Soul Good Fine Food

What an amazing gem! Had the pleasure of visiting this restaurant today and oh my goodness the food was amazing, flavorful, nice and hot, everything taste so good! I ordered the whiting fish and grits, and my guy had the waffles and sausage meal. I will be returning and I suggest if you haven't been to Soul Good Fine Food and you're in Atlanta please go, you won't regret it!!

My first time going!!! I'm not a meat eater so I'm big on how good your sides are. The biscuit is everything ALL BY ITSELF!! THE cashier was welcoming and awesome to us newbies and she knew frequent flyers by name!!! Awesome new breakfast spot!!!......Ms Cookie

I moved to Atlanta in December 2021. This is my favorite soul food place. So far. I've tried the fancy ones and didn't like it. This is a hole in the wall owned by the guy that cooks in the back. The collard greens is excellent. The fried catfish is delicious. I thought the fried whiting and mac was okay. I highly recommend supporting your neighborhood soul food place wherever you may be or closest to.

HIDDEN GEM: Long story short…. You can taste the love in the food. I was driving by headed to my friends house and instantly felt the need for collard greens when I saw the name and realized it was within 5 minutes of my final destination. It might not look like it will be incredible, BUT baby…. It was the BEST meal I had during my ENTIRE stay. I called to confirm hours and the customer service was so great over the phone - we got dressed and immediately headed that way. I ordered the pork chops (which are cooked to order), yellow rice w/a Turkey gravy, greens and sweet corn. My friend got the fried chicken, yellow rice, Mac and cheese, black eyed peas and yams. Both meals come with sweet cornbread too! Of course we both ordered red velvet cakes…. Because, why not?!?!? And I took mine on the plane. I will 100% return when I visit again! Definitely want to try their breakfast too! If you are looking for plentiful options, great flavors and affordable prices - head in there!

It looked good but the quality of the food and the quantity of food and price for the food smh just doesn’t match. Ordered the 4 French toast as the menu say but the 5 frozen French toast stick which the menu doesn’t say anything about. Asked for scrambled eggs and got scrambled wet eggs when stuck my fork in and it’s not cheese. Got chicken tenders for my little one that were fried in fish grease and her face was like yuck. I will never go back nor refer you or anyone else.

My boyfriend and I dined here for breakfast with our youngest child. I ordered the waffle w/ hot links, grits, and scrambled eggs. He ordered the (4pc) french toast, Turkey sausage, scrambled eggs, and grits. Our little one got the chicken strips with fries. The price point for the breakfast that we ordered was around $16 each. Kids menu was reasonable. The chicken strips tasted like fish (I can assume that maybe they use the same grease for fry their chicken and fish in). My boyfriends’ scrambled eggs were definitely runny and he had to order more eggs as a replacement. We were expecting four slices of French toast for his breakfast but we got (5) French toast STICKS instead. Mind you, these are frozen French toast sticks from the frozen section of any grocery store. The grits were bland. My meal was halfway decent. I see great reviews on this place and I can see that it comes from the dinner food that they serve and it’s unfortunate that their breakfast didn’t match. We wanted to try a new place and was disappointed in this one. Sidenote: almost every table in there was dirty and/or had crumbs on them. they should really have someone clean the tables so that guests would be more inclined to dine in.

The food at Soul Good was pretty good! We were visiting from Charlotte and looking for a new place to try (new to us anyway) The shrimp and grits were very flavorful however the wings that came with the 10 wing meal were very small. I was told that there was no upcharge for cheese grits but I noticed afterwards on my receipt that I was charged $1 extra...I specifically asked if it was more...In addition to that, I was supposed to get coleslaw with the chicken meal and it wasn't in the bag. I'm giving it a decent rating because the young man at the front was nice...but..check your receipt. All together I overpaid by about $10!!! What a way to give a tip🤷🏾‍♀️

This is my First time ordering from here, Supporting Black businesses! I ordered Grilled Pork chops through Uber eats, and my food came early! Opened it up and I received FRIED Pork chops smh. Never again . Even the Fried pork chops was Too hard and burnt. Eggs and grits was good. Please check y'all orders before Handing them out.

