Wow. I don't even know if I have a picture to show you. I may need to go back and get more to get a…read morepic. Haha It was fantastic. The ribs were slow-cooked and tender with flavor that went through the meat to the bone. The sweet potato was caramelized and decadent like a dessert. The macaroni and cheese was very cheesy and definitely American (I am Caribbean so I have a different way of our macaroni and cheese). The fried chicken was crispy and crunchy (Remember all crunch will disappear if microwaved but it is still delicious). I will update once I taste the potato salad and collard greens. The cake they give you is a typical add-on so don't get annoyed if you get a sliver. You are so loaded up on carbs from the macaroni and cheese, sweet potatoes, breading on the chicken and the small Hawaiian roll that... your cholesterol will thank you for not adding on a hunk of cake. That lemon cake was made correctly though even if it reminded me of a slice of Betty Crocker cake. :) The stars of these dishes are the food! Sunday it was open over on Millbrook with proceeds heading to the TCC ministry. I feel like I did something great for mind, body and spirit. Yum!!!

I hate doing this to black owned businesses but I have to be honest. For $30 I was not satisfied at…read moreall. I'd heart good things about this place and it did not live up to the hype! The meat really did taste as if it was refried or the grease was old. Definitely wasn't fresh. The macaroni and cheese was just noodles and cheese, no flavor. The yams were stringy. The turkey collards were the only thing I enjoyed. The "cake" was honestly a mini portion of a store bought pound cake. I felt totally ripped off when I could've dinned in elsewhere for a completely different experience for $30. The staff was very nonchalant when I introduced myself as a first time customer asking for suggestions. There aren't many designated soul food places in Raleigh and I feel like this is totally a missed opportunity and it's unfortunate because I drove almost 30 min each way just for them.

I haven't tried a lot of vegan food in my life, but I was really impressed by Soul's Kitchen! They…read morehave a beautiful food truck (which is actually a bus) and they put out a cute table with menus and examples of some of their food. I tried their Oyster Shroom Po'Boy and it was really good! I don't particularly like mushrooms, but it didn't taste like mushrooms at all. The mushrooms were seasoned and fried to perfection. My box was packed full of food, I couldn't even see the bun they put so many fried mushrooms on top of it! The fries were okay.

My first visit was on a very hot day for this food truck. The Ouster Mushroom Po' Boy was…read moredefinitely worth the ride for me! They were lightly fried and the roll was overflowing just like my first "Shrimp Po' Boy" in New Orleans, years ago. This was definitely a hit, for me, with a side of Mac n cheese! My 2nd visit, I tried the "Smakin Mac Bowl"! A very nice helping of their Mac & cheese, topped with Carolina BarbeQ, underneath a portion of lightly fried onions! It did not disappoint! The owners are very friendly and make sure you are satisfied with their offerings! The ambience is "the food", due to it being a food truck! I check their schedule for local locations and make it my business to drop in to please my palate! If you are looking for a tasty vegan meal, find their truck and drop in! Tell them Reggie sent you!

The second best bacon cheeseburger I've had in my LIFE…read more Someone local recommended this place to us so we checked it out. I wasn't too excited because it's not the type of place I'd usually pick, but I went to go along with the group. It ended up being the best place we went during the whole visit to Raleigh. First off, the biscuits and hush puppies they bring out to start were so good. They were better than the biscuits we had at breakfast at a nearby restaurant that actually specializes in biscuits, and the honey butter was intensely flavorful. I just ordered the 4 sides because I'm not a big meat person, and while they were good, once I tasted the cheeseburger someone else at the table ordered, I ended up stealing it from him. They grind the beef for the burger in house, and the quality of the meat is top notch. The service was also 10/10. I don't normally notice or care about service since I'm just in it for the food, but this is one of the few restaurants where I felt genuinely welcomed in. I will absolutely be prioritizing coming back here again next time I'm visiting.

The brisket was a little fatty for me yet I like my brisket lean. And the pulled pork was tasty. Also, the deviled eggs for appetizers are a must get The service was good very fast to get your food out and the ambience was your cute. Typical Carolina barbecue restaurant.
