Excellent service, excellent food, excellent clean restaurant. The food is seasoned to perfection!!! I love it!

Take out only restaurant and I was not disappointed. They do offer a few benches outside if you want to sit down to eat after you order your to go food. The young lady was nice who took my order. They offer different flavor lemonades. I had to add water to mine because it was too sweet but tart at the same time. I had I ordered the turkey tip and jerk chicken combo. Also had the jerk salmon with spaghetti. Now my daughter said her food was good. I didn't personally taste her. My combo came with fries and the flavor on both meats didn't miss. I will say the chicken was a bit dry. Besides that my only complaint is I was told 30 mins on the salmon and that turned into 50 mins. read more

I ordered the large pork tips yesterday and I will NEVER be back!!! The portion size of the tips were a joke. The only thing large was the amount of fries they gave. The meat had no flavor at all!!! They were super dry and tough. Maybe 20% was even edible. A complete waste read more

Delicious food. Especially their vegetables. Customer service was on point. My new spot.

ommmmmgggg I wasn't expecting it to be this good and flavorful!! jerk chicken plate was very filling, I got a side of greens and a side of cabbage and it comes with the rice and peas and sauce, and a slice of bread. soooo good! I also got a side of the jerk chicken egg rolls with cheese and peppers, they were very good as well! a bit pricey, but you pay for good food! i'm not jamaican but it tastes authentic and you can tell they put love in their food service was friendly, make sure you have the card and ID to match if you order online! i'll definitely be back to try more things, it was a great first experience! read more

Was pretty good... I was surprised... why I don't know but the chicken, cabbage, mac&cheese and yams was good

Delicious! The chicken curry is slap yo mama delicious. In all seriousness, welll-prepared delicious food with generous portions. Want to get your $$$ worth and not disappoint your taste buds - this is the spot. read more

The Mac and cheese was a tad bit dry. Other than that. Everything was flavorful! Everything tasted fresh. I can literally eat a full cup of cabbage alone. The jerk sauce was spicy. I ordered 1/2 white came with 2 sides I chose cabbage and Mac- small order of sweet potatoes - Ginger koolaid- 2 extra jerk sauces. This came to $41.71. I don't think I've ever hit the $40 mark for jerk food. But the portion size is large. So I look at it as 2-3 servings. (If you like left overs. ) Place was clean. Service was professional . Quality check done on your food before you leave. They have byob events like comedy sometimes and an outside patio. Seems like it could be good vibe for the neighborhood. Kedzie can be a busy street sometimes. Hope this set Standard stays consistent and safe as they continue to grow in the community read more

Called to place a delivery order. The site says delivery orders require a minimum order of $50, which is fine and understandable. But once I called in I was told they don't deliver, when I informed the person on the phone that the site says they deliver, I was told "I must be on the wrong site", I was certain it was correct because I called using the phone number on the site. But still I confirmed the address with the person on the phone and told them the site definitely says they deliver on the home page, I was then was told something to the effect of "oh well sorry, we don't deliver", the entire conversation had a less than welcoming tone and lacked any semblance of good customer service. I do prefer to patronize local small businesses but this is a definite put off. read more

Herk Soule' is a tad further than I would've liked to go for takeout... but it was so worth it! The portions a large, and the food is great. I particularly liked the jerk sauce that got more tang from its garlic than it's vinegar. But here's the clencher: the online order was ready when I got there, and the cashier showed me every order in it's box, before loading-up, ensuring the order was correct! We'll be back for sure! read more

I decided to check this place out for dinner since it's in my neighborhood. The owner is super nice, even gave me a complimentary piece of jerk chicken, it was delicious. I even saw a celebrity, Cortez Smith, Nuck from The Chi. He held the door for me, he's such a gentleman and easy on the eyes. lol. My food was delicious. Nice size portions. I ordered the jerk shrimp with macaroni and cheese and cabbage and a whole chicken mixed with a side of cabbage. My cabbage was a little over cooked to me, it was a little mushy, it didn't have the crunch I like my cabbage to have, my husband said it was good. The price is what got me, I spent a little over $60 for chicken and shrimp and a side of cabbage. We both felt that was expensive. Overall, I highly recommend the place for the delicious food, friendly staff and fast service. Thank you read more

Rice was undercooked/stale chicken was extremely dry the sides were ok very expensive for quality they have a signs that say no returns so they will avoid accountability for the poor quality. read more

Jerk Soule is a new restaurant with a lot of potential to stand out as a Jamaican spot on the south side, thanks to its high-quality customer service. Upon entering, we were greeted by the owner and given samples of the jerk chicken, which was a welcoming gesture that set the business apart for me. The jerk chicken is well-seasoned inside and out, but it lacks the pronounced smoky taste of traditional jerk chicken since it isn't cooked on a Chicago-staple aquarium smoker or charcoal grill. I ordered the jerk rib tips, and my partner had the oxtail plate. All the meats were very tender and flavorful, but the absence of the grill's smoke and texture was noticeable. I didn't enjoy the barbecue sauce on the jerk tips as much, as I was expecting a savory jerk flavor. Instead, it was a sweet and savory mix that didn't quite hit the mark for me, though others might love it. We had sweet potatoes, cabbage, and the default rice and peas. Each of the sides was good but not amazing. The recipes have a bit of a kick, presumably from the scotch bonnet, so heads up if you're not a fan of heat. Personally, I enjoyed them. The price was reasonable, and the service was great. I will return to explore the menu further, but I hope they can secure an aquarium smoker instead of using an electric one in the future to enhance the textures and add smoke flavors. read more

The food is so authentic and delicious - jerk chicken was so tender and jerk sauce just right, rice and beans with good amount of gravy (not dry at all unlike many places), greens, cabbage, and yams were on point too! The owner Cedric and staff are so welcoming and friendly. I will definitely come here and and recommend to family and friends. read more

Ambiance great your in and out and you can sit outside while order being prepared and enjoy the weather. read more

Great delicious food, and I love that they show you your food before they close the box. That's incredible.

Does not taste good. Tastes bland. Mac and cheese is dry and flavorless. Whole chicken portion sizes are too small barely fits the container. Plus they give me 1 really small tiny size of jerk sauce who does that?! read more

Great food and AMAZING customer service. The owners were working the front desk and truly made u feel like family.

Finally found my jerk spot. The chicken was tender and juicy. The sauce was the right amount of heat and spice, I love heat but it was also flavorful, not just hot. The sides were like my favorite aunty's cooking from Mississippi. Check them out. read more

Chicken was great flavorful and juicy. Service was great. Yams was banging. Cabbage just ok. Rice and beans wasn't a fan. But overall good food read more

The container the cabbage was put in was busted. Half the cabbage was on top of the tip container. I ordered a large jerk tip but I received a small jerk tip. The tips tasted boiled, no heat, not a lot of flavor. read more

First time here based on the reviews and I had a Groupon. I ordered 1/2 white chicken dinner with cabbage and Mac & cheese. Dinners come with rice & peas. Also ordered a Beef Pattie. As a Jamerican I have been struggling with finding a consistent restaurant that I like. I came here based on the reviews and they did not disappoint. The food was flavorful and I will definitely be back. May not order Mac & cheese again because that ain't my go to side but I had to give it a try. Nice portions for the price. One suggestion is to get better to go containers. The section where my cabbage was broke underneath and on top. So had a lot of leakage. Staff was friendly and I like that they show you the order before you leave to make sure it's correct. I will give another try read more
