I know I have said it before. But now I'm sad. My go to is the salmon fillet with mashed potatoes and corn. Or zucchini. Almost 98% of the time it's awesome. I'm sad because when they don't have that and I order something else it unfortunately isn't to my liking. They had salmon today and it was awesome. Always good servings. And the delivery guy already knows me and is super nice!! Don't forget to tip your delivery drivers well. Still need to go to the actual place and check it out. read more

Pot Liquor and Cornbread - Ate the broccoli and it was delicious. This is my favorite dish here!! - Soul Food Near Me - Queens, New York

Seems to be permanently closed. It has been closed for about 3 weeks, so unlikely that this is due to a vacation. It was run by very nice people. read more

Delicious, hearty food on a cold day is exactly what I wanted and what I received! I got a soul food plate with beef stew, Mac and cheese and collard greens. The Mac was sooo good. I'll be back. read more

I came in to try this spot after seeing it pop up on Uber eats. They have a vast menu of southern food and they definitely have some gooood comfort food. I ordered to-go but there is seating if you want to eat in the restaurant. I ordered the fried catfish entree with macaroni and yams. All of their entrees come with two sides and cornbread. The cornbread was delicious, and the fried catfish was fried perfectly! The employee who took my order was attentive and helpful. Once I ordered I waited about 10 minutes and my fresh fish was ready to go! I would definitely come back to try the pizza and the ribs. read more

The food here is absolutely incredible. You can smell the deliciousness the moment you walk through the door. I ordered oxtails, mashed potatoes, mac and cheese, lemon pepper wings, jerk chicken, and rice and beans. Every single dish was outstanding. The oxtails were fall‑off‑the‑bone tender, and each side was packed with flavor. The staff was warm and welcoming, and you can tell they work well together, creating such a positive atmosphere. I will definitely be coming back. This place is a true hidden gem and wonderful addition to Astoria's restaurant scene. read more

The main guy (owner) takes so much pride in the quality of the food he serves and you could totally tell as everything that we tried was excellent. I thought that every type of specialty pizza was already out in the world, but they offered 2 types that I had never tried before. The biscuits and gravy pizza was very good. I did not try the oxtail pizza as I was getting stuffed but I kind of wish I would have as everything the served was delicious and made with tons of love. I sampled a few types of cornbread and they were all really good. I had a rib and it was very meaty and delicious. My son had the mac and cheese and we both agreed that it was excellent. I think that the name of the restaurant is very cool. Altogether, this was an amazing stop on the food crawl. Everything I tried was excellent and the enthusiasm for us and the food was evident. read more

They were so disappointing and not worth the money. I have now been here twice, once in February and most recently in September. The Southern-style Cajun food looked so awful that I just ended up getting some slices of their pizza. In addition, I ordered a coffee with milk and sugar, which was so watered down that I couldn't finish it. The restaurant itself is not clean. The tables were dirty, and the appearance was more like a grubby deli than a decent eatery. I will not be back -such a lack of effort was on full display, even allowing a large dog into the dining area which no one complained about. read more

Ordered from here one night after a failed order attempt at my local place. Absolutely glad I did. We ordered ribs, oxtail, jerk chicken, baked mac and everything was awesome. Delivery was on time, food was great, no complaints. Family is looking forward to eating from here again. read more

First time take out order and we were so absolutely pleased. I got the Oxtail pizza slice, which was crispy and yummy. It hit all the right cravings. 100% recommend. Originally, hubs wanted pork chops but they ran out so he got the quarter rack bbq ribs and our daughter got the fried chicken. The meat fell off the bone and the fried chicken batter was chock full of flavor. So very well seasoned. They both opted for Macaroni and Cheese and Potato salad as their sides. Both solid and very tasty. The Mac and cheese was creamy and definitely homemade. None of that boxed stuff. Corn bread was on point and they loved the biscuits! I was going to try but my husband said it had a baconesque flavor and so I decided against it in the event they are made with bacon fat. I chose many years ago not to eat pork so my loss, I guess. They really enjoyed everything, as did I and I'm so glad their Instagram post jogged my memory and pushed me to order as I totally forgot they opened up. Bonus! They sent along a complimentary slice of pie and a piece of cake, which were AHHHHMAAAZING! Sadly I didn't take any pictures. We were all so hungry we just dug right in. Highly recommend. Food is delicious. Price is right on point! read more

Pot Liquor and Cornbread - Kick ass oxtail! - Soul Food Near Me - Queens, New York

Everything was great. Visited this past Saturday and it was closed. It now shows permanently closed. I am upset because the food was excellent. The cornbread was exactly how I loved it and the yams were delicious. I dont know why they closed but they will be missed. read more

Just got my first delivery from this place on a whim and holy sweet potatoes: mind blown! I rarely write reviews but wow wow wow: the sweet potatoes are just another world. The collard green are so savory. The Mac is creamy and authentic. I don't even like cornbread but this one was a little crispy on the outside and moist on the inside. Check them out; I know this place is going on regular rotation read more

Jerk tacos supreme! Mac and cheese was so good. Prices are a good value for the taste and quality. Long live Pot Liquor n Cornbread.

