10 out of 10!!! Thoroughly enjoyed the fried catfish and shrimp combo mac & cheese collards mixed with cabbage, Candy yams, sweet cornbread , buffalo chicken wings And washed it all down with a tall glass of uptown our server I believe her name was Shamiya I could be wrong. I apologize if I have the incorrect name but it definitely started with SH🤣, but she was amazing as well..my family is looking forward to going back.

5‑Star Review: Best Soul Food in NJ Juke Joint is hands‑down the best soul food experience in New Jersey. From the moment you walk in, the atmosphere wraps around you like family—warm, lively, and full of that authentic Southern charm. The music, the energy, and the vibe make you feel like you’ve stepped into a place that truly honors the culture behind the food. The service is exceptional. Every staff member treats you like you’re a regular, even on your first visit. They’re attentive, friendly, and genuinely passionate about what they do, which makes the entire experience feel personal and welcoming. And the food—absolutely incredible. Every dish tastes like it was made with love and tradition. Perfectly seasoned, beautifully prepared, and served hot and fresh. Whether it’s the classi

Brothers & Sisters this isn’t SOUL FOOD! This chicken is quick seasoned with Sazon (Eww!!) No season to the collards! Yellow rise looks dry!!! This isn’t soul food! Go to CORN BREAD

I ordered through Uber Eats. I was not feeling well, so I was looking for a Sunday dinner. I read the reviews and decided to go with this place. What a waste of almost one hundred dollars, because I tipped the driver and all the other fees. The food was loaded with salt, and I could even eat it. I managed to eat half a wig and some collard greens. Without the salt, I am sure I would have enjoyed the meal. Because it was cooked ok the wings were a little soggy, but that could have been from the ride to my house. don't think I will give them a second chance because of all the salt.

I ordered turkey wings over yellow rice with Mac & cabbage. When I grabbed the food and the bag didn’t feel hot that was my first red flag. I opened my bag, no utensils. These were the worst turkey chops I ever had in my life. They were not crunchy, very soggy and thin. The baked macaroni & cheese was nasty. It was runny and clumpy. The best thing on my plate was the cabbage and the rice was ok. I hate wasting my hard earned money on food that doesn’t meet basic expectations.