Great mouth watering food that is fulfilling and has a real soul seasoning feeling in my body, mind and soul

I was picking up an order from TooGoodToGo here. I have never known about this restaurant and I'm glad I found them. The inside is very dated and doesn't look the cleanest, but the cashier was so nice and patient. Your food is cooked to order so you will wait at least ten minutes for it to be ready. The prices are comparable to other restaurants. I did order a second meal and paid $17 for a plate of friend chicken, Mac n cheese, and dressing. They also served drinks and desserts. I would call this restaurant a hole in the wall and with that, I don't expect the furniture and/or decor to be modern. Quite a few people came in while I was waiting and they all seemed very familiar with the restaurant and the staff. It was like a family spot. I would come back because I enjoyed my food and the service was amazing.

* For context, I used the Too Good To Go App to order surprise deal. Food: It was OK. I received yellow rice and grill pork chop for the "surprise meal deal". Let me say, the food was very diabetic friendly. The rice nor the pork chops had any seasoning, which left a bland taste to the food. Now, I was expecting the food to be favorable as the pork chop seem to look well seasoned however I was disappointed. Service: the cashier was very friendly as soon as I provided her the code needed for my order pick up. She immediately provided it to the kitchen staff, and they prepared my food quickly. I was in and out and no more than five minutes. Ambiance: it's an older restaurant, or appears to be so the ambience is very dated. It's pretty much just covered seating ( cause I'm sure the benches are worn) , a TV and that's it. Me, personally, I would only use this restaurant as a to go option and not necessarily a sitdown and dining experience. Overall: - I'm giving one star for the food and an additional star because the customer service was good. I don't expect to go back to this restaurant, however, other reviews has stated other menu options are great so try it out for yourself and let me know what you think!

It was amazing good portion tasty menu I like the Beef Tips on white rice smothered in gravy with Mac and cheese and a good helping of Collard Greens .

This was my first experience. The food was good and seasoned well. Soul Good Fine Food tastes like your down home southern cooking. Their French toast is amazing. Perfectly crusted yet soft in the middle. Bacon cooked to perfection, and the cheese eggs are perfectly scrambled soft. I can tell they've built a local loyal customer fan base with regulars and daily peak time rushes. The only problem I had was with the man with the lock behind the counter who was not very welcoming.

The service was amazing if it wasn't for the cashier I would never want to go back she's a honest sister. I spent $87 on our food my kids loved there fried chicken and fries I got baked cat fish with cheese eggs, an grits the fish saved the meal if it wasn't for the fish it would've been a bland meal. I got corn bread which was horrendous the pinto beans which were salty and the Mac and cheese would've had a chance if it was baked more. It's not hard to please kids but my taste buds are different an yes they are handicap accessible. As far as the ambiance it was clean but plain the owner needs a visit from Gordon Ramsay and no I'm not being funny I'm being serious if it wasn't for that young lady at the front counter the cashier I probably would have gave this place a 3 so my experience was really a five just because of that young lady I gave you a 4 my food I really said it was horrible

I have safety concerns & the food was NOT anything on the menu. As my 1st time, utilizing this service app...I was left disappointed & still desiring soul food as this was a waste of money, time driven across town and waste of my premium gas! 1. Restaurant was like no other local neighborhood restaurant I had been too...it was extremely dirty 2. Seats were extremely dirty & stained soiled as if they have NEVER cleaned the seats since they been in business. 3. Floor & tables were not cleaned 4. There was a few plastic dessert containers of cut cubed watermelon in a medium ice-chest on the floor; on top of the soda cans & 4oz water bottles. I felt the watermelon should have been stored in the fridge especially since the ice-chest was open. 5. Food was NOT anything on the menu. (I received mini-sausages on top of rice; sample size of potato salad & corn. None of these items went together & the lady went to back to make my plate. Out of all the soul food offered...the only thing I received a scope of was the corn. I was shocked that the food actually looked good for such an unclean establishment & I left this business desiring soul-food. How do you make soul food yet, be apart of this program and NOT give patrons the opportunity to try the food that you see in the food trays & being sold in the front. 6. Lastly, I only noticed 2 employees which where OUTSIDE on corner-side of the building when I pulled up. A lady went inside and behind the counter...which I had spoke to as I entered and started to tell her I was there to pick up as she bend over to write an order. As I opened my phone app...I'm telling her I'm there for GoodToGo...she starts talking but, that's when I realize she was actually taking an order over the phone but, still had NOT acknowledged me. I did not take her a friendly nor professional due to this unwarranted unfriendly demeanor. I still wanted soul food afterwards!!!!! I ended up given this plate to a homeless woman, I seen who sleeps at a bus stop.

