Black Nile Seafood & Soul Food

I’m extremely disappointed with the food on this visit. I ordered the fried chicken with seafood mac and cheese, seafood cornbread, broccoli, and garlic herb rice.
Unfortunately, most of the meal fell short. The rice was hard and undercooked, the broccoli was completely bland with no seasoning or flavor, and while the fried chicken had decent seasoning, it was very soggy. The seafood mac was the one highlight, it had good flavor but the “seafood cornbread” was definitely not as described. It was essentially just regular cornbread with Cajun butter on top, which felt misleading.
I genuinely wanted to like this,especially since we’d been looking forward to trying it for a while but for nearly $50, this just wasn’t worth it. Sadly, I won’t be returning. Order at your own risk.

A bit disappointing considering what positive things I had seen about this place on social media. The honey jerk chicken was super inconsistent; it was uncomfortably spicy for some bites, sweet and enjoyable for some bites, and completely bland in other parts. Most of it was dry. The rice under it didn’t seem too fresh. However, the mac and cheese and coconut yams were very good. Overall, the heart is there but the execution is not.

Opened til 10pm?
Really? And I did confirm with a call.  When I arrived there 8.15 they were already closed and boarded up. Bad business.
Actually when I called i did say I was coming by After work.  Nothing additional was explained. Actually I did  walk into a food pick up building where I saw 2 men talking and noone at the window. I even asked them but they didn't know. Im not confused. You should put clear signage about specific instructions. Since then I been calling and I guess you're even too busy to answer for your customers....

I love to support our black owned businesses. However this is not a walk-in restaurant as it appears on google it’s a virtual restaurant where they serve multiple restaurants and place your food in a locker, text you a code to get your food. I’m not a fan of this type of stuff. Secondly my bbq chicken had feathers On it still. My blueberry cornbread taste like coconut. The yams are made with coconut. The Mac and Cheese was oily and definitely not baked. The only thing I really enjoyed was the stuffing with gravy.

Food was very good. Would definitely eat from them again. A little mix up with the directions but more so Google maps fault. So just make sure to put 1140 Utica ave in your maps manually.

Gluten Free/Celiac was a breeze here. Gabby, our server, was absolutely lovely and took great care of us. She assured me that my food was safe and she even double checked. Food was amazing. Atmosphere was so relaxing and enjoyable.
If you are in Times Square……you gotta eat here!

Absolutely delicious. The decor and the atmosphere was so stunning, the hostess, servers everyone was absolutely wonderful. Came here on a Sunday around 5pm after seeing a play at the Marquis theater not crowded? Food came out quickly? Prices were more than fair. True hidden GEM! Definitely stop by if you’re in this area seeing one of the Broadway plays.

My husband and I love going here for date night. The happy hour menu is incredible and slept on. The buffalo cauliflower is a must and their sushi is incredible! You must try their blueberry margarita!!

Came here on a Thursday evening. The atmosphere was calming and nice. The Miso glazed Sea Bass & Pan seared Salmon was fresh & delicious. Our server, Al, was great to work with & helpful in choosing our entrees. Look forward to visiting again!

So excited to visit this exquisite restaurant located right there in Times Square the bluefin offers a unique experience in New York City wonderful hostess as soon as you enter the door. Shout out to our server Adrian, he made excellent recommendations. We had the pre fixe dinner options.

CUT by Wolfgang Puck

*Halal-friendly*

I didn’t want to review this establishment until I visited on several occasions. Blown away by the service, food quality, and decor. The staff is exceptionally hospitable and precise with their service, always paying close attention to your needs. The 40oz tomahawk steak, spaghetti lobster, mac & cheese, and fries were out of this world. All made with premium ingredients. The mocktails were flavorful and balanced. The owner checks on everyone as they near the end of their visit.

The bill is on the higher end, but the food and experience makes up for it. After my second visit, I can confirm this is one of my favorite steakhouses. Recommend for special occasions.

Had an excellent meal at CUT. The steak was cooked perfectly—tender, flavorful, and worth the hype. The mashed potatoes were incredibly creamy and delicious. Great service and a classy atmosphere made the whole experience even better. Highly recommend for a top-tier steak dinner

Came for our anniversary dinner. There were many halal steak options which is why we chose to come here and we were really happy we did. Food was wonderful and delicious, staff were attentive and gave good advice in ordering our meal.
We ordered the Tomahawk steak and we really wanted the mushrooms but they had alcohol so we mentioned this to our server and she brought us halal friendly sides. We were really happy with such attention to detail. After our meal we were really full and had no space for dessert so they gave us a delicious chocolate cake. Definitely give it a try!

I really enjoyed the Filet that I ordered, it was tender, delicious and very memorable. The pumpkin soup and the Brussel sprouts were just okay. The bread however was really good to dip into the juice from the steak. I sat at the bar, the crowd was some what of an interesting mix of tourists and locals. In regard to people watching on a scale from one to ten the crowd fell a little flat for me. Sitting at the bar dining in NY is one of my favorite things to do but this felt underwhelming. After the Jazz artists left the music was SO loud, it felt like the speaker was about to pop with early “2000’s” rock music. I was surprised by their music selection or lack there of and expected a different ambience. Needless to say it was a good experience just thought it would have been more of memorable experience sitting at the bar.

First steak restaurant in NYC I've been to in a very long time. I got the ribeye which was pretty good. A few friends and I each ordered the "flight of sauces" which was an additional $8 to be able to try all the sauces, but in retrospect it probably would have made sense to share the flight rather than to each get one since they came in sizable amounts that could be shared. The one complaint I had was that they wanted to place the order all at once so we weren't able to order apps to start while we continued deciding what we wanted for our mains. Otherwise, the food was good and the portions were decently sized.

We use Creekstone Farms Filet Mignon ‘Au Poivre’ which is Halal.

Abuqir

First time here at AbuQui, highly recommended! Fresh seafood, fast service, you choose the seafood you want to eat, priced by the half pound and pound. They're clean. Super delicious!

best seafood at affordable prices in the city, no question. feels super authentic and homey. everything is fresh and served fast — no frills but full of flavor. come with a crew so you can try more. great for lunch or lowkey dinner. need to go back to try everything. fried shrimp and scallops were so fantastic. the bread  and dip is fab too.

Stopped by Abuqir for lunch and was seriously impressed! We had grilled octopus, seared scallops, Egyptian rice, grilled whole shrimp, fried calamari, and grilled red snapper. Everything was incredibly fresh, seasoned just right, and cooked perfectly.

One thing to know is that the dining experience is a bit different (in a good way). Once your table is ready, the waiter will tell you to head over to the seafood stand to pick out what you want. They’ll then cook it up fresh to order and it shows in the flavor.

Indoor seating is limited and cozy, with a few outdoor tables available when the weather cooperates. It’s casual and no-frills, but if you’re into high-quality seafood without the fuss, this place is a hidden gem.

Highly recommend for seafood lovers looking for something authentic and delicious!

First time here and this place is absolutely amazing - no frills. For a family of 4 we ate swell everything is so flavorful the Greek salad, the bread, baba ghanoush, scallops, calamari, fried anchovies, red snapper. If you love seafood, this place is a must

You better sit outside the vibes were outstanding. Food was exactly like eating seafood in Egypt. Everything was very tasty and the service was great. I highly recommend this place we ordered shrimp fried and butterfly. Both of them were great. We ordered fish rice and salad. Everything was perfectly made.
