Sylvia has been doing her thing for years!! God rest her soul she started from the bottom and went all the way to the top. She was my grandmas cousin and we have always been so proud of her. In my family food is ❤️ I’m so glad you enjoyed it😊
Man I have her cook...changed the whole game. Amazingly good recipes! She tells a short story with each recipe and included photos. One of my favorite recipe books. RIP Mrs Sylvia
I went there before. Was so excited because Publix use to sale Sylvia products even before other black owned brands of soul food hit the shelves like Glory
Brother I PROMISE he will not let u down...I went to EVERY review he did within 2 hours and just let me say this...He has cost me a LOT of gas money 😆😂😅🤣
I lived in Brooklyn for years but nearly every time I’d go to Harlem, I’d pop into Sylvia’s. It was probably the first soul food restaurants tried in NYC when I first moved there. I was in love at first bite 🙂
I took my family here during Covid when I say we are like royalty 👸🏾 it was amazing. Now if you live in NY and you can go here anytime then you are truly blessed. We were first in the bldg we felt like we just came home. Everybody was wonderful. We will be back this summer.
I went to Silvia’s in 1998 & I was not impressed. Based on your review, I’ll go the next time I’m in New York. And those Turkey wings looked ‘divine’. 😊
Nah, I'm a Brit too and I was actually underwelmed when I went. I'm waiting to go to the South before I try Soul Food again or at least someone's family cookout.
You should go to people’s house. I had that show idea but I am too lazy-LOL. We would be the first to host you and I know for sure my hubby’s cooking would be 10/10. He food is good and pretty!
Damn brother you in my hood I tried that Harlem biscuit spot was good Sylvia’s been around forever so long is Harlem folk don’t even go anymore for the most part mostly visitors
@@apeshit111906 my brother I been in Harlem since the 80s and I have eaten there but I don’t remember anyone saying yo let’s go to Sylvia’s I knew D Ferg Mike cox brothers from all over 145 8th Ave 116st & Manhattan ave never remember anyone saying let’s go there I’m not shittin on the legend of Sylvia’s but more dude go to 143 & Lenox Chinese soul food breakfast spot
@@apeshit111906 but you are correct it’s a lot of spots and Harlem has gems all over and truthfully I have been gone for a minute in Bk for the last 12 yrs
I thought different ppl call it different things. Like us up northeners may call it stuffing...but him being a southerner, he calls it dressing. Idk. That's what I thought I heard. 🤔
Listen.... Stove top is not dressing. Dressing is like a 3+ hour process. Stove top is .... Nah. People will be like you gotta add things to it.... But even then it's only good because of the thing you added. Dressing stands by itself.
@@samanthabourrage right. He said I didn't like dressing. I had some stove top.....I think I almost unsubscribed and banned him myself, but he saved it saying it was good.
@@ChefChevyTv bro...soul food originated in "da hood". Original hood was the slave quarters and black areas. As far as poor quality...soul food comes from our ancestors having only the poor quality and cuts of meats and food. We had to learn seasoning and cooking techniques to offset the poor quality. If you aren't black you you probably don't realize why what you said was insulting and if you are black you need to learn about your heritage
@@ChefChevyTv Have you been there before Or are you only referring to the quality of the restaurant based on the area because if that’s so it doesn’t seem to bright.
Some of y'all hatin on Sylvia's because it's a little pricey for ya' pocket, hey! good food is good food no matter who makes it. The food at Sylvia's is very good! This is a successful black owned family business, that has a legacy of providing excellent food and services for centuries you cannot stay in business, that long selling BS food, plus people come from all over the world to patronize her restaurant, as black people we should be proud of her contribution. 👏
@@michellesimpson4093 ok you want a biscuit we didn’t even say anything about Sylvia’s thirsty it ain’t that expensive last time i had it in September it was mid you work there or something cause they not gonna give you anything for coming here acting crazy gtf on
They used to have one in Atlanta. I went there a few times and honestly was disappointed. I heard the food was better at the original location in New York.
My wife never had dressing before we got married. My mom made some for Thanksgiving our second year, and she camt wait for my mom to make her her own batch now. Stove top ain't dressing
Honestly being from NC and going to EVERY place within 3 hours of me that he reviewed (22 restaurants and counting) I feel yall stole my brother but I'm SOOOO happy to see him spread his wings and FLY HIGH...But when yall come down here PLEASE check out his reviews and trust him and go to those places bc he has introduced me and my family to a LOT of places and experiences!!! One Love from Durham and thank you for Supporting Backyard BBQ in Durham NC a business which is failing but hopefully will rebound...We LOVE u Bro

