Food is delicious and clearly made with care! I've ordered multiple times and have never been disappointed.

I was craving some soul food and was very happy to try this place out! We came here during a cold weekend lunch and there weren't many people at the restaurants. They have a few booster seats around the sides of the room and it mainly seemed like a take-out place. We ordered a large oxtail with a side of baked mac & cheese and collard greens and it was delicious. We shared it between two people and we almost couldn't finish it. The oxtail basically fell off the bone and was very tender and flavorful. I like the mac & cheese as well although I wish there was more cheese as it felt a bit carb heavy. But the real star was the collard greens which were incredibly tender and soaked up all the meat juices it was marinated in. Will definitely be back to try more items! read more

This food was amazing!! I loved it!! I wish the oxtails were a little spicy though. It'll be nice if they had sitting areas too. read more

Greedy Pot - Oxtails - Caribbean Near Me - New York, New York

It's rare finding a Caribbean spot with both friendly service AND good food. Had the curry goat, rice and peas, and yams and was really happy with my meal. I probably could have asked for more of the gravy. Definitely would come back whenever I'm in the area. read more

The oxtails are really good thought it will make your mouth burn. The downside about Greedy Pot is the music is so LOUD. read more

The Greedy Pot is absolutely delicious!!!! As a pescatarian (I know I know- the oxtail, fish and stewed chicken looked AHHHHMAZING) I still got down with the cabbage (most delicious I've ever had) and Mac and cheese (chef's kiss!!) and rice and peas, and so so much more! Everything is flavored so well and the generosity of the owners and cooks goes beyond the restaurant as they frequently service and donate to the Harlem community!! Love this place! read more

Absolutely delicious. Best curry goat and candied yams I've ever had, hands down 10/10 read more

Greedy Pot was right there, so I went in. Every aspect of the food impresses without high prices. The menu features unexpected taste pairings. When looking at cost, amount, taste, and workers, I must give this place top rating. My loved ones and I will be returning often. read more

Left a google review and now coming here so that folks understand that I'm highly disappointed. I support this business because of multiple reasons the highest being the food hits and the business is run by mostly black women . However , when I pay 19 & change for a meal I expect it to be a full meal not mostly rice and bones and fat . Large curry goat w/ rice & peas and cabbage . Didn't order a large rice with a likkle serving of goat I ordered a LARGE GOAT with two sides . I work hard for my money and this is just unacceptable because you are taking from black people . Maybe it was the day or something, but I really can't sit here and say that's okay . Please do better , and I know it doesn't matter but I'll just go somewhere else . read more

I was visiting from out of town and decided to check this place out. I order the oxtails, Mac and cheese and the yams. Everything was 10 out of 10. Probably the best oxtails I've ever had. Service was wonderful as the staff was nice and friendly read more

The food is absolutely delicious and consistently hits. The portions are pretty good and the staff are always super friendly.

It's a bit overhyped.. lol I had it 30 mins before they closed so that's probably why it didn't taste as good to me but in my opinion king barka is bit better read more

The food is bomb and the owners were really kind. I got the oxtail with rice and peas with Mac and cheese. Everything was *chefs kiss*. I'll be coming again. read more

Greedy Pot - BBQ Fried Chicken Collard Greens Candied Yams - Caribbean Near Me - New York, New York

Amazing find. Came here on African American day. Ordered the fried shrimp with Mac and cheese and candied yams. MY GOD were the shrimp juicy. Super hot when they came out and they popped with so much flavor. You get 6 of them but shared with someone as to not pass out after the meal. I recommend getting their hot sauce and dipping everything in it, since it's vinegar-based and pairs well with the shrimp and Mac and cheese. The candied yams were also a great little sweet dessert after all those shrimp. Not bad for an $18 meal. read more

By far the best soul food in Harlem! I frequent here often and get oxtails/barbecue fried chicken with Mac & yams! They also have a rewards program for the money you spend there. I recommend calling ahead with your order if you are in a rush because they take their sweet time making this delicious food - as they should. Definitely support read more

There HAS TO BE someone's grandmother cooking in that kitchen. This is definitely one of Harlem's gems. Protect this place at all costs!

