Paula's Soulfood Cafe - Hackensack

I think this place could be a miss or sometimes hit, but her food is really good in the. I love her fried chicken mac and cheese! but her rasta pasta is also great! the place always looks good cleaned out!

My first and last order from here. I ordered the oxen with macaroni cheese and yams. And everything is absolutely disgusting. Oxtails have no season. You? re greasy and simply cooked in a heaviness. Corn bread is dry and tasteless. Save your money and go somewhere else.

The food was very good, fresh, nice portions and a good variety with reasonable prices. The chicken wings were excellent and the red velvet cake was just ok. My only gripe is I wish they would chop up the greens and cabbage instead of serving such large pieces which I ended up cutting myself. But they were very flavorful though. I will repeat and would recommend.

Entering the store the workers were nice and very professional. The restaurant was clean and nicely done. Most of the food was visible and looked very appetizing. Most food was kept warm in a warmer which I usually am not a fan of. The fish seemed to be cooked to order. We had several different platters. Turkey Wings, Salmon and Fried Whiting. Turkey Wings Cooked very well. The meat wasn't dry or overcooked. They didn't have a lot of flavor. Not salty which was good for me. Fried Whiting was cooked nice and crispy. Not salty which was good to me. It was seasoned okay. The portion was great. Salmon cooked well and seasoned well. The portion was okay. The sides were roasted potatoes, collards, string beans and Mac cheese plus plantains. Loved all the sides except the Mac cheese which was okay to me. Collards were not cut up much which usually bothers me but didn't. Recommend

Place an order via Uber isst. I had this place many times. But today I felt disgusted by the food I received. Nothing but bones and fat and less than 4 pieces. Disgusting.
