THERE IS NO LOVE MORE SINCERE

THAN THE LOVE OF THE FOOD AND THE PEOPLE WE SERVE

The Weekend Spot Restaurant is located in the heart of Newark serving Authentic RicoSoul Cuisine. Ricosoul is a concept born out of a family tradition that blends Soul Food and Puerto Rican homestyle cooking. We take pride in using the best possible ingredients and products to make this happen. Our family recipes were passed down from our parents, grandparent and aunties.

Therefore, when people tell us that our freshly made dishes are mouth-watering, lip smacking, and toe tapping good, we know that we are on the right path. Feeding and serving people high quality meals is what we love the most and humbled by the opportunity from weekend to weekend. It’s simple to us… we are committed to quality, service and excellence.

Hands down the best take-out food I've had in very long time. Tried this place based on the description and high reviews and was not disappointed with anything. Jerk salmon collard greens and baked Mac&Cheese was mouth watering, lip smacking, and foot tapping for real!!! Definitely adding as my top dine out restaurant!

I used ''The Weekend Restaurant '' to cater my sister's repast. I must say I never eat or go to a soul food restaurant because I'm from the south and I know and cook good soul food. The food at the repast was outstanding and everyone there talked about how good the food tasted. She delivered, set everything up, and was on time! I commend the professionalism and hospitality. Thank you and may God continue to keep you at the top of you profession! Amazing job!!!

The Weekend spot catered my daughter's Sweet 16 party and the food was wonderful. My guest enjoyed the food and wanted to take some home with them. Not only the food is delicious Chef Mo the owner is a wonderful person! Chef Mo is easy to talk and makes sure you are happy with your experience.

I will definitely be back the food was amazing and I'm really finicky about what I eat...I ordered a bunch of food because I wanted to try everything really. My friend and I pulled over just to try the fish but it was so good I couldn't stop there I opened the smothered turkey chop that took me over the edge the mac & cheese was everything the turkey wings was God sent the cornbread baby...the staff was amazing they were warm and friendly the young man even helped me to my car which is rare...I'll definitely be there today...