Unfortunately there aren't many positives on the plate I received. The greens were overly salted, the mac and cheese was lacking in flavor, the rice was what I would assume is instant rice and super oily, and lastly the meatloaf was okay. The oiliness of everything is a massive turnoff.

We ordered two separated breakfast plates. One was a basic breakfast plate (eggs, biscuit, grits, and sausage). The other was a shrimp and grits with eggs, sausage, and a biscuit. And a waffle on the side. Let's just say nasty. Grits had no flavor and the worst texture. Biscuits were like play dough. Waffle was not good at all. Shrimp were clearly frozen and not cleaned properly. They smelled the entire room up. The best thing we had were the drinks because they were canned and premade.

The catfish is still GOOD.... But they're inconsistent. My previous review, I wrote that you get two filets. Today I received skinny strips... When I asked them about it they said sometimes it's two filets, other times it's three strips... just depending on how they prep the fish for the day because they cut it in half. What? Choose one and stick with it because that's not amount of fish. If that's the case that would be four strips. To make it worse, While waiting I heard the guy bagging it ask the cashier if she wanted the extra fish cause he just needed an order. Only to realize that wasn't really "extra fish." It was the missing half that should have been on my plate (making it two full filets, especially if they've made it). It's the principle. The Mac and cheese was also super dry today. Actually, it seemed to be mostly over cooked noodles and hardly any cheese. I had to come home and doctor it up... add my own cheese. Disappointed..... I knew I was going to be over that way, and had been looking forward to this plate all week! :(

This place in a GEM in the neighborhood. The food is delicious establishment is immaculate. Kirkwood owns Cliff has food for the soul. I will be back!! AUC students can get a Sunday dinner everyday.

First of all, as Hebrew Israelites, from the Holy Land from where we were extracted, there are certain foods we shouldn't touch (the PIG and Bottom Feeders such as Catfish) because the workers of Iniquity stole every damn thing from our ancestors -- it has caused us to SIN even when we have no idea. But, for those who go to church you are not taught these things. The main scripture is tithing!!! Like we just saw Marvin Sapp do a full court press on his congregation. In saying this, at least have the food taste good -- based on the reviews, you all are not doing a good job. Biblically speaking, you're serving the wrong food. There is really good food that can be served that is not pork or bottom feeders and delicious. I suggest you revamp your menu selection.

Very welcoming atmosphere and great customer service. I intended on trying the catfish dinner, but the turkey wings looked good so I went with that, green beans and yams with catfish on the side. I was underwhelmed by the food. The turkey wings needed more flavor, the rice was tasteless, the catfish tasted like rubber, and the yams were okay. The green beans was the best food on my plate.

IDK how to explain it! Ive never had a soul food spot not have good tasting food. I wrestled with leaving this review b/c I am not here to take away from a black owned business. But I feel compelled to express the general disappointment. A few months ago, I walked into the stash and was looking to order, but my questions about the food we're not welcomed obviously because of the nonverbal cues that suggest I should know the answer to my own questions. I decided to shave my mind and go to another place that I know I would receive a welcome face and grateful! This time around I decided to try again. The service was not half bad, but it wasn't exceptional. And then when I got my food, there was no taste. Food looks good.but no flavor. sorry! I just had to share this! $15 down the drain.

