On our first trip I was so amazed with the food I forgot to post a review. I had oxtails, yams, and mac & cheese. Oxtails were on a bed of rice with a very tasty gravy. Yams were on point. The Mac & cheese was good, however black pepper taste forward. Portions were big so I was able to have the oxtail for lunch the following day. Today I went with fried chicken wings, yams, and red beans. Another great dinner! If you're out in Manor stop by and chat with Fred Nunn. He's hilarious and a wonderful soul food chef,

If you can, order early and ahead. The man will take his time preparing your order and you will not say a word, until your order is ready. When he calls you to the window, every sense should begin to tingle because your about to devour a unique plate of food. I decided on the chicken strips and fries. Sounds pretty simple, right? Yeah, except for one thing... these chicken strips are PERFECT! The crunch of the breading, the moist "tender" white chicken meat melt into the perfectly spiced crust and there you will sit wondering, how? How? How does he do it??? Well there's no use pondering that question. It doesn't matter after you take another bite. Nothing. Not even the great fries.

However, on this particular day, I went by the food truck at 3 pm and all their plates were sold out. They only had two pans of seafood broil at $75, which I am told would feed 4 people. The stated hours are to 7 pm. I did not plan to buy food for 4 people...just one. The food truck manager said I should have called first to check to see if they had any plates left. Well, I could have called and so that is totally my bad. However, it is a reasonable expectation that you will not run out plates of food 4 hours before closing. I am going to be less likely to patronize this business in the future.

Because let me tell you right now, Mama'z earned it. It did everything that a 5 start review deserves. First, friendly service, even on a cold rainy day, even if it's a food truck.

Third, that first bite makes your mouth want to go tap dancing. You keep eating when you're full because it taste so good . Drop what you're doing and go here. You're welcome.

I ordered the fried fish plate with macaroni and cheese and candied yams, plus sides of sautéed cabbage and honey butter cornbread. My total came to just over $44, so I was expecting to be impressed. After ordering, someone came to the window and explained that they needed to make more mac & cheese and it would take 45 minutes. I requested a refund for that side, but when I received my order, it was included in the bag anyway. The food looked appealing, but my first bite of fish, while crispy, was flavorless. The mac & cheese wasn't mixed well and lacked seasoning. The candied yams had too much allspice, the sautéed cabbage was bitter, and the cornbread was crumbly rather than moist. Overall, I was disappointed--especially after waiting over 30 minutes for my food, having skipped breakfast in anticipation of this meal. Based on other reviews, I can see they've served great food, but unfortunately, today just wasn't that day.

The restaurant have a deck for outdoor shaded tables/seats. If you are not in the mood for the outside, there is plenty of tables and seats inside the restaurant. Staff is friendly and food is amazing! You can conveniently order and pay directly on their website for take out and delivery. After ordering from the website you will get a text to your mobile phone letting you know when your food will be ready. Super easy and convenient! Pick up was a breeze with going in and out. As for the food......this place is definitely a MUST TRY and have the BEST FRIED CHICKEN I've ever had. First time trying Jackson Soul and I ordered 3 piece fried chicken with Mac and cheese and collard greens, chicken fried steak, and 8 piece garlic Parmesan wings with Mac and cheese and mashed potatoes with gravy. The fried chicken is super crispy on the outside and super moist juicy in the inside! The chicken batter was seasoned so well with spices that one bite makes your palate buzzzzzzzz with a well balanced flavor! So unique and special! I didn't know fried chicken could ever taste so damn good! The mash potatoes and homemade gravy was well seasoned cream and delicious! Chicken fried steak was meaty and the perfect amount of steak to batter! The outside of the steak was crispy and the steak was moist. I will definitely order the fried chicken and chicken fried steak with mashed potatoes and gravy again! The garlic Parmesan wings had good flavor with a little heat from the dried chili flakes but it was not crispy and was a bit oily from the butter sauce. My family enjoyed the wings but I preferred the fried chicken . Will I be coming back? Heck yes! Jackson Soul restaurant is little soulful gem treasure in Elgin, TX! I will definitely be coming back and trying out their other items and lunch/day specials. Food, quality, proportion size, and price is great! Food is made with love and it shows in the food! 5 stars all the way!! No

Asked about the special and they notified me to which days it was being offered. This later in the afternoon and they advised that they were running low on items which was helpful to choose from the menu. Food: Unfortunately, I would like to give them a better rating but I was not satisfied what was so-called soul food. Only thing that was good was the fried ribs. The mac-n-cheese, and greens were not well cooked. Soul food to me is oven baked mac-n-cheese and not stove top mac-n-cheese. The greens were missing a lot of flavor. Again, the fried ribs were okay but nothing to be too excited about. Overall: I would like to give them another chance but I hope other items will taste a lot better than what I was able to experience. Once again, Mrs. Tonya was wonderful with excellent customer service and made you feel like family. Unfortunately, the food was not as good as I was expecting.
