Reviews for The Soul Spot in Brooklyn, NY
Star of the show is the lamb, it's fall off the bone tender, seasoned very well. Jerk chicken has a nice flavor without getting... overwhelmingly spicy. Sides are all delicious. Only downside, mac and cheese is a bit too cheesy for my liking Read more
We tried a little bit of alot of different foods. We love that we could come to New York and find Halal soul food ? The food was... good. Was I crazy about it and can't wait to go back, not really. But the food was good. Definitely worth trying! The oxtail isgood, it has a little spice kick to it, the bbq chicken was ok, my friend had the baked chicken and ribs and said it was good. Ithink she enjoyed the food more than me. Now the mac n cheese, greens and yams, was really good. That's worth coming back for,if you come that's a must. Also, let me know what your favorite dish is if you go here! Read more
I ordered a baked Salmon dinner and Salmon croquette dinner. I was charged for both. They did not put any croquettes in the dish... and charge me full price. I had to call them back after reaching home and informed them. They refunded the charge of the mealbut of course but the tax was not included. If I would have known the service would be so poor I would not have tipped. Butsince we all have been having a terrible time these last two years that is fine. May have been an honest mistake. In regards tothe food, the flavor is excellent. I still will be returning. We all deserve chances to improve. Read more
The food is simply amazing. Great soul food in the middle of downtown Brooklyn. The selection is extensive. From fried... chicken, stew chicken, meatloaf, fried catfish, shrimp and so many other dishes. The string beans were amazing. Collards, yamsand Mac and cheese were some of the other sides. The corn bread was amazing. The dining area is quaint for the mostly carryoutand delivery spot. Carryout and deliveries were rolling out the door while I was there. I will go back for sure. Read more
The food was good and the staff was friendly. I prefer actual shrimps compared to what they sell though. They do have good... flavors and offer a wide variety of food. I would recommend them to everyone looking to grab a bite to eat while DowntownBrooklyn. Some days, however, they may not have what you want. Stew chicken isn?t always available which is a shame but go checkthem out. Read more
First time visitor. The food was just okay. Customer service was very poor. I was not greeted by the staff. I walked up to the... counter?still no greeting. I wasn?t offered any assistance or acknowledged and there were two servers at the front. It was aslow evening and I was the only customer in the restaurant. It took several minutes before one of the servers asked me if I was?ready?. The cornbread was cut extremely small. This is the first restaurant to charge me a 20 cents fee for a standard plasticbag. This really turned me off and I wouldn?t recommend or return. I?ve received better portions of food and welcoming serviceat other restaurants. Please train your staff to atleast greet the customers, which is the bare minimum. Read more
My husband and I absolutely loved Soul Spot! The candied yams were amazing, the baked chicken fell off the bone, and the mashed... potatoes might have just been the best I've ever had! Such a quaint little spot with delicious food. Highly recommend! Read more
The one and only halal Southern soul food & Caribbean spot in Brooklyn. Soul Spot?s serving size and its fall off the bone... tender deliciousness has everyone coming back for more. From the moment you walk in the aroma hits you right away. From theoxtail, jerk chicken and bbq beef ribs everything was super succulent and very tender. Their candied yams had the perfect amountof sweetness. So many sides to choose from. Had to get their baked mac and cheese, sweet corn and mashed potatoes. The platingwas A1. Can?t forget their corn bread with a side of their homemade ice teas! I?m telling y?all you can taste the love in eachbite! Read more
