People of Irving, Texas, and the surrounding Irving metroplex, if you haven't yet eaten at the finest soul food eatery in Irving, you are behind the culinary times. The staff, from the front door to the chef and two of the three triplets, my wife and I had a marvelous dining experience. It was our first time there, Saturday, June 27, 2026. I had rib tips, mashed potatoes, and broccoli rice. My wife had Mini brisket and mac and cheese. Out of this world! The food was well-seasoned and well-done. Our plans include a future return to Soulful Street Bites. We brought some home for the night. Make it your business to hurry on over and enjoy the wonderful foods offered. We hope to see you there.

My first time visiting this location in Irving. We arrived around 5pm on a Thursday. Service: The customer service was good, the restaurant was clean, but the music was way too loud in my opinion. Food: The cabbage was seasoned, but overcooked & brown in color, the broccoli rice cheese casserole was absolutely terrible. (No, flavor, no broccoli, no cheese and it looked like potato salad) just terrible. The fried chicken wings and catfish wasn't too bad. I was so disappointed. read more

We wanted to tried this location for a different experience and it didn't disappoint. The customer service was better . The music was good and wasn't loud. We tried the fried shrimp basket, catfish basket, broccoli and rice, bake beans and mac &cheese. Everything was good. The sweet tea was a little too sweet so we had to water it down. It's limited seating and parking . I would definitely return to try a different item. read more

Came through Irving, Texas. I wanted some soul food, and I found this spot. We got our food to go, but you can sit down and eat. The service was really good. The lady at the front counter, she was funny and really nice and they got our food out really fast. My husband got the Yams. The yams were perfectly sweet, tender, and full of homemade flavor. We both ordered the crawfish. The crawfish étouffée was rich, creamy, and packed with seasoned crawfish that melted in every bite. The combination of comforting soul food and authentic Cajun flavors was absolutely delicious. Every dish tasted fresh, well-seasoned, and made with care. If you're looking for food that feeds both your appetite and your soul, this is definitely a place worth visiting. I can't wait to come back and try more from the menu! read more

I have been WAITING on this place to open back up (some hooligan broke in). If I could give a 10 I would! Everything was not only seasoned but cooked to perfection. There wasn't a bad thing eaten and the staff was so helpful. I had to take mine to go but the area is designed nicely ( not a fan of red though, lol). Please support them if you're in the area. You can tell it's made with love. read more

I'm knocking off a star because they didn't have potato salad but it was on the menu. Other than that . Food was really good and not salty . Nice vibe and the service was great. Everyone was friendly read more

Update. Today's meal wasn't the same. I can say that I'm a regular but something or someone changed today. The flavor was off especially on the regular items we usually get. Just FYI read more

I am glad Soulful Street Bites has a location in my neighborhood. I ordered the smothered pork chop plate with mashed potatoes and southern greens, to-go. I believe the special for the day was oxtails. However there was a sign that they were sold out by the time I arrived early evening...fair enough. I can't wait to return to try more of the side dishes with my next plate. The mashed potatoes and southern greens have won me over. read more

Presentation Quantity Taste (2.5 rounded to 3) Service Price Overall Heard a lot about Soulful Street Bites and decided to try the Las Colinas location. The food looked very good and fresh. You definitely get your money's worth. The sides were on point. The downsides: 1) While the rib tips were cooked well they were way too salty. Felt like I needed to take BP meds after a few bites. 2) The oxtails were also cooked well, very tender, however they were missing seasoning. It was like the only thing used was a hint of salt. I'm glad they weren't salty but where was the other seasoning? Onion powder, garlic powder and a little bouillon would have made a big difference. Will I go back? Yes, but I'll try something different. I may even go to the Addison location to see if the experience is the same. read more

Soul Food Bite really surprised me--in the best way. The service was warm, and the food was incredible. The oxtail bowl was packed with flavor and big enough to feed a small army. And the mac and cheese? Ooh sooo good. While it's a small, non-traditional dine-in spot, the food hits every mark. Easily one of the best soul food places when it comes to true quality and flavor. read more

By far some of the best soul food I've eaten in awhile . I've been to this location on two occasions and everything I've had was superb. This location is a nice size with booths for seating. Subtle R&B playing in the background gives this a nice touch before you get stuffed. The portions bolster in size and the quality matches quantity . Customer service is helpful here and gave me some helpful information regarding the menu. I've been to the other location in Addison and I would only recommend this particular location only. Catfish nuggets are seasoned well and tasted fresh. Hush puppies and fried okra are some great additions to the meals. Broccoli cheddar rice has nice consistency and was flavorful . Peach cobbler I would give 7.7/10 but wouldn't mind trying again. Lemonades are a nice thirst quencher to down all this good food . Prices are decent. Overall very satisfied with Soulful Street Bites in Irving. Please check this place out . read more

