Fried Chicken Box
Zuobin T.

This time the thighs, next time we will be back for the pies. On a scorching July 4th day, our family came here to celebrate America's 250th birthday with some good classic American comfort food. It's been years since I visited their original Williamsburg location. I was glad that this new location opened up near our neighborhood and couldn't wait to try it out. We wanted lots of their fried chicken, so we ordered both the fried chicken box and the chicken and waffles. We also ordered the catfish and grits. Let's start with the glorious fried chicken. A quick bite through its golden and crispy skin led to the juicy, but still hot, meat inside. As I gingerly took my bite, I was wondering how the crispy skin didn't leave a greasy taste in my mouth at all. Then, I noticed that the waffles here were on the softer side, which made sense given how crispy the chicken skin was. The catfish also provided a great contrast in texture with its cornmeal coated exterior and cheesy, creamy grits underneath. Finally, the biscuit that came with the fried chicken box also left an impression given how the exterior had a similar texture to the crispy chicken skin, with a buttery and moist goodness inside. The heat definitely affected our appetite negatively as we didn't have any room for pies this time. Overall, the service was nice and attentive. The decor was simple but I liked how spread out the seats and tables were.

The Big Salad that I didn't eat and Catfish and grits
Linda S.

Took my wife here after a wonderful experience we had at flow day spa. I ordered the big salad and she had Catfish n grits. The Big salad was ordered with chicken now the chicken itself was ok but the salad on its own was completely tasteless. Completely disappointed since im known as the salad queen. I eat salad everyday and this was by far awful. My wife got diarrhea from what she had. I heard so much about this place but we won't be back. Boooooooo. Not to mention the floor was sticky and i had to ask the server to wipe down the stick table and she wiped the spot not the whole table.Booooooo

Chicken Sammie, Mac 'N' Cheese
Samantha S.

I came in around 9:15pm on a weeknight, and the staff were very accommodating and didn't rush me despite their closing time of 10pm. I ordered a chicken sandwich, which was filled with lots of toppings (they didn't skimp on the bacon), and found it satisfying though a bit awkward to handle, since the bun was considerably smaller than the rest of the sandwich. I do wish the sandwich had a more interesting sauce than just mayo, but perhaps I can fix that myself next time by bringing a lil something. With a sandwich, you have the option to choose a side, and I picked the mac 'n' cheese, which was rich and creamy and hit the spot. I also grabbed a slice of the sour cherry and pear pie to-go, a pleasant dessert to accompany my rewatching Twin Peaks. Overall, the food was decent, the staff were very polite, and the restaurant itself was tidy. The pricing seemed a bit steep from my first glance at the menu, but I suppose it's standard for a sit-down spot in the neighborhood, and they do offer good-sized portions. I would like to return to try the chicken on its own for the full effect.

Fish & Grits
Danielle J.

No complaints in the food at all! Everything was delicious. The biscuit had a great outer layer, stayed fluffy and held its own when the chicken was added. The catfish was seasoned well and solid portions were given. The cheese grits were a bit bland but everyone likes their grits different, I doctored mine up with some salt and pepper. This is where I took away a star, the salt shaker was sticky and trying to get my waiters (he was also the only bar tender) was tough. Lastly, the bathroom could have been a bit cleaner, the floor was sticky like a club not even 2 hours of the establishment being open. Overall things were okay, just wish it was a bit cleaner.

We came the week of opening and it was packed and busy the entire time we there. Kitchen definitely felt slammed because our food took a long time. The servers kept coming by to apologize but they were probably not expecting quite the crowd. Overall good chicken not the very best I ever had but good. We enjoyed the fried chicken box, fried catfish box, and the apple pie. The biscuits were nice and service was friendly. I'd come back to revisit once it's not so busy.

I walked in without a reservation before heading to a Liberty game. I was seated promptly and I appreciate being asked if I preferred a table or the bar even though I was dining solo. I ordered the Chicken & Waffles as well as a Sweet Tea. The food came out quickly which was nice since I was headed to Barclays. The chicken was good. Not the best I've ever had but it was good. I did really enjoy the sweet tea because it wasn't overly sweet. The staff was very friendly and helpful.

