“Been here 4 times. I declare take 31 to be the top one on my list of Korean food in New York!The creamy udon pasta is super delicious and is my favorite dish. The creamy sauce is very rich and you won’t get tired of it even if you eat the whole plate. We have tried all three kinds of rice balls, and our favorite is the tuna fish rice ball. The 5 big pieces are full of sincerity and are so satisfying when paired with refreshing kimchi; the honey fried chicken has a sweet coating, and the mustard sauce it comes with is even more remarkable, retaining the mustard flavor without being spicy; the yogurt-flavored Rice wine has more flavor than banana flavor! It’s especially cool; the pork neck meat will be a little fatty; the corn tortillas have caramel adhering to the corn kernels, which are sweet and crispy, especially delicious! !“
“Sylvia's was amazing. We were there to celebrate a great friend and his milestone birthday ? . The staff were friendly and accommodating. The food was absolutely delicious, so flavorful. Highly recommend 100%Parking: Parking garage 2 blocks down and on street parking - some metered & some not might need to drive around a bit if you're holding out for tge street parking“
“I really like a po-boy sandwich, but every time I eat one my brain goes, "these are arthropods, these are bugs." The Craw Pretzel Boy has convinced me I never need to eat an arthropod again. It was really good, not even just "for a vegan version."Same with the mac and cheese.Also, when you go in here there's a case of vegan cupcakes, and they look really good, and I can tell you from experience now that they are really good.“
“From the moment I walked to the moment I walked out, I was treated as family. Everyone was welcoming, helpful and so friendly. I had oxtails, rice and peas and homemade potato salad. It was delicious, the best meal I had on my trip to New York for the UK. See you guys again next year xx“
“The gomtang is a VERY basic, clear broth soup. Really does not have much taste on its own. I personally like more flavorful foods and added the house special pepper paste, which I thought really elevated this dish and brought it to another level. I highly recommend eating the gomtang with the paste.I also ordered the kimchi mandu, which were delicious and spicy. Definitely packed more flavor compared to the gomtang.I recommend making a reservation because walk ins could be a long wait. The seating is around the counter, which I enjoyed as you can watch the food being prepared in front of you.Service was great. The chefs and hosts were very nice and explained things on the menu.“
“The food was amazing! It was seasoned very well. The staff was friendly. We enjoyed ourselves. We had a party of 15 and they didn't miss a beat. It was a bit pricy for some items but worth it. Very large portion sizes. I will definitely be eating here again!“
“When I see places like this I never expect them to perform the way they do on social media. Well BLVD bistro definitely lived up to the expectations. The vibe in here was incredible no matter what your age is from 21-61 everyone who goes here seems to have a great time. I don’t eat grits but the grits at BLVD bistro are grade A. The music and atmosphere in here is A1 and I’m planning my next trip to Harlem to visit this restaurant.Parking: Take public transportation this is Manhattan people.“

“Great energy from the employees, food was excellent taste and efficient service. Environment was clean and enough space to accommodate more than one customer. I had Mac and cheese, string beans, candied yam, rice and black eye peas. Salute to the chef Thank “
“We just ordered dinner tonight, and it’s one of the best meals I’ve had in a year. Delivery was fast and very well-packaged, and the food is incredible. The Korean meatloaf. The ribs. The loaded tiger tots. Every bite was better than the last. Tender, perfectly seasoned meat that gives the usual names a run for their money. We took a leap of faith and tried the BBQ jackfruit and were blown away, I recommend it. Prices are more than reasonable for the generous portions and inventive menu. The strawberry soju cake did not disappoint either. We plan to add Memphis Seoul into our usual rotation from now on!“
“A very special place of warmth and true Jamaican hospitality in NYC. I have hosted several events here (3 cooking classes for students and a special pre-wedding fun "game night" party) and everyone loves generous-hearted Chef Mom, the delicious food she prepares and the wide open welcoming space. What a treat to have this gem in the middle of the city.“
“This is some good ole southern food?! Fried chicken 20 stars!!! I’ve been to this place 3 times already, I always get the veggie plate, which is 4 sides. I get greens, cabbage, black eye peas, & pot salad or string beans. Now normally I don’t get nobody’s pot salad because since our generational grandmothers have all passed away , no one can do it right ?…. But baby pan fried did ?.. I was impressed?. Somebody over 40 made that pot salad ?. The only thing I haven’t taste , was the Mac n cheese ( my heartburn be killing me ) I can’t do all those cheese at this age & the yams. The honey they use to put on the chicken is good ( I had mines on the side ) & the cheesecake is good good good !!!?. The staff is really friendly, from the front to the back. Very nice black owned business ❣️“
“Great varieties of soul food. Excellent salad and fruit bar also. Buffet style setting. Take out only. Prices reasonable.Vegetarian options: Good selection of vegetarian dishes. Both hot and cold.Wheelchair accessibility: Wheel chair ramp available.“
“Everything was a 10/10 .COME HERE ! The service itself was absolutely spectacular. I went on a Wednesday night and they had on soft R&B. The stuffed shrimp with crab meat wasn’t over cooked and just the right amount, But that pan seared Chilean……Baaaabyyyyy Soooo Good and everything tasted sooo fresh ! 100% my new favorite place!SB: The bartender/server Terrell was a sweetheart and knowledgeable.“