Ready to visit again just watching your videos!! Turn it up with the food!
I remember when Sylvia's was in Atlanta back in '02', some of the best soul food I've ever had...!!!
Did they leave Atlanta?
@@deebrown7160 Yeah, I believe they left a few years after.
We're talking about the original new York place not some knock off
@@mensa517…soul food originated in the South. so that “original New York place” is the real knockoff.
Why they left ?!
Looks Great Bro...👍👍👍
Man I have her cook...changed the whole game. Amazingly good recipes! She tells a short story with each recipe and included photos. One of my favorite recipe books. RIP Mrs Sylvia
I went there before. Was so excited because Publix use to sale Sylvia products even before other black owned brands of soul food hit the shelves like Glory
The fact that you're getting everything spot on in NYC makes me want to visit your good reviews in the south
Brother I PROMISE he will not let u down...I went to EVERY review he did within 2 hours and just let me say this...He has cost me a LOT of gas money 😆😂😅🤣

I’ll be in Harlem at the end of July
I’m definitely gonna try it
I love the sounds he makes and his voice🤌🏾😍 I wanna try every place he visits lol
Yes,well lol just the good ones
You talking about the slurping sounds he makes when he eats? Audio gives impressions he sucks his food into his mouth.
Food is always good, glad you enjoyed it.😊
Thank for visiting Sylvia’s! My hubby would go for our anniversary…he passed in 2007. Glad yo know the quality is still there.
Bro is NEVER leaving NY there’s just so much content to make 😭. I fw this channel
I had lunch at Sylvia's in 2010. It was a culinary delight. My apple dumpling was to die for! I'll never forget my time there.
Legendary.. Indeed!!!
I went to Silvia’s in 1998 & I was not impressed. Based on your review, I’ll go the next time I’m in New York. And those Turkey wings looked ‘divine’. 😊
I took my son there for H.S. graduation and wasn’t impressed also…that was about 2006…we even took pictures with Sylvia’s…
We went in 2018 and wasn't impressed at all even the cornbread was not it, so I know the dressing ain't it as well! It was blah!
Same. It was 2003 for me. Meh 🤷🏽♀️
Same for me
Go to Jacob’s restaurant or Charles pan fried chicken
Thank You!!
I've been to Sylvia's! It was good and the waitress was really nice to me
Welcome to Harlem. I live ten blocks away. Stay safe and many blessings.

Great suggestion Miss Lady..
Sylvia's as always been the boom!!
😁👌💯
Sylvia's is the truth.
THAT LOOKS GOOD AF
Adding this place to my bucket list if I ever go to Harlem...food looks delicious! 🔥🔥
Even as a Brit, I know that Sylvia's is da BOMB.
Nah, I'm a Brit too and I was actually underwelmed when I went.
I'm waiting to go to the South before I try Soul Food again or at least someone's family cookout.
Sylvia’s in Harlem was on point before she passed away
My favorite soul food spot in Harlem!!!!!!! Rio Sylvia ❤
You finally went! I didn’t have any of that but my whole meal was great
Brooklyn NY love Harlem food there amazing ❤
Man them turkey wings and that potato salad look 🔥🔥🔥😋
Sylvia👑....she would've loved to have served you herself 🌹...I'm so happy you enjoyed your order🥰
Now that is some dam good food. It ain't all gotta be fancy
You should go to people’s house. I had that show idea but I am too lazy-LOL. We would be the first to host you and I know for sure my hubby’s cooking would be 10/10. He food is good and pretty!
As a southerner I can look at the dressing and tell you regardless of what u thought that ain't it

I was thinking the same thing 😂
Same!!! I was thinking that too!
I'm with you when you're right!!! 😂

🎯 was gonna say u gotta try Sylvia’s Forsure before u left Harlem 🔥🔥
Harlem !!!!
Damn brother you in my hood I tried that Harlem biscuit spot was good Sylvia’s been around forever so long is Harlem folk don’t even go anymore for the most part mostly visitors
Real harlem heads still go. Myself included. Been going since the 90s. Never switching up. Most of my other go-to’s are long gone. RIP Lenox Lounge.

