    Soul rolls
    Paula J.

    This is a hidden gem, service is great, Joshua D was very warm attentive and professional. The restaurant was clean and had a relaxed vibe. The food is really good! For our apps we had the Rasta fries, Soul rolls and Caribbean street corn, all were served hot, perfectly seasoned with loads of flavor! For our entrees we had the Chicken and waffles with hot honey sauce, pan seared salmon, Fried whole wings with Mac and cheese, collard greens and potatoe salad, everything was delicious and flavorful and nicely presented. My only negative was my cocktails, I initially ordered the rum punch, it was so strong on the rum, there was no flavor, it was beautifully presented though. Joshua D was happy to change it but sadly it's replacement which was Bacardi gold and pineapple juice was not any better, still way to strong. This does not take this great restaurant off my list though. I will be back.

    On Sunday, April 19th, I gathered a group of eight to celebrate my son's 29th birthday. From the moment we arrived, we had a wonderful experience. We were warmly greeted by a lovely young lady at the bar, followed by a friendly and professional hostess who asked us to wait briefly while she prepared our table. Once seated, we were taken care of by our waiter, Jay, who truly made the evening exceptional. His attentiveness, professionalism, and genuine effort to ensure everyone was comfortable did not go unnoticed. He handled our drink, appetizer, and meal orders seamlessly and was always available for any questions. The food itself was outstanding--both the quality and portion sizes exceeded our expectations. To top it all off, Jay went the extra mile by informing the DJ about my son's birthday. The staff joined in the celebration, and my son was treated to a special birthday moment along with a piece of cake. For all of these reasons, I highly recommend **Blended Flavors Restaurant & Bar**. Thank you for making my son's birthday so memorable. Alicia Leroy

    Whiting Fish Dinner

    No parking lot. Good service although I asked for water before I ordered my meal and received it at the end. I would get take*out moving forward.

    Rasta Pasta with fried catfish

    Hubby and I have been here before and enjoyed ourselves. So we decided to go again for a last minute date night. Vibe was nice with music we love. Service was on point, we were helped almost immediately and checked on frequently. For an app we ordered the Bang Bang Shrimp. The sauce was tasty. Hubby got the Rasta pasta with catfish. The catfish was soooo good. Fried just the way we like it and it had this sweet glaze that added extra flavor. I got the Rasta pasta as well and loved it. It could've been a little bit spicer for me but it was full of flavor. We'll definitely be back again.

    Jerk Chicken dinner with Turkey Collard Greens &  Macaroni & Cheese

    We came here on a date and the service was great. We ordered drinks, strawberry mojito and a glass of cabernet wine. We ordered the wingettes with the carolina bbq sauce, it was amazing. The chicken was so crispy. I ordered the jerk chicken and it came with rice and two sides. I got the collard greens and mac & cheese. They were both really really good but I wish I got the yams. My boyfriend got the oxtail meal that also came with rice and two sides. He got the collard greens and mac & cheese as well. and for dessert, we both got the chocolate and caramel churros. I wanted the banana one but next time I will try that. The ambiance is very cute inside slightly small and a little chilly so dress warm in the winter.

    Turkey wings are a 10 String beans are a 10 The Mac is a 7.5 The ox tails & Mac (which seems like a different kind of Mac btw) is a 8.5 Rice is a 5.. flavorful but not done all da way Greens were a 7 Whiting was good, 7 The banana pudding was probably da weakest cuz da pudding was like a gelatin type texture Service was cool and has a nice lil ambiance. I'd def return and suggest to others!

    Oxtails - the person who ordered commented delish.

    Food is amazing. Music amazing. Ambiance cute. Parking can be a challenge since the location is at 628 W St. George Ave Linden Nj. There is decent parking on residential side streets.

    The food was amazing. They should have the option to add corn bread to a meal for an up charge

    Blended Flavors food was good, the portions were smaller than other southern spots I've gone to. They give you decent choices as sides which are great staples for a southern spot. Parking was off street on a busy road, but I was lucky to get something nearby. I would return for the fish and the turkey wings which were flavorful. Young wings and not the big ones, you get three for the price. No corn bread which was a bit sad.

    Fried shrimp and chicken platter
    Elaine D.

    I got the takeout shrimp and chicken platter. The shrimp were great and so was the mac and cheese. I'd love to go back and try the turkey wings and stay and have a drink. The martinis looked great.

    This restaurant was recommended, so I went to try the Whiting fish sandwich and skillet cornbread. I did enjoy the fish although for my taste I would have liked a bit more flavor from the fry batter ,and crispy. As for the cornbread it was good just a little hard on the top although the inside was moist. People dine in or take out to experience quality food and service overall. Would I return yes ,and recommend too others to enjoy the experience.

    I had a great experience at Blossom Brunch. The food was absolutely delicious--everything tasted…read moreclean, flavorful, and thoughtfully prepared. What really stood out to me was the presentation. The plating is decorative and gives upscale, fine dining vibes, which makes the whole brunch feel elevated rather than just casual. The atmosphere is one of my favorite parts. It has a cute café-style brunch vibe with an airy, light, and inviting decor. It feels relaxed but still aesthetically put together. The service was also excellent--our server was very attentive and made sure we were taken care of the entire time. I also liked that they offer mocktails and allow BYOB for alcohol, which gives you flexibility depending on your preference. Now, just to be real--this place is popular, so expect a wait. It can get crowded and a bit tight inside, especially during peak brunch hours. Parking is also something to plan for since there's limited space (the lot only fits about four cars), so you'll likely need to find street parking. Overall, I definitely recommend Blossom Brunch. The food, vibe, and service are all on point. Honestly, they're doing so well that I hope they expand soon--it's clearly a spot that's in demand and could benefit from more space.

