience. They were finishing a road trip throughout the US and they thought the food at Cornbread was some of the best they had in their month long journery. The turkey wings were particularly good and I'm saying this as a person who is mostly vegetarian. Service was also excellent with attentive help and the servers were conversational and friendly with my friends and I. Bathrooms were also very clean. I wholeheartedly recommend Cornbread Montclair as a solid business and a great place for delicious Soul Food.“

“The food and service at Tasha’s is great! My husband loves her food he won’t even let me cook him oxtails. He has had us try so many dishes and we are delighted everytime. The portions are large enough to eat a 2nd 3rd time depending on your appetite. There’s always dessert selections fresh in the fridge. And Tasha along with the family friendly staff are pleasant and welcoming. Now she sells her Oxtail Rub so you can try your hand at it. Overall I give Tasha 5 plus stars. Go see for yourself you won’t be disappointed…“

“JS Soul Food (Orange, NJ) is a true gem! Our group of 10 visitors from Canada stopped by, and we were absolutely impressed.

The food was perfect — especially the fresh, made-to-order omelets and a unique millet porridge prepared with a special house recipe. Everything was delicious and beautifully done. The interior is welcoming, the place is spotless, and the service was outstanding — warm, attentive, and professional.

We will definitely be back and highly recommend this wonderful place to anyone visiting Orange, NJ!“

“I took food to my job and they loved I brought a pan of yellow rice cabbage and a $20 pan of potato salad and took it to my job cause we had a birthday party for a coworker. They loved the food they never had it before I live in South Amboy but I’m from Newark work in Matawan at the nursing home, and they never had the flu before they loved it. Good job, kings.“

“The food was very delicious and well prepared. The rice was perfectly cooked, flavorful, and fresh. The salad tasted great, fresh and well seasoned, and the fries were crispy and delicious. The portion size was good, the presentation was clean, and the service was fast.
I highly recommend this place ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ The place is clean and beautiful, with a very welcoming atmosphere. The staff is friendly and professional, and the service was fast and efficient.“

“I like their wings,cakes,cabbage, beef sausage egg & cheese, and smoothies. I don't like the potato salad, macaroni salad was too sweet for me. Mac&cheese didn't have the flavor I was expecting although the texture was there.“

“Chef Monique & her team provide a culinary experience for your soul! The food we catered (Mac & cheese, greens & cabbage mix, along with jerk salmon) were all delicious with the perfect amount of heat. The dishes were beautifully presented for us upon pick-up to warm easily for our gathering with specific warming instructions to prevent drying out. Our family appreciated the hands that prepared our feast. Chef Mo goes out of her way to make sure details are met with a smile! I would highly recommend everything on the menu.
Thanks Chef Mo & your Team! 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽“
