We had such a great experience last time we had to come back. We love coming to spots that are consistent every single time and Soho is just that! Every single bite and sip was perfection! On the weekend make sure to make a reservation or get there right when they open to grab a seat at the bar as it is first come first serve! We will absolutely be back again!

New location, bigger space, nice decor and ambiance. The food was great as always. They took a lot of dishes off that I used to enjoy from the old location. The chicken breast was great but the chicken thigh was extremely fatty and off putting. But will 100% return. read more

David was a kind server. I ordered the chicken with 2 sides. I ordered all white, but they gave me a white and dark. I didn't send it back, but was a bit disappointed. I enjoyed the Mac and cheese and grits as sides. The location and vibe of the restaurant is ideal for any time and with varied company. read more

New location, same excellent service, food and new cocktails and menu items! I am obsessed with the new "fried rice" and the mainstays like deviled eggs, chicken and waffles, hush puppies and gravy remain top notch. I'd give SOHO 1,000 stars if it could. You can't miss here. The only miss is by not going and not going frequently. read more

Delicious hot cocktail. Tasty deviled eggs. Super busy on a Sunday at noon. Personable staff. The tater tots were unexpectedly good. The chicken bun was a fried chicken patty sandwich with fried egg and pickle relish mayo mix. An amped up take on a classic sandwich indeed. read more

Went here for brunch on Sunday and had a great time. I would recommend a reservation or to arrive right when they open as it's a popular spot. My friends loved their Shakshuka i liked the eggs Benedict but the star of the show were the deviled eggs and chicken & waffles. The deviled eggs were perfect and we polished off two orders between the 6 of us. The coldbrew came in beer style bottles which was cute. The hot sauce was excellent. If they offered espresso drinks I'd be there every weekend! read more

Was so looking forward to trying out this spot, after pursuing it for so long. Unfortunately, I have to say that I was underwhelmed by the meal experience. Came with a large(r) group, and the staff was extremely accommodating to this request (we did have a reservation set-up) and provided excellent service to all. Given the small footprint inside and the densely populated dining space, the cranked up music made it quite difficult to hear each other speak and hold a conversation. Having said that, it is certainly a lively place filled with energy! As for the meal itself...there were issues. Our table received a couple of plates of complimentary biscuits with jelly and butter, but they were already fairly cool and therefore more on the hard and dry side than warm and fluffy. I did enjoy their jelly / butter combo. For my main dish I opted for the chicken and waffles, upgrading my plate to both a breast and thigh in order to try both variations (you can choose either/or). The waffle sections came doused in powdered sugar (as was the warm syrup) and two decent sized boneless chicken pieces breaded and fried. The waffle were certainly on the dry side, which was a bit disappointing. The fried batter on the chicken lacked any real punch of flavor so I applied the available homemade hot sauce which was on the tame side in terms of heat and spice flavor as well. Maybe it was just an off night in the kitchen? Maybe a brunch meal is the better option (as many others here have noted)? Not sure what was going on, but things were "off". read more

Delicious as always. Stopped by recently for dinner and it was my first visit in the new spot- some new menu items but my fav friend tofu with Mac n' cheese was just as I remembered! Great cocktails too. We had a lovely server and the vibe in the new space is just as cozy as the old spot. A long-time favorite! read more

The biscuits were good, however the rest of the meal was mediocre. The chicken breast fillet and mashed potatoes reminded me of the Stouffer's fried chicken dinner. read more

This is the type of plate that makes you feel like you're in grandma's kitchen: greens, gravy, mac, and fried chicken so tender and flavorful it could be eaten on its own. All at an extremely reasonable price--this is a Cleveland must-eat. Pictured: Evenin' Chicken Dinner with a side of Gouda Mac & Cheese. read more

We have gone here on multiple occasions with groups for celebrations and get togethers. Over the years, it is one of our favorite spots. It's moody and candlelit, romantic, but has a close dinner party feel. Wonderful whiskey and cocktails. The apps are to die for, and you get served a large portioned meal with really good quality protein. All the sides and flavors really go well together in every dish I've had. It is also consistently good every time we go here! Waitstaff is friendly and really can recommend great menu options. It is always busy! We recommend you make a reservation or you'll for sure have to wait! :) We saw that the lease for the current location is possibly being turned over to a Chipotle next year in a Cleveland news outlet. This is so disheartening and saddening. We definitely need to stop by a few more times to show our support!! This location is a staple and the space is really nice. Hoping that the landlord rethinks this to help out a family business that is seriously talented and has an amazing food scene and gathering atmosphere. They do have gluten free batter fyi! read more

