IRONBOUND.   Soul food has never been done as right as it is at Je's, a friendly little storefront dive on Williams that sees folks from all walks of life come through its doors from week to week. Down-home delights, most of them Southern-inspired, like short ribs, fried chicken, catfish, mac-n-cheese and greens highlight the daily spreads, and rumor has it you just can't find better eats in town – just ask the suit-wearing politicians, off-duty cops, and celebs (Queen Latifah, for one) who make frequent pit-stops at Je's. NB If you're coming for dinner, keep in mind they close early.   (© 10Best)

Notes from a displaced southern girl
I had the to pleasure to enjoy some down home soul food from Je's yesterday. I didn't like the tables placed side by side in long rows perhaps Mother's day crowds caused this change in table placement. The food was fairly good. Although, I found the potatoe salad sweet and salty. The shrimp was a little salty too, but hands-down the best cabage I've had in years. The service was quick and pleasant. I'd definitely go again, but I'll try something else next tim maybe some smothered chicken.

Atmosphere is not the best, but the food is so good that you don't even care. It is absolutely, hands down, the best soul food in New Jersey and, as a displaced southern girl, I have tried them ALL. My only complait about Je's is that the service is southern style too - slow and nonchalant.
