Sweet Potatoes Restaurant - Southern restaurant (US) in New Rochelle - 393 North Ave, USA

One of my favorites, if not my #1 favorite soul food restaurant. I wish the establishment will one day expand the size. It is a very small in size, and only seats 12-15 people tops, and that would make it tight in there. The small side is more for takeout. I have been on the bigger side for Sunday brunch. Love the jazz band, and the full buffet. Today in particular, my mother said let's go out to eat. I really wanted her to try this restaurant. Her stomach is very sensitive, and can't eat certain things. I just wish the waitress was a little bit more patient, and not so fast to catch an attitude, when trying to order the food the way she likes it . Overall, my mother enjoyed the food as well. She loved her extra crispy chicken and she enjoyed the the Sweet Potatoe Fries as well. I liked the Seafood Delight, but was a huge fan of the crab cakes. It was just okay. The string beans had that extra kick to it. The Mac & Cheese was/is my favorite side dish. Delicious!

Ordered from here 5 times and they never miss! I love the baked Mac and yams decos great combo

December 2023 The food I've ordered (whiting, chicken wings, greens, and yams) is consistently very good. Doordash delivery orders are always prepared well, and are packed securely.

I’ve ordered food from here for Thanksgiving and it was trash. I’ve ordered a 2 large pans of food for which I considered was a lot of money. Ended up throwing both out. The chicken wasn’t done. I use to love this place but I’ve seen the quality of the food going down hill. Don’t think that I would ever be back.

My food was good as always. However, I noticed the banana pudding isn’t homemade anymore. Mines tasted like it came from the chicken spot. I miss the homemade banana pudding hopefully you guys bring it back

I haven’t had Sweet Potatoes in over 8 years & I remember why. The cornbread tasted too sweet and didn’t taste homemade. The catfish was okay but didn’t taste seasoned. The Mac and cheese was good but the collard greens tasted sweet. I don’t like sweet greens. Food was packaged well.

Been searching for a good soul food restaurant close by for a while and stumbled across this one on Google maps. The reviews were mixed, but mostly good and enough to get us to make the drive from the Bronx. And boy are we glad we did. The guys behind the counter are really friendly and knowledgeable about what they are serving you. We got the combo platter fried chicken and short ribs. Mac n cheese, string beans (great flavor) for me and Mac n cheese and potato salad for him. The sides were good, the chicken was good but the short ribs were really good. So tender and the sauce was deeeelicious. And the portions were HUGE. They gave us so much food that we have to wait until tomorrow to try the cobblers we bought. Will definitely be back.

I’m going to limit coming here. I love the food tremendously and it’s always presentable. However whenever I do come in, the cooks are extremely off. I’m very observant where I go. Firstly to have Hispanics cooking up southern food is interesting nonetheless the food is probably already prepped. 99% of the time I come to pick up they’re looking at the customers smirking and snickering to eachother. Like literally. I wanted to ask the clerks at the front how it is back there but I wouldn’t think they’ll be honest. It’s very suspicious how they watch people picking up their food and snickering and smirking The food is amazing but the vibe they give makes me question my trust of the food they hand me. Y’all should look into this.
