There was a security guard checking IDs, but it also made me feel safer parking there, so no complaints. The lounge itself is pretty spacious, with mostly sectional seating that can fit at least 8 people--definitely great for groups. I went on a Friday night around 11 p.m., and the crowd was just right. It wasn't overly packed or rowdy, but people were still having fun, and the music was really good. My friends and I had already eaten, so we just ordered hookah, which was only $25--super reasonable, and it was decent quality. The server came around to check on us every so often, which was nice. I think the lady who checked us out was Meron, and she was cool and efficient. Overall, great place for hookah, music, and a chill vibe. I'd definitely come back to try their drinks and maybe check out the food next time!

Came pretty early on a Thursday night. Early, you hear me. Lol Music is good. Not the kind of DJ…read morethat mixes the music but still a vibe as the theme was The Carters. We start out as the only people here. Place an order. The receipt comes to the table before the food. Hmm. That's different. We wait, for what we thought would be the food. Not the case. The waitress comes back to ask if we're ready to pay. I know you lying! Never have I ever patronized a prepay restaurant/lounge. I'm truly dumbfounded. How does one pay a tab before the food comes. But don't worry, tip wasn't a concern because you better believe they charge a 20% gratuity to EVERY party. "A 20% tip for walking to the table. No food, no water. Nothing but the bill." Zero lies told. Service was very reflective of the fact that the tab was paid before our food arrived. Rasta Pasta is what I wanted to order. Unfortunately this traditionally vegan dish has dairy in the spicy jerk Alfredo sauce. I ordered the 3 side options: rice, French fries and green beans. The food came out in to go containers. Can't lie, my food was tasty! Had no clue what the rice would be because there wasn't a description. Rice was definitely my favorite. Cooked to perfection and the seasonings were delightful. Because of the consistency, the rice was directly on aluminum foil inside of the container. Green beans were fresh and seasoned really well. Most people don't give much attention to sides, but the chef did an amazing job! Fries were good too! Love ordered Josephine Sliders with fried salmon. Came with fries and he said his food was really good. A slight hesitation ordering salmon, but was glad he did. As the night went on, there were a few times where the DJ got some mixes in. Majority of the time she was playing back to back songs. Either way, I'm a fan because there selection of music was on point. Super chill vibe. Hookah is available if you like. Overall: DJ was great. Food was fantastic. Customer Service is severely lacking and very so reflected the fact that we had to prepay. Love's final statement: "We can come pick up food, but ain't staying in here." Lol.

The suya was absolutely on point--perfectly seasoned with that authentic spicy, smoky flavor that hits exactly how it should. You can tell they respect the roots of the cuisine. The atmosphere brings everything together. The Afrobeat music flowing through the room creates an energy that makes the whole place feel alive. It's one of those spots where you're not just eating--you're experiencing the culture. Great food, great music, and a vibe that feels warm and soulful. If you're in Atlanta and want a place that blends African flavor with a lively Afrobeat atmosphere, the Red Room at Mr. Soul is definitely worth the visit.

I feel like they need to upgrade their fries vendor. They tasted old and I was underwhelmed. There's better quality fries in this industry, especially just for the price point. It's overpriced and the quality is just not up to par. I don't mind spending money when it makes sense but this doesn't make any sense. It's probably other items on the menu that might be better quality. The suya it was dry in some parts tastes like it was heated up in the microwave and not fresh. The flavor just wasn't there. I've just had better elsewhere so I'm disappointed. I love the ambience of this lounge. It's always a good time. No complaints there.

But it's tucked off in Buford highway, downtown Atlanta or Buckhead which is where you may think it should be. It's in a shopping strip mall so there's free parking. That's good. And there's abundant parking so keep that in mind. They had a decent menu, I went there on a Tuesday and it had a taco Tuesday kind of situation. The chicken, steak, and birria tacos. I had a margarita, which was nothing major. I sat at the bar and ate. The birria tacos are pretty good. They didn't come with the type of consume that you would expect with this type of Taco, but they had a couple of other sauces. Just be where you got a bottle tacos two at a time so you can't just get one if you want to do the special. Everything else for the most part. As far as entrees go look to be on the high end, which doesn't shock me. I guess. Maybe not the super high end but having a couple of margaritas and a bunch of tacos shouldn't cost you like $60. To be fair. I did get six tacos, but still LOL. Again, I sat at the bar and it was okay. Bar service really wasn't super fast at all (which is why I couldnt give it a higher rating), which I couldn't understand because it wasn't even crowded. But it was just something to note.

I opted to park at the Wal-Mart and wasn't as familiar with the trail so I took the street route. Well-light and populated for safe crossing. The venue is very open and was relatively empty since we arrived shortly after it opened. I love the indoor seating concept with plenty of couches, movable chairs, tables near the open-area space and smaller sections for 2-4 people tucked away along the wall. The DJ was already doing his thing and the bartenders remained busy. As someone who wasn't interested in the drinks, I appreciate that there was a self-serve water cooler in the center of the room. The Jenga and jumbo Uno cards were a hit!!!! It was so nice to have these options available. And as others mentioned, the large screen was playing a classic movie - which we could still see from inside. I didn't stay long and this was a Sunday night but the parking lot was much busier when I left. I imagine the outdoor space gets crowded later in the evening as well. The DJ was just okay - not my cup of tea - but folks seemed to be enjoying themselves. I can definitely see why this place is popular. Although parking is less than desirable, it is not unreasonable. The venue is well-lit and easy to move around. The crowd was diverse, with various ages and backgrounds represented. And depending on the DJ, this would be a great place for meeting with friends, date night or just zoning out to some wonderful music ... especially on a beautiful night.