Want fried fish for my mom. Stumbled across this restsurant on Yelp. Now I'm thinking to myself this place wasn't here last year or before. But after some thought decided to drive to the west side (northwest) to give it a try. They had some business (people) on a Sunday afternoon, 8/7/22. Well I guess we'll go in and check it out. Not too big and not too small of a space. Enough space to sit down, but you can definitely get your food to go. Food: ordered 3 plates 1. Fried tilapia over yellow rice, yams and corn. 2. Turkey wing over yellow rice w/gravy, green beans and cabbage. 3. Turkey Salisbury over dressing with gravy, collard greens and cabbage. 1 sweet tea. 1 almond palmer (the lemonade is not "homemade")--- It's made at home alright. Tasted powdered. But I drank it anyway. Lol 1 can drink ($1.00 you pick out the cooler) yes, a cooler that you take when you go to the park or you hosting bbq at home. Yeah. that one. #3 was my plate. I sampled what wasn't on mine. Yellow rice plain. Nope. No flavor tasted faucet water. Green Beans were dumped out the can. Corn kernels they tried to fix up. I think they were left overs. Yams canned. Yellow rice with turkey gravy doable. Cabbage a little oily but good. Collard greens with smoked turkey and pepper was shockingly good. I can't give an opinion on turkey wing since I didn't taste it. I don't really care for tilapia so I didn't taste. But that Turkey Salisbury is a no! DON'T. Nice size portion but DON'T. Now the cornbread dressing confused me...yellow sweet cornbread. It was not dry, not mushy. I wanted extra gravy on mine...maybe I'll order again with a different meat? Location: Well if you're truly from Atlanta and know some of the original street names it's at the corner of Simpson & Ashby. If you're post 2000 it's Boone & Lowery Blvd. If you're into the Gentrification era West Midtown (but don't be fooled by this description you're in the 'hood). Parking. Small private lot. About 7 cars spaces. You can make your own spot like I did. Two others made it work too. Pricing... well that depends on your budget and its subjective. I about had a heart attack when she said $59.xx. I had it. But obviously I didn't pay attention to the menu price or my math was not mathing. Ask for your receipt...because I didn't and I'm still baffled. But I will say the portion size is great. Enough to get two meals out of plate 1 & 3. I'll return to try breakfast one day. Maybe 4th quarter (October or November) I'll see if I want to try Sunday dinner again because I'm not convinced I want to spend $60 often here. But go support and let the rest of us know what you think.

No, you just cannot trust not seeing how your food is cooked nowadays. We have to know by a merchants trust and commitment to health that our interest is at best. The food here was like anywhere else. Wrapped tight in a bag before you see what you are getting. I purchased salmon and grits and to be honest I was not impressed. They tasted like the local person did on Evans Mill Rd in Lithonia - has our votes been vetoed to be subject to GMO ingredients on most menus that honor profit over true health? How did we lose this choice? The ones that keep you coming back for more are hard to find in our black owned establishments or they come with a cost! I'm just saying that while this restaurant is in a great location for the history of the area. The choices we pay for should be the reason why we keep coming back. I would not plan on coming back but encourage others to try and review.

Nice people and great food, especially their juicy fried chicken. We got here late in the morning on a Friday, and the place wasn't too packed. The ribs were smothered and tender, though, and the service was kind. Not a big fan of their rice here, but the wings, chicken, and ribs we had were fantastic. The interior is pretty small, but they've got several booths for folks who want to hang out. I see most people tend to get takeout though. I'll be back if I'm ever in the area. Prices are decent for big plates with a serving of meat, rice, and two sides.

Came in Saturday night around midnight. Ordered fried whiting, grits, scrambled eggs, home fries, a biscuit & lemonade. ($20) There was only one man working the front & one cook in the back. I probably only waited abt 20 mins which for only having two ppl working + online delivery orders coming in I felt was reasonable. The fish was perfectly seasoned, sliced thin & a lot of crunch. They also cut it into nice sized pieces. The eggs & grits were fine. Cooked so you can add your own level of salt and pepper. The potatoes are cooked with peppers & honestly stole the show. Super flavorful. You have a choice btwn toast and a biscuit- you HAVE to get the biscuit. Fluffy, dense and lots of butter- didn't even make it home. Just a classic down home spot, truly delivered exactly what I was craving. Good service, huge selection & reasonable pricing. excited to try some of their dinner menu.

