Not only…read moreis their food flavoring completely off, also my opinion is, they do not operate from a place of integrity! To me, that's a big No, No. I would highly recommend Macarthurs or 6978 soul food restaurants instead. Delicious food, and the restaurants appreciate their patrons. Back story to my review of Priscilla's. Long story short, I am an African American woman, he was born and raised in Chicago westside. A couple years ago I relocated to another state, for work purposes. However, my family and friends are all in Chicago. I do return home to Chicago possibly 2-3x a year. When doing so, I try my best to spend my black dollars with black establishments. Priscilla's is one of those restaurants. I have property there in the west suburb close by. The 1st Sunday of August, I happened to be in town. I had my daughter to go and pick up a couple plates. I wanted some soul food. In preparation of this, she used Priscilla's website to directly order from them. This website even gave an estimated time the order would be ready! Boom! She headed out to pick up our merch. Why did she have to stand and wait in the restaurant for nearly a hour & a half for her order to be given to her. When she got home with the plates, why was the chicken Ice Box cold, with warm gravy poured on top. Everything that was paid for was a disaster!!! I've had issues with them before, and they resolved it, so I didn't think much of it. Although I was hungry, I gave them a call and left a voice mail. It's been two weeks, I'm still waiting on a call back from them. The utter disrespect of not even speaking with me. I even called a couple days later... Basically, I am going to file a complaint. It's not the money for me, it's the disrespect that has me offended. I'm now back out of town, over 2,000 miles away. They could have even offered credits for my daughter or a refund! Nothing!!! There's a saying, sometimes it's your own kind that will do you the dirtiest. Honestly as I think back on this. 1st Sunday is normally crowded at all restaurants in the black community. I think they may have run out of food, specifically chicken. If that was the case, just say that. Don't send me chicken that was in the back of the fridge from 3 days ago. Disgusting behavior. My money spends everywhere, but never again in this outdated dump! Believe me, I will file a couple of complaints. Even if I never get a red penny back, I want to alert customers, beware. Also check the temp of your food before exiting the place.

My total was just over $30, which is absurd; particularly since the ribs were on the tougher side - almost as if they were reheated.

While in Orland Park, I remembered Soul Vibez. Stopped in for lunch before heading home. Ordered…read moretheir soul rolls, catfish, collard greens, and candied sweet potatoes. The soul rolls are some of the best. I appreciate that they did not put a dusting of powdered sugar on them, although they did have a sugar dipping sauce on the side. The fried catfish was divine. The crust was out of this world. My hat goes off for the collard greens that were seasoned nicely and the sweet potatoes that weren't overly sugary. I noticed they stopped putting in-house dining meals in to-go containers. The sides were in small containers, but hot food in the clear plastic containers before used to make dining in-house feel rushed. They really stepped up their game.

Everything but the "canned " sweet potatoes was extremely salty--and I like salt. 2 big fillet pieces but again the coating was overly salty. Also ordered a side of the fried green tomatoes, mush. Again very heavy on the salt. The tomatoes tasted strongly of vinegar and were like mush with the breading , again salty, falling off. There was a small container of what I assumed to be their version of remoulade sauce which was runny and sweet. This was a pickup order that cost me $104.88‼‼ Fried Green Tomatoes were inedible. NEVER AGAIN UPDATE: I CONTACTED THE MANAGER WITH A LETTER DESCRIBING THE PROBLEM AND PROMPTLY RECEIVED A FULL REFUND ALONG WITH A $25 CREDIT THAT CAN BE USED ON FUTURE PURCHASES

I loved the hints gold and the dark teal(?) wallpaper

We all ordered the Grand Tasting, which lets you try three entrees plus a beverage. It was so much food but everything was delicious. I had the short rib, fried chicken, and catfish, each with different sides. The only thing I did not really care for was the dressing. They also had live entertainment, which made the vibe even better. Customer service was just okay, but I would still recommend it. I definitely want to try their other location since I have heard the menu is different.

This week, my organization ordered catering from Soul & Smoke for a staff event, and it exceeded…read moreour expectations! Right from the beginning, Sarah, a team member at Soul & Smoke, was very communicative and responded quickly to our inquiries. She provided excellent food recommendations regarding the number of people attending the event and detailed the food items that would be safe for our staff members with dietary restrictions or allergies. One feature we particularly appreciated was the inclusion of food tent cards, which outlined the ingredients in each dish and highlighted any allergens or dietary restrictions. This thoughtful detail made it easier for everyone to choose safely, and it's something we've never experienced with a catering service before! The delivery was on time, and they kept us updated with a delivery tracker, which was very helpful! The delivery driver assisted us in loading the catering onto a cart and was polite. Most importantly, the quality and freshness of the food were outstanding! A few standout items included the pulled pork, pulled chicken, mac & cheese, green beans, and their new dessert, peach cobbler! Our staff absolutely loved the food. Here are a couple of comments from them: - "I think Soul & Smoke may be my new favorite restaurant!" - "I think this lunch was great! I'm also happy we were able to support a local business." We are thrilled that we were able to support this local business!

We also ordered the Sides Sampler that includes Mac & Cheese, Red Beans & Rice, Collard Greens, Apple Slaw, and Cornbread Muffin.

I observed people leaving table groups and more people coming to the table to join the group. This experience was definitely better than my first time at their original location. My catfish and grits were delicious. Those grits were perfect as they were creamy and thicker. The catfish cooked perfectly and great size filets. The fried green tomatoes were a hit. Not overly breaded and a great flavor. The drinks were also good which had never changed. I believe it may have been a day where happy hour was the whole day so it appeared that the table drinks weren't being considered in a timely fashion compared to bar orders. I think I waited about an hour for my second drink. The waiter was kind, apologetic, and continued to check in along the way. He even showed us when he placed the order so we wouldn't think he was lying. The peach cobbler was also good but very sweet and peach heavy. I like peach cobbler but prefer the crust and just a little peach juice. There was a live DJ which played really good music. Definitely a vibe place with good options.