The pancakes were definitely the highlight of the meal. We ordered the sampler sizes of the Tres Leches, Fruity Pebbles, and Banana Pudding pancakes. Out of the three, the Fruity Pebbles pancakes were by far the best, flavorful, fun, and wellbalanced. The Tres Leches pancakes, while good in concept, were overwhelmingly sweet. The Banana Pudding pancakes, however, were enjoyable and had a nice balance of flavor. For savory dishes, the Crab Cake Benedict was excellent and full of flavor. Unfortunately, the Chicken & Waffles Benedict did not meet expectations. The chicken lacked seasoning and crispiness, making the dish taste bland overall. I was not a fan of that particular entrée. On the other hand, the regular Chicken & Waffles dish was much better and came with three wings coated in a tasty hot honey sauce. The service and hospitality, however, left a lot to be desired. Although our waiter was kind , the timing of food was lacking. Also they did forget to give us utensils and we had to ask when one of the dishes arrived (because they didn't all arrive at the same time ) . Our table of four initially received only three drinks, leaving one person waiting an additional five minutes for theirs. The food was brought out one dish at a time rather than together, which disrupted the dining experience. The last dish to arrive, the Chicken & Waffles and Eggs Benedict ,came out so late that the rest of the table had already nearly finished eating. Overall, while some of the food items stood out positively, the lack of coordination and attentiveness in service negatively impacted the overall experience.

    I bumped into this spot on a whim cuz the wife was in the mood for yams after scrolling and seeing…read morea few soul food posts. So I decided to venture here since it was closest in the area at the time. The inside was cozy and quaint, I took my food to go but had to wait a bit even though I ordered ahead, but dude DID say it would take 25-30 min for my order. Polite young man I should add. I don't mind the wait cause I could hear the fryer heavy at work in the back, and I've learned not to rush the process. I will say for it to be a soul food spot, I would've expected a bit more of variety besides fish and wings. I also hate that they were out of a lot of stuff, from whiting to collard greens, and while I'm waiting I overheard dude tell another customer they were out of Mac & cheese. Soooo.. fingers crossed on how this meal goes.. Sure enough... They messed up the order... I ordered double mac and unfortunately, since they're out of it, there's nothing that can be done ... Not to mention, they forgot to give me my shrimp so I had to turn around for that .. hopefully the food is good, again fingers crossed.. I'll update shortly when I get back to the crib Ok, let's get to the food, cause that's the main reason we're here... Yams - 10.. These were clearly the star of the meal!! they were cooked down to perfection, with a beautiful sweet glaze, and I have zero complaints at all!! Wings - 8.. I got the Thai chili wings, which were good and fried well, and nice size wings, I just expected a little bit of spice. But again no complaints. I'd order them again. I had one of My Son's honey barbecue wings, and those were pretty good too. Mac - best of MID! The Mac wasn't bad. The problem is, there was no successful marriage between the macaroni noodles and the cheese itself. There were several times where I would have a fork full of cheese and two noodles, which was a pretty unpleasant bite. Yes I love cheesy mac & cheese for sure, but I like it to be GELLED together in Harmony This seemed like they took chunks of cheese and mixed it into the boiled macaroni and baked it. Again, it didn't taste bad, the ingredients just didn't merge. Shrimp - 9. I'm glad I turned around to get these shrimp that they initially forgot. But shrimp were very nice sized, plump, seasoned very well and crisp but not over fried. Great job here, no complaints at all. I actually am looking forward to having their shrimp again next time I come. Overall, I enjoyed the food. And unfortunately, Yelp doesn't give half stars. But I would be remiss to give them a three, being that these were just human errors and that's OK in my opinion. As I said, the young man was very polite that helped me with my order, and again the food was very good. So yes, I hated that my order wasn't accurate, but they did their best to rectify it and served good food. That said, I'll definitely come back and suggest this spot to others.

After trying to decide between a handful of places, I decided on Monai's mostly because I saw they have a parking lot and I just simply wasn't in the mood to be searching around for street parking that day. When I arrived, I asked for a menu and after looking it over, I decided on the sweet chili wings with mac & cheese and green beans. I was told the wait would be 20-25 minutes. It did take a little bit longer than that. It was probably more like 30-35 minutes. I sat at one of the empty tables while I waited. They had a good playlist of r&b music playing which made the wait a little more favorable. Once my food was ready, I took my food to go. My favorite part of my meal was the chicken wings. They were cooked and seasoned well. The sweet chili sauce was the icing on the cake. The sides were just okay to me. The mac & cheese could use a little more of something...maybe a little touch of salt or seasoning. The green beans were nothing special and tasted like they came from a can. The sides weren't terrible or inedible, but could use a little more of something. With that being said, it was good enough that I'd return. I would like try some of their other entrees.