Love some good ol soul food! Eating and cooking it, never heard of Sylvia’s before. Everything looked good!
She even has her own seasoning in super narkets .. food and seasoning on point
Stove top isn’t dressing, it’s stuffing. Big difference. A good southern dressing is 🔥
Facts 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽🔥❤️🙌🏽
I thought different ppl call it different things. Like us up northeners may call it stuffing...but him being a southerner, he calls it dressing. Idk. That's what I thought I heard. 🤔
Stuffing is just what it sounds like. You put it inside the bird. Dressing you cook separately.
Love her seasonings
Listen.... Stove top is not dressing. Dressing is like a 3+ hour process. Stove top is .... Nah. People will be like you gotta add things to it.... But even then it's only good because of the thing you added. Dressing stands by itself.
When he said Stovetop I almost lost my jaw to the floor!
Facts!!!
@@samanthabourrage right. He said I didn't like dressing. I had some stove top.....I think I almost unsubscribed and banned him myself, but he saved it saying it was good.
It's called Stove Top Stuffing. That was disrespectful to call it dressing....lol
Dressing and stuffing are the same thing. Dressing just means it wasn’t stuffed in the bird.
This is the highest rating I’ve ever ever seen on his channel❤
Sylvia's and Amy Ruth's in Harlem are on point ✌🏿💪🏿
He just did Amy Ruth's. Check it out if you haven't yet
@@s.r6331Good lookin out
Sylvias is amazing. I'm there every time I visit home in NY.
If you like Sylvia you would love Manna’s it’s another soul food spot and it’s buffet style too!!
❤️
Manna's?
I heard it was Asian owned
@@LA-sj5vz Good. That means the food is of good quality.
@@hamansing787 Seoul food 😆
THEY DO HAVE VERY GOOD FOOD!
If you're still in nyc, head to miss mamie's spoonbread too on West 110th. Hidden gem, and under appreciated.
Sounds like da hood

And what if it is?

So basically New York is a hit😂
The sounds he makes while eating 🤣 I love it
I grew up on cornbread dressing... We different in my hood 😭
Everything on their menu is fire.🔥 Worth every $$..
You should of went to jacobs lol i love African buffets in Harlem
Yesss I Go there often the one on Lenox and the one on 145th Fredrick Douglas and I’m from The Bronx 🫶🏾🫶🏾🫶🏾🫶🏾

Went to Sylvia’s on a school trip for thanksgiving back in the 90s she cooked us thanksgiving dinner came out and said grace RIP Sylvia great woman
Are you kidding me. The last time I ate at Sylvia's was in 1995 and it was garbage. I know that they still have the same cooks so it's a NO for me🤣🤣🤣🤣
They used to have one in Atlanta. I went there a few times and honestly was disappointed. I heard the food was better at the original location in New York.
I went in 2018 and apparently it is still the same, blah! Overly hyped! I feel Northerners can't cook soul food.
@@1college100 well I'm a northerner by way of Macon GA, and I cook my butt off 😅
Beautiful...😊😊😊😊😊😊
You turned your back on dressing based on stove-top?!
EXACTLY! He should have turned his back on the person who served him that mess. No true Southerner would choose to eat that.
My wife never had dressing before we got married. My mom made some for Thanksgiving our second year, and she camt wait for my mom to make her her own batch now.
Stove top ain't dressing
Stove top is stuffing. There is a difference between stuffing and dressing. Stuffing is bread dressing is cornbread.
Stove top not even dressing its stuffing😂
Sylvia is legendary
I love soul food 😍
Oooh, Sylvia's is definitely on my bucket list when I go to NY!
