"Soulé has thrived since moving to a larger space with a liquor license while remaking its original West Town location into the more casual Soule 2 Soule. Lamb chops, jerk wings, and blackened catfish are some of the notable menu items. Soule is also popular among professional athletes, so don’t be surprised if you run into an NBA or WNBA player. Reservations are a must for dining in, but to-go options are also available." - Ashok Selvam
"The original Soulé in West Town had the ability to improve our mood, even on the darkest day of winter. And we’re happy to report that Soulé 2, their location in North Lawndale, has that same Feel Good Factor™. This is partly due to the upbeat atmosphere and friendly servers, but also because the menu of delicious soul food (like shrimp and grits, fried green tomatoes, and peach cobbler) is identical to the original. What’s different is that the space is much larger, and has a full bar." - phaithe norman, adrian kane
"Chicago does not play when it comes to jerk chicken. We have so many great spots that if a restaurant wants to compete, the chicken must be grilled to perfection, and have the right amount of spice. Soule’s jerk chicken wings pass every test. This soul food restaurant in North Lawndale serves Creole-inspired recipes that were passed down to the chef from her mother, and thankfully, now the delicious food is passed down to us." - adrian kane, phaithe norman, john ringor
"If birthdays (or pandemics) tend to bum you out, you should order from Soule. The outstanding soul food here is basically Xanax. And if you don’t cry tears of joy after eating their shrimp and grits, it’s not your birthday because you’re clearly dead inside." - adrian kane
"Soule in West Town has the Feel Good Factor™, and part of that means eating what you want in whatever portion you want. The upbeat atmosphere and delicious soul food (like shrimp and grits, fried green tomatoes, and peach cobbler) will comfort you even if you didn’t get hugged enough as a kid or sat in a wet spot on the train this morning. Be warned that this place is small and gets really busy, so you might need to wait for a table. But just use that time to pick up some wine and beer nearby, since Soule is BYOB." - adrian kane