Oxtails, Jerk Chicken, Rice & Peas, Mac & Cheese, Potato Salad, Plantains, and free flowing gravy.... Absolutely wonderful establishment with pleasant & friendly owners who carefully prepare savory island delicacies which leave you wanting more. I will definitely be back to try their Curry Chicken, Stew Chicken, and their signature Jerk Chicken. Some of the most delicious & flavorful Caribbean & Soul fare found in West Harlem. read more

Yaaas I was there Friday May 3, 2024 The food was delicious, nice succulent Ox Tails Mac and Cheese and Ooouuu those Yams ... Yummy Now I can't wait for the Jerk Chicken which wasn't available at that time, but Bets to believe I'll be back everything I had was nicely seasoned and not to SALTY Thanks Serena and Kevin as their hospitality and customer service was on point with their great conversations!!! read more

I was looking for something new to try this trip and researched some black owned businesses. Yelp led us here, a lowkey spot in Harlem. Due to Covid, we weren't able to step inside the actual restaurant and had to order from the entryway. Service was quick and easy. I had the wings with Mac and cheese and cabbage. All was good. The Mac was creamy and the cabbage was full of flavor. The wings were tender for a fried batter. Good but next time I will ask to fry hard. I forgot the name of the drink I had but it was the bomb. I would like to go back and try something else. Definitely a good grab and go spot. read more

The turkey wings! Phenomenal. I don't have any pictures of the food become we are up too fast it was so good. Just go in say hello, ask what they have/ making for the day and order you won't be disappointed. read more

This spot is one whole in the wall you dont want to pass up! The hidden gems are always the most elusive. We were walking by and saw a chalkboard on the side walk that listed what they were serving that day and we decided to give it a shot. We ordered the oxtails, rice & peas and macaroni and cheese and it was finger licking good!!! The oxtails were so tasty and covered in this thick sweet and savory sauce that was not letting up. The oxtails were also tender, which I always prefer because I hate fighting with my food. The rice and peas were cooked to perfection and the mac and cheese was cheesy and just slightly crusty on the top just the way I like it. Overall it was a great meal, I cant wait to go back and try more of their menu. read more

Greedy Pot - Oxtails Rice and Peas Baked Mac and Cheese - Caribbean Near Me - New York, New York

For 15.50, you can get oxtail with 2 sides. The order came with 5-6 pieces of oxtails. The meat melted off the bones. The sauce was good, but I was taken aback by how sweet it was. For the sides, I chose the cabbage and the mac and cheese. The cabbage was so good that in retrospect, I should've ordered it as my second side as well. The mac and cheese was alright. It was nothing special. If you live in the area, you can get this delivered for a small fee plus tip. read more

Great food and amazing service. Fried chicken and yam were the highlights. Will be back!

Found our way here by accident and glad we did. As soon as we entered, the staff was super welcoming. We ordered the whiting and ox tail with a couple sides each. Not much seating inside, but the food was delicious and would come back in a heartbeat. Do yourself a favor and swing by read more

LOVE this place from the food to the owners. food is fresh, spiced right (minus the loads of sodium I'm used to getting). you can really taste the love & attention the owners put in every part of the dish. i've only really craved for oxtail in the winter bc of how heavy it could be but the oxtail at this place will have been craving it all year around. meat was fall off the bone tender and seasoned just right. aside from oxtail, I've tried the turkey wing which is baked, a bit lighter in taste but equally as delicious. while i was getting my food today, a guy came in to buy a 2nd helping of banana pudding so I will def tack on dessert next time. Definitely stop by if you are in the area - you will not be disappointed! note to owners: pls ask if we'd like to tip on cc orders. you'd be surprised at how much you'd get :) GREAT addition to the neighborhood , thank you ! read more

