    Patty Melt  Regular Fries
    John S.

    I was originally planning to go elsewhere for lunch but due to a special event ended up here instead. I had been before for lunch awhile back and recalled enjoying it. Seated immediately by the Friendly staff. After a bit of trying to decide, I settled on the Basically Famous Fried Chicken Finger Plate with side of Regular Tots (instead of the Parmesan Truffle) and Street Corn. I had intended to save a couple of the chicken pieces and some of the tots for lunch the next day. But it was so good I ate it all! Even though parking can be a little challenging at the SoHo area, I consistently can find an available space in the underground parking garage. While I thoroughly enjoyed my lunch, they need a lunch menu with smaller portions and pricing for me to come back more often.

    My first trip to this restaurant was excellent, and I have my co-worker to thank for it! He has been sharing the Burger of the Month with us since he started working for the company. So on the last day of work before the Christmas holiday, several of us agreed to go with him to SoHo Social to try the December Burger of the Month. This restaurant is located in the Homewood City Center in SoHo Square. We met at the restaurant at 11:30am. The parking was insane, but we found decent places. The restaurant was decorated for Christmas and a few servers had Christmas pins on, which was nice. The December Burger of the Month was the Spicy Cahaba, which was 2 smashed beef patties, jalapeño bacon, fresh jalapeños, smashed garlic tots, and 3 sauces - buffalo sauce, ranch sauce, and Cahaba sauce. It sounded so messy, so I wore black instead of cream like I was planning. We placed our orders and about 15 minutes later, we had our plates. Most of us did the Burger of the Month, but some did other burgers because they could not do the jalapeño. My co-worker was right. The flavor of the burger was unbelievably good. It was not as messy as I first thought, even though I did go through several paper towels that were on the table. I enjoyed my burger and fries, and so did my other co-workers. The icing on the cake for me was the group playing Secret Santa a couple of tables next to us. They were having a ball and even though others were feeling their table was too loud, I was loving it! Made me want to dig in my purse for something so I could be part of the game! When my husband heals from his oral surgery, we will have to come here for date night. Definitely recommend!

    Steak Caesar with fries and one of their burgers with fries!

    Very social place to hang! Like any other sports bar but i like the atmosphere and their steak Caesar was amazing!

    soho social is a staple in my life! i come here pretty often for happy hours and lunches. my most recent order were the gringo loco tacos and they were amazing! this restaurant is perfect for a casual lunch or a date night! i highly recommend stopping by here - service is great and staff is always kind.

    Espresso Martini
    Elisha A.

    Food was mediocre, wings were terrible I did not like the flavor . Eggrolls were ok. Restaurant was very dimly lit. Ambiance was cool service was nice . Staff was friendly. Seasonal espresso martini was amazing I had 3 . I would only come back for the drink and not for the food. Side note : the bathrooms were clean

    This resteraunt is good. The food was great. The noise level is high. It took me a second to get used to.

    Shrimp tacos and broccoli salad
    Jasmine T.

    I come here pretty often for lunch and happy hour. They have great burgers, tacos, and sides. My fav dish has been the crabcake blt and tots. They're drinks are also bomb! They're pretty and potent, just like I like em lol. I've sat at the bar, on the patio, and some tables inside and received good service each time. Definitely a Homewood gem.

    The Harvest Bowl
    Lyn D.

    I went during happy hour when most of their cocktails were half off. I ordered the basics salad for $18 and the harvest bowl for $20. They came out in big portions, so it was worth the money. The food was good, and our waitress, Haley, was very courteous. They have indoor and outdoor seating options. Perfect on nice weather days to have options. I would definitely go back.

    FOURTH REVIEW FOR CHICKEN WINGS! OH. EM. GEEEEE!!! Why did no one tell me of this gem beforehand? NOM NOM NOM NOM NOM. 1. Crispiness. a 4/5. I have had crispier but they did have a crunch. (see review of umami bham chicken wings...now that is a 6/5 crunch!) 2. Chicken. 6/5. Bite into the wing and see those loverly juices run! Plump and perfectly cooked chicken. 3. Portion size. These are DEFINITELY larger than your average chicken wings! They are marinated (which you can tell), smoked and then fried. The flavor is intense. And I have not gotten to the sauce yet! 4. DEFINITELY AND FINALLY A BUFFALO-ESQUE HOT SAUCE WITH A KICK! And they do not skimp on the sauce like the previous 3 places I have reviewed (Monday Night Brewing Social Club, A-Train terrible foodtruck and umami). Hallelluiah, I have found my go to place for good chicken wings. Plus, M-F from 3-6, they are 1/2 as well as all other appetizers. Unlike some places, the appetizer menu for happy hour only consists of 2-3 items- not true for Soho Social! All drinks (including calls) are also 1/2 off. The ONLY drinks that are not included for this happy hour deal are the specialty drinks. Also, I ordered a side salad (to feel quasi healthy...) and expected the usual options of "garden or caesar." NOPE! You can order any of the 5 salads that they offer under the "Salads and Bowls" section, just without the protein. And the portion is still a good size. Services was superb. I wanted for nothing and they were jovial, informative and helpful. There is a wonderful patio, street parking and...not sure what else you would want ??? Soho Standard is the main restaurant, from what I gather, and across from the plaza outside of city hall is Soho tacos. Have not tried these other two "Sohos" but now I want to see what they have to offer!

    Queso
    Bella A.

