    When I'm not sure what to pack for school lunches I turn to Chicken Salad Chick. They make it super easy to order and pickup. I love how you can have the croissants, bread, or crackers on the side! That makes it super easy to make sandwiches for lunch boxes! There's so many different flavors that you won't get bored! You'll find sweet, savory, and even spicy flavors! 5 stars for good quality food and friendly employees.

    I've heard great things about this place and was finally able to see for myself. Definitely exceeded my expectations! The staff were friendly and allowed me to sample. I decided on the Cranberry Kelli which was sweet and flavorful. The side of fruit and pickle were very fresh. But complimentary cookie was the "sweetest" surprise. While dining in, staff could be seen checking in with customers and collecting used trays. There is still good business out there, and it's here!

    I was really excited to try their chicken salad, because for the past couple of weeks I've heard great things. This was my first time going to one of their locations and this review is solely based on their a la carte small chicken salad. When I walked inside, there was less than 4 people. I walked up to the counter and started asking the women general questions, such as what is the best chicken salad to try or what is your most popular meal. Instead of being helpful, she seemed annoyed and said grab a chicken salad from the fridge. I asked her again what are they most famous for and she said "Classic Carol". So that's what I chose and purchased the item. This was my dinner and I was not happy, for only 125 g/ ~4.4 oz of chicken, that I was charged 6 dollars. That seemed way overpriced for the size of the product. Since I was already annoyed with the service and package price, I was hoping to enjoy a high quality chicken salad. It was just... ok. The seasoning was decent, but that's about it. There's was only a small amount of celery and it tasted a bit processed. This chicken salad doesn't exactly compare to the freshness you'd taste from a small local business. In Cincinnati, I've tasted much better chicken salads. It's not that it was bad, it just wasn't great. I plan on visiting again to see if I have a better experience by ordering something different. I will update my review after that visit.

    I just had hand surgery so I ordered just the chicken salad because I thought I could make easy sandwiches one handed. I ordered through Uber Eats. First off the portions I ordered were suppose to feed 2-3 people, the very small portion would make 1 sandwich and not a very generous one at that (to be fair when I was writing this I weighed a pack, they are 8 oz each I was surprised, so $18 a pound). CSC website shows the price as $6.99 per pack, delivery price $8.99 per pack (I don't know who increased the price CSC or Uber eats and frankly don't care, that's what I paid. I ordered Fancy Nancy, Olivia's Old South, Classic Carol and Barbie-Q. Instead of the BBQ I got Dixie Chick which turned out to be the only one that had its own flavor. .like biting into a raw onion! It was the one flavor on the menu that I did not want to try. When my order arrived I took a taste of Classic Carol, it had no flavor at all, nothing...it was a flavor vacuum! Hoping it was just the one I tasted each one, with the exception of the onion bomb, they all tasted identical with no texture to any, no celery, nothing. The Fancy Nancy had apple, pecans and grapes. The apple had been in it so long it had no crunch and tasted like the salad, didn't have a pecan and the one grape had a little pop and sweetness left, the whole thing tasted spoiled. I will save the entire order for cat food, although they won't eat the onion bomb or the Fancy spoiled one. I am a retired Chef after 46 years so I have a fairly decent palate. Not only am I disappointed and will never order from here again I feel cheated! That was a lot of money for some cat food!

    This was a great spot to try out. The chicken salad has amazing flavors. The staff was friendly and nice. The service was fast. I love that they even threw in a mini cookie.

    Left: Sassy Scotty Right: Olivia's Old South  Pasta Salad
    carly g.

    I have always wondered "a whole restaurant for chicken salad?" So I finally tried it and it was delicious! Sassy Scotty was savory and cheesey and Olivia's Old South was a creamy and tangy. Loved both! My pasta salad was a little dry but still good. I definitely want to try Buffalo Barclays and the grape salad next!

    Not really buying their whole "made from scratch" thing. The chicken salads are highly processed- they contain preservatives and lots of additives.

I could order the same items from the regular menu, pay more, and have the bacon removed.

All because the restaurant wouldn't serve the salad without bacon under the Restaurant Week offer. Plus they charged us a service fee for using our credit card without clearly letting us know.

