“I absolutely love Montclair, NJ - It's definitely a foodie town! I've been to a few restaurants here before and they were all awesome, so I was so excited to try some soul food at this spot! I was greeted by their friendly and informative staff! I also loved the rustic decor and large comfy booths! I tried a variety of yummy food: For my proteins, I had the fried chicken and turkey wings! And for sides, I had mac and cheese, white rice with gravey, collard greens and potato salad! I ordered the peach cobbler and apple cobbler for desserts, and finally for drinks, I had the Uptown (lemonade and iced tea mix) and Southern Twang (a secret formula drink that has citrus flavors!) The turkey wings portion was absolutely huge!! I've never tried turkey wings that weren't fried before (I believe these were baked) so it was definitely something different! The chicken was nice and crispy and had lots of flavor! As for the sides, I absolutely loved the collard greens - probably the best I've ever had! It wasn't bitter, the texture was not mushy and I loved the savory flavors! The potato salad was also different - it tasted almost like a deviled egg! The apple and peach cobblers were the perfect sweets to end this delicious meal!“

When I walked in I felt like I went to visit my Aunty. Shawnea opened the door and welcomed in. It's a small cozy restaurant, the place doesn't smell like food it smells like eucalyptus candles and the food OMG! This is the best soul food I've ever had. I got Mac and cheese, collard greens, candy yams, oxtail, sauteed shrimps, and the strawberry corn bread. I'm in heaven!!!! I'll definitely be back.“

Great place to treat yourself or someone after a hard time.Food portions were heavy, 3 people split 2 entrees and 2 starters and had food to take home. Definitely going back for more of that cornbread dressing stuffing & cheesy grits“

A Mother's Touch Bistro & Catering Caterers • $
36 W Mt Pleasant Ave, Livingston

“My first time trying A Mother's Touch. Chef Mel has genuinely pleasant energy. She was patient as we made a decision. I wanted the Chicken & Sweet potato waffles which they don't make after a certain time. She made an exception and made my mine fresh. The chicken was well seasoned, crispy and juicy. I loved the texture of the waffle and it wasn't overly sweet. We also had the combo whiting/shrimp with greens and Mac and cheese. The fish and shrimp were well seasoned. The shrimp were a nice size. The mac and cheese was absolutetly cheesy and not dry. We also had a fish sandwich which was served with cajun fries. As a fry snob I had to steal one and I will be back for my own order. Honestly the best soul food experience I have had in Jersey in a while. The service and the food were both ?“
