I came here for Winterlicious this past Thursday and this place was packed! With only one server for the night. I remember I came in and there was no one to greet us so we just stood there awkwardly waiting for someone to come to us. The server saw us and I told him I had made a reservation for winterlicious. And he just looked at me like I was foreign or something. Anyways, we were seated to our table which btw the tables are quite close to each other so you may or may not eavesdrop ;).
For our dinner, I ordered the fried catfish as an appetizer to start followed by the jerk BBQ chicken and the the fried plantain to finish. The fried catfish was good and I believe it's the same flouring for the fried okra as well. The jerk BBQ chicken was really good but a tad spicy for me and the fried plantain wasn't exactly fried and goes well with the vanilla ice cream. That dessert seemed to be the most popular choice.
All in all, service was a bit weird and non existent because at first I didn't know who exactly was the server. And when I wanted to order I waved someone over who turned out to be a busser. Not sure if I'll go out of my way to visit Harlem again though.
