I honestly wish there was a way to truly highlight spots like this one. If I could give them 10 stars, I totally would. If you’re debating on going somewhere else don’t…I promise you, you’ll enjoy every bite.

Stopped by Skil-Lit Cafe for breakfast, and I was blown away! The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, perfect for a morning pick-me-up. The staff were attentive and friendly, ensuring we felt right at home. The food selection was diverse, catering to all tastes, and every bite was absolutely delicious. The coffee? A perfect brew to start the day! Can’t wait to return and highly recommend to anyone in the Trenton area.

First let me start by saying how nice the restaurant is inside; nicely decorated with plenty of seating. My King and I dined in on a Saturday morning they had live music which was lovely. The food was amazing!!! More than I expected it to be I had the shrimp and grits, my King had the fish and grits. But what was so unique was that they served the food very hot in an actual skill lit! The grits were cheesy and butter cooked just right with Cajun shrimp which were seasoned to perfection. The service was top notch and the owner was amazingly friendly and not afraid to talk too people at all. But the best part of the meal is that they serve mimosa’s with your meal which are free and you get three servings. All in all please patronize this amazing business I can’t say enough good about this great establishment; but go see for yourself…

I recently had a private event at the Skil-Lit Cafe for over 20 people. The level of service they provide was extremely professional, not to mention that the food was absolutely delicious. Everyone was raving about how nice everything was. I know for sure we will be having more private events at the Skil-Lit Cafe.

My partner and I was looking for a spot for brunch on a Sunday and this place was the first to pop up on my search. It definitely beat other options due to their menu and reviews. Thank goodness we went on a Sunday because of the parking. We enjoyed the food so so much! So flavorful and authentic. The vibe was great. Enjoyed everything. This will be our spot when we just want to go for a brunch.

Really Nice Place, Modern upbeat atmosphere that has a really cool vibe. Staff was great, our server (Tootie) was definitely on point and made sure we were taken care of from the time we were seated until the time we left. Food was reasonably priced and the portions were a decent size. Everything was tasteful, fresh and well prepared. Will definitely be visiting again.
