(Original: Pretty expensive for such small portions and mediocre food. Might have to bring out the scale, doubt it’s 10oz of meat.)“

The staff was very friendly. I was seated by the door waiting for my order, and the young lady who took my order (Jessica) brought my order to me. She was very polite and friendly. I have been here many times, but this was a first. Thank you Jessica.“

“Clean, bright, and good vibes all around. A great spot to chill and enjoy some spicy food. Laid-back atmosphere with good music and a welcoming feel. The chicken was perfectly crispy and juicy—easily some of the best Nashville-style hot chicken I’ve had!“

“Surprisingly Fabulous service , the establishment left a bright and impactful impression on my mood. Had a wonderful chat and wait with the charming and cheerful blue haired employee Janalis, she was the highlight. The food service and timing was great and the lemonade is some of the best i’ve ever had“

“I love the chicken and fries. I wish they delivered to Belleville. I would order more if they did.“

“I’ve been going here since 2019 and have never once had a bad experience or felt disappointed with the food. The owners are very humble and down to earth people and treat you like family. The chicken fries are probably my #1 favorite thing on the menu. The quality of the chicken and sandwiches are top tier. If you’ve ever had a bad experience here or didn’t think the food was up to your standards, please talk to the owners. I know they’ll make it right.“

“Great taste clean place great service Recommended it“

“I ordered Chicken Biryani and Chicken Kabab through Uber Eats. After I ordered , I realized that I forgot to order Nan. So I called the restaurant and ask them that what can I do now. The person(probably the owner) replied , I will add Nan and whenever you visit, give me 2 Dollars. That was really a nice gesture which I will remember and must appreciate(along with the debt on me).
Talking about food, I had eaten many Biryanis in USA but it is one of the best real Pakistani biryani. Kababs were also fresh and tasty. I highly recommend those who want to have Halal and real Pakistani taste, must visit.“

“Stopped by Jollibee Newark and had such a pleasant experience! The staff were friendly and efficient, and the manager went above and beyond to make sure we were taken care of. You can really tell they care about their customers. The food was great as always — hot, tasty, and exactly what I was craving. Highly recommend this location!“

“friendly peoples like the food clean restaurant“

“The food was amazing and surprisingly cheap i recommend the jumbo shrimp and wedges as sides it hits every time crispy on the outside soft in the inside. Their breakfast is very good as well i recommend asking for a omelette even tho it isn’t on the menu.“

“Been coming here for a while now and the food has been amazing. The fried chicken is one of the best I’ve had in all of the east coast. They also just got BBQ Ribs and Oxtails. And they are heavenly, and full of flavors. Feels like im in a Jamaican/fried chicken cuisine. Best of both worlds.“

“The Gyros here are amazing. I'm not sure what they're doing with their pizza dough, but the crust is probably the best I've ever tasted, and the food is reasonably priced as well. All the guys behind the counter are friendly and patient. It's 24 hours so show up whenever you're hungry and they'll have something ready for you.“

“Hidden gem! The food is simple fast food with a lot of variety and better ingredients than actual fast food. I don't recall if there was seating but it's a smaller place so I take my food to go. If there's anything to improve, I'd say using even better ingredients somehow but that could be too expensive or maybe updating the interior for a better atmosphere. Only negative I've encountered is that the fries weren't too crispy but that could just be for me. Personally I think it's still 5 stars! I got the chicken gyro. Affordable, delicious, and good quality food with friendly and kind staff! Thanks for the meal! 🙏❤️“

“It was my first time eating from chick-fil-A. It was unbelievably delicious, the chicken sandwich, waffles fries and salads were so fresh. I will recommend everyone to try it. The staff were so friendly and helpful. I will definitely go there again. Love ... Rose 🌹“

“I’ve been twice so far and the customer service is immaculate! The food is delicious and seasoned nicely. It’s great for a quick stop to pick up lunch and dinner. It’s even better for a romantic date night! The music and ambiance is perfect for whatever occasion.“

“A nice twist on a classic fast food. Fried chicken meal with coleslaw and plantains was delicious. The drink options are delicious, tried the hibiscus & the mango tea flavors. Dinner was ready in just a few minutes. No coming and no cleanup! Would go back again.“

“when I call this spot, I don’t even gotta explain. They hear my voice and be like “Yup, that’s him…hit him with the usual, he ’bout to tear this cheesesteak up.” The dude up front chill as hell I think his name Muhammad or something like that but I call him ocky. Best cheesesteaks in linden and I been to all of them.“

“Food was really good, and our server, Jimmy P, was amazing and very friendly. Everything was beyond our expectations! Keep in mind though that the spicy options are really, REALLY spicy! Didn’t ruin the quality of the food whatsoever though!“