I gotta try a few more spots in the city, but right now this one of my go to Soul Food spots! Good service, & smooth buffet line.. some foods are cooked to order!

Laid back place for breakfast, lunch and dinner. They have a few outdoor seats as well as bench seating on the inside. I tried them off the too good to go app so didn't expect much. The customer service was pretty good, i was greeted promptly and the cashier advised itbwould be a 10 min wait. The meal i received consisted of 2 chicken thighs with tots. The tots were crispy and yummy. The chicken thighs, while kind of tasty were really greasy. Especially for them not to be fried.They have soul food on the weekends and based off customers in the store at the time I'd be willing to give the soul food a try.

HORRIBLE! DISGUSTING!! What is unfortunate is that we tried this on a whim. We went in there and everyone behind the counter was busy at nothing! Working hard at doing nothing. They weren't nasty towards us, but nobody was cooking there was no fresh food out. At one point one of the ladies said "hold on she gonna whip something up real quick". This is because we ordered a surprise bag online! So we got excited! We also ordered something off the "hot food line". Where it was a Where's Waldo event to even guess which entree option had been remixed since last week! When we got to our home. The green beans tasted like they poured a whole bowl of sugar in them to take the old taste out of them. The peas were out the can, the cabbage was oily, the baked chicken had to have been at least a week old because it was as hard as bricks! The cornbread was jiffy with some type of dollar store honey put on it ( or some other sticky substance). Let's not even talk about the fried pigeons that they are selling as whole chicken wings. Never again!

Food was delicious. Restaurant was clean and staff was polite. They have a nice selection of food to choose from and homemade cake

Came here last week with my friend from Seattle and I'm back again this week. There's a gringo menu and a soul food menu so be sure to ask for the soul food menu if they don't know you. It's a small neighborhood place in which the customers are loyal. I met Cliff, the owner, who seems like a really good guy. He says if you don't like the food you don't pay for the food.

They have a lot of options on the menu. The food looks GREAT but the food is tasteless. I ordered the pigs feet and neck bone dinner with Mac n cheese and they NEEDED SEASONING. It wasn't horrible it just didn't have enough flavor. The cornbread just taste like cornbread with no flavor. Their servers were very nice and had great customer service.

I got a "surprise bag" from this store from the Too Good To Go app. This "$18 value" bag was terrible. I got fried chicken, homemade potato chips, and some type of fried vegetable that I couldn't identify. The fried chicken was obviously old and refried. Parts of the chicken were GREEN under the crust. I tossed all of it out. NEVER AGAIN.

The food was nasty and overpriced... For breakfast I had an quits, eggs, and Salmon patties.. NAF.... I will stick with GutBusters. My fav..

The customer service was good. The young lady was pleasant and patient. However, when I received my order, it was not what I anticipated. I received a sample size of potato salad and coleslaw, while the pork chops were fried okay but very bland in taste. On the other hand, the onion rings were good.

I was looking forward to eating here, I ordered a veggie plate the greens were underseasoned they tasted like nothing. The macaroni was nothing but cheese and the yams were pure sugar. Didn't meet my expectations never returning

No restaurants open or dining in on the first day of new year. Thank goodness, we came across this place and we're amazed by the food. My husband felt the collard green is better than Mary macs. And the green bean tasted more flavored. The waitress are very friendly maybe we are apparently tourists. Recommend this place.

This mom & pop joint is everything. My family & I were visiting for spring break and wanted good ole southern soul food when we landed. I did my usually search an this GEM showed up. Not only is the food slamming, the customer service is too flight, & baby they stay open late. IT WAS A WIN WIN WIN SITUATION for us. We're thinking snot doubling back before we leave. Thank you SOUL GOOD for the hospitality and bomb FOOD

10/10 recommend. Food is amazing, staff is friendly, owner is super sweet. Come thru and support!

Good is great and fresh. The workers are amazing and attentive. Anything you order here is good honestly

I was trying the app Food To Go and expected dinner or at least lunch however I received sausage and grits. I almost didn't stop because the restaurant front wasn't appealing but thought give it a try! I hope others have had a better experience but I will not try this restaurant again.

