Goody in Paterson is the kind of spot where the line never lies...always busy, always worth the 15 min wait in a hot ass chinese restaurant.
But their roasted chicken is the star, deeply seasoned down to the bone, with skin browned well and meat so tender it barely holds together. Every bite is an explosion of flavor
The fried green plantains are the perfect crispy accompaniment & that signature orange sauce is a must ..goes well with the tostones and chicken. Homeade Ice Tea is 🔥
You should call and order and he will verbally give you a number ... when you arrive (15 min) later you will say the number through the plexiglass compartment. They are not charming just direct, thats just how they are but the food makes it worth the attitude .

I'm going to just avoid both...

(Keep an eye on how much they charge make sure you get your change) 2. They only have 2 tables to dine in. (No space people literally hover over you if your lucky the table is clean) 3. They need to control the bums blocking the entrance asking for change. (Never fails someone asking for change.) 4. THIS IS NOT A PLACE TO GO WITH CHILDREN CALL FIRST AND ORDER YOU WILL STILL WAIT. 5. They still only accept cash so the bums know you have change and will stand there looking thru the window. 3 stars because of the food but they need to clean their appearance they make to much...
