I love Kings Restaurant! Everything is prepared exactly how I like it. TheFried Fish (Whiting) andChicken Wings (4) are both fried crispy and seasoned to perfection. The grits are creamy and delicious! The collard greens are so good! I only have one suggestion. Please tape the beverage container shut to ensure it isn't tampered with. other than that everything is great!

Very surprised being a longtime customer!!!! The fish sandwich was dry with no tartar or hot sauce which I requested condiments/utensils. The wheat bread was stale and the fish was soggy with no seasoning/flavor. The cost for a slice of cake was astronomical. I could have purchased the ingredients and baked the cake myself. Your establishment is well known to the community and the food/service should be nothing short of exemplary. Repeat customers are key to any business. Please do better.

Turkey wings dinner with stuffing. Everything was delicious (I absolutely love their stuffing; the I've ever tasted in NEW JERSEY). Turkey wings were baked lovely, juicy and seasoned well (not salty; you can taste that they used real seasoning for the turkey; not salt!). Candied yams were also tasty. Not overly sweet and flavorful). My advised for the yams, would be to cook them maybe 10mins less (I like a little bite for my yams). The Mac & cheese are average.

First time ordering this Kings. I did like the fried Whiting. The grits and eggs I did not like The grits was not creamy at all. They was more chunky and had no flavor to them(very bland) asked for medium scrambled eggs. instead they gave me medium runny scrambled eggs. I also especially liked their offering of whole wheat toast with jelly. That was delicious