Came in here on a Thursday night after several recommendations and was amazed at how refined and cozy the small dining room felt! Perfect for date night. Started off with complimentary biscuits, butter, and jam to kick off the southern vibes. We tried the buffalo hush puppies which were fantastic. Well crafted cocktails came next with fast and pleasant service. Tried the late night chicken dinner meal and the chicken was crispy, juicy, and excellent. The ham collared greens were also fantastic. Man and cheese was very good but nothing to write home about. Overall will definitely be back and would recommend this place to anyone who is craving some southern comfort! read more

The food was excellent. As a vegan(ish) diner, I knew my options would be limited at a chicken place, but they did have a breaded tofu option that was pretty darn good, and at least two of the sides were vegan (sauteed green beans and dilly slaw). I didn't ask about the biscuit, and just ate it anyway. The only real downside was the noise level. I could barely hear what my guest was saying. We literally had to shout. read more

I absolutely loved the food. The ambiance the service and every single side dish was perfect. My wife and I shared everything and we loved everything. The drinks were great, the chicken was some of the best I ever had. The fried green tomatoes were on another level. read more

Amazing fried chicken! Great hot sauce and yum collards! Great service. Lovely atmosphere.

This place is a gem. Four blocks from Imposters theater. Great menu and - yes - the chicken is exquisite. Excellent cocktail menu, superb service. Ambiance inside and outside are ideal. The vibe is great, too. Professional staff; attentive and warm. A winner in every way. read more

Went to this place for a group brunch and they were sweet enough to accomodate a larger reservation than they usually allow. We also felt we had plenty of space and the staff was very attentive. As for the food, everyone loved what they got. I got the chicken and waffles. It comes with 3 waffles and 2 pieces of chicken: one piece is breast and one is thigh which both were cooked perfectly and tasted delicious. The waffles had rosemary in them, which I wasn't sure what to think about that but it didn't take away from my experience and would order again! Loved the complimentary app they gave each tables and overall just enjoyed the ambience of the place too. read more

Delicious!!! Came here after a recommendation and the food was amazing, service was excellent and the food came out quickly. There's a reason why it's been a top establishment for all these years - they're consistent. I will be coming back and recommending this place to others! On Wednesdays you can order a La carte, instead of getting their whole dish that has already been pre-selected. read more

The customer service was great. And the chicken and waffles were amazing!!! The chicken has nice flavor to it and if you like spicy, ask for a spicy sauce on the side. The espresso martini is strong, but good. If you love chicken and waffles, then you need to try this place. I know we will go back here again. read more

Soho is a solid weekend brunch option. The service was friendly and we enjoyed the food. I got the steak and eggs and the steak was cooked perfectly and well seasoned. The biscuits and jam that they give to each table are also a treat. We had one small issue with the hash tasting a bit charred, enough to where it was interfering with the rest of the meal and they had the kitchen remake it without an issue. It's been awhile since I've visited at dinner time, but their dinner options are worth trying as well. read more

Made an 11am reservation for 2 of us (first timers) for Saturday brunch. Three days later, I'm still daydreaming about my meal. Highly recommend the Southern Benedict and I'm a tequila girl so, a De La Soul to drink. The restaurant opened on 'half power' and did an amazing job pivoting. Battery candles actually contributed to the ambiance in an amazing way. Service was great despite the staff's challenges and everything was delectable! read more

Soho is consistently awesome! My only complaint is that it's always hard to decide what to order because there are so many great dishes to choose from. :) Some of my favorites include the fried green tomatoes, hush puppies, pimento cheese, and chicken + waffles. It's a great spot for a date or a group of friends. Cute and cozy inside (but a little bit too dark, which makes it challenging to read the menu - or to take really good photos lol.) read more

First visit to Soho Chicken and Whiskey. Had reservations on a recent Saturday night. Seated immediately. Good thing we had reservations, place was packed, bar area completely full. Not a huge place so can seem at bit claustrophobic. Service and food were both excellent. Seemed like that had a full staff, didn't notice anyone else having service issues. Had the 'Bottled-in-Bond' bourbon flight. Very nicely presented. They do have an amazing bourbon selection. Also had a Manhattan with dinner that was also very good. Had the 'Evening' chicken dinner. Delicious. Chicken tender and juicy, green beans were done just right and mashed potatoes were solid. All in our group enjoyed their food. All in all great experience. If anything food came out a little too quick so felt slightly rushed. Menu is somewhat limited but everything our table had was good to really good. Prices were reasonable. Definitely recommend. read more

