“ Always a line. Deep in the Harlem ghetto, this place is a gem! I got salmon and pork ribs. Both excellent. I've had their roasted full chickens, spanish rice and beans, plantains, and love it! This is the type of place you bring home a massive bag of food to your family in New jersey on a Friday after work! Bonus - the dessert fridge has some delicious treats!!! ”
