Had the Buffalo Chicken with sweet potato fries , awesome! Also do not hesitate to order the Homemade Sweet Potato Buttermilk Pancakes - you will not regret the choice as it is extra delicious.

Omg the good was so good! The mac and cheese , corn bread , the cat and the famous chicken and waffles .... wow ! Service was excellent too

Service can be better but the fried chicken with waffles and cornbread is a must try. Also tried the jerk chicken fettuccine and mac and cheese both were delicious.

Originally a Dutch settlement formally organized in 1658, Harlem is named after the city of Haarlem in the Netherlands. Harlem was annexed to New York City in 1873.

They do not have hot sauce ! Their rendition of hot sauce is Jerk sauce and plum sauce w/chilly!

Fried chicken was good. Do the catfish as an appetizer .

Some damn good fried chicken and waffles .. Not much else, but jazz never hurts!

Went for winterlicious & portion sizes will leave you full but the food was only ok, mediocre at best. Had the catfish lafayette, chicken&waffles + candied plantain . Avoid the candied planain.

Service was pretty bad. Very slowly. Had to return an appetiser because it wasn't cooked properly.

Corn bread is an awesome compliment to the spicy dishes !

Bonnie Dean

Their jerk chicken quesadilla is very tasty.

Talia

MAPLE SYRUP ON SOUTHERN FRIED CHICKEN & DEEP FRIED PICKLES.... FANTASTIC!

deanna lambert

The blackened catfish wasn't blackened and had insufficient side dishes. The jambalaya was way too spicy . The pickles were decent, so were the drinks. The service was crazy slow. Oh well .

Filipa Ortet

Nice place!

Jennie K

The jerk chicken is actually just bbq chicken . And the corn bread is dry. Cute vibe. Horrible food.

It’s big and has everything you want in a park. Dog unleashed area, kids playgrounds, and picnic tables. It’s rare to have a nice big park in the city of Toronto. - Catherine Wang