I was excited to visit this new location but unfortunately the food was underwhelming and disappointing. Don't get me wrong the service was great, friendly staff but the food missed everything. It was so bland no salt nothing. I asked for scrambled eggs with cheese and the eggs weren't even fresh and had no cheese which I was charged extra for the cheese no biggie. The catfish tasted so fishy and bland I had to drown it in Tabasco sauce. The grits were also a no I was confused by the color the cheese they sprinkled on top didn't even melt I was concerned about that. The side of bacon stale and old probably from the day prior. I was the first customer of the day as soon as they opened so it was empty. The mimosa came in a small cup I was surprised. But honestly the food was a no go. They need to change the recipe.

My second visit to this location. First time was fine but this time there were a lot of unforced errors. I used to love the Williamsburg location way back when it first opened. Ordered a painkiller frozen cocktail and piece of pie while waiting for takeaway. Frozen cocktail machine was not yet cold/slushy enough so I had to order something else. Got the bloody mary instead and it was honestly pretty lousy. Got the check and noticed I was charged for the painkiller and not the slightly less expensive bloody mary I got instead. They had to do a void and adjustment to the check. When I got home I noticed that one of the three pieces of chicken was laughably anemic and small. The other two were only acceptably medium-small. Tasted good, though. Coleslaw was a weird joke of a grey porridge. And the kicker? They forgot one of my sides so I had to go back out again and get it. It was okay. And the cost for all of this? Almost 80 bucks! (Though I did and do always tip 20%) I want this place to succeed! Here are some tips: - Fire up that frozen drinks machine before opening so your cocktails are ready to go when you open on a hot day. - Take care when creating the check - Take care not to forget items for takeaway - Ditch the tiny wings and provide larger chicken pieces at such a price - Fix the disappointing bloody mary and coleslaw They're new and I'll probably be back eventually to see if things change.

So I'm walking from Von King Park on a sunny Saturday, and I see patrons chatting, drinking, and…read morelaughing, so we decided to stop in. The waitress was super professional and gave us suggestions from the menu items. She suggested the Peaches Punch (rum and positive vibes) and she did not disappoint. Peaches Punch was sweet and citrus. My fam is southern, migrated from North Carolina to Brooklyn, so I am not a stranger to southern food. My mother was a sou cook in a small water front hotel on the intercostal waterway, so I confess I am a chair side critic of collard greens. I do not like collards simmered too sweet. I also like to add vinegar. So we ordered the fried catfish, cornbread, and collard greens. The catfish arrived seasoned and crispy. I added a dash of Texas Petes hot sauce, they seriously offer a variety of hot sauce. Love it. The collard greens were inviting, aromatic, and tender. The smell of the collards reminded me of Sunday dinner after training. Yes, it tasted old school, I greatly appreciated the southern vibe and the great southern hospitality. The main entrées were affordable and the drinks were worth every penny. This is within walking distance from my home. I will definitely return for collard greens. Please make a date to sit out on the sidewalk and order those collards.

I wish I could only rate the food because it's really good soul, comfort food at a reasonable price…read morebut I have to rate the whole experience. I went on the first nice spring Sunday. They even had outdoor seatings. I clocked the time we sat to actually getting a menu which was 10 mins then then wait from menu to put in an order was 24 minutes. I debated every minute after the 15 to leave but my legs and stomach would not let me lol. When the food came out I was favorite pleased. Honestly the Fried Chicken Platter could feed two. It if hefty portion and it's delicious. Please don't skip the mac and cheese.

Everything was exactly as I remembered -perfectly cooked and well seasoned, large portions with more than enough to take home. The chef stopped by our table which was a nice touch. Service overall was great. They also make great use of such a small space. It is indeed well worth the visit. Side note, we ordered the same exact items off the menu as we did a year ago...only one thing was missing which was the biscuits with the flavored butter jam. We were told the biscuits were replaced with cornbread. I didn't order the cornbread this time around but would like to see the biscuits return at some point.

