Having ran the streets in Harlem in my younger days this place does not capture the real feel of harlem which cannot be duplicated. The food was average. Honestly, I can make better soul food myself. Seriously, I was taught by the best. The Southern fried chicken was not southern at all. It may have been southern carribean (lol). The mac-n-cheese was bland. Suprising the collards were okay. With all that said it is probably the closest you are going to get to any type of southern cuisine in Toronto. The decor could pass for a nightspot in Harlem but in New York it's all about the people! The music was good but the people were stand offish and did not show the artist any love. I felt so sorry for her. If it wasn't for me clapping it would have been dead silence.
