    Snack Box (2 pc. chicken, biscuit, mashed potatoes) - $3.95 + tax
    Jason P.

    Oh booooy, this place is slooow. There is 1 cashier to take and serve orders, taking ~10 minutes to serve the 4 people in front of me. I finally made my way to the front and ordered the Snack Box which includes 2 pieces of chicken, a biscuit, and small styrofoam container of mashed potatoes and gravy for $4.30 ($3.95 + tax). Not too shabby. The cashier gets on the microphone and shouts "Snack Box", and slowly turns around to get my order at the preparation table. My boxed food, a plastic spoon, and 6 napkins were placed in a 'I Love New York' and I was on my way. The chicken was what one would expect at a place like this, skin extra crispy and orange-toned in color giving its subtle spice. The meat on the leg was juicy, but the breast meat was slightly dry. Tasty, yet typical for chicken sitting in a glass buffet table for who knows how long. The biscuit was proportionately large in size. Fresh but slightly dry. Some melted butter would have been nice. The mashed potatoes were of the creamy consistency, topped with brown gravy to make it a bit more appetizing. Other random tidbits: - The place was fairly clean especially at all the foot traffic I always see this place getting - There are 8 small tables to sit at - Some interesting specials such as 6 mozzarella sticks for less than $2; Crown Special which includes a chicken sandwich, fries, and 16 oz. soda for $4.60, 6 hot wings for $5 and change. - No public bathrooms

    I dunno i like to get some decent pizza and and not have to pay 3.50 a slice in penn station. i usually take an earlier train before my train arrives and get a slice and meat patty. The owners changed a few times but now they are pretty good. you can get a slice for 2 bucks and not bad, or they have a different platters and plates. Chicken and rice gyro... chicken wings etc.. not bad spot i like!

    If I tell you my office ordered catering from here two years ago and I still remember how good it…read morewas- would you believe me?? How about since that day I have NEVER seen this place open so I swore the person lied to me until last Saturday. After church it was freezing and I was about to walk home when I saw the lights on. Now I will say that I am not used ordering in a small quaint area- But BABY!! Talk about a hole in the wall hidden gem! This was one of those if you know you know moments and I risked a full $32 on two plates of food to experience pure food ecstasy. No lies just the truth- that catfish, Mac and greens will bring you to know knees in thanksgiving for all who participated in making it including the fisherman. Some slap ya momma good soul food. I would not recommend that you stand inside like I did it's to hot and stuffy but the woman inside was SWEET! There is parking out front and I have no idea what was on the menu. When I walked in the lady said this is what we have and I said I'll take two. No there is no seating area or a bathroom so I took it on home and my son and I we went to town. Everything was seasoned perfectly, the fish was crunchy on the outside soft on the inside. It HIT THE SPOT!

    Normally I give them a 5 stars for the fish. But today not so much. There was no special seasoning…read morethat I usually get on the fish. I guess they had a new person frying the fish. The only reason i noticed, other then the taste, I did not see the little green specks on it, which was ither oregano or parsley or basil. How every I was very disappointment.

There's often a short wait, which isn't surprising given how consistently packed the dining room is. The brunch menu is stacked with crowd favorites, and the music always sets the vibe--something you can really enjoy while you eat. But the food? Phenomenal. The fried catfish was seasoned and fried to crispy perfection. The turkey wings were tender, flavorful, and cooked just right--fall-off-the-bone good. And the yams? Sweet, rich, and perfectly seasoned... honestly hard to stop eating. The macaroni was rich and satisfying, and the potato salad is always a standout for me. For dessert, I had the chocolate cake--and it was exactly how I like it: moist with real, creamy frosting that doesn't miss. The brunch sangria was also a hit. I mixed red and white, and it was smooth and refreshing. Portion sizes are generous, so you definitely leave satisfied. And Danny, the owner, really sets the tone--he's always present, checking in with guests, jumping in to help the staff, and clearly running a tight operation. Nettie's continues to be the go-to spot for soul food--consistently good, every time.

The food...AMAZING…read more The atmosphere...fun and diner like The staff... best in the city hands down My waitress Amber was the nicest and sweetest person ever (love you girl ). She was the only server there and did a fantastic job. We got the Buffalo mac and cheese balls as a starter and they were so good! kid friendly but had a tiny kick to it. I got the crispy chicken and gravy with the mac and cheese and mexican street corn and there is literally not a single complaint. My mom also got the crispy chicken and mac and cheese but she got the tater tots and they had a nice flavor and were crispy but not burnt (EXACTLY how she ordered them). My sister got the bedrock pancakes and while they looked way too sweet for me she LOVED them. We also got the Nutella Ella Ella Aye milkshake and it looked so good and tasted even better. This will definitely be a place that I will be going back to on my next trip.

I thought it would have been a slight drizzle--not drenched like gravy and biscuits. Was disappointing. Not to mention it was very expensive. Not returning. They weren't very friendly either. So n can't really say it was remotely worth it.
