When we walked in, the attitude immediately turned us off. We asked a guy just if the food was filing and he looked at us and said "I don't answer those kind of questions" in a very rude way. No one, even the cook, "Chef Soulo" spoke or seemed friendly at all which is strange because on tik tok he seems so inviting and fun. Water from the ceiling also kept dripping on me which was very disturbing.When we got our food, we tasted and realized the yams were burnt leading us to have to get new sides, the fries above and the store to stop selling yams. When I asked the same cashier for help, he said "he didn't take out order and the owner would have to deal with it" I just thought if you worked there, you'd be able to help. The food was either super salty like the red beans and string beans or not as seasoned like the fried chicken. I was really looking forward to supporting another black owned business but I'm good on soulo's forever.

My son and I came here to try the food after seeing on Instagram and an associate told me about this place. I've tried billionaire before so I Came expecting quality again. Today I was sadly disappointed I ordered three plates one with oxtails, Mac, and cabbage the oxtails were very salty they were off the bone and pretty much mush or it was just the end of the pot, and the Mac didn't have any flavor. The first turkey chop dinner with the Mac and yam was ok though the chops were balled up and kind of resembled a chicken breast. No 2 turkey chop dinner with the red beans and rice and green beans were salty to another level I would never ever try these two if I did some how find my way back here. They only things that were edible were the cabbage, the turkey chops and the yams. And the kool aide

Upon entering we were so confused. Didn't know which menu to get or which counter to order from. The employees offered no help and were too busy to acknowledge us. It was 4pm and not too busy. The food is made fresh so it takes a while. Finally we got the correct menu and proceeded to order burgers and fries. The double cheeseburgers were really delicious. Cooked to our liking and very juicy. The Cajun fries were very tasty. We came for the burgers and were more than satisfied. The best way to explain this restaurant,think high end mini food court. The place is clean and cozy. Felt like I was eating comfortably in my living room. Good vibes and good food.

This community restaurant is pretty hectic. It's 3 restaurants in one shop. I typically get JFC (Japanese fried chicken) here and they've always been stellar. Every time I come it wasn't as hectic as it was today. I'm not sure who runs the front kitchen, I believe it's the soul food company but they're pretty rude. The chef was just yelling at his other chefs and employees, telling the customers to stop catching an attitude and asking where the food at. "It's coming, don't rush me" lol. The cashier was yelling back at the customers saying "can't you see I gotta take orders and help other customers, I can't keep answering your questions."Customers don't know where to line up cause there's no direction so when other customer line up in their line, the cashier yells at the customer and says, "oh naw, you gotta line up in they line." And just aggressively points towards the window. The girl looks at me and I just shrug as I've been waiting 5 mins for a pickup order and no one's addressed me cause it's so hectic in there. So the cashier goes back to get the person from the other restaurant and yells at them to serve their customers. They're yelling at each other. Yelling at the customers. Yelling at the other vendors. I'm sure their food is good, but I would never put up with this hostility.

My sister and I went on a Sunday evening. It was definitely a good choice! We were not disappointed. We were a little confused finding the place because it's 3 restaurants at 1 location. The owner (we think he was the owner) was super friendly and welcoming. He cracked some jokes with us and made us feel at home which was a super plus! Chicken was super flavorful and so were the French fries. We thought about ordering more fries on the side. Lol. $15.99Oxtail is a weekend special and we were not disappointed. Tons of flavors. Makes my mouth water at the thought. Candied yams were amazing. Sweetness like a dessert. Mac and cheese was also on point. $29.99Portion sizes were good. We will be back.

Waited 30 minutes in line, to then having to wait another 10 so we can place an order. Did not want to wait any longer to order. Chef was cooking stuff of the fly because of low inventory. The food may be good but I can't tell you. We just left. Need more organization to run a smooth business. Very small location.

I had the Turkey Chop meal with a side of greens. It was fire. The Mac n cheese, Turkey breast, and yams were all above average. The greens were good just not as good as the other items. My meal was so good I know I will be back to essentially try everything else. Aye bruh you can't tease us with them desserts on IG then not have em

I was very surprised when I walked in and realized it was take out. Then it took an hour to receive the food. They were out of greens and the cabbage they offered instead was so salty I couldn't even continue eating it. The turkey chops and Mac and cheese were salty as well. Small TV dinners portions really disappointed ?
