    DELICIOUS, clean place & kind service. Some of the most perfect take out I've ever had. I'm from Staten Island and gonna have to come here every time I go to Walmart down the street hahaha. The yams were so perfect and Mac and cheese was UNREAL. Pounds of food, the portions were huge! Plate was overflowing & heavy!!!

    Fried WHITING

    I ordered dinner on GrubHub and my expectations were low. I haven't had great experiences with soul food in Woodbridge. But omgggg this food was sooooo good!! Fish was perfectly seasoned and fried nicely. The yams were the perfect sweetness and the collard greens were perfect...seasoning was great with a good amount of meat!! I can't wait to try other options on their menu!!

    I've been coming here regularly for a month and it is definitely consistent with tasty food and great service. They give big portions of everything. Some of my favorites are the bbq beef ribs, honey wings, smothered turkey chops, Mac n cheese, potatoe salad and whiting fish. Mike is the man.

    I've driven past this place many times and am glad that I stopped at this diamond in the rough! For starters, the fish was fried to perfection with a good amount of flavor packed in. As were the wings! I went with the sticky candied wings, which were indeed sweet but not super stinky (fortunately). As good as the wings and fish were, I'd have to say the Mac might've slightly edged them out to be the star of the meal. My son said it could've used a tad bit more cheese but we both agreed the flavor profile was still there and doing SUMMERSAULTS; I was good with the cheese ratio for the record. The greens were good but unfortunately they weren't the same temp as everything else, but again the flavor hit, so I won't deduct that from the experience being enjoyable. The sleeper were the yams tho, hands down; because based on looks, I had low expectations, but they were sweeeeeeT, thru and thru! I could taste da brown sugar in the glaze (pause), and each bite was more enjoyable than the last. Overall this was a cool find. The two brothas behind the counter were courteous and professional, and the inside was clean and presentable. I'll def be returning and suggesting this spot to others in the future!

    Candied Yams Mac and cheese WHITING

    I ordered the BBQ chicken and got the whiting fish instead. This is fine with me since I was debating between the whiting and the chicken. The fish was very flavorful, slightly dry to my liking, but the breading was crispy and stuck to the fish perfectly not falling off. Candied yams were amazing, not too sweet, perfect consistency. The Mac and cheese was also a hit packed with cheese and well seasoned giving a good complement to the fish and yams. Great little spot, that also has daily specials like brisket.would recommend for sure!

    Candied yams $6 delicious!

    was hoping to find a soul food restaurant in the Woodbridge area as we were going to be there today. We saw that the Florida Grove location soul food restaurant came up but we were like oh we don't like that place it's stinky (literally) BUT then we realized it has a NEW NAME and NEW OWNERS, and it's SO clean and smells delicious and it's called Sole Food BBQ. so you should run, not walk there and order some delicious food. We got the Whiting dinner with collard greens and mac & cheese. And we also bought the smothered turkey wings over rice with stuffing and collard greens, and one extra side of candied yams. when the smothered gravy hits the rice, it almost gives it a risotto texture, so delicious. Rich and creamy and delicious. The only small complaint is the collard greens are a little salty. But everything was nicely portioned. The owners are so nice on the phone and in person. Wishing them all the luck in the world. Be sure to ask for the daily specials. Today's was the smothered turkey wings. We also got the grandma iced tea, which my husband loved. be sure to stop at this family owned business and show them some love.

    Someone suggested that I come and try this place out so I wanted to make sure that I came to try it out hands-down this is the greatest Soulfood barbecue place in New Jersey possibly the country. Each and every bite is filled with flavor, love and blissful happiness. It's more of a takeout spot however they do have limited seating for two people or so the mac & cheese was delicious each and every bite was filled with cheesy goodness my daughter had the wings and couldn't resist eating it down to the bone. The ribs were nothing short of amazing. I had to pause so many times to make sure that this was real because I've been searching for a great Soulfood spot for quite some time. I'm so happy I don't have to look any further and I also hear they do catering. Can't wait to possibly book them for Thanksgiving. Everyone should try this place and support consistently so they can stay open because this is something that we need in our lives.

    PSA the best kept dessert secret in Woodbridge, New Jersey is Yo Delight!…read more While they are known for their frozen yogurt, they also make the most delicious and mouthwatering dessert your taste buds will ever try! The s'mores crêpe was ooey, gooey, and so chocolatey. Basically campfire heaven wrapped in a crepe. The Dubai chocolate waffle was a masterpiece I wish I could have for breakfast at home. Dripped in pistachio sauce and Nutella, one bite of this waffle will send you to paradise. The lava cake was warm rich and delectable. Paired with vanilla ice cream, the two make a dynamic dessert duo. They even have delicious drink options here. We got the brown sugar Boba tea which had had chewy pearls, silky milk, and rich brown sugar syrup. Perfect way to satisfy my sweet tooth on the go. And the Strawberry Matcha iced latte was the drink I didn't know I needed. It was vibrant, refreshing and the prettiest iced latte in the game. Yo Delight is there to also meet your fro-yo and ice cream needs which you can enjoy year round. I highly recommend having some dessert here, especially in the fall and winter months. The store has plenty of seating and lots of fun activities like board games, coloring sheets for kids, and even iPads to keep you entertained on a cold day. Very friendly staff and they did such a great job making the desserts look amazing!

    I've been coming here for Froyo for years! It's remained consistently good and I always leave…read moresatisfied :)

    This place is a gem and really deserves to be highlighted! Although it looks like a small shop on…read moreMain Street in Metuchen, it's a booming and popular bubble tea place. Love coming here and seeing people from toddler age to folks with their grandparents. Bubble tea is for all! My husband loves to try the new fruity varieties that get added to the menu. Every few weeks there is a new, unique fruit combination that blows him away. I stick to my tried and true Thai iced tea with boba, and NOWHERE else has been able to compete. The details are what makes this place stand out. If you buy multiple drinks, they place your order in an adorable, reusable purple bag. Also, there is a rewards program. So if you're an avid boba drinker, make sure you sign up. Every few orders you can score a free bite to eat or bubble tea. Since it's a hit spot, this place can get packed at peak times (post work hours, and especially on weekends). So happy to have such a lovely shop in my town. Thanks, Akihi!

The inside was very different from your usual bubble tea spot, and it was very welcoming and cozy. I could definitely see myself just chilling and reading a book while enjoying my food and drink. I placed my order through the kiosk while looking over the menu, which had a lot of good options. I couldn't make up my mind and decided to go with the bubble tea and Oreo waffle crepe. Both items were good, and I enjoyed the waffle, which had ice cream as the filling and was stuffed with fillings, but it was a little difficult to eat since the wrapper is not very practical, and I had to use my hands, so it got a bit messy. Did I regret it? No way, I loved it; hopefully, they would just have a better container for it, lol. Definitely will get a sugar rush, so be careful hahaha. I would definitely go back to try the other flavors
