👍👍 Hands down, the best soulfood in this area! As a country boy from the backwoods of VA who grew up eating this same food from scratch, that's a compliment. I had given up on finding anything like this in the area, but I'm glad I stumbled across this spot. Definitely coming back and sending anyone I k...

👍👍 This Brooklyn foodie is now in love with Newark because of Cornbread Farm to Soul Restaurant. Let’s start with the mac and cheese. It was cooked to perfection. That cheese blend was so gooey and had a nice crust on top. Now on to the meats. The chicken and turkey wings were tender inside but had tha...

👍👍 When it comes to soul food, it’s so hard to find a spot where you really enjoy your entire meal. This place hit all the right spots. Oxtails were great, wings seasoned and fried perfectly, yams were sooo good ( I’m super picky with my yams too.) and the whiting was perfect. No complaints about anyth...

😐 I was near the area and wanted to give this place a try. I ordered online the southern baked chicken, collard and cabbage mix and yellow rice and it said about 30 to 40 minutes and it came to $14.66. I arrived at the restaurant about 20 minutes later and walked in and a few people were waiting. The...

👍👍 First time eating there. I really loved seeing the young ladies working and the way the Sister came out to teach her was so dope. The food was excellent. Hawaiian Fried wings, collards,Mac and cheese, and yams so fulfilling. You guys rock. I will be back real soon.

👍 When looking for a place to eat and catch up with my friend, she came across Top Notch Soultry Delights. What caught our eye was their desserts that we couldn't wait to try! Ambiance/Parking: Located right off of 22, they have a sign in front of the path you need to make a right at. There's parking...

👍👍 The chicken wings were amazing. Enough meat on them and fried to perfection. Everything felt fresh. I do have to agree with other reviews, the food taste safe. What I mean by safe is that it’s clean and very low on salt. So if you have health concerns and or feeding a child this may be the spot for...

😠 This place was a absolute nightmare. The restaurant smells,the first red flag. I thought ah support black business. The food was rank smelling, second red flag. I tell no lies. The lady was rude with a screwed up look on her face. Third red flag 🚩 The chicken was drywall. I picked at it and p...

😠 My parents said they heard the food was good here. I'm a foodie, so I try it and buy for the family. These great reviews must be from the staff or people in the city who only eat Chinese food so, of course the food here is amazing to them. The yams have to have to much cinnamon. Why is there cinnamo...

🫤 This is my second time going to the restaurant my first time I had the smothered pork chops with Mac and cheese and collard greens, and the second order was baked turkey wings and the same sides. I thought the smothered pork chops was made in gravy.( NOPE) they fried the chops the poured gravy over...

🫤 The atmosphere is nice, the waitress are nice but we waited about 45 min just to receive cold food. At the present time I would not recommend the food. I am taken it home to put in my own microwave. COLD in a hot facility. Young crowd. GREAT HOUSE MUSIC oh got there around 10 pm and no fried white...
