“I have been to OG's a few times. I must say the customer service matches the good food that they serve customers. They allow you to think about what you want instead of rushing you to take something. I would highly recommend you stop by.“
“My deceased mother introduced me to Maxine's over 25 years ago. She LOVED the food! She often purchased meals from Maxine's at least twice a week. I believe these women respected my mother as well. I, too, grew to love the food and RESPECTED the hard working women (Maxine and her Co-worker) who ensured good tasting quality food! In addition, I had the services of this establishment prepare Sunday meals to be delivered to my Mom's home as a result of her experiences with Alzheimer's Disease in the last 4 years of her life! My mother and her Homecare Workers looked forward to these delicious Sunday meals. THANK GOD I was able to provide this service as a result of working as a retiree. At least 3X, when delivery was NOT available from Maxine's, Maxine brought the meals herself to Mom's home. I recommended wholeheartedly this business to as many people who were looking for a GREAT soulful meal to TAKEOUT. YESTERDAY, November 22, 2023, the day after my mother's birthday, I needed a piece of my mother! I had not engaged in purchasing food from Maxine's in a while. I ordered ahead of time for pickup. I took a cab! Once, I got there, I was told by Maxine's Co-worker that I had to wait in line like everyone else who DID NOT PLACE an order ahead of time. I wasn't there to JUMP the LINE or THINK myself better than anyone else! I asked everyone present before the Co-Worker appeared if they were waiting as a result of placing an order for Pickup. They stated they were not! The people who were WAITING for their food were VERY POLITE and UNDERSTOOD I had already placed an order. I am a Senior Citizen! The Co-Worker acted as if she NEVER knew me. This TREATMENT, after several years of ordering from her face to face. It HURT deeply! I have patronized and promoted businesses of African descent all my life! Maxine had the order ready. She had to inform the Co-Worker from the back that the meal was already prepared. However, I was NOT pleased with my meal upon arriving home to partake in it. A great deal of it appeared almost burnt. I spent $26.00 in carfare alone. OUR businesses MUST learn to RESPECT PEOPLE who WALK through their doors! You NEVER know what they are experiencing when they walk through your DOORS! GREAT FOOD is a MEANS of COMFORT to MANY, especially now! Based on my past experiences, I STILL give these women a high rating in HONOR of my mother. I LEARN lessons EVERYDAY and WORK HARD on IMPROVING my PEOPLE SKILLS as well. May WE learn to serve others with GLADNESS! May WE understand that ALL WORK is a result of the many talents bestowed upon us. Clearly, both of these women are GIFTED in what they do!“
“There food is grate, reminds me of home. Staff is warm, friendly and easy to get along with. Now add to there cozy dinning is a mini bar where you can enjoy a drink of your choice either before or after your mean or if you just need a drink. Don't worry your drink can be as cold as North pole but the warn smile of the bar maid lovely call "Pinky" might just make you drink and don't even realize you have a brain freeze. Stop by and get the experience.“

“Visited with a party of 10 for a birthday dinner staff was very attentive and quick with the service. Prior to going I had been in contact with Omar who took care of everything for me. Food was great drinks very good and music was very good.“
“Love it here! My husband and I have been twice since discovering it a month ago. The food is really good. We’ve tried the curry goat, curry chicken, jerk chicken, and stew chicken so far. My favorite dish has to be the jerk chicken plantain cups. We also tried the culture clash and the rum punch which were both great drinks.The owner (Mo) is awesome, he’s such a friendly guy and we were engaged in conversation with him the whole time we were there on our first visit. He has great experiences to share if you have the time.“
“If you are looking for amazing Jamaican food AND outstanding customer service, look no further! The owner only sells quality food and it is a family owned business. Amoya (hope I spelled it right) is mostly there serving the food whenever I go and she is an absolute pleasure to interact with. I can honestly say they serve their food with LOVE and GRACE. Money spent here is money well spent.“
“I called the restaurant today on my daughter’s birthday (2/26/24) to ask for a table for 5 people including two children. I was told there’s not enough seating for everyone but they would gladly accommodate us at the event space next door. I agreed. My family arrived at around 6 and the two ladies took our order and Yvonne took a few minutes to prepare the table for us. When she led us into the room we were so delighted and astounded! The place was so beautifully decorated, and she managed it in a very short time! All the food was delicious! She made my daughter feel so special, she danced with the girls and helped cut the cake! I was very lucky and blessed to have been given this wonderful memory! It was such a pleasure to meet Yvonne, she is so sweet and has such a good heart! I will definitely be back again soon!Dietary restrictions: Totally Vegan and plant based menu.Kid-friendliness: Yvonne was so sweet with my girls.“
“We met for a birthday bite at West Bar and Lounge. Don't let the location fool you. It may not be as lucrative as dining in Soho, but it's still a great neighborhood, and it's quite easy to get there.When you first walk in, it's dimly lit, so don't complain. Your eyes will adjust. We went in a few minutes after it opened, so you'll catch the staff still prepping for the day.We were greeted by a waitress and seated. We ordered our drinks (they were great! I recommend the hurricane) while we viewed the menu. We decided on the crab dip with chips and crab legs for appetizers. For the main course, we ordered ribeye steak with smashed? (mashed) potatoes and broccoli and lamb chops with wild rice and asparagus, and a side of Mac cheese. Believe me when I tell you, the food was absolutely delicious ?. Every morsel was a delightful bite.Thank you to our waitress for great service. The bartender for outstanding drinks and the chef for the amazing food.“
