I've seen this place mentioned various places over the past year but more than the fact that they are in Staten Island, they are open only 3 nights a week ... 15 hours total every week?
They're apparently that damn good.Shawnaes House

Ol girl said you can forget Oxtails, etc after the first hour open cause they're sold out immediately. Better off ordering something fried.
And again, Al Roker.... New York Times... Charlamagne, Lord Jamar and whoever else has cosigned-- bUt NoBoDy gOeS tO sTaTeN iSLaNd
That's cool that they cosigned, but it doesn't change the fact that most ppl who live in NYC don't go to SI like that. If you drive, you have to pay a toll. If you use mass transit, the subways don't go there, you have to take the ferry, then figure out the bus.
Celebrities and journalists going on adventures is different from people having to make time to go way out of their way to go to SI.
The food looks amazing but I'm not making a trek to Staten Island. Never been there in my life and never will.
Anyone saying Amy Ruth's is good probably never went there when they could only seat about 10 people. Every time I went there the owner was in the kitchen preparing the food and it was 10/10. Once he sold and they expanded to seat 100 the quality fell off.

Okay but there's only when other place mentioned between all that driving/tolls, ferries and busses
Trolling HOWWho the fukk in the city goes to Staten Island for eats? This nikka trolling
The evidence is in the OP and yall ain't even speaking on good soul food up there in the other boroughs.Them damn yams I had mighta been from their canned collection too cause I swear to Gawd...
THEY WERE THE WORST YAMS IN MY ENTIRE LIFE 
How y'all feel about Jacobs? I've eaten there my last couple of times in the city. I know their more of a mix between Soul Food and Caribbean Food, but still good imo.
I didn’t even know Sylvia’s was still open until I went to 125th last month. I want to know who the fųck is eating there when you can pull up to Melba’s or Amy Ruth (with their iffy service) or something else in the area

Jacobs as a buffet is on point. The spot back in the day for that Caribbean food in the 90's/early 2000's Harlem was Mr B's. It wasn't on the surface like regular restaurants, you had to go downstairs from the streets to enter it and you sat down to eat.
Copelands was another Soul Food banger in Harlem 90's and 2000's. Copelands was Sylvia's/Amy Ruth level back in the day.
