What User likes about Jacob:
Staff is amazing, I came in a few minutes before closing told them I was coming from the Bronx and they let me eat and told me not to rush, Great customer service. I would always go back. View all feedback. What User doesn't like about Jacob:
Honestly i don't know if i came too early but this Jacobs's didn't have a large selection as i thought it would. I went there for a certain meat and they didn't have it. The mac and cheese was bitter. I have never had a whole collard green leaf before. But maybe i came too early View all feedback.

Oxtail were too tough to eat and the okra and tomatoes too much sugar. The collards greens too many stems. Food is good overall.
