The pulled pork was so juicy and the sauces were varied and tangy. The biscuit was perfect and i wanted another before we had even finished.

Pro tip: I view boneless chicken as chicken nuggets BUT here they are huge and mostly juicy white meat with minimal fillers. Fries with queso were a great addition to the combos. Our server Kayla was top notch. Polite, attentive, and informative. 2 Gender neutral bathrooms downstairs.

With that comes rolls which are equally high quality and fresh, not obviously reheated from a fridge like your fast food chicken establishments. I wish I could speak more about the sides, but the mashed potatoes are so on point I've never had anything else. Location is a bit tight for parking-mind your timing when you go. It's near the university and I've been stuck in traffic when they block off the roads for football games. Also note hours-they're closed Sunday and Monday and aren't open late.

Seems to be a popular spot with the locals. Don't let the name fool you - this is not a bro hangout - it has sophisticated menu . There's a nice size bar inside which is also a shop that carries beers and wine. They have over 1000 beers. They have a happy hour. We had delicious pierogi appetizer. And roasted golden beet salad that had spinach couscous, the beets ,pickled onions, shaved apple ,Feta cheese, pistachios with a sumac vinegar that was delicious. I'm still trying to replicate it. And I had the turkey trot sandwich, which was so good .One of the things I saw on the menu was an apricot chutney with carrots and the waitress brought me a complementary little side to taste it. It was so good. We had a really really nice dinner here.

Unfortunately, the restaurant has gone downhill. Our group was seated near the kitchen entrance and there is a large opening where patrons can see parts of the kitchen. As soon as we sat down, I immediately noticed the floor and the many smashed french fries on the floor just inside the kitchen entrance, clearly visible to customers. The employee standing amongst the filthy floor didn't seem to mind until 30-40 minutes later when he was told to clean the floor up. The food was just average. My bacon cheeseburger was on a soggy bun which ruined the burger for me. The waiter was very nice and relatively attentive; however, he gave people in the small group the incorrect food, but corrected it when reminded. After lunch, as we walked out, a few of us said without prompting, "this place has gone downhill". It's too bad because it is a nice sports bar and good place to watch a game. Hopefully, management will get things corrected and back to where the restaurant was in 2022.

The Babyback Ribs were really good. The ribs are taken off the bone for the soul sandwich and plated on slices of potato rolls. The Fried Chicken was good but not the best I've had in Charlottesville. I would have liked the outside to be crispier. The cornbread that comes with the order was also good. It was not traditional cornbread-- it tasted like carrot cake corn bread. The Mac and Cheese was a little too overcooked for my liking. However, for the meat sandwich and two sides were a large portion and cost 12 dollars which was awesome. Overall, Soul Food Joint is a charming locally owned soul food place downtown.
