Jason DepeauxFebruary 19, 2012Order by the actual name of the food if you don't want to look like a tourist.
Elle WaltonAugust 17, 2013The worst service in the world, whoever the lady is at the register needs to realize she's in the food service business and if you don't like your job go back to school.
Greg BattleSeptember 28, 2009Order the white smothered Al Sharpton (white meat fried chicken and waffle smothered with gravy).
- Kathryn YuMarch 22, 2009Go to Amy Ruth's and order fried chicken and waffles. Douse with hot sauce and maple syrup. Enjoy.
LaTanya B. 🌍💥👙👩👧🙏🏾🇺🇸🇧🇸🍫🌊🎾🎸✈️August 4, 2017I had the fried catfish sandwich. $15 for two skinny pieces of (tasty) catfish on a bun with wilted lettuce and a slimy tomato. Not at all impressed.
ZakiyahFebruary 4, 2012Usually a bit of a wait. Avoid Sunday's unless you like tourists and slow service. The food isn't the best soul food in the city.
Julian FischerMay 25, 2012Not bad but not really good either. Better skip the steak here, add a couple of bugs and go to Wolfgang's.
Özge aOctober 24, 2017Kızarmış tavuk ve kaburga gerçekten muhteşem.Yemeklerin yanında seçebileceğin bir çok ek var.Cole slaw, patates salatası ve mısır efsane.Porsiyonlar büyük doyurucu. Harlem'e gelenler mutlaka uğramalı.
MonibruDecember 8, 2014Pedir el waffle de alitas de pollo si tenes mucho hambre igual te llena. Hay que esperar habitualmente pero vale la pena. No hay wifi.
Dunia TorresSeptember 28, 2015La comida del alma de los domingos es un imprescindible para cualquier estómago :)
Jp AlissOctober 20, 2018El pollo es muy rico, aunque los precios son altísimos, la cocina no es limpia y los baños mucho menos. No lo recimiendo.

"Love my park. I've been taking 6 mile walks around Central Park 3 times a week. Sheep's Meadow is a great place to hang out for a picnic. Tavern on the Green is an awesome spot to grab a drink."