You forgot my cornbread. The cornbread reminds me of home and that's what made me come back.

Very kind and friendly staff, a bit scattered but attentive and friendly. The price for the portions was very reasonable. The items were packed to go with care. There is a very extensive array of items on the menu. Unfortunately the food was very disappointing, despite looking promising. Wish it were otherwise. The whiting itself was very dry and had the chemically taste some frys have depending on the supplier. Good amount of breading, not too much. No tartar sauce. The mac and cheese was ok, much more oily than ideal. The greens are marinated in sugar which is far less common than savory, therefore wish they were labeled as such. The biscuit was dry and overworked, with the only flavor being that of flour. Overall the food seemed haphazard and kind of just put together vs. tried and true recipes and techniques executed with care. Suggest trying other things on the menu besides these items if they interest you, and hope they suit you. read more

Amazing food, I'm obsessed with the catfish! The service was also lovely, didn't feel transactional.

Was told this was the best soul food in NYC by someone who I believe does not know soul food whatsoever. I think I may have been a victim here of being overhyped. Its not BAD food, its just ok imo. Hard to beat the price but I would rather go to 5 other places for good soul food in NYC. It feels a little run down inside but the people are nice on another level and provide good service. Not enough for me to yearn to go back I fear. read more

On Juneteenth me a couple of my co workers decided to have a little food celebration and have soul food. I found this restaurant on Uber eats and looked on tik tok and decided we should get food from here. The food was good we order too much food. But overall the food was great, the greens were too sweet for me but everything else was fine. The restaurant gave us free pies & cakes it was so good. Thank you read more

I was a huge fan of this place but they quickly changed their portions and ingredients. I ordered ribs and it was sooo dry they just threw a ton of BBQ sauce on it to cover it up. I ordered the brisked which was not cheap and it literally came with 1 slice for almost $17-$18 read more

Pot Liquor and Cornbread - One slice of brisket for almost $18 - Soul Food Near Me - Queens, New York

This is another menu being serviced out of a pizza place, and it sounds like this is a new venture. The food was uneven. Under-cooked brisket and canned corn - excellent yams and ribs. Order was late and two items were missing (cornbread and carrots). When I called, they seemed underwater. They have work to do on the food quality, food order/prep planning, and timeliness. read more

Pulled pork sandwich and corn muffins were delicious. Meatloaf was ok, nothing special. Service was good, they were very nice. I would go again and try something else. read more

was feeling under the weather, had their chicken soup. wow. delicious. Hearty. The quintessential sopa de pollo. opened up my sinus's, got the color back in my skin. feeling a helluva lot better. coincidence? I don't think so. my only complaint is now I have to go to work tomorrow. lol read more

walking past the name caught my attention. Pot liquor is a debate in the soul/southern food community, your either a leave it in the pot or drink it with your greens or dunk the cornbread kind of person. Their pot liquor converted me to a drink/dunk person. Luis was attentive , courteous and generous. The greens, the Mac and cheese, the candied yams and rice and beans are on point. The brisket tender and peppery. Too bad I can't get delivery to Manhattan. Will have to plan a detour to Queens again very soon. read more

The shrimp and grits were amazing, but the potato salad was pretty bad as they were raw potatoes. Love the cornbread, the Mac and cheese was fine, but a little greasy. read more

Man, this place is legit. Some good old fashioned soul food. Great service and delicious food served with a smile.

I've been here several times and the food is amazing. The pizza with oxtail is so delicious and I also got there ribs , Mac & cheese , collard greens cornbread everything I get is always delicious I'll definitely will be ordering for my family for thanksgiving. The owner is extremely very nice, I definitely recommend this place read more

I was ok with their food but today was the ultimate disappointment. I ordered 8-piece whiting and fries for $30. I couldnt eat it: the fish was dry, the crust was hard. I thrrw the whole thing in the trash!! I will never order from here again after today. read more

Honestly, I'm not sure if this is really run by someone who is familiar with southern cuisine. What a waste of $60.00. The order was incomplete. The food was awful. True southern collard greens should NOT be sweet. Macaroni and cheese should NOT have dry spots of powdered cheese (ie; box macaroni and cheese with packets). I ordered the carrot cake but received a chocolate cake and a too tart blueberry pie. The steak and Onions were unfortunately mixed in with the oddly sweet collard greens and the garlic broccoli so you can imagine how that tasted... It was awful! The quarter rack BBQ ribs were in the same container with the mac and cheese, which caused flavor transfer. It was not very delicious. Also, the cornbread was just a big dry biscuit. The banana Pudding was watery. The potato salad was meh! I Thought I would give this new "soul food" restaurant a try being in the neighborhood and I was so disappointed. read more

ok they got sangria and pizza ,c'mon that in itself is awesome !!! this is a hole in the wall sweet spot...souther oxtails on point (southern not jamaican) ...cornbread on point...beef stew on point...collard greens on point...ell they even got old school kool aid also on point...don't come in here with that health crap , this is good old style comfort food !!! read more