    Soho social is a perfect spot for a casual happy hour moment. Service was quick. We ordered some cheesy shareables. The pimento cheese balls were my personal favorite, but the queso and pimento cheese dip were also delicious. They offer happy hour drinks from 4-6 (excluding their specialty cocktails), and I was able to secure a margarita for $4.50! Will definitely be coming back for happy hours.

    I've been here twice. Each time was a great experience. I always sit at the bar..the bartenders are great! Very friendly and open to indulging my constant chatter. Lol. They serve some great beers on tap as well as wine. Their house red blend is pretty good. I am not a big fan of pimento cheese but their fried pimento cheese balls are fantastic! I tried their grilled steak ceasar salad..very good. Dressing is homemade..steak was cooked well. The crispy parmesan added great flavor. They have a nice outdoor seating area as well. Nice spot.

    Pretzel
    Jalexus H.

    We got to SoHo Social as a party of 10 and they were very kind and accommodating. Even though we got there during happy hour, we were seated pretty quickly. If you're looking for a quiet place to chat, SoHo is not it. At least during happy hour. But if you want great happy hour deals, SoHo is your place. It's lively and loud but service was still great and food was fresh! They have a rotating $1 beer everyday and 1/2 off some drinks and all apps during happy hour. We decided to try the mini dogs, the pretzel, tots, pimento cheese bits, and Cahaba chicken dip. Everything came out quickly and fresh. My personal favorites were the mini dogs and the pretzel. They don't skimp on dipping sauces either. Each appetizer comes with plenty of options to try out. When it comes to happy hour, SoHo is pretty hard to beat.

    Brussel sprouts, salmon tataki, buffalo wings
    Rheall R.

    Overall it was good, ambiance was great but food left something to be desired. The brussel sprouts were super greasy and not alot of flavor. The salmon was good but had way to many sesame seeds. The wings were probably my favorite, however the buffalo sauce wasn't really that spicy. Note the 3 food items and a well cocktial were only $27, so if I lived in the area maybe I'd come back but since I was just in the city fro travel it's unlikely I'll go back if I'm in town again.

    Seared Salmon wedge salad.

    How do you get in touch with a real person there? I've called but it's all recordings. :(

    I just called (205) 423-8080 and they answered.

    Do they have a parking lot? Thanks

    Yes. There's a parking lot attached and public parking underneath.

They have a food truck that I've heard wonderful things about and I ordered the chicken Caesar salad. It was almost like a chopped Caesar salad and it was just the right amount for a small girl dinner. If you like Parmesan cheese, this is a must order as they do not skimp on that! What was really nice however was that you couldn't tell the food was from a food truck. It was great quality and you are able to order from inside the bar and they deliver it to you. That was a great service. I can't quite remember which cocktail I got, but it was very delicious and at one point the server had even given me a new chilled glass so my drink would remain cold as I sipped on it. This is definitely a great date night spot or just a place to grab a drink with friends, definitely a little more upscale as we were there in the evening, so the lights were dim. I won't drop my rating as it's spring time in the South but I remember being cold immediately as I walked in- but that's typical for a lot of places.

Soup changes daily and this day was chickpea and chorizo. Nothing life changing about it but it wasn't bad. We walked into a small, dark, crowded dive bar and ordered amongst several other people after waiting in line shoulder to shoulder with other customers. I say this not to complain (because with a crowd like this on a random weekday, they're obviously doing something right) but to take your kids in car seats (‍) with caution. Crowds in small spaces stress me out and it would have been even worse if we'd had the boys with us. I'd also highly suggest going on a day when you can sit outside. There's very minimal seating inside. They do have a lovely, spacious patio that also feels like a garden with plenty of trees for shade. However, they make it clear they don't want dogs there. Parking was horrific. A narrow street with cars on each side. We barely fit through it. If there wouldn't have been an open spot on it, I'm not sure what the next option is because I didn't see anywhere else and this street only held so many. I would dine here again because the sandwiches were fresh and delicious and they obviously know what they're doing! I was pleasantly surprised that they had prosecco as well. Just heed my few warnings and you'll enjoy as well!

They have multiple seating options; the first floor has booths that can accommodate smaller and large groups. The bar area is very inviting and fun to be able to watch your drinks being made and upstairs offers a more private area. When not seated at the bar they do have someone to come around to make sure you have what you need. The servers are very nice and tend to remember you, which is a great feeling. The menu rotates seasonally, which makes it easier to try new things. My favorite menu item so far has been the cheeseball that was on the menu around Christmas time. It had a great flavor served with crackers the only thing is when we came back after the first of the year it wasn't on the menu anymore. On my most recent visit I had the queso which also had great flavor, served with blue corn tortilla chips. When it comes to the drinks I like how on the menu they let you know how strong it is using toucans. Many of the drinks feature rum, but they do still offer some gin and tequila options. Everything I've had has been good and something I would try again. I would like to note that many of the drinks are fruity and can be somewhat sweet. At Christmas time they even had holiday themed drinkware which I felt was a nice touch. If you are not a drinker, they also have options for mocktails. Which has been great for me the last couple of months. I didn't care for the Phony Negroni, but I think Negroni itself might be an acquired taste

The onion rings had too much breading on them, which I didn't think was possible, but here we are. The part of the breading next to the onion was mushy so that threw off the texture of the whole thing too. The burger was very much like a Whataburger. Even the lettuce smelled the same. I got The Standard and the bun of the burger was a little mushy (similar to Whataburger) and there was not much meat. For an $11 burger, I'm expecting more than a Whataburger. My middle kid likes everything on her burger and isn't picky at all and the loaded kid burger looked impressive but it was about the same as mine. Not awful, but not very good either.
