Jacob Soul Food - New York

The food was good. Not the greatest. Meat was tender, lacked seasoning but, I use more salt on my food than most people in my opinion. I'm not big on dessert but my friend said the carrot cake was really good. Nice atmosphere, friendly staff. All in allI would visit again

The presentation and freshness of the food at Jacobs was AMAZING! So many varieties and the food was always well stocked. My biggest problem was that the food was very bland. I was so dissapointed as I was looking forward to have a tasty meal and I gotthe complete opposite. I did read reviews prior to eating here that did mention this but ignored it.

Hot and fresh busy with a lot of people but fast service. The food is very good. If you are looking for good comfort food. The navy Lima beans and turkey wings were my favorite. Cornbread and greens were also a hit. My least favorite is the Mac andcheese. Yams were sweet and soft. Potato salad mustard style and sweet as well. The banana pudding is good but it?s not scratchcustard made. I was overall satisfied. After I purchased my meal I sat outside at the table and ate on a Friday during lunchtimeand still enjoyed myself other than a few flies a couple times it was a good setting.

I eat at Jacob's at least once a month and I love it. For the people complaining that their food is bland, not everyone wants salty and over seasoned food; you have the option to add salt. Their food is excellent, I love the smothered pork chops, beef ribs, oxtail, rice and peas, okra, collards, mac and cheese, etc, etc. The price is by the pound, you get enough food for about 15 bucks.

The best thing about Jacobs is the food. Every dish has its own taste and flavor. Im going to be a regular customer there. And they were jamming last night with the music.