I wanted to love it so much especially since TikTok critic/MMA fighter Keith Lee visited them in 2023, but my experience was not like his. I want to say that online reviews are almost about accurate. They were out of cold salads and collard greens which was an issue for other customers at times as well. No problem, they were super helpful and offered an alternative but not a good one. I had steamed vegetables that mashed in my mouth like mashed potatoes when I took a bite. I did end up going to another spot for collard greens and potato salad because you can't have soul-food without that. I had the rib dinner with mac n cheese and yams and a tiny piece of complimentary cornbread. The ribs definitely taste amazing but they don't take off the membrane in the back which is slimy and gross. I left that part behind. The yams were sweet and good BUT.....that mac n cheese is NOT soul-food Mac n cheese. Here's the thing I figured out, they use such little cheese but season the noodles very well that you don't truly notice unless you love mac n cheese, which I do, so I noticed it lacked so much cheese but had seasoned noodles. The rib dinner was a 3/5 because ribs were great but sides needed help. I had rice and peas as an additional side and fried wings. The wings were ATROCIOUS! I ate the smallest one and didn't eat the rest. How can you serve such huge feathered wings like that? It was a nightmare. The feathers being on it turned me off. This tells me they don't make their food with care, they move quick to be one and done and I want my food cooked with love and care. They were also frozen wings that were thawed and seasoned, I know the difference. The rice and peas were okay 3/5 as well. Overall the food was not worth the hype. Customer service was beautiful for sure but the food was not it.

My server was very attentive throughout the entire dinner without being overbearing. I wanted to mention her name but unfortunately misplaced my receipt. I love the fact that when I chose the calamari, that they do have the tentacles as well, and not just the rings. For Peaches Prime to meet that one thing was a BIG PLUS to me for a restaurant that looks a little bit more upscale.But the icing on the cake was the fact that I was able to ask for more calamari with the tentacles in less rings so for me that is a win! The drink glasses are quite small like most upscale restaurants are so by the time you put ice in a cup you don't have that much to drink. I ordered shrimp and grits and it has kale in it with mushrooms and the flavor profile was good, but it's not like a southern profile for grits. A southern flavor profile is more rich and hearty. It was good, but the grits were on the runny side. I was provided a fork. I thought it was a small joke at first. You 100% require a spoon and fork with the shrimp and grits. You need a fork for the shrimp and to remove the tails using your butter knife, but to eat the dish you need a spoon. I like the fact that the kitchen did have a little kick of spices. One thing that is always underrated when you go out to eat at a restaurant anywhere in the world, but especially in North America even in Canada, is that food usually comes out to your table warm not hot. But the food came out piping hot and I love that fact. So that's ANOTHER WIN!! They have non-gender restrooms. They were very clean. The hallway that leads to the restrooms seem to be in a different restaurant. I wanted dessert, but I didn't have the room for it after my delicious meal. I definitely will be back but it's not a restaurant that I can come to every week or else. It's not gonna be good for my diet. I would eat too much!

Unfortunately, my experience was extremely disappointing. I came with my family around 2:00 p.m. and immediately noticed that several of the items featured in the Instagram post, like fried catfish and mac and cheese, weren't even on the menu. We ended up ordering the fried fish sandwich, split pea soup, jerk wings, tamarind wings, a salad, and fries. The split pea soup tasted sour, as if it had been sitting for days, and was visibly separated in the bowl. I sent it back because I genuinely felt something was wrong with it, yet no one asked if I wanted a replacement and the soup was still left on our bill. The wings were just as disappointing. The jerk wings were wet, soggy, completely lacking in flavor, and tasted nothing like jerk seasoning. The tamarind wings tasted more like wings covered in sweet-and-sour sauce than tamarind, although at least those were crispy. Sadly, the French fries were probably the only decent thing we had. I really wanted to enjoy this restaurant and support the business, especially after seeing the post online. But based on the food I was served today, I can't see myself returning, even to try the "soul food" offerings that initially caught my attention. The experience was just that bad.
