Soul Food Restaurants near Teaneck, NJ

“If you have a taste, for some great home cooking, make your way to Maggie's! A small family run joint, where the food is made with soul and love! The meatloaf, yams and greens, are crave worthy and the cabbage, mac n cheese and ribs will make you wish you bought more! I have eaten Soul Food, from way South to NYC, in homes and restaurants and Maggie's rates up there with some of the most delicious, I've had. As they say down South, "they put their feet in that food"!!!“

“I had Kadyah's Soul food for the first time a week ago and I have to say that the flavor of everything was well balanced and pronounced. You never questioned if there needed to be more seasoning. For me personally, I love to simply eat meat, and all the meat that I have tried tasted amazing. Also, despite my meat comment, I loved the yams. Definitely recommend.“

“Scrumptious food! And they're practicing and implemented covid-19 safety measures for their customers.“

“Wish I could try this man’s food. It was very interesting how I came to be at this establishment today. Went into a place next-door that wasn’t quite what I was hoping it would be. When I stepped outside, I was standing in front of this gentleman‘s restaurant, actually googling on my phone - banana pudding. He was excited they had just taken the scaffolding down so you could actually see the front of his restaurant. He was very friendly so he invited me in and when he showed me the menu, the second dessert item listed was in fact, banana pudding. Homemade, truly excellent. I’ll definitely come back to try the food he just wasn’t ready for service when I stopped in. Super friendly guy as well. Go visit this restaurant.“

“This was my first time at Chef Rabbits place but I can already tell you that it won't be my last! I had the whiting fish sandwich and it was GOOD! My date had the chicken and Mac m cheese. All of the food was a hit! The concept of having a pop up restaurant in the middle of Harlem is genius! I can't wait to go back!“

“Stopped here super quickly due to my other half being in the surgery center next door. Not from the Clifton area at all. I wanted to grab a little treat for him. I got the banana pudding. Omg!! To die for. The girl (assuming owner) was super sweet! Very cute place! A little hidden gem for sure!!“

“Excellent service and Plenty of options! Everything was amazing!“

“The hospitality is always on point when I dine there. The food is delicious. A nice small intimate setting. I would definitely recommend this restaurant to others.“

“We really liked the food, it tasted good and seemed like good quality. All five of us liked the food, even the vegetarians had a lot to choose from, the man working there was nice. The place is ordinary but if you want good food you can go there and eat or you can take the food with you.“

“This spot is new to the block according to the owner which was very nice. For a spot that just came in, the food was delicious I must admit, there wasn’t much we could pick from the menu because they were still getting things together but I got chicken, macaroni and cheese inside a craved out pineapple. Yummy… the service was laggy however it’s clear they were trying which made the process feel promising. I believe within a year or 2 this spot is going to be poppin off something nice. Drinks were ok!“

“I've ordered take out from the location on 117th Street twice and their food is delicious! First time I ordered All Fish. It was nicely seasoned and fried crispy. Second time I ordered the Fish and Shrimp dinner with Collard Greens and Candied Yams. The meal definitely hit the spot! The Collard Greens are quite tasty (I could order them as a side minus the Fish and Shrimp). I swear by their Collard Greens, they have a slight smoked flavor! I give them two 👍🏾👍🏾! The Candied Yams were delicious with a hint of sweetness to them. They get a 👍🏾 as well. Fish and Shrimp were tasty. Service was fast and professional. I highly recommend Lighthouse Fish Market and Restaurant to those who are looking for a reasonably priced, quality meal.“

“Great atmosphere, awesome music, prompt service, friendly staff and outstanding cuisine !!!“

“Nice partying place for gatherings“

“I was told about this spot thru a friend. I decided to check it out.
Food was very fresh, and tasty. I had the crab legs, shrimp, noodles, potatoes, and corn in a bag, with the signature sauce. So good!
I love the ambiance, music playing (not to loud) for you to bop your head to…but you can also have a conversation without yelling.
Service was on point and on time. For good food and chill vibes, I recommend ESO PESCO. I will definitely come again.“

“Awesome food and like the most of their dishes“

“Thanksgiving meal was awful, just awful. Nothing was sliced. Ni gravy. The meat was chopped up. Dressing was worse than stove top. Sweet potato pie was awful. Stale.no taste. Who is the cook in this place.

Paid $150 food was horrible . Never again.“

“My husband and I were looking for a seafood soul food spot and we stumbled upon this hidden gem. We both ordered the fried shrimp with Mac n cheese and collard greens! Everything was a 10/10 I’m very picky about Mac n cheese and collard greens and both were delicious. The collard greens were seasoned perfectly, Mac n cheese had the right amount of cheese, it was peppery just how I like it. The fried shrimp was fresh and hot. We can’t wait to try more dishes.“

Despite a knee injury that prevented me from joining in the dancing, I was captivated by the mesmerizing performances I witnessed.The dancers displayed impeccable hand and foot coordination, executing intricate turns and movements with grace and precision. Their skill and passion for Steppers dance were evident in every step, creating a mesmerizing spectacle for all in attendance.The atmosphere at Londel's was electric, filled with excitement and energy as the dancers moved to the rhythm of the music. Although I was unable to partake in the dancing myself, I felt inspired and motivated to recover from my knee injury and return to the dance floor.Watching the Steppers dance group at Londel's was a truly unforgettable experience, and I am eagerly looking forward to the day when I can join in the fun and experience the joy of dancing once again after my knee surgery.I would highly recommend anyone in the Harlem area to visit Londel's and witness the incredible talent of the Steppers dance group for themselves. It is an experience that is sure to leave you in awe and leave you eagerly anticipating your next visit.“