This food was great, I enjoyed everything except for the mac and cheese... Amazing customer service tho, I definitely will be back

The food was delicious as my kids would say it was fire. I had grits eggs and salmon patty. The service was more than hospitality. We spoke to owner cliff he made you feel at home. The ambiance was very clean. We are going back a 2 time before leaving town. Good southern soul food!

I should have took photos of my turkey and pig feet dinner. First time here, smell when you walk in the door is awesome. I want to taste it all, the people behind the counter was polite. My mom is picky eater but she ate a lot of her food so thumbs up. Can't wait to go back try something different.

A friend of mine went to this restaurant and suggested I try it. Trying to support our Black Business, I went Saturday August 6th at 8:30pm because the website stated it was open until 11pm. Not true... Once I got there, there was a note with the new hours indicating it closed at 8pm. AGAIN, trying to support our black business, I want back Sunday, August 7th and order TWO meals. The wait was over 30 minutes for several customers so I asked the THE YOUNG LADY WITH THE NOSE PIERCING WORKING THE REGISTER if she knew how much longer it would be before my food was reading. Without checking, she looks over her shoulder and said I think that's it. I asked if she could check? Her response to me was "I'm doing something" as she stood wiping a spot on the counter and purposely continued to wipe the same spot for at least an additional minute. In that moment, I knew I would not be back. I've not even tasted my food and am giving this restaurant a 1 star. I don't care what the food taste like, Lil Mama with the nose piercing and nasty attitude sealed the deal for me. I'm a first time customer, purchasing 2 meals, and I'm served ATTITUDE. THIS IS WHY BLACK BUSINESSES ARE NOT SUPPORTED BY OUR OWN RACE! Being a black patron, I still expect good customer service! The customer service ruined the experience.

This is my ONLY go to place when I don't feel like cooking. Soul Good is amazing, the food is always on point, and the service is awesome. I definitely recommend Soul Good if you have a taste for some amazing soul food.

First, I would like to say I tried!!! I've literally went to this place three days in a row because I'm a believer in supporting black business and I wanted soul food however the customer service is one of the worse I've ever experienced. First time going for the round 9pm and was told they only have soul food on Friday-Sunday which is kool. So tried to go the follow Friday and was told they stop serving soul food at 8pm after being told the day before they serves soul food all day on Fri. After wasting my time twice I tried to give them another chance and call before I drive up to the restaurant (it that's what we calling it at this point) and dude that answer the phone was rude!!! I was just trying to be clear on what is being sold. On top of the he said they close at 8pm after I've been told they are 24hrs. Owner!! If you come cross this msg please speak and retrain you staff customer is important on top of wasting ppls time. I'm one customer that will never be back but wish wishes if things are turned around.

warning warning if you love your kids do not go to soul good its in the middle of the getto the bluff & have the most worst customer service ive ever experienced!! they are in the bluff decent people dont go to the getto for breakfast we go to buckhead, where we are guaranteed a good atmosphere good clean breakfast & excellent customer service!!! i only went there to support a blk owned business & i knew cliff the owner when he was just opening up when he was asking me out trying to date me. now he has new dentures in his mouth & forget who was supporting him in the beginning and cursed me out because i wanted to pay extra money for salmon that was already ready at 6:30am saying its not available until 11am so you mean to tell me that youre making fish thats not for sale to sit out from 5am to 11am or longer until every one buys it out??? well guess whos getting a visit from code enforcement and the department of health!!! wow to support someone for so long to have them forget the code of great customer service is disturbing!!! i referred my whole team of co workers there and they began to go and too experienced bad service. one ordered food along with peach cobbler and they forgot to give him the peach cobbler so he sent his girlfriend up there to get it or his money back & although they agreed, once she got up there they refused to give it to her!!! now my coworkers are refusing to ever go there. dont come up off of drug addicts money in the hood & forget where you started!!! maybe thats why he sees nothing wrong with cursing regular customers out stealing food or money from us and cooking food at 5am and allowing it to sit out for 6 hours or more!! spend your money wisely at a better establishment!!!
