Classic Southern food . Pay by the pound. Fried chicken is delicious as is the cornbread (if you like it sweet) $10 to use credit/debit card

Arjumand Bonhomme

Curried chicken , fried chicken , rice & peas . Collared greens were amazing. Fruit on the buffet was good.

My daughter took me and her family there a few yrs back and I've been hooked ever since.... I love their buffet and the good is fresh and hot !!!!

Wonderful greasy soul food by the pound. Gospel concerts are always playing on the TVs in the back.

Dan Boujoulian

great vegetarian choices . The cards above the food do not specifically label the veggie friendly as such but they do specify when things, such as collard greens are made with turkey Read more

Food is bangin!!! Buffet of soul food . the mac and cheese and collards are the best

Cheap pay by the pound. I always spend less than I expect to especially compared to midtown. Decent soul food . Come here for a fast food alternative not a fix.

Miguel S

All the soul food is great (oxtail , collard greens , cabbage , etc.).

This is the second location of Jacob's Buffet that opened last year on Lenox Avenue. This location looks smaller, but they actually have a nice size dining area in the back. Read more

Amazing chicken and waffles. This place is always packed on the weekends, I would recommend going early to bypass the churchgoers. - Luz Cruz

Don't reach for the newer items in the back - stock is rarely rotated. Also, 12AM-7AM is best for shopping. - Jessica
