Almost didn’t go in, so glad I did. The woman at the front was very sweet and so was the rest of the staff. Food was absolutely delicious, I got the irreplaceable- shrimp and grits with honey garlic sauce - highly recommend along with the berry punch, one of the best juices I’ve had.
☺️ Let me say! Their food was delicious!. It was fresh and tasty…Real southern old cooking. I had grits and fried catfish with seafood macaroni and shrimp. And the blueberry cornbread was really delicious along with their blueberry lemonade! Excellent.
Nothing less than PHENOMENAL!! We thoroughly enjoyed our meals. I had the Mr. Black Nile for my main dish and every bit of it was worth the drive. We also shared some appetizers that were on point! To top it off, the customer service was exceptional! Hasan and his wife Fanerra were amazing hosts and took great care of us. This was the only place I went out for dinner while visiting NY and it did not disappoint. I will definitely be back on my next trip over!
First off this place is not fancy. It has a few tables and the vibe of a take out joint. Music is playing (an excellent urban Playlist) but it's kind of loud so that discourages any meaningful conversation. That being said who needs talk when you have food this amazing! Everything was incredibly delicious, perfectly seasoned and served with LOVE. The owner is a sweetheart who greeted us warmly and literally blessed us as we left. But an even greater blessing was the impeccably fresh seafood and the world class lemonade. Coconut yams and blueberry cornbread are also not to be missed. Try this places food soon and take a trip to culinary paradise.

I've walked past this place for months and never knew what a gem this place is. Service was A-1 and Hassan the owner was amazing.
Two things to note, #1 Black Nile doesn't serve alcohol but you can but you can bring your own and #2 Everything is made to order so expect to wait at least 20+ minutes for your food. It is worth it though.
The venue is small but the decor is nice and sexy. It can be a nice spot to hang out with friends or have a date night. The music was loud and lively. Our party of six order many of the items on the menu. Fried chicken, fried catfish, lobster, salmon, shrimp, crab cakes, wings, mac and cheese (regular and seafood), greens, garlic mashed potatoes, sweet potatoes, rice, potato salad, cornbread (crab and blueberry). We tried the punch and lemonade as well as the peach cobbler and banana pudding. Everything was delicious and we were all satisfied. Hassan kept us all happy and satisfied.
I ordered the fried chicken with the creole gravy with crab meat. It was tasty but overwhelming for me because it was too much gravy. The chicken was fried golden perfectly. I realized I personally don't like smothered fried chicken and prefer chicken plain. The gravy and the chicken both was a little too salty so it didn't work well together. My friend said her crab cakes were salty. We all enjoyed everything else. My favorite thing was the crab cornbread a.k.a. Black Love. We demolished it so quickly I couldn't take a picture
of it when it first came out.
I can't wait to go back to try the brunch menu.
The black Nile gives you a wonderful space to feel comfortable once walking in from the lights to the music. Rich in culture from start to finish, the options of the best tasting dishes to offer regarding soulfood and seafood was amazing. Whether it's a piece of fresh salmon with Mac and cheese or the crispy golden fried chicken with buttery waffles and secret sauce. No matter the choice, you will still be leaving satisfied with every bite.
The food was amazing! I got seated after only a brief wait, the staff were quick to take my order and follow up with us once we received it. The menu is creative, the ambience was great and the wait staff was attentive. I highly recommend them and will most definitely be back! Can't wait to try their new sliders on The Black Castle menu for the outside patio. Great dining experience!

Oh my gosh. I read through the reviews before ordering and they did NOT disappoint. I ordered the lobster tails with rice and asparagus. I added the seafood mac and cheese because of all of the great reviews. The Mac and cheese was delicious every single bite, I literally took my time to saver the taste lol. The lobster tails were great. I had them grilled , they were meaty and literally falling out of the shell which made a huge difference for me. A lot of places don’t take the time to do that. I noticed y’all! Asparagus were steamed perfectly the rice was good too. Im just not big on rice. Very generous portions as well. I am visiting in New York but I have family here so I will def be ordering again. Literally worth the five stars if you’re considering ordering please do. My food was seasoned perfectly not too salty like perfect. True seafood fresh seafood and although I ordered to go, still hot when it arrived. I usually reheat the food, didn’t have to! Bring a restaurant to Maryland 💜
I went to their new location and i would absolutely go again ! Food was 10/10. I ordered the cater 2 you dish and everything was amazing. The shrimps were crispy , crab cakes were super flavorful and soft and the mac & cheese was everything i hoped it would be. The owner made it his business to greet you and make you feel welcomed!! I’ll definitely be back
Support Black Owned Business! Everything is made fresh to order, so be patient. The owners are on site working hard in the kitchen and dining area. Food is DELICIOUS! Will definitely be going back to try other dishes. Go early because they do sell out due to high demand!
