Sylvia's in Harlem is perhaps Harlem's most famous restaurant. It is also one of the most famous restaurants in New York City in general. The restaurant was opened by Sylvia Woods in 1962 and has been serving American Southern style cuisine and Harlem soul food for more than 60 years. Located on the Harlem 125th street, just a few blocks away from the iconic Apollo theater, Sylvia's is located in a prime spot in a bustling neighborhood. However, Sylvia Woods passed away in 2012 and in recent years the restaurant has received mixed reviews. Some say it's still the iconic NYC restaurant it always was and is making the best Soul Food in Harlem. Others say it's past its prime and that Sylvia's is overrated and a tourist trap. Those critics often will say they prefer Amy Ruth's, Red Rooster, or Melba's.
In this episode, we hit up Sylvia's restaurant and try to Sylvia's fried chicken, the famous Sylvia's barbecue ribs, the famous Sylvia's corn bread, Sylvia's mac n cheese, and Sylvia's collard greens. We seek to provide an honest review that does not take hype into account, either positive or negative. We hope you enjoy this Sylvia's Harlem review and the soul food mukbang!

Major props to the waiter. Saved you money which ultimately possibly lowered his tip. That interaction alone is rare these days. Used to hit up Sylvia’s on Sunday Gospel Brunch where Miss Sylvia would greet each guest and walk to each table to check on their meal. Brought my parents from Ohio, who knew Miss Sylvia from her product line, she spoke to them for about 5 minutes and they were very impressed by the entire experience. R.I.P. Sylvia.

I tend to avoid the crowded soul food joints, because the food just tends to not be the same as I get at a smaller lesser known spot. And once a soul food place gets labelled "the place to go" or gets famous the quality goes, portion sizes go down and the prices go UP.

You should have ate dinner mixing food and eating a little this and that. No one eats all their chicken, all their ribs, three bites of greens, and expect the Mac n cheese to be hot and delicious. The mixture of eating everything together makes it soul food.

I went to Sylvias for first time with family this month (june 2023). Half of us loved it and the other half didn't or felt it wasn't worth the price. I fell into the group that LOVED it and enjoyed everything i ate there (I ordered the veggie platter with mac n cheese, vegetarian collards, green beans, and rice). Soul food is tricky when eating it at a restaurant because your gonna always gonna compare it to what your mom/grandma/aunt cooked growing up. Overall, I'd 100% reccomend Sylvias!!!

(not implying you are talking too much, you are doing a video) You are quiet because you are enjoying what had been cooked for you. Silence says everything that words can't". That must have been really good food cooked for you then. RIP Miss Sylvia. and Daddy.

Not a big fan of this place after working there as a waiter and discovered that they put the fried chicken in a warmer where it sits until ordered. Prior to working there I went to dinner for the first time , service was good, vibe was nice but luke warm chicken didn’t quite do it for me. I couldn’t quite put my finger on it until I got a job there then it all made sense!! It’s been sitting in a food warmer!!!!! Yes it is a tourist trap , but still worth checking it out at least once I would suggest Melba’s Ms. Sylvia’s granddaughters Resturant the experience is amazing and the food is delicious!! I’ve also had the pleasure to work there as well! Such an amazing place and Ms. Melba is the bomb!!

More than the restaurant, I am impressed by this reviewer. I love to cook, and I can tell from his remarks he is trying to be objective as possible, always--and I say this after seeing several of his videos. If you are trying to improve yourself, you have to be honest, and I can see he is doing that, trying to analyze exactly what he doesn't like. Some other reviewers seem to love everything they taste; I won't disparage them because they do a service by introducing us to a whole variety of foods, although they are often sponsored by the places they show. It is really refreshing to see such integrity in reporting.

If the cornbread is hot, trick is to cut a slit in top of the muffin with your knife that goes about halfway down to the middle and then put the pat of butter in it and it will melt and dissolve throughout the whole muffin. A bbq place I used to go to would do that with all their cornbread muffins and now I do it every time when I get those type of cornbread muffins.

​@CarltonBeckfordDozier66 . Australia currently has 8 senators and 3 members of the House of Representatives who are Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander. How many Indigenous elected representatives does the US have? Last time I checked, the US treats Native Americans like crap... not to mention 400 years of slavery. Also, fun fact: Australia is one of the most diverse and multicultural nations on earth. We have an increasing number of African restaurants, just not soul food - which is an American invention.

Yup, I don't get how anyone eats like that. The whole point of having multiple proteins plus multiple side dishes is to taste how everything complements each other.

One of the thing I remember from a month-long visit to Germany a few years ago was how I was able to find some really, really good deals on food at the grocery story. Usually it was stuff that simply had to be sold that day or thrown away, and it was marked down considerably. If you wanted to, you could simply walk to the grocery store every day, buy whatever was on sale, and just make a day's worth of meals out of that. There's just not an equivalent system where I live in the US. Grocers would rather throw food away than to heavily discount it.

You can get very good discounts at certain grocery stores.

I first went to the location in Atlanta and was kind of disappointed. I thought it would be better in my favorite city, New York. But, it wasn't that great either. The ribs were a little tough and obviously were baked and not smoked on the grill, which I expected. The potato salad didn't have much flavor nor the collard greens. I went back at another time and did enjoy the breakfast of salmon cakes, grits, and biscuits.

FYI fall off the bone ribs are actually not ideal and means overcooked, as you would overcook that best portion of the meat that attached to the bone. What you showed here is actually the optimal level of how the meat should fall off.

It was better when Sylvia when living. Sad to say this is typical of many places when the original owners retire or die it don't be the same

So everything looks okay and I like my chicken little bit salty it's most likely been put in a brine overnight that's what keeps the chicken nice and moist and still get a real crispy skin and with the spare ribs you want to bite the meat off the bone and not have it fall off like Chinese style but yet tender was that all worth 26 bucks plus tip probably not but thanks for your honest review remember don't let the mac and cheese and the collard greens get cold you got to take a little bite of each as you go along
