   I had been to Sweet T’s once in the past and was impressed enough to return with a number of friends. Everyone was throughly impressed! The food was outstanding and the service was great. This is a great pre-show meal if you’re going to a show at the Wellmont.

   I had a great time for my birthday! I was not expecting an impromptu Happy Birthday song. I was taken a back that the mac and cheese is an entree and not a side. The food was bomb! Thanks!

   They called 2 hours before our reservation and left a message that, due to unforeseen circumstances, the restaurant would be closed. They then left a message to call them and make another reservation. We called. No answer 10 minutes after the original phone call. A family member was visiting from out of town and leaving that day. It was impossible to reschedule. I have not heard from the restaurant since.

   We first started with biscuits and gravy… delicious! My husband ordered smothered turkey wings, he loved them….cooked perfectly. I ordered the shrimp and grits also delicious. The staff was very friendly and attentive. All very welcoming We will definitely be back to enjoy some of the other dishes.

   Sweet t’s has the most delicious southern food! I always get the pulled chicken mac and cheese and it’s incredible every time. Me and my bf love to split the berry cobbler. The warm berries mixed with vanilla ice cream is an amazing contrast. This was our first time going on a Sunday. They had a band playing fun jazzy music and although it was loud, it was catchy and we enjoyed it. 4 people ate and were satisfied for around $100. Literally cannot go wrong here. 🤍🤍🤍

   We ordered quite a few things and everything was delicious. Chicken and waffles, mac and cheese, potato salad, collard greens, candied yams, potato wedges, fried chicken, fried shrimp appetizer and cornbread. with the exception of the wedges that were just way to big and bland, everything else was ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS. Loved the vibe and the live music.

    Excellent food, service, ambiance, and cost. We met Tonza who is one of the owners, and her hospitality was infectious! Great representation of Southern hospitality! Would highly recommend Sweet T's Southern Eatery for date night or dinner with family.

    The food was delicious. The service was poor. Our server ignored us and and did not check on us at all, when we called her over she was abrasive. We are pretty low maintenance, but if she had stopped by, we would have ordered dessert, which we had planned on doing. The restaurant and she would have made mores As it says on their site, 20% is added to the check for service, which did not allow us to give her less on the card for the poor service. By the time she finally checked on us, we had been done for some time and we needed to get home, so skipped dessert. The ambiance and everything else was amazing and I plan on going back as long as I do not have the same server. I’ve never written a review before, so it should say something

    For appetizers we had fried chicken wings and cornbread with strawberry butter (the strawberry butter is to die for!) For our entrees we had salmon cakes and grits, shrimp and grits, and we split a catfish entree and selected potato salad and candied yams for our sides. We had peach iced tea to drink and the 3 berry cobbler with ice cream for dessert. Everything was so delicious and I woke up this morning wanting more! It’s a short ride from NYC, so you have to go check it out. You will not be disappointed!

    The restaurant decor is nice. The food was great. My two concerns are the reservation system and the ability to park near the restaurant. My family and I were told that we could not book a party of four. Instead, we would need to book two separate reservations for a party of two. Upon entering the establishment, our tables could then be joined together. It is my hope that the reservation system would not make the desire to seat four people together a challenge for future patrons. My other concern is the lack of parking anywhere on the street. I eventually found parking approximately four blocks away from the restaurant. I don't know if parking is a consideration by the municipality in a high-traffic business district. I hope there are plans to accomodate patrons with a better solution for places to park.

    Before making a reservation, you may want to check their website. Lots of rules - 20% automatic gratuity was one of them. As someone who regularly tips at least 20%, this wasn’t immediately a problem- until our waitress arrived. She was rude, curt, and treated us the whole night as if she was doing us a favor. I don’t get it - we were two moms looking to celebrate Mother’s Day and she couldn’t even keep our water glasses full, refused a request for half-sweet tea with a snort as if I’d requested her first born. The restaurant had barely anyone when we arrived (7:00 pm on a Saturday) and did get full as the evening went on. The food was good, but not over the top. A fair value, as my shrimp and grits had only four shrimp for what was supposed to be a full meal. We ordered Mac & Cheese with chicken and they forgot the chicken. My friend’s chicken meal was fairly bony (not much meat), and was again good, but not great. I know that COVID negatively impacted this industry, so while I understand the food to price ratio is under pressure, they may have considered either raising prices or otherwise to keep quality food. That being said, I would have let ALL of that pass if the waitress we had wasn’t so horrendous without reason. We got out of there as quickly as we could, and won’t be back. With few nights out to enjoy ourselves, why go somewhere where the vibe is so snotty?

    The service is adequate and the ambiance is ok. The owner was there and did not great the dinners. I actually witnessed her pointing to open tables when guests came in. The food is good. I had the catfish, grits and collards, which were delicious. The cornbread is amazing. If you want good southern food, I don’t think you will be disappointed. I also did not like the 20% gratuity added for any size party.

    Arrived early request to be seated not a problem. Asked about parking gave suggestions with a smile and assured us table would be ready once we parked. Cornbread was ready and scrumptious. Every one enjoyed their meals and it was so nice to eat in peace. Not the how is everything every few minutes.

    We came for Sunday brunch and had a great time. The live music was perfect. The cornbread was AMAZING and there was not a single complaint about our food (and we tend to be picky eaters). Overall great experience and we will return. If this is your first time, a few things to remember: 1) cornbread does not come with the meal, it’s a separate cost 2) bring cash. They charge a 4% fee if you use a cc. 3) be on time for your reservation - they are not playing with this! 4) park in the parking lot and give yourself time to walk back. It’s challenging to find street parking.

    This was my second visit to this restaurant. My husband insisted we dine here for his birthday and I will say the some of the food was better then the first time . My favorite was the cornbread with strawberry butter … so Delicious! I will say the service was ok . If the 20% gratuity was added in my server would have definitely gotten between 16-18% . I was wasn’t too thrilled about getting charged for 1 of the couple’s that couldn’t make it to the dinner due to an emergency with their kids. The place was very empty not a huge crowd with was a plus due to the size of the restaurant. Overall my food was good … Mac and cheese was a bit dry but my fish and greens were really good. My dinner guest at my table enjoyed their food as well!

    the food is good, but some.meals dont.come with sides (al la cart) which makes it pricier. cornbread and mac cheese r separate price. why is the tip included for a party of 2 (20%). i can understand cork service, but $5.00; it was basically for 1 wine glass because the wine I was drinking was a twist top. i guess sweet t's is considered more upscale southern quisine since its located in montclair. be prepared to spend more $$$$.

    The receptionist was very professional and attentive. The server was horrible and rushed us into ordering our meals. She was walking away before we was finish ordering our meals. The food was good, but in the future if we should return to this place we would definitely turn away that server. She has no good customer service

    The food, service and ambiance were terrific. We will definitely be back again. My only improvement suggestion is to please use recyclable materials more. All three of us are science teachers, so the straws and styrofoam containers are something we hope will be addressed.

    My husband and I wanted to patronize a Black Owned Business for our 30 wedding anniversary. We heard great feedback about the restaurant and my husband saw a feature on the news. So we came with our son and daughter. There was live music and the musicians were great, a very cool vibe. A nice addition to a Sunday dinner. Everything was lovely and everyone was so pleasant. That is so hard to maintain at times in hospitality services. So let’s talk about the food, catfish, slow roasted sweet potato very with that cane syrup cinnamon butter & black eye peas. Catfish with the greens and potato wedges. Catfish with greens and Mac & cheese( you see a theme here right?) and the lamb cheese steak. We were all very satisfied with our selections and presentation was very nice. We all decided that we will be back soon to try different dishes.