“A new restaurant and bakery to the neighborhood that services Soul and Creole food. Finally had the opportunity to try it out, i ordered the Jerk Chicken lunch and Oxtail lunch with seasoned rice, candied yams and mac & cheese. Everything was delicious - i love that the meat falls off the bone of the chicken and oxtail... also the candied yams were cooked just right (not overly soggy)i was expecting bigger portions but im ok to sacrifice quantity for quality... They have a bunch of baked goods and pies that i havent tried yet. Also, they may not have everything on the menu as they are still getting going - so worth calling to see whats available that day. Im looking forward to going back and trying other plates“
“Space is small, so a reservation is definitely needed. All run by chef and owner, Artist. That day we had the place almost all to ourselves and he made our experience one of a kind with his hospitality and attention. Eating delicious food while the guest musician played made for good vibes. We made quick friends with our dining neighbor and the whole restaurant just talked about life. Would definitely return again!“
“For a first time I will say this ?DELICIOUS I mean I had to go to work and the food was still hot when I got to work the seafood bag which I was allowed to create was amazing as well as my other 4 sides (Mac n cheese collard greens yams and crab salad which was amazing) you have gained a new customer see u“
“Surprised I haven't reviewed Red Bamboo already. Really tasty vegan spot for any vegan to non vegan diet. My fiance is vegan so since i met her I've been trying to be fair and healthy and give vegan a try. Tufu i still find disgusting but what really is important is everything else on this menu is phenomenal.Vegetarian options: All vegan restaurant“
“Devin braved the cold and wind with a smile on his face and cooked up crispy henny bbq wings(his mom’s recipe). The sauce on the wings were spectacular. The Mac and cheese with truffle oil( i think he said) hit the spot. I also had the skillet cabbage ?? my pallets was doing the happy dance. Please do your self a favor and go support him, you wont regret it.?????“
“This been my caribe go-to spot for few years now. Try the smoothies I promise you wont want other smoothies after trying. The food is off da hook! I love they vegan cake, stress juice, cassava pone pudding omg!curry chick peas the kale patties trust me you wont go nowhere else!“
“Been to this place twice! Soon as we got off the bus, we headed here. Oxtail is so good! I'm not usually a persons who likes fat on their meat, but they cook and season it so well that u can't help to clean the bone. Mac & cheese is so good and the yams are so sweet! Love a sweet & savory combo. That tea was sweet & refreshing. They were out of the potatoes and chickpeas which was great last time so next time! Such a staple when touchdown.“
“Roberta’s featured nice indoor/ outdoor décor, good food, a stacked bar and a live DJ doing a livestream keeping the place lively when I was there on a Friday night. It’s a place to go with or without friends, to meet people or on a lil dinner date. The service was excellent, and I love that it’s a Black-owned, family run business. I highly recommend it!“
“Some of the best fried food I’ve had without it being too greasy or salty! Freshly battered and fried - true comfort food. The candied yams were particularly fragrant and well spiced. Highly recommended!Vegetarian options: Fried okra and candied yams“
“This restaurant has replaced my kitchen! It is at the end of my street and I have gotten take out from there several days a week. The food is fresh, well prepared, the prices are more than reasonable and the portions are huge!. I have tried mainly all of the chicken dishes and most of the sides; either by myself or with friends. The macaroni pie is amazing.! he food is also set out several times a day so it always is fresh .The owner/chef is a friendly outgoing man and his staff are also very friendly.It has counter seating and a buffet presentation. It is well worth a visit.“
“I got the three-piece fried chicken with collard greens and sweet potato. Everything tasted fresh, and tasted great. Cornbread was a nice size, especially with three pieces of chicken. I also had the iced tea which was good. But it's a takeout place mainly. They do have some inside high tops outside.“
“I love this place.Went once in 2016 and recently in 2024. To this day it's the only place I've had fried chicken. Everything is done by weight so you'll pay less of you eat less. We got two really decent size meal and two soft drinks for 32 dollars. Good options for vegetables as well, which is not a given when traveling the US, I found.Vegetarian options: Brunch of salads and meatless sides.“
“Soul Food how it should taste in an old school Harlem restaurant. Very friendly staff that makes you feel home away from home. Excellent variety of southern food, salads and drinks. That is like 20 yrs back in time and light years from corporate America taking over 125th street.“
“The food was fantastic. Loved the vibes too. The music was on point. I felt like I was back home in Jamaica. I can’t wait to come back for more. I definitely encourage anyone who lives here in NY or visiting to check out this restaurant. Big Tings a gwaan.“
“The best restaurant of the entire trip to New York. We felt like we were at home eating dinner with our mothers. It filled the stomach and the soul. This is an obligatory stop to discover how well people eat in the United States. Great southern food.“
“Kudos to Solera! Service and private seating were top-notch and very personable. Ordered several items from menu and all were delicious! Celebrated granddaughter's 2nd birthday and staff did an amazing job with dessert with candle and song. Traveled from the south and will visit again on next trip to NYC.“