Definitely put on your list to check out! We wandered in as soon as they opened without a reservation. It was a good idea that we did get there as early as we did. It was PACKED in a matter of minutes, but we were lucky enough to snag a table. Our waiter was incredibly friendly and helpful, and it didn't take too long to figure out what we wanted. The menu is short which works in my book. It means they make a few things well, and that prophecy ended up coming true. We ordered the crab cake appetizer which was tasty, though perhaps the most lackluster part of our meal. We were glad we tried it though. I loved my chicken and waffles entree and my fiancé really enjoyed his Nashville chicken sandwich. I snagged a couple bites before it started getting too spicy for me, but I still enjoyed it! We ordered drinks too, and they were all really delicious. Overall we enjoyed our evening. The final bill caught us a little off guard, so keep in mind this is a pricier sort of place. Still it's a great place to check out at least once, so when you're feeling like a night out, consider Soho Chicken + Whiskey! read more

I was in Cleveland for a wedding and wanted to get out of the hotel for brunch. Came across Soho Chicken and Whiskey and decided to give it a try! I arrived right when they opened at 11am on a Sunday and to my surprise, the space was bustling except for the bar area. I was greeted by a couple of lovely bartenders who were super friendly. Something about them make you feel right at home or like you've known them for a while. On to the food. Since the place is called Chicken and Whiskey, I decided to order the Chicken and Waffles + a side of bacon. To my surprise, they start you out with a complimentary biscuit and what I believe is housemade jam+ butter. The jam and butter were delicious. The biscuit was warm but a little dense for my liking. The Chicken was perfectly seasoned, piping hot, and crispy. They definitely live up to their name when it comes to the chicken. The Waffle was just okay texture wise and seasoned with fresh rosemary. Could have skipped the rosemary. They also offer their housemade hot sauce which was wonderful. I enjoyed mixing it with the syrup and dipping my chicken in it. Yum! The bacon was thick, crispy and sticky. definitely recommend if you're a bacon lover. All in all, I'd revisit when I return to Cleveland as I'd love to try some of their dinner/lunch entrees (and some whiskey). read more

I wish I could give 4.5 stars! The food was phenomenal, but the drinks were meh. We arrived for brunch about 5 minutes before they opened, and there was already a line forming. I would definitely suggest having a reservation, as the place was full literally within 15 minutes. Luckily they had a few tables available for walk-ins, and we were able to snag one. Our server was super nice and very fast, which was good because we were pretty starved. We started with a couple of cocktails, which were honestly pretty underwhelming. Both were a bit watery and bland, though not horrible. Our disappointment was balanced out by the wonderful biscuits we were brought instead of bread. They were so ridiculously yummy, and the jam and rosemary butter was good enough that I may have had a spoonful by itself! For our meal we got the chicken and waffles and the steak and eggs, both of which were phenomenal. The waffles were not overly sweet or heavy, which I loved. The steak was also cooked to perfection, and the potato/brussels/bacon hash is a brilliant idea executed perfectly. My only disappointment with the food was that I couldn't try the other 5 things on the menu that I wanted to! read more

I had the Chicken and Waffles as well as the Beignets, and I have to say these have been my favorite chicken and waffles I have had. They are so delicious. The rosemary in the waffles really enhance the flavoring. The chicken is so juicy. And the complimentary biscuits are delicious too. The biscuits and beignets come with this raspberry jam that is AMAZING. My friends and I came for brunch and the atmosphere was lovely and so comfortable. We really enjoyed our chat. I do recommend making a reservation early because it's a small place and it does get booked pretty quickly! read more

Fortunately for us, we have a friend in the area who recommended several local hot spots, SoHo being one of them. Our visit was phenomenal! Traveling from Florida, I was shocked at the authenticity of the southern cuisine. They have everything from home-made biscuits to pimento cheese. The fried chicken is obviously the star of the show but there is no downplaying the Gouda Mac and cheese and the collards that shared space on my place. Infact, I'd have to say that those 2 sides were my favorite. This is a must, especially if you are from the north and don't frequently eat southern cuisine. read more

Great food, great vibes, great service. Highly recommend trying this place. You won't be disappointed. They give you biscuits to start off which are so tasty.

The mac and cheese was delicious. They also have super tasty drinks. Also, you may need reservations! read more