Greedy Pot - oxtail + collards + cabbage - Caribbean Near Me - New York, New York

New spot serving soul food with a Caribbean bent-- there's a short daily menu with rotating entrees like jerk chicken, oxtail, curried goat or chicken, meatloaf, ribs, etc. plus the usual soul food sides (collards, Mac & cheese, rice & peas, candied yams, etc). A meal is meat + 2 sides. This is a take-out spot, with everything served in plastic containers. There are a few stools inside and a bench outside. It's clean and brightly lit, if largely undecorated. As a vegetarian there's not much for me here, but it's a solid addition to the neighborhood and seems to be well-received. read more

It was a great experience as a first time customer of a first time delivery from them, my experience taste of the food I had to stoppppp eating and pause..... You cannot eat this too fast you have to take in every bite with the flavor I am grateful speculator and I am always skeptical of pricey for that taste terrible, but this food was a reasonable price catfish is delicious I suggest anyone who loves fish to try fried catfish from these people because I do not eat fried food that much but from now in time I get a taste and this was a great experience I must emphasize again read more

Greedy Pot - Oxtail potato salad and Mac and cheese - Caribbean Near Me - New York, New York

I just discovered this place today while walking home & I'm glad I did. What a great edition to the neighborhood! I ordered the oxtail meal w/ mac & cheese and rice & peas as the side. Everything was delicious and tasted fresh & home made. I love the fact that the food isn't made with tons oil & doesn't have an oily after taste like some places. The oxtail was perfectly braised & fell off the bone. Mac & cheese was legit & cheesy. The rice & peas (beans) were well seasoned & not dry like some other places. I appreciate the fact that they ask if you want extra gravy . Also they are NOT stingy with their portions. I got a very generous portion of everything for $11.50. I can already tell that this is going to be my go to dinner spot in the neighborhood. read more

Agreed to drive 12 hours with my mom from chi to Newark to load up some ceramics equipment just so I'd be close enough to have the opportunity to try more of this restaurant's food. True down home cooking. A gem of Harlem. Super chill staff, and the music they play slaps. read more

So I read a review before ordering with someone else saying that they took a chance so they also said it was really good I saw a lot of different reviews but I took the chance and I'm so very happy that I did my meal of oxtails macaroni and cheese sweet potatoes and a side of rice and peas was one of the best meals I've had from not only delivery not only out of Harlow but a Caribbean soul food place a place that really knows how to make some side dishes and they know how to cook down that meat till it's off the bone you don't even get to pick the bone up delicious the amount of food I received was decent and I was not mad about what I paid will be ordering again a lot read more

My advise is to always call the establishment before you make your way to the restaurant . The food is great but I strongly advise NEVER to visit the establishment till you call and verify what they are serving I traveled from downtown Manhattan to order some food. Got there at 12 on a Tuesday. Walked in, said they weren't ready to open. I looked at them scratching my head. Their customer service is okay. They tried to want to make it up to me. But the problem is, you're not 5 star. Red lobster doesn't say lobster be ready at 2pm when they're open at 10. but if you're going to be open at 12 ...,be open and functioning like a real operation at 12. Tried of supporting black business that run unprofessionally. Makes no sense. You're not canceled. But you'll never be first choice. You're not open on Monday, Tuesday at 12 you are ready to be open. This is a business not a game of pac man. read more

If you want southern food in Harlem, this is the place! I went with two friends, one had fried chicken, one had barbecue chicken with Mac and cheese, and I had the oxtails. Everything was delicious! My friend, who was raised on southern food, was very excited by the greens. lots of people were picking up takeout, which is probably the way to go. The place is tiny, just a little counter with seats for five, but we were 3 so it worked :-) the family who was doing the cooking were very inviting and warm and friendly! read more