    Love. If I can use…read moreone word to describe my experience at Soul Secret, that's it. Love Amore Besotted Take great people (Melinda was our server and the chef came out to check on us...more about Melinda later)... Combine it with great food and great ambiance, and you get this restaurant! The first thing that you notice when you walk in is that it feels like home. Some restaurants focus heavily on decor and leave a lot to be desired in terms of ambiance, the people, and the food. And in other restaurants, you walk in and feel as if you can stay there forever. This is one of those places. We stayed there for a while. Imagine being in Grandmom's living room with pictures on the wall and positive music playing in the background. That's Soul Secrets. The menu is big enough to make sure that everyone can find something to eat, but not so big that you will struggle to make a decision. From fried catfish and grits to French toast to salmon croquettes and the largest pancake on Earth, there is something for everyone. My niece ordered the French toast, and my sister ordered a special breakfast that came with a pancake, grits, eggs, potatoes, and sausage. I was still hungry from last night's meal, (and you can read about it in another review) so I just nibbled off of my sister's meal. The French toast came out first, and I could tell immediately that the chef knew what she was doing. The rest of the food came out, and again, they brought the largest pancake I've ever seen. My sister was treating us today, and I was glad that the menu prices were very reasonable. My niece said that the French toast was delicious, and she ate as much as she could. She has a dance performance tonight and made sure that she didn't put her show at risk. It was difficult for her because the food was so good, but she managed and took a box home to eat it later. Yes. My sister nibbled on everything else and thoroughly enjoyed it. I had the grits and some of the pancake, and I have to say that it was very difficult for me to stop eating because it tasted so good. The pancake was perfectly cooked and fluffy with crispy bits on the edge. The grits were creamy and flavorful, even without cheese. The coffee was great. I had several cups. All in all, it was arguably better than any breakfast I've had at any restaurant that serves it. Now let's get back to Melinda. So often, the dining experience can be directly related to the person that greets you when you take a seat. Thank goodness we were greeted by Melinda. She has one of those energies and personalities that makes you feel as if she has been in your family for years. Funny and friendly, but at the same time, dedicated to making sure that you have a good experience. Again, I felt like I was at someone's home rather than in a restaurant. She called me a "troublemaker," which means that somehow she was seeing the 20-year-old version of me instead of the person that I am today. lol So here's the summary. If you are in Cincinnati and you want a great meal, there are many restaurants to choose from. It appears to be a pretty decent restaurant town. But if you want to FEEL Cincinnati, while feeling right at home and having one of the best meals ever- Soul Secrets is one for the ages.

Fun, attentive, engaging, and gave us great recommendations throughout the evening. We started with the oysters, Skillet Cornbread, Pork Belly Skewer, and H20 Melon. The cornbread was, without a doubt, the best we've ever had. Subtly sweet, pillowy without being cakey, with this amazing sweet-savory depth. The whipped Steen's butter was the perfect complement. WOW! The pork belly was another standout. The coconut Alabama BBQ was rich and flavorful without being heavy. The melon was beautifully plated, and the country ham added the perfect salty contrast. The oysters were the only miss for me. They had a little more of that "fishy" quality than I prefer, but I'm admittedly particular about oysters. For dinner, the Jollof was flavorful and beautifully prepared. The Lamb Neck was a little gamier than I personally prefer, but my son clearly disagreed because he devoured it down to the bone. Then came the IBÉRICO. When I tell you how good this was...we finished it and ordered a SECOND one! The pork with corn maque choux, chimichurri, and lime was incredible. Rich, bright, savory, and beautifully balanced. Easily the star of the evening. We finished with the Key Lime semifreddo, which was light and airy. I also had a Paper Plane, a simple cocktail that many places surprisingly don't get right. Nolia nailed it. Fresh citrus, quality ingredients, and perfectly balanced. I also loved the hospitality. The chef greeting guests as they arrive is such a small thing, but it immediately makes the experience feel warm and personal. Between the food, Henry's service, the cocktails, and the hospitality, this was such a lovely place to celebrate my son. If you haven't been to Nolia, GO. And order the Ibérico.

For my entree, I chose the jollof and the veggie selection for the evening which was grilled okra with a banana gastrique. That alone felt so cool, I had to order it. The jollof was so good, so filling, perfectly spiced and Chef actually broke it down for me all the spices he used to capture that flavor. I wish I had room for dessert, but I didn't want to go too crazy! Between the service (which they make it a point to open the door for everyone), the open kitchen, the food and then since I was a tourist they gave me recs for so many places to go in the city, I'm happy to rate this place 5 stars.

But the lovely owner/manager came over and said the "drinks are on me" because we waited so long. We appreciated that! The fried chicken was good, but the breading was very salty. The green beans were almost inedible because they were so salty. The mashed potatoes were average. The biscuits were fantastic. The fried deviled eggs were okay. A regular deviled egg is better. The shrimp and grits had a lot going on. The shrimp was lightly battered and fried (?) and the flavor of the dish was bold. I think sauteed shrimp and a little less gravy would make it perfect.

We were stunned by the immediate attitude.

To top it off, when we politely pointed out that we were given the wrong sides with our sandwich combo, the worker argued with us rather than fixing it. Food is only half the experience, and no amount of smoked brisket or pulled pork can make up for being treated like garbage.
