Order by the actual name of the food if you don't want to look like a tourist.

Slaw & cornbread weren't great. Mac & cheese was pretty good.
Juliana StockMarch 5, 2010
Total yum, 2 full dinners can feed 4 bc each entree comes with 2 sides.

They now accept credit cards :)
Elle WaltonAugust 17, 2013
The 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.

Can't do much better than the Al Sharpton!
Gordon WilliamsAugust 30, 2012

Go to Amy Ruth's and order fried chicken and waffles. Douse with hot sauce and maple syrup. Enjoy.

I 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.
Eva EwenFebruary 21, 2011
Most racist resturant ever but sooo yummy.
TimaZ T.May 28, 2012

Catfish here is awesome. :-)

Soul Food Supreme everyone smiles for real up in here!
ZakiyahFebruary 4, 2012
Usually 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, 2012
Not bad but not really good either. Better skip the steak here, add a couple of bugs and go to Wolfgang's.
FoodspottingJanuary 10, 2011

Kızarmış 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, 2014
Pedir 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, 2015
La comida del alma de los domingos es un imprescindible para cualquier estómago :)
Jp AlissOctober 20, 2018
El pollo es muy rico, aunque los precios son altísimos, la cocina no es limpia y los baños mucho menos. No lo recimiendo.
Victor PinedaJanuary 13, 2015
Los wafles son muy sabrosos.
Jp AlissOctober 15, 2018
Extremadamente caro para lo que uno recibe, absolutamente sobrevalorado ...
