    West Africans making soul food is a delightful idea, and that is what you’ll find at Soul Spot. The fried chicken is exemplary and its natural accompaniments are two African vegetables, yams and okra. Read more

    It's been more than a year and I still remember how good it was. Went for the mac n' cheese, friend chicken and collard greens... THE (hala) soul food spot to go to while along Atlantic Avenue!

    "Supersavory" chicken and dumplings tread a delicious murky brown gravy. Moist meat loaf is slicked with an eerie but tasty candy-apple-red glaze. Nicely seasoned collards actually show signs of life. Read more

    Not a big fan of the bbq ribs, but I loved the chicken, mashed potatoes, and rice and gravy. All for $18. Lunch deals till 5pm, definitely would come again to try lamb chops this time

    This Cobble Hill carryout joint, with a few tables for eating in, defines "soul" as broadly as possible to include Afro-Caribbean and even African cooking. Read more

    The Oxtail is simply amazing and as you would expect the fried chicken is on point. Collard greens also delicious.

    Beef ribs appear to have been butchered by a psycho with a chain saw. The BBQ sauce is also far too sweet. Shame really because otherwise the food was awesome.

    False advertisement went out of my way to try this place out with the discount they advertised on four square and the girl at the counter says she can't take it because the manager was not there bull!

    Couldn't chew through the curry goat. The "cabbage" was mostly green peas & corn. Stick to the oxtails.

    I showed my four square discount and they said they no longer deal with four square so I paid full price. Super dissapointed:(

    Avoid the mac and cheese. Overcooked mac and floury cheese sauce lacks any real cheese flavour.
