Sunday dinner that lasted 3 days. Good serving sizes. Taste good. I got the herbal wings, mac and cheese and greens and it came with a piece of cake. Black owned

“Doughboys on 71st Street” is a hidden culinary treasure, and it’s more than just a restaurant; it’s a community gem that serves up not only incredible food but also a sense of togetherness. This black-owned eatery has quickly become a neighborhood favorite, and it’s not hard to see why.The star of the show at Doughboys has to be their catfish and spaghetti. It’s a unique combination that packs a flavorful punch. The catfish is perfectly crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, and paired with their signature spaghetti, it’s a match made in food heaven. The flavors are a delightful mix of Southern and Italian influences, creating a dish that’s truly unforgettable.

jerk chicken salad. very tasty. I would only recommend that they add more greens to balance out the amount of meat.

This was my first time coming here. I found them because they were close to where I live. I got the #2 combo: 2 catfish fillets, spaghetti, a side salad, and roll. The catfish and spaghetti was good. I liked how it came with a salad instead of a typical fry. You actually get decent sides. The only issue was that my roll had mold on it. I was very disappointed because I had already took a lil piece off of it. It had green on the roll. So even tho the food was good, having the moldy bread in with my food turned my stomach. I don’t know if someone is checking the freshness of the food but after seeing mold the food wasn’t as good as it was before and it was a constant reminder of why I just stay at the crib and cook. It’s thought I would treat myself and then it’s moldy bread in the same box with my food. Had high hopes as they fish and spaghetti was good. But disappointed about the moldy bread.

The good, the tilapia was outstanding as well as the grilled chicken salad. The customer service was great. The bad, I live 5min away, the spaghetti was ice cold which means it was cold when they packed it and the rice & beans were just not good. Overall I would go back & give a second chance to get it right.

The herbal wings are excellent! This jerk salad is phenomenal. The greens are always fresh and the chicken is superb.

So my partner and I are food reviewers and we purposely went into this establishment without telling them that we review food as a profession because we wanted to get the food that they served to the public And not “influencers”. Here’s my review: the red beans with rice and the macaroni tasted like they were from yesterday, the fried chicken was dry and overcooked, the greens were fresh but lacking seasoning, the “catfish” was Swai and there was more breading than fish, the herbal wings were OK, the spaghedough was good, the cornbread was a bit dry but very good, the sour cream cake was very good as well, and the Judy juice was a 10 out of 10 they took over an hour to give me my jerk salad after previously telling me that it would take 20 minutes— the salad had a lot of chicken, which was great but no other ingredients other than peppers and lettuce no cheese, no boiled egg, no cucumber to balance out the spice. Overall experience, 6 out of 10 would not recommend. We drove a total of a 2 1/2 hours for food that was subpar—this food was not worth $73 but the customer service was GREAT! They deserved the 20% tip that I left for their hospitality

5 stars!!! We stopped by Doughboys for dinner tonight and ordered the wings, spaghedough and jerk chicken nachos. Everything was a hit but the spaghetti or spaghedough is the best I’ve ever had, didn’t think anyone could make it better than me 🙂 Staff were friendly and welcoming and the atmosphere was dope! Love the artwork and vibe inside. Look forward to trying their other options when we return. Will be back soon.

I don’t know what these people in the reviews are used to eating, but this was not what I expected. Fish is too salty because this restaurant uses a thick lemon pepper seasoning to garnish (i severely dislike that seasoning) should have told me they use that. The Spaghetti has tender noodles but that’s all I have positive to say. Fish is oily chewy if that makes sense. The chicken pieces used for the sis did not look appealing, nor did it taste like Jerk. Not pleased at all.
