This place has amazing food! I found it when I was googling restaurants in Trenton. I'm a new resident and I'm checking out good places to eat. The reviews were good and I am happy to add another 5 star review to their page. The fish was seasoned perfectly. Not too salty but big on flavor. The mac and cheese was very good. It reminds me of soul food in the South. The cabbage was also good. Overall the food was seasoned well. The lady behind the counter was very pleasant and I didn't have to wait too long for my food. I will definitely eat from there again. I can't wait to try the Caribbean food.

The curry goat wasn’t bad but tiny pieces. The oxtail, TOUGH, as if it was burnt in the pot. Very hard to chew. The candied yams & cabbage were very good. First time trying and I won’t be coming back. Enjoyable experience. Thank you.

ard to maker it home without wanting to take a bite. The restaurant was super clean both inside and out. I think it is a husband and wife that own and run it along with their daughter. What I typically find is that soul food places up north usually make good meats and proteins, but their sides are mediocre. Trust me when I tell you. Not this place. Jean's kitchen nailed everything. I ordered the fried bass platter candied yams and cabbage for my sides. The fish was a nice golden brown and fried to perfection. I hate to say it but the yams rival my Mama's, which that is not easy to do and the cabbage may be the best I tasted in forever. I also got a order of wings which were fried nicely as well, a little too salty for me, but I'm not really a fan of salt. It came with a piece of cornbread all I'll say about that is......THAT CORNBREAD UMMMM UMMM UMMM. The prices and portions are good. This will be my go to spot when I want to treat myself. Jean's kitchen staff, you all are doing an awesome job keep it up.

Great hours with weekend options and open during the week. Takeaway only. Famous for their turkey legs which were out when I was there. Tender oxtails, though portions could be slightly better. Best collards in town.

I got a fried shrimp platter with mac & cheese and yams. And a side of fried wings. Yams were super good. The shrimp and chicken wings were seasoned good. Chicken could have been crispier but I got it delivered. The Mac was good but I just assumed it was baked mac which it wasn’t but still had a good flavor would definitely order again.
