When I tell yall this was a vibe for me....
The moment that first bite hit my lips, I had to pause—eyes closed, soul awakened—because THIS was the kind of cooking that takes you straight home, even if you didn’t know you were missing one. And if you have / had a big momma, you know what I'm talking about. If you’ve ever had the honor of dining at Sylvia’s in Harlem like I have, then you already know the standard I’m talking about. And let me tell you, this place delivers.
The fried pork chop, cat fish and chicken wings? Crispy, seasoned to perfection, and so juicy it had me doing a happy dance in my seat (my sister and bestie know what this means). The collard greens? Slow-cooked with love and just the right amount of kick. And don’t even get me started on the mac & cheese—baked, creamy, and straight-up sinful in the best way possible.
Don’t even get me started on that melt in your mouth pound cake that set my whole soul on 🔥 🫠
Beyond the food, the vibe is everything. Warm smiles, a family feel, some great conversation with the son of the woman who made it all happen, and a space that welcomes you like you’re an old friend coming back for Sunday dinner. This is a black-owned gem that deserves all the love and support because they are putting heart, history, and some serious soul into every single plate.
If you haven’t been yet, what are you waiting for? Go, eat, and thank me later. Just be warned—you’ll be dreaming about this food until...

First Timer And I Will Be Back, Walked Into Brewsters And Greeted With Warm Smiles That Definitely Make You Feel Welcomed! I Ordered The Large Catfish Dinner With Mustard Greens Cornbread And Chicken Spaghetti (It Was A Special That Day 😁) And The Frozen Lemonade Drink, Let Me Tell Yall Something ORDER THE FROZEN LEMONADE! SO GOOD...Here You Do Have The Option To Dine In Or Pick Up And The Staff Is Following Covid 19 Protocols, I Definitely Felt Comfortable Eating In The Establishment, The Only Down Side I Have Is That You Have To Pay With Cash Or Cash App Only AND THATS IT. Back To The Food, It Took About 10 To 12 Minutes From The Time I Ordered Until It Came Out And OMG Crispy Well Seasoned Catfish, Greens Were A Hit The Chicken Spaghetti Taste Like Somebody Great Grandma Is In The Back Conjuring Up The Ancestors! Overall Great Experience Will Be Back!...
Read moreSo first of all, none of the prices that are online are correct. They have increased their prices by about 50% from what is being advertised. We placed a group order with my job. We got there and realized that our total was a lot higher than any price we could find for their food. Upon receiving my food, I realize that there was an eggshell cooked into my cornbread. The person picking up our food, called us from the restaurant, and we were rudely spoken from the employee who Was saying that they did not have to explain their price changes, And we could use some thing “just cancel the order” We were not trying to cancel the order. We just spent Over $80 in their establishment and it apparently was not appreciated...
