I was very disappointed in the taste of the center piece lobster, though. My date got something else. I don't know how, but this place made Brussels sprouts taste good for a bit. Service was great. I like to be left alone for the most part, and they did just that. My waiter would pop in and out at the perfect moment. I would give the ambiance a 9/10. I loved the hints gold and the dark teal(?) wallpaper

Went to Soul Food Lounge for a birthday dinner. The space is pretty small and every seat was taken,…read moreso there is really nowhere to wait if you do not have reservations. Definitely book ahead. We all ordered the Grand Tasting, which lets you try three entrees plus a beverage. It was so much food but everything was delicious. I had the short rib, fried chicken, and catfish, each with different sides. The only thing I did not really care for was the dressing. They also had live entertainment, which made the vibe even better. Customer service was just okay, but I would still recommend it. I definitely want to try their other location since I have heard the menu is different.

The food however, was kind of cold like it had been sitting waiting. My mushroom/cheese omelet was a bit overcooked, and cheese distribution seemed like an afterthought. Hash browns seemed like some mashed potatoes flipped once. The coffee? Like Folgers. There is a "Greek bread" offered with is thick white bread with sesame seeds, and sort of odd, not bad, not interesting. There are other diner-like menu items, but in thinking about it, IHoP does this so much better and at about the same price. We had higher hopes.

We sat down, noticing that we were the only customers in the cafe (*awkward), but the awkwardness was quickly alleviated with our server (owner?) and cook -both guys were great! Food was very good! On the way out, I just noted to our server that my water cup had a crack in it -nbd though, it was plastic. Good experience overall.

Came on a Sunday and didn't realize the brunch is a buffet and you get to choose an entree with a…read morecomplimentary drink. It was very hot outside, so I got an iced tea. Went to the buffet and had tried their shrimp cocktails (not peeled), raw oyster, smoked salmon, mini croissant, pastries, and quiche. The buffet also had crab claws, muffins, fruit, and salad that I didn't have a chance to try as I was getting too full. The smoked salmon was my favorite. The quiche had two types; salmon was salty and the other I think spinach was too egg yolk taste. Both were dense and not light. Oysters were fine and didn't get sick afterwards. For the entree, I originally wanted the lobster toast, but the waiter mentioned it is a small dish. So I choose the Herb crusted white fish, which was really delicious. The fish was cooked perfectly and was juicy. Came with mashed potatoes and spinach. Then, for dessert I had tried the lemon bar and crème brûlée. Both very good. I did see someone else order the crab cake royal, it was a decent size and looked bigger in person than the photo I found on yelp. Would probably try that if I have a chance to come back.

We enjoyed that same inviting attitude from every member of the staff during our meal as well. The dining area was beautifully decorated and very clean and comfortable. Warm, fresh, crusty bread service was delicious with my delicious choice of one of several French wines by the glass. Price point is reasonable. My Petite Mesclun salad was fresh and flavorful. The White Fish in lemon caper sauce was truly sublime! What an explosion of flavor and texture, with sautéed spinach leaves! I finished with hot tea and a trio of seasonal fruit sorbets. Yum! Highly recommended.
