I eat here at least twice a week! It feels good to know I’m getting good clean food! The workers are friendly, prices are reasonable and my food is always made fresh! If you are looking for good soul food this is the place!!

UNDER NEW MANAGEMENTYou need to come here for your chicken and Soul food!If you've ever been here before then you need to circle back and try again.The Lion's Den Soul Food Cafe & Krispy Krunchy chicken is worth every ⭐.The first moment I entered, it is clean. You can tell they value cleanliness.All food is cooked to order so it's nice, fresh, and hot.There are many food options for varying budgets.The service was friendly and respectful in communicating with customers.My friend and I purchased chicken (white and dark meat) yams, collard greens, JoJo potatoes, and cornbread.The chicken was so flavorful and Krunchy. The greens were well seasoned and bussin'. The only words to describe the sides were "delicious and filling".Check it out. Today was the grand reopening and worth it. I'll be back and bringing others with next time.

The new owners have completely revamped this place! Much more of a true Northside feel now and the food Northsiders really want!
Chicken dry and no seasoning. Biscuit taste old. The fries were the best outta the $55 I spent here.

Ordered a 12-piece with tenders and fries and have not been overly impressed. They've got the crunchy part down, but most everything else is lackluster. For starters everything is underseasoned. If you eat any of the chicken without the breading it's pretty bland - it doesn't taste like they brined it or did enough to get seasoning into the meat. With the breading it's crunchy but honestly could also use a bit more salt - the spices are nice though.However, the biggest issue is that the chicken is all overcooked. The tenders are dry and chewy. The regular pieces aren't quite as bad as the tenders in this regard, but still aren't juicy or tender. What really strikes me as odd though is the the meat is overcooked but some parts of the skin aren't completely rendered, so you occasionally get a flappy unchewable piece as you're eating.Everything is edible, and I could see how good this could be with these spices if the chicken wasn't overcooked and underseasoned and the skin was properly rendered, but that's not what I received.
