When Sylvia’s chef and founder Sylvia Woods died in 2012, W. 126th Street and Lenox Avenue in Harlem was co-named ‘Sylvia P. Woods Way.’ When you get an entire block named after you in New York City, you’re pretty much immortal. And Sylvia’s is about as immortal a restaurant as you’ll find in New York City.
Sylvia’s opened in the 1960s, and it’s been Harlem’s most iconic Southern soul food mecca ever since. It’s evolved and expanded over the years – the restaurant now takes up the entire block between 126th and 127th on Malcolm X Blvd and has multiple dining rooms, a diner counter, and a separate lounge that all together seat around 450 people. There’s also a Sylvia’s product line of BBQ sauces available in grocery stores, and a catering business. Needless to say, Sylvia’s children and grandchildren have been keeping busy.
