Ambassadors Fried Chicken (Crack Chicken) New Location in Newark, NJ on Lyons Ave.

Today we are in Newark NJ at Ambassadors Fried Chicken and Fish. This is a new location on Lyons Ave and Bergen. Today we decided to go off the beaten path and try something new at the new Ambassadors location on Lyons Ave and Bergen. We were definitely surprised with the new look and menu at Ambassadors.

He said "umm umm umm"..... Now you know it good when you make that sound

[@Jack-zh4op]

GOD bless that owner for hiring people with the community

[@MattDV]

Jack! That's what really peaked my interest. That's what's up.

[@annetterobinson592]

I agree with you.💯

[@uuuultra]

Don't every restaurant hire people from the community? 🤔

[@annetterobinson592]

No, most of the time they either bring in their own family members or just hire their own nationality.

[@pamM007]

Your giggle is contagious 😂😂😂

[@jelaine7532]

Hi, Matt! I'm such a foodie that I never mind you "smackin'" your chow downs. LOL! From my understanding, if you're eating in an Asian ramen-style noodle restaurant, it's expected to hear eating / slurping sounds as it's a sign of respect to the chef. Go figure. I'd have to take two buses to get to this location, so if I ever find myself in this area, I'm definitely buying some surf and turf. Thanks for sharing your food tours! Stay blessed. I'm always impressed.

[@MattDV]

Hi Jelaine thanks for staying tuned. I appreciate you.

[@ivonneleaty8501]

I love when you do reviews of the food. You are helping alot of the community and business bravo.

[@MattDV]

THANK YOU!! I appreciate that.

[@Downecker]

Lyons Av and Bergen St. You're talking the deep hood! I'm 74 from Down Neck and I bowled at Lyons Lanes for several years ! Me and friends would go anywhere for good food ! Back in the late 60's after the bars closed we used to go to Caruso's on Raymond Blvd. across from Market St. Pizza, burgers, clams, hot dogs. Something for everybody! We met about a dozen friends and hung out. Noboby hassled you, including cops. We knew them and they knew us !😂 Great days ! You knew your neighbors ten houses down and they knew you !😂❤

[@Kampala_Harris]

All looks delicious 😋

[@willie3528]

I was in New Jersey back in April and if I would have known about this place, I would have gone there. I was raised in Newark and moved to Florida in 1998. I always like to go to places I use to frequent. While there in Newark this time, I stopped at Dickie Dee's for their Italian hot dog. Have you ever been there? It's on Bloomfield Ave.

[@davidtrent1245]

Salute to you brother. You be bring the business with these videos.

[@jshshh1041]

The beginning was hilarious. A couple of young bucks trying to check you for filming, although I'm sure they are harmless - not in their minds but in the grand scheme - and you immediately step to them and explain yourself. Made more sense when I saw the Navy hat and realized you were military. All of sudden I hear "You good". Nah youngin. YOU good

[@MattDV]

WOW! I was wondering if anyone noticed that. And the respect that was so mutual. I want to demonstrate respect, while still being a man. THANK YOU.

[@debraj8665]

Just found you Matt I love your foodie video's. All the food look good, fresh and you can tell they are using fresh oil.

[@MattDV]

Thanks Debra J. You are appreciated!

Hey Brain, thanks for subscribing. You are appreciated. Tell them you saw it on #MattDV .

[@axiomist4488]

It certainly looked fresh, even the wing tip. Theyre usually hard and not the thing one eats, but the wing tip on these wings looked so fresh, it actually LOOKED crispy. Made me wanna eat it ! It all looked great and fresh.

[@elohimentertainment8166]

Been my ish since I first tried it the one on Springfield Ave. Definitely deserves the name crack chicken. Any event I do gotta have at least 50 crack wings. Was so happy when they opened one closer to me on the hill in jersey city.

[@MattDV]

Ish! lol Thank you very much. Wow I didn't know one was in Chill Town. Thanks again and stay tuned!

[@reginaallen7669]

Those wings look good especially the mango ones

[@MattDV]

They were delicious.

[@Dale115]

What I see right off the bat is that you ordered a wing and received a wing!!! Not a piece of a wing!!! The color is right. Clean oil and correct cooking temp. Yes sir. That catfish looks good too!! The distinct flavor is mud!!! LOL❤

[@MattDV]

lol

[@artiehamilton7914]

As a side note,,,the chicken I saw in this film was nice and fresh,,,,,the bones were nice white and clean not black dirty looking and freezer burned looking!Now that's what will keep the name going "Crack Chicken!

[@MattDV]

Thank you. I just added to our LIST.

[@CodebluestaT]

Indies fried chicken, Louisville, Kentucky and Jeffersonville , IN.. mixed, mild & spicy wings, seasoned mixed greens & candied yams..peach cobbler But if we're talking soul food, cooked with love, Cafeteria style, Franco's on 18th street in louisville, winner winner every visit.. those ladies keep that line moving, they don't play around. nice portion sizes, the sides offered, all are worth trying, the additional peach cobblers going to push you over the top.. unless you bring the dawggy bag

[@MattDV]

Sounds delicious! I will have to add them to my list. How's that Peach Cobbler?

[@jongreene8663]

Thats where i think napoleon pizza used to be not sure if that was the name but im.sure it was a pizza joint
