House of Soul Food

House of Soul Food is one of the most unique dining experiences I have ever encountered. They serve some of the most authentic, traditional Southern comfort food I've ever eaten, including dining in the actual South. The ambiance that characterizes House of Soul Food is so warm, welcoming and friendly, you actually feel as if you're dining at your own kitchen table. There are literally seats and sofas set in front of a large television by a fire place in the main room of the restaurant and the rest of the tables are wooden, creating a really homey feel.

Their entrees revolve around barbecue and meat, in its various different forms. They have BBQ chicken, fried chicken, brisket plates, burgers, fried catfish and more. Their portions of meat are so large that they can easily be two meals for even the hungriest of college students. But to top off the main event are a bunch of delicious sides! Cornbread comes with almost every dish you can order for lunch and dinner, and is to die for. It's served warm with honey butter and literally melts in your mouth. Entrees also come with another two sides like fried sweet potatoes, corn on the cob, hush puppies, collard greens, friend okra, potato salad, baked beans and baked mac n cheese. Choosing amongst those many options, is IMPOSSIBLE.

This is the perfect destination for those mood to be fuller than it is comfortable to be, and still have leftovers. Since House of Soul Food is not only an eatery, but a dining experience, I would recommend coming with a big group of people so that you can try as many side dishes as humanly possible and planning on staying a while to enjoy the homey atmosphere.
