    Side of French Fries
    Latoya L.

    Services was good. Food was underwhelming. The chicken had no flavor, the mac and cheese was horrible. The best thing was the crispy fries and corn bread.

    Boneless chicken
    Shane N.

    The chicken was juicy and breaded well and the honey mustard was pretty good. The workers were quick and friendly. And the restaurant is very small with limited seating.

    The food was amazing! I got 3 thighs, 1 leg, mac and cheese, a dinner roll and cornbread. I am from baltimore and I have to say, this is one if the best fried chickens I have ever tasted! Give this 5 out of 5! It was very aftordable as well! Plus, the guy at the counter was very nice and provided great service! 10/10 - Gabriel

    10 Pieces Big Buffalo Wings
    Kathy T.

    You can taste the fried crispiness and salt they have added into the batter is just right. It took us another 20 minutes to get home and it was still good. We got the spiciest level for the buffalo wings, which was pretty spicy and invigorating. The sauce is nice and tangy. The sides we got were: spicy rice (didn't taste spicy to us), green beans (cooked perfectly with carrots), and mashed potatoes (mashed with skin and flavorful without gravy). There was no dining in available, so we picked it up. It was swift and we had no problems with our order. We ordered through Yelp, powered by GrubHub. We will be ordering from here again!

    2 Piece Chatanooga Fried Chicken
    Allie A.

    Finally got around to coming here today, I've had it bookmarked for a long time now! I got a 2 piece dark meat, an order of fries, and a piece of cornbread for takeout. The chicken was crispy and had a nice crunch, flavor was good but a bit underwhelming. The fries were fresh and crispy, and the amount they give you is enough for 2 people at least! The cornbread was basic but good. Overall, its nothing I would rush to come back for but if you have a fried chicken craving it's worth stopping by. I'm sure I'll be back at some point!

    7 Pieces Regular Fried Shrimp and 4 Piece Chatanooga Fried Chicken, with Corn Bread and French Fries
    Amelia C.

    Best fried chicken in the neighborhood. We ordered the wings in 24k gold sauce and 4 piece (dark meat only) Chattanooga fried chicken, accompanied with a side of fries and Mac n cheese. Everything was delicious especially the fried chicken with its crisp and well seasoned batter. The wings are very sauced up - recommend if you like your wings saucy. The side of fries is humongous - quite filling and the mac n cheese is covered in a rich cheddar like sauce. This is definitely a pick up and go kind of place. Very little s

    We had them deliver some food to us for a working lunch today and I was pleasantly surprised. The chicken was pretty good! The fried chicken was seasoned pretty good, not saying it's the best, but much better than I expected, as I wouldn't come to Montclair for fried chicken to be honest. Their grilled (or maybe baked, not sure since I didn't order it) chicken was pretty tasty also. It had a nice charred taste it, which made me assume it was grilled. The fries are coated and seasoned which I like, but you have to eat em while their hot or warm at best, else they tend to soak up the grease. The salad was wonderful, nice mix of greens and the a fresh juicy tomato, with the shaved Parmesan cheese as a nice finishing touch! The chicken fingers were buff and juicy, not as well seasoned as the fried chicken, and the breading wasn't as thick, which isn't a complain, but you can totally taste the difference between the fried chicken and the chicken tenders, not all places can accomplish this. Ultimately they were a good luck and very filling. Now, as for the STAR of the meal, and I'm not a super big fan of this in general, I mean I'll eat it, but not something I look forward too or bank on, but their CORN BREAD is rooooooooooooockiNG!!! I mean their corn bread was so frikkin good bro.. sweet.. moist.. maintained its texture and composure without crumbling in your hand if you broke off a piece.. I mean, man listen, like I said I'm not a "cornbread guy" but theirs was soooo yummy that I had to show love on that alone! I would give this place 5 stars but the chicken wasn't THAT out of this world.. yet it's good enough that I can't hate or knock em, as it did hit the spot and I went back for 2nds and 3rds!! Lol