I'm the Queen of supporting minority owned and independently owned businesses. I do it with intention. I've heard a lot about this place so we tried it. I was not impressed. The customer service was great. But the food was severely lacking, The quantities are good, but the soul was just not in it. The catfish did t have any flavor. It looked good but tasted bland. The smothered pork chop tasted like it was smothered in packaged gravy. The greens tasted sweet and tasted canned. I'm a soul food guru and an excellent soul food home cook-from scratch. This was a let down for me read more

The Hostess is very pleasant, the cabbage greens we good but to spicy for me, I he mashed potatoes and brown gravy was good they used fresh potatoes. They had mustard potato salad had a tad to much mustard, would have liked some onion and eggs on there. You can tell food was heated was cool in middle, over all it was done and all edible. Not really a waitress but they will bring out your food. The atmosphere and s nice. My friend had meatloaf, mashed potatoes potato and okra, she just said it was ok. And the lady did just come back and ask if we are ok. I think it's family owned and they are still getting their feet wet, not sure. Oh and they give military discount. They are very busy so I'm sure it's just our old taste buds lol enjoy read more

I'm not sure why it says "closed today" on Yelp. I went there earlier today and placed an order shortly after it opened at 1230. There were already a couple of people in line and a couple of people waiting on their order. Anywho, I got the soul bowl with fried ribs (my main reason for going) along with mac and cheese, collard greens and yams. Everything was delish. If you don't like your food touching, you may want to pass on the soul bowl and order separately. To my left, I saw that the special was oxtails over rice. I got that too because why not? I have to eat tomorrow, don't I? It came with a side. I was told the black eyed peas were only sold on Sundays, so I went with the cabbage. Let's just say when it was all said and done, I was fluffy full. SSB, please get on the delivery apps. Your customers would greatly appreciate it. The option to online order would be the icing on the cake. read more

I absolutely loved this place! Service was amazing, food great too. My family and I celebrated my early birthday there and I was given a slice of pound cake and the staff gave me a shout out! Thanks for allowing us to enjoy such a special event in my life. Blessings to all of you! read more

I'm a Mississippi girl, so I had to come support a Mississippi‑owned business -- and I'm so glad I did. The moment I walked in, the restaurant smelled like home. The fried ribs were very good , crispy and well seasoned. The mac and cheese was rich, creamy, and a good cheese pull. The collard greens tasted like they came straight out of a Southern kitchen, and the yams were sweet, buttery, and cooked well. If you're craving real soul food that hits every note just right, Soulful Bites is the place. I'll definitely be back! read more

This place is great every side I've tried I've liked! It isn't cheap but it is worth it.

First time going and order the chicken and dressing, a side of greens (were ok), orka (was very salty), and black eyes peas(not good). I wouldn't recommend this place or the chicken and dressing. That's my opinion read more

We came to get food at 4:25 pm and was locked out and turned around. Bad service and we advise others not to eat there if you are expecting to get food on Sunday at 4:25pm! Really sad ! read more

The customer service was great. The food was pretty good. I got a slice of cake and it was pretty dry was in my feelings about that cause they recommended it and said it was good. For $7 it should have been moist and not dry. read more

Excellent soul food and great chill spot. The service is quick too, even during the lunch hour. I definitely will go back.

Banana pudding was fantastic. Smothered Pork chop, elite!!! Great food. Ox tail was perfect. Flavorful ribs! Not too saucy.

All of the employees are kind and knowledgeable about all of the food items that are cooked. I got a bowl that was remarkably good and the vegetables were amazing as well. The dessert I got was a banana pudding and this was the perfect way to end the meal. This is a beautiful company with wonderful employees as well. read more

Ordered a veggie plate for $15.00 plus tip and the quantity was so small literally ate each side in 4 bites. Everything is not bigger in Texas . The portions for the veggie are so small my kid was still hungry . Waste of money read more

Tried the burnt ends Mac and cheese and I wish I could say something bad about it but I can't. It's too dang good and it hits the spot. Don't think it's overpriced food because it's not. You get your moneys worth here and they do it right. Great service. Delicious bbq hands down. 10/10 would def recommend read more

First of all the Staff is welcoming. I was at the Irving location. The food was very disappointing to us. We had heard and saw the bowls, yet they are only available certain days. I wanted so bad for the food to be good since it is black owned. Yet the Sunday special was not ready even an hour after opening. The chicken wings were fried perfectly yet they did not have any flavor. We came but I will not be returning. They are understaffed the cook came to the register I know four times to help cashier, but she was wearing her gloves and working the register. Maybe a year from now but the food does not match the price. I can't see myself paying for something that left my group not satisfied. read more
