Sondra Tusa: Try the market sides- i recommend sweet potato fries and broccoli!
Taylor Foxman: Sweet potato fries, turkey chili, Dijon brussel sprouts, ovesized salads - the list goes on #obsessed
Sari Nicole: Best sweet potato fries I've ever had. Lemon asparagus with parmesan is delicious. Brussel sprouts everyone raves about arent that good- really goopy & too much sauce. Grilled tuna steak for the win

Chelsea Balkan: #FabuLIST #DubiDO truffle mac and cheese, avocado, angry sweet potato, and edamame dumplings. Didn't love the tuna tataki or Korean pancake

Kaitlin Siemering: Adorable new Australian café on Sullivan St! Pop in to grab a coffee or sit down and enjoy something off their food menu. We had the sweet potato smash and bacon and egg roll - both were delicious.
Ben Mackey: The sweet potato smash is a worthy competitor to the humble avo toast.
Avinash Salgam: Try the pulled pork baguette and the smashed sweet potato. Be sure to get the poached egg with the sweet potato, it's a nice compliment to the dish.

FoodtoEat: Absolutely phenomenal BBQ with a fun atmosphere. Order the "Sweetheart Deal for Two" for BBQ and four sides! The Roasted Whipped Sweet Potatoes with Spicy Nut topping is out of this world!
JP: Best BBQ in NYC. The best ribs and brisket, very good pulled pork. Try the Mac & cheese, whipped sweet potatoes, and Syracuse salt potatoes as sides. Oh, not to mention the cornbread... So delicious
David Zhang: The sweet potato purée is amazing. All of their sides are fantastic actually. But the main dishes are just solid, not amazing.

Niki Alexander: Brunch must order: bread basket with sweet potato bread!
Halstead Property: Best soul food joint in Harlem, there's even music and dancing downstairs on Friday and Saturdays. Exceptional corn bread. Get the yard chicken and then have the sweet potato donuts for dessert.
Laura Lachman: Yard bird and Mac and greens. Appetizer tacos were a perfect light starter. For dessert get the sweet potato donuts. Make sure you go downstairs for some live music, cocktails and dancing.
Rebecca Brian: sweet potato knish is the best!
Gothamist: Though you can get a wide variety of knishes here—mashed potato, mushroom, spinach, etc.—their cakelike sweet potato knishes are the key to turning around any bad day. Read more.
Harumi U: Sweet kind separates them from other knish places. Sweet potato could get sold out early but try other sorry knish if that's the case.

Anson Wang: BBQ pork buns were amazing. Pork bone was better than kimchi but both were awesome, really down to personal preference. Sweet potato fries made me believe in God again.
Tiffany: can't go wrong with the uni/mushroom/truffle ramen, but also try the spicy miso and the sweet potato fries!
Ruby Anaya: Spicy pork bone ramen comes with thin noodles and a perfect egg. Not really spicy at all, but tasty! You can't leave without trying the fried sweet potatoes - the light maple syrup is amaze.

Meng Ai: Spam, Beef Tendon and Sweet Potato are def worth trying for the dry pot. Also the Savory Egg Custard is good to balance out the spiciness of the pot. The back room is very large party friendly!
emily chen: dry szechuan hot pot. get the liangfen and husband & wife apps to start. egg custard and a hotpot w/8 ingredients to split btwn 2 ppl. recommend the sweet potato, tripe, beef, and veggies/shrooms.👌🏼
Susan S.: Such delicious dry hot pot! The fish was fantastic, it was so seriously so delicious. I highly recommend the glass noodles and sweet potatoes. This is my new favorite place!!!