“First timer since i just moved to Palisades park couple month ago. I got to know the chef and owner by name, the first day i came in. Very nice people, atmosphere and mostly, Food! chicken is seasoned just right, def has southern kick. Love it. Highly recommended.“

“Great food 🥘 fresh always and generous portions!!“

“This is a fantastic place to get delicious. Fast food. Chick-fil-A beats out the others. The value can't be beat. Get the number one meal and ask for mayo and Chick-fil-A sauce. Put a packet of mayo on your Chick-fil-A sandwich and bring the Chick-fil-A sauce home to improve whatever it is. You eat at home. The baffle fries need nothing. Get a lemonade if you can handle the sugar“

“Great hot wings, that's pretty much the only thing I ever get here, but I have had other things, and it was pretty good. All the employees are really friendly and extremely patient. Just to be perfectly honest, this place is located in a rather tough area, so keep that in mind when going here. Also there's no seating, it's strictly take out, the prices are very fair, and it offers a decent amount of other products similar to a small bodega. All in all, the wings keep me going back almost weekly for a number of years now and I've never had any problems with other customers. Enjoy!“

“Delicious everything so fresh“

“They’re the best of the best. I drive all the way from Wayne, New Jersey just to get my dishes from here! This is the best chicken spot i’ve ever been too, the staff are incredible and the management is above and beyond. You can definitely see they take care of the establishment and the care for the food is the best. Well trusted.“

“Ordered a three piece whiting with onion rings,with banana pudding. When I got to the car and started it, the food smelled so good,I had to try some. Consequently,I had eaten it all and passed out behind the wheel,only to awoken by a passersby concerned with my well being. Long story short,great food. Sorry no pictures 😁“

“I celebrated my nomination this evening in this excellent restaurant. Well it was a enjoyable evening and the restaurant was unquestionably the reason for this successful meeting. The crew contributed in a gorgeous way, the cooking was very good and my buddies were very glad. We shall absolutely come back again for more joyful events. thanks very much.“

“Good food at affordable prices I’m a clean establishment. Fried chicken always freshly done and I will say it’s a good place to stop in for a quick bite but recommend grabbing your food to go. Thugs and dealers in community doesn’t make the spot feel inviting.“

“good service this Popeyes“

“I stopped here after I finished getting my nails done next door. I used their ATM and came back. I grabbed lamb over rice with salad. The lamb was delicious the rice was ok expected more flavor. People weren’t watching their kids and they were eating off other peoples plates. I don’t mind sharing with kids but please don’t allow them to stick their hands in random strangers plates. I would definitely return for take out not to dine in.“

“Scrumptious and authentic srilanka flavors highly recommended ..“

“Great food 🥘 fresh always and generous portions!!“

“This is THE Crown Chicken where the famous Lady Di was flashing hundies and got mugged. If you're lucky, you too can get some fried whiting then meander on over to Bayway Liquor to get a 30 rack from Ponytail Ronnie. But beware, the people with Draylocks and hoodies might give you the full Lady Di experience.“

“Available on Uber eats for delivery, with long hours - a good option for late night wings! Fries are alright, very standard flavour and straight cut. We got our order hot and fresh past 2am, the skin is very crispy, and it came with some ketchup and mild hot sauce packets :)“

“I’m a New Jersey native of this area and now live in Michigan and when I come to vacation in New Jersey this is a must stop place if I could buy a franchise and bring it to Michigan I would the chicken is amazing the flavors on the chicken and the seasoning the way they fry it. It is one of the most amazing pieces of fried chicken that I’ve ever had, I truly recommend anyone to come and try the chicken from this place. I bought a I bought a box meal with a extra piece of chicken on the side and taste of the chicken was juicy was amazing.“

“Ohhh my yummy goodness the absolute best chicken shack joint you will find in Elizabeth new jersey we go to the location often and purchase fried chicken for the family this is the best chicken shack joint you'll find... the Cole slaw is delicious it pairs wonderfully with the chicken and the prices are decent they'll give you the chicken you request the potato wedges are fresh and great I'm getting hungry thinking about them I'll be there soon I frequently eat here and my family enjoys thanks for the best fried chicken ever the chicken gods look down on you 😉“

“AWESOME food! I love the atmosphere. And I really love the fact that they serve the best falafel in the city.“

“Excellent food. Ordered Chicken burger, fries and friend chicken. Food was fresh, tasty and warm. More than everything, had a great conversation with Mr. Javed while waiting for my food to get ready, who is the owner of the restaurant and a thorough gentleman. Will highly recommend.“

“Our go to place for fried chicken tenders The staff is super accommodating. The convenience of being able to call in an order is nice. Many locations, based on the surrounding neighborhoods will not accept a telephone order for pickup.
These guys are just great“
