TyeMeka's Soul Food - Fried fish platter

I've been coming here for years…read more Parking: meter street parking. It can get a little tight sometimes but pack patient and feed the meter. Atmosphere low lighting old school set up low noise. Service: family run black owned business. They are very customer focused and are happy to customize your platters. They offer drinks, dessert and different soul food: turkey wings is a popular one. My favorite are their Halal wings which are cooked just right with some hot sauce and garlic and I am so happy. I don't even get home before I've eaten most of them. Overall my experience here has always been good and I always look forward to going back and I miss them when I'm not in the area. I hope you enjoy your experience.

We wanted potatoe salad with 2 platters but cold salads can't br added to the platter. Called in my order and was told to give them 15-20 minutes and this place is CASH ONLY. Platter came to about $52. I observed a male who appeared to be the cook, 2 females and the cashier. The kitchen area looked too clean for food to have been prepared there but I did observed the yams being pulled out of the over whole there. Noticed an area that held the cold salads. Pictures on the walls, a TV and a few tables and chair inside. The yams were good but could've been cooked down a bit more as some pieces were hard. The mac and cheese was great. The fried fish was perfectly fried, I could've used more seasoning in the batter. The fried fish was good and seasoned well. I noticed they also sold drinks, but I wasn't expecting to pay this amount for lunch, so I decided to go without drinks.

Philly is a city of many small neighborhoods. Mount Airy/Chestnut Hill is one of few that offer an…read moreintimate small-town charm. Nestled next to Lincoln Drive, Mount Airy Tavern is a local spot that juggles the paradox of being a dive bar and family-style restaurant. Environment This restaurant is a nice embodiment of exposed brick and gentle conversations.I've only sat inside on one occasion and the service was prompt yet inviting. Food This is where the restaurant truly shines. Yes,they have a handsome selection of local beers but the food outshines them all. Typically, I grab the Cajun Shrimp Pasta(only for those that can handle and appreciate spice) but if you're on the hunt for a quick snack the Parmesan Fries are also delightful. THE SAUCE Without question,this is my favorite restaurant in the Chestnut Hill/Mount Airy area. I would recomened this place to anyone looking in need of of a restaurant for a modestly priced first date or somewhere to rest your work demons. Happy eating!

The burger tasted kind of plain even though the description sounded great, the meat itself tasted really charred, as if it was cooked on a dirty grill which didn't taste good. My wife had the three cheese grilled cheese which was great for such a simple sandwich. The staff was pleasant enough and service didn't take long. May or may not try again, but if we do it certainly won't be for the burger. 2 beers and 2 meals only costed $44.95 after tax so it was worth it for a fairly cheap night out.

I was so excited to visit Philadelphia and try Country Cookin! I've been following Saud on social…read moremedia for so long, and she did not disappoint! The food is served buffet style and is located in a cute grocery market. It's a relaxed, community ambiance. The service is great. Since it's self-serve, there's really no waiting on anyone. The workers just wait at the end of the buffet belt to ring up your order. The food is DELICIOUS! The fish is fried to perfection, the yams are delectable, and the shrimp is the BOMB! I come every time I'm in Philadelphia! I strongly recommend this place if you're looking for some comfort food to enjoy on a relaxed day! The food is very rich, so it's not something you can eat consistently if you're on a health kick, but it's definitely a lovely treat every blue moon!

The fish sandwich and the wings were tasteless. Perhaps customers enjoy the food , because the portions are large but my friend and I were speechless . It appears , not stating that this is true , but whomever the cook was , he must have fried all items without seasoning. Unfortunately I will not return and that is ok , because at least I gave this establishment a try . The food was not a hit for me , however the owner and the staff were kind.

People kept raving about this place, so I decided to visit. I was seated and given a menu. Before I…read morego any further, it is important to note that I am extremely allergic to all seafood. I do not know the names of different types of seafood, and whenever I dine out, almost every server asks if there are any dietary restrictions or allergies. As I read through the menu, the dishes sounded new and delicious. I said, "This sounds great--can I try this tilapia thing?" I specifically referred to it as "this tilapia thing" because I did not know it was fish. I don't eat fish, I had no idea people eat fish for breafest and I don't know they name of any seafood. Well I know bass and salmon :-) When our food arrived, I saw that my dish contained fish. I immediately informed the waiter that I could not eat it because it was seafood. His response was, "What, you didn't know tilapia is fish?" Despite his obnoxious tone, I replied respectfully, "I had no idea that was fish."He looked at me with clear disdain and said, "Well, I still have to charge you for the fish, so what else would you like?" I replied that I did not want anything else, just the bill.I will never set foot in Honey's again. I am deeply disappointed by the way I was treated and I am not a fan of privileged individuals who believe they can treat others with disdain and disrespect. Never Again!

Although I had to throw away those shoes , that jerk chicken platter was worth it. Baby! This is hands down the best in Philly. Every bite taste like I was back in Jamaica. The curry chicken was sold out (a good sign), so now I have the perfect excuse to come back. The owner was warm, welcoming, and genuinely kind. Which was a bit contradicting if you know the rude customer service / good food theory. but anyways ... The ambiance is giving Jamaican Jerk Hut - definitely authentic taste and vibes. call ahead and time your pickup just right. Those PPA drivers definitely have a system in that grocery store lot. Stay alert, grab your food, and thank me later.

It was still when we he got home with my BBQ Salmon with rice and beans, greens and candied yams. Everything individually has flavor. The rice is cooked just rice; not mushy or crunchy. Great portion size of salmon and not drowning in sauce. The greens seasoned and not spicy. I have had greens from other restaurants where they make the greens spicy. It was a pleasant surprise not to have a "kick" to my greens. The candied yams were nice and soft and now drowning in syrup. Just the way I like it. I look forward to trying something else on the menu.

Humpty's Dumplings is honestly the best find!! Their food is amazing, high quality ingredients,…read morefresh, and packed with flavor! There are quite a few dumpling options that stay on the menu year round plus special seasonal flavors that are absolutely delicious!! I found them about a year and a half ago and have ordered almost every single day they've been open ever since. The dumplings are phenomenal and packed with flavor- we LOVE the Cheesesteak, Honey Chipotle Chicken, Mexican Street Corn and Broccoli Cheddar as staples. As for seasonal flavors there are so many but one I wish they'd make a staple is Chicken Parm! They are beyond incredible and I bought a ton of the flash frozen when I knew they'd be gone soon. Unfortunately they only lasted so long and now I'm without and my family is counting down the days until it's back. We also LOVE the French Onion Soup and Grilled cheese with tomato soup! They not only have dumplings but have noodle bowls that will blow your mind. The chicken Pot Pie was amazing and I'm dying for us to try the General Tsoz noodle bowl as well. The owners truly care about the business and their customers and the staff is incredible, helpful and kind. If you are looking for something a bit different, absolutely delicious, and addictive you MUST give them a try! You won't be disappointed! They are on DoorDash, GrubHub (although I somehow became out of radius after ordering for a year daily), Toast App and on their website for delivery. They have an adorable location in Keswick and they also are at many events in a Food Truck. I wouldn't give them leee than a 10/10!!!