    3 Piece Jumbo Chicken Tenders
    Jojo B.

    Decided to try this place out after seeing the reviews. I had placed an order online. Initially my card showed a pending charge for the order so I thought everything went through. A couple of moments later, I received an email that there was a problem with the order. I called the restaurant and they said the order did not go through and took my order over the phone, which ended up being more money for the same items than the online order. ?????? Only by a couple of dollars. Moving along, I was told 30 minutes which was cool since I was still at work. When I arrived it was actually 40minutes later and yet my order was still not ready. I ended up waiting about an additional 15-20 minutes for my order. Yikes!!!!! So now let's get to the good stuff, the food...... I ordered Chicken tenders, Buffalo wings, Fried Chicken, and the cornbread. The tenders were good, the meat was not dry and the sauces I choose were tasty - 24Karat Gold sauce The Fried chick was okay, nothing I haven't had before and they didn't stand out. The Buffalo wings were very tasty, spicy just the way I like. Lastly, the cornbread....... It was on point ya'll Final Thoughts: Overall, it was tasty but the prices were definitely too high for the quantity and quality of food, and the wait was definitely a downer. Would I return? Maybe, probably..... not in a rush to do so though.

    4 pieces chicken, cornbread, fries. The pizza were homemade.

    Decent fried chicken made by white people in Montclair. We ordered delivery and it came within a decent time. Although, Boo Boo was not hangry and I was distracted by football on TV. Ordering through yelp was seamless and our order was correct. You can add tip there as well. I inhaled the 4 piece fried chicken corn bread. Boo Boo got the buffalo chicken fingers and we shared mashed potato and cole slaw. The food was good. It hit the spot for a lazy Friday. I've called ahead before but i had to wait 20 minutes because my food was not done yet and they were super busy that time on Friday.

    Is the 24K sauce a euphemism or is the sauce edible gold sauce?

    It tastes like honey barbecue - good as gold!

    Groovy Southern food meets refined semi-upscale downtown. What do we get?…read moreBreaded okra. Kiss my grits, but we aren't always talking BBQ when we're in the South. I've had me some soul food in Mississippi and 'Bama, though at a fraction of the price you get up North. Look, it's a Montclair thing. Pluses: Black owned restaurant serving cultural staples, plus foods for people who don't want Southern. Ambiance featured soul music, and at one point was playing Shaft! I can dig it. You're not left wanting for food quantity or quality. Plenty of shrimp in the grits, for example. Server was very pleasant to talk to with a little Southern twang to her voice. Why not five stars: Flavor needs deepening. For example, in the South I'm used to seeing okra chopped and breaded before being fried. Maybe more oily that way, more carbs... but more flavor as a result. I had the pulled chicken mac, which was a bit smaller of a dish overall (a bit intentional on my part) - and while the cheese flavors run deep, the meat did not. Shrimp and grits, I took a quick sample of my friend's grits and... I bet you can guess my finding there. Still, a very nice change from the usual Northern selection of foods. I would not hesitate to say Sweet T's is authentic and a nice visit if you're in town. You'll be paying a pretty penny wherever you eat, so you can tag this one on your list.

    I've walked past this eatery for years saying I would go in soon. Finally I did!…read more We started with the corn bread and sodas, I had the pulled pork Mac and my partner had the chicken and waffles. We were very hungry and excited! The wait staff was fantastic in waiting on us as well as offering us a seat immediately upon entry. There were many servers on the floor, availing if anyone needed anything. We mentioned it was our first time, the quality of explanation of the menu lacked. We didn't really understand or enjoy what we ate. Think it's important to mention we are both black women from the American South. Maybe we ordered wrong (which I don't believe in but .... I'll digress) Maybe it was a bad day Maybe I'll try again!! We'll see.

I ordered three fish dinners; not only were the portions incredibly small--one piece wasn't even half a fillet--but the fish was old and inedible. The texture was so hard it was clear the food had either been sitting out for a long time or was refried. Beyond the food, the service was unacceptable. My drink was missing, and when I called to resolve it, I was put on hold five separate times, waiting over 10 minutes each time. When I finally spoke to a host, she hung up on me mid-explanation. Subsequent calls went straight to an 'unavailable' recording. As a culinary student, I make it a point to support Black-owned businesses, but great food must be matched by great hospitality. There was zero customer service or problem-solving here. This experience has only motivated me more to ensure that when I open my own doors, my guests receive amazing food paired with the high level of service they deserve. I will be seeking a full refund for the money lost on this inedible meal.
