Reviews for SOUL BOWL in Minneapolis, MN
Soul Bowl has potential, but there's room for improvement in both value and quality of the food. I came here because I won a... gift card, but if I would have paid on my own I would've walked away feeling ripped off. I got the sweet and savory A.A. (DoubleA) sandwich, which was $15.68, and a small can of Diet Coke for around $3.50. Note that this place is on the second floor ofGraze Provisions - I had to ask someone where it was. I wouldn't mind spending the money to support a local business, but I'dexpect the flavor and quality to reflect the price. My favorite part of the bowl was the fried chicken, and while it definitelyhad potential, it was too salty for my liking and a bit over-cooked. The crispy breading mostly fell off the chicken, so I endedup getting mouthfuls of breading with no meat. The cornbread was fine, though a bit dry. I was hungry but only ended up eatingabout half the bowl because it just wasn't doing it for me. Overall it was just okay; I wouldn't seek it out again, especiallyfor the high price. Read more
Graze in general is a great place for the indecisive. I wanted fried chicken and soul bowl did not disappoint. The food is... comforting. The collard greens were smoky. And the yams creamy and soft. As for the girls behind the counter super helpful. Aseverything looked good and they made a hybrid to my meal so I could get all the tastebud feels. Thank you! And we?ll definitelybe back. ????

I had a great experience with Soul Bowl! I build my own bowl and had Mac and cheese, jerk chicken and corn. The portion size was... more than enough and the flavors were incredible! I definitely tasted the jerk seasoning/sauce and it paired nicely with the Macand cheese. The staff was incredibly friendly and I liked that there were vegan/vegetarian options. I would definitely go back. Read more
Stumbled upon this gem while at the Modist Brewery close by. It?s situated in an indoor two-floor food court with bars on both... floors and all the places having food truck vibes. Perfect for the rainy day. The lady that took our order and delivered ourfood went by Solo and she is a wonderful employee to watch. She alone was running the front (register, packaging food anddelivering). She offered us samples of the sides when we asked her opinion on some items. She was also very plentiful / notskimpy with the food portions whatsoever. I was honestly baffled on the amount of food she packed into the bowls. She made itlike she was the customer wanting everyone penny they were spending. The food itself was delicious. We both made our own bowls.Rice, macaroni, jerk & fried chickens, sweet yams, corn, collards cornbread, etc. was all good. 10/10 experience from me. Read more
I ordered a Caribe bowl, side chick salad, and fried tomatoes. In the bowl, I wish that the chicken tasted more jerk. I tasted... some of the spice, not a lot of the jerk sauce. The plantains were my favorite part of this bowl. I ordered a side chick salad,I wasn't a big fan of that either. I didn't know what to expect with it, it was lettuce, cheese, and jerky. The best part of themeal was the fried tomatoes, I was really happy with how they came out. They came with a buffalo sauce as well, but the tomatoeswere so tasty I only used the sauce sparingly. I was hoping the entire meal would taste better, if I did end up coming hereagain, I'd probably just get the fried tomatoes. The proportions felt a little small for how much money it cost. Read more
Let me pre-face this by saying, I?m not one to write reviews unless the experience is above and beyond or absolutely terrible??... I was so excited to try this place as I?ve been traveling back-and-forth to Minnesota for the last month and really tired ofeating out. So I chose some thing that isn?t typical takeout food or fast food. I thought the menu was very clever andinteresting so that made me believe the food was going to be amazing. Unfortunately, the food was far from amazing. I orderedthe Southern hospitality meal which comes with fried chicken, greens, mac & cheese, and yams. I also ordered the peach cobblercheesecake. I honestly can?t say anything good about ANY of the food. Chicken - over cooked, over seasoned, batter falling off,fatty. Greens - taste dirty (like they were picked from the ground and not washed) Mac n cheese - all noodles and 5%cheese Yams - not seasoned with that sweet southerness I was hoping for. Peach cobbler cheesecake - tiny slice for $9 but itdidn?t matter because it wasn?t even good. I took one bite and trashed it. I was really disappointed because they have a 4.5rating and I?m so confused on how. Visually, it doesn?t look that bad but the taste is off. Maybe it was an off day but for theprice, I will not try this place again. Read more
The food is delicious! The spice is on point, the flavor is perfection and the space is full of life. I'd go everyday if I... could! FYI: Soul Bowl is inside The Graze and the drinks aren't bad. Read more
This is the kind of place where if I mention I?m going to Soul Bowl, the rest of the family texts ?oh get me a bowl?. I love the... food here. The fried chicken is fantastic! They change the menu from time to time which keeps the flavors fresh. I always buildmy own bowls so I get everything I want. I usually got with the Mac and cheese and choose meat and sides depending on my mood.They are located in the Graze North Loop with some other fantastic restaurants! Read more
