Taste of Soul

I honestly can’t say enough good things about this delicious soul food restaurant! I have been several times over the past month, and my meal has impressed me every time!

Highlights: Epic oxtails (huge, tender, meaty), super cheesy baked mac & cheese, some of the best potato salad I’ve ever had, fork tender delicious smothered pork chops, amazing chicken livers!

Lowlight: The cornbread is a bit dry/crumbly for my tastes, but it still tastes good.

I drove an hr to get authentic soul food and wasted my time and money ,first I got the wrong meat then I got ribs that were swimming in BBQ sauce and they were nasty although after washing off the sauce my dogs enjoyed them ,the cabbage and Mac & cheese were edible but I make it better myself the corn bread was dry and tasteless. I am used to good soul food from New York and this place didn't even come close .Now maybe some other food is better because there were people enjoying their meal ,my sister was with me and got smothered pork chops and white rice a vegetable and said it was ok but not like NY

We were craving fried chicken, but not the thick batter that soaks up the grease. Theirs was light and fresh. We REALLY enjoyed everything. I highly recommend Taste of Soul if you are looking for good soul satisfying food!

Delicious fried chicken! Moist on the inside and great crispy crust! Mac and cheese tastes like the homemade that I make. we’ve been three times this past month. Everyone is very friendly and even came to our table our first time to make sure we all liked our food. The only negative for me would be the sweet tea…..it was way too sweet and they don’t offer unsweetened. All in all a good meal!

The chicken was delicious and very moist. Staff gives awesome service, they come around and check on you. The environment was clean and the prices was reasonable for great food. This was my first time having lunch there. Will definitely be going back 😄🍽️.

Amazing food beyond words. I can not even get the words in for how much I am beyond impressed with the quality, taste and friendly staff! Highly recommend this place. It's a hidden gem! You gotta try, for it is food out of the world. It is heavenly!

The owner herself dished out the delicious food she had so lovingly prepared including fried chicken that had been fried that instant.
Lunch special $8.35 includes 2 sides and drink.
Big selection of sides...delicious veggies.
OMG the mashed potatoes and gravy!
Excellent broad green beans.
For dessert a splendid piece of red velvet cake with fresh cream cheese frosting $4.75.
She said..."you'll be back".
She is right.
Everybody in the restaurant...mind you it was the middle of the day and this restaurant was still busy...was enjoying the food and the regulars were coming and going...
Try it!

After a recent delightful trip to Blue Spring State Park, my girlfriend and I decided to visit nearby Taste of Soul for what we hoped would be a delicious take-out meal. Upon further review and in our opinion, Taste of Soul certainly lives up to its name!

She ordered the shrimp and fries, with sides of macaroni and cheese grits, while I ordered the fish, shrimp and fries with a side of mac and cheese and a drink. While briefly waiting in store for our meals to be ready, I tried some of their Party Punch--and am delighted I did! Reminiscent of Kool Aid, it was potent and had great flavor---a little bit surely goes a long way!

Upon receiving our meals, we dug in and were truly impressed! The shrimp and fish were both nicely but not over breaded, perfectly fried to a golden brown, and the meat was fresh, tender and plump. The fries were decent (crinkle cuts are always fantastic), but easily upstaged by the deliciousness of the mac and cheese and cheese grit sides.

The restaurant staff all were polite, engaging, and full of smiles and laughter! We greatly look forward to returning to Taste of Soul in the future!
