    Nice to meet this lovely lady co-owner Traci. Aloha!
    Gina E.

    Mom and pop restaurant that cooks up some delicious home style soul food. I had the whiting fish and shrimp plate with Mac & cheese and rice with gravy. Yummy! My friends had fish, chicken wings and pork chops smothered with gravy. All Yummy! Prices are average. Street side parking. Take out only. The real gem? Mrs. Traci. She was warm and welcoming. Treated us like family when we walked in the door. We also met her husband Phil when they came outside to deliver our food. Mahalo for the Philly love. Will we return? Absolutely!

    I love Delaney's and when you go you'll know why! I go at least once a week because the food is cooked with love and always consistent. Great value too! Go support a small business with amazing owners and get you some good soul food!

    I've been visiting here for several years, and I can honestly say I haven't had a single bad meal.

    I was in the mood for this food today. The great Yelp reviews brought me here. Look, I'm not going to say that I'm an expert on soul food. I've had my share in my life. But I won't tell you what makes this better than others. I'm not that qualified. But the bottom line is this. As I ate it, I felt like I was eating something special made with love. I'd drive back here just for the whiting fish and mac and cheese alone. The wings had the perfect crisp. Just look at the food on my plate in this picture. Then drove yourself into Yeadon right by the Septa station and get yourself some of this. Don't argue with me. Just do it!

    Love supporting local businesses, and I stopped in here on a random Sunday afternoon. The staff was welcoming and had smiles on their faces so I rate the customer service a 100%. The quality of the food however, was not my favorite. My friend and I both ordered pretty much the same thing and agreed that the fish wasn't it's freshest, the collards were dry and the macaroni salad was made with rigatoni noodles and not macaroni but wasn't bad so I'll just say it was poorly advertised. I would be willing to give this place another shot because the staff won me over, but I'd keep improving the recipes and wait time because 45 minutes is a long time for fried fish and pre-made sides. P.S. This place is a little pricey BUT the portion sizes are well worth it!!

    I did start at the fish;) 3 Wings and 2 Piece Whiting with 2 Sides. Delicious!!!

It's tucked away in a residential neighborhood. When I walked in it felt comfortable. The vibe was your family friendly neighborhood locals. I sat at the bar to place my order. I like the friendly relaxed vibe, pool tables a live Dj on a Tuesday evening was a nice touch. I ORDERD THE FRIES WHITING PLATTER My sides were Mac n cheese and string beans. I also order 2 single whole Fried wings and a side of sweet potatoes. The fish was crispy not salty nice portion. The flavor was good not salty or greasy or over cooked very pleasant to the taste buds! I like it very much The yams had a lot of nutmeg, it overpowered the actual sweet potatoe taste if you like that.. The string beans, Mac and wings were good I paid $42.00 for the platter 2 wings a side of sweets and 2 drinks. My money went a long way here. I really enjoyed the food. This is a must try !!! You won't be disappointed. You might actually find your self back a second time because it's just that kind of vibe!!!

I told her early in the night that I was driving so I wanted one drink only. And as the night went on, people kept asking to buy me drinks and she said nope, she's driving, no drinks for her! I love a girls girl!! Now on to this good ol southern cooking. LAWD HAVE MERCY! I felt like I was in my nana Alabama kitchen all over again. That whiting was finger-licking good. It was fried just right and the flavor was perfect. Them collards?! I couldn't even wait to get home to eat them with my bra off. They were DELICIOUS. That baked Mac n cheese was old skool with no extra bs in it. The pull was perfect and the consistency was on point. I will DEFINITELY be back... more times than I'd like to admit lmfao. Thank you Carletta's!!!

This was my second time ordering from them & I am pleased again w my food. I ordered the full chicken wing platter w bourbon sauce on the side, potatoes salad, Mac & cheese & yams on the side. I will say this place is like any other the food is always some type of different but good. The yams this time were out of this world, even better than last time. The fried chicken is nice & crispy. The only thing I would say is I feel the chicken needs a bit of salt. But still good. The bourbon sauce was better this time also. The Mac & cheese is good but weird in texture. Idk how to explain it. The potato salad is delicious!!! To wrap this up I will be back it's definitely not a must spot but it is good & hit the spot.

Now this might be because I grew up in the south but the greens were ok not my favorite but I would eat them again. I personally prefer them to be more cooked and soft but they have a pretty decent flavor. Now the Mac was my least favorite. It is basically noodles and pepper. Mine BARELY had cheese. It's mac & CHEESE. Where's the cheese
