I was searching for a soul food restaurant in Tempe and stumbled upon Hint of Soul online. I saw that they had peach Hennessy wings and I was immediately sold. I basically ordered one of everything for me and my family to try. The location was a little hard to find and the pick up system could use some work but the food made up for it. I ordered the peach Hennessy wings, garlic Parmesan wings, lemon pepper wings, Mac n cheese, greens and yams. Everything was divine. Please do yourself a favor and check out Hint of Soul read more

I heard about this place on Facebook after the covid shut down began to lift. I was so excited to hear about a Soul Food restaurant in Tempe just a minute away from Tempe Marketplace. It's located in the Tempe Food Court along with a variety of other little restaurants. I love supporting small local businesses. I waited until seafood Saturday to go and I wasn't disappointed. I preordered my food the night before and was able to set my time for pick up. The staff responded promptly and professionally. Upon arrival to the pick up area just give them a call and they bring your food out to the pick up window. I ordered the peach Hennessy wings and the Seafood special. Both dishes were amazing flavorful and well seasoned and portion sizes were generous. I highly recommend them. I will be ordering again I've got my eye on the collard greens. I can't wait for when we can dine in. read more

Hint of Soul - Wings and half of the crab special it's enough to share - Soul Food Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

Let me start by saying one word...DELICIOUS!!! I literally don't think there is any region of food Chef Lynn can't prepare! From Soulfood to Asian Fusion everything she prepares takes your tastebuds on a culinary experience. I have had her lamb chops, signature Mac and cheeses both seafood and jerk chicken and I refuse to make Mac and cheese anymore! Her signature peach Hennessy wings are a crowd pleaser and definite conversation starter. I can't wait to partner with her for future events. Chef Lynn will be my go to for any themed event or dinner party! Trust she has the culinary mind to execute any brunch, lunch, dinner, or fancy banquet. Outstanding job! read more

My friends and I were in Phoenix for a girls weekend and booked chef Lynn for a personal chef experience. I WISH SHE WAS LOCAL TO ME! I would literally book her for everything...even day to day meals. Her cooking is PERFECTION and her great personality makes it even better! Her food is made with love. She was on time, professional, and left the kitchen in better condition than she found it. Thanks again chef Lynn!! read more

I have been craving some really good soul food, so I ordered online and picked up. They were exactly on time for my order and the food was excellent. I ordered fried chicken that comes with cornbread. I also ordered yams and mac and cheese. The cornbread melted in my mouth and was heavenly. Mac and cheese was bursting with different cheese flavors, and cooked perfectly aldente. Yummy yams were also perfectly cooked and splendidly seasoned. The fried chicken was crispy on the outside, tender and moist on the inside. Although I like mine seasoned a bit more, I am not complaining. This place is a real cut above, and since this was my first time, I thought I would give big kudos to the chef and staff. Generous size portions, and easy on the wallet. I will most definitely order again, and I highly recommend this gem. They cater, so I will keep that in mind. read more

Hint of Soul - Fried chicken, Mac n cheese, cornbread and yams. Delicious comfort food obviously prepared with soul. - Soul Food Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

The food was spectacular, I ordered the kickin kajun alfredo and honestly wish I had more food, it was that good! Edit: Hi Lynn - Thank you for your feedback and invitation. I will look forward to trying your restaurant again when it reopens. I had tried your food about a month ago (maybe more) but hadn't gotten around to writing a review since then. I usually don't leave reviews unless I have a great experience or a really upsetting one. I really appreciate an owner that cares about and hears their customers and their concerns. On a side note, wish you'd bring back the fettuccine pasta instead of the penne, it tastes waaay better. read more

Went to hint of soul today and I will definitely be back again. Had to try it once I read on social media the owner was from my hometown Chicago. I ordered the smothered chicken, mac and cheese, yams, greens, cornbread and Chicago sweet heat wings. I had to sample several things on the menu. The food is seasoned just right. The food is fresh tasting and absolutely delicious. Hint of soul thank you for bringing that home cooked quality taste to AZ. read more

Better than expected, ordered the shrimp feast, peach Hennessy wings and garlic parmesan wings. Wings still had a nice crunch, flavor was outstanding. More than enough to share with the shrimp feast, we ordered extra corn, potatoes and sausage. The snap of the sausage and flavor brought back memories. Will definitely keep this place on my list of favorites. Forgot to take a photo of before but as you can see we loved it. read more

This week I got takeout from the Tempe location and it was delightful!! Super crispy flavorful wings and the blackened chicken Cajun alfredo has been on my mind ever since. So happy to have found this place. read more

I can't even tell you the level of customer service here. We ordered on grubhub, and for some reason we never received our food. We got a call from the restaurant stating what happened and that they would be glad to replace the order. We told them it was okay and that we would contact grub hub to rectify the situation because it was at their end. We never replaced the order, but they were kind enough to do it anyway and they did it for free. The food was also super yummy. My kids a picky eater, and still ate everything we got her! THE CORNBREAD IS SO GOOD!!! read more

Tried today because saw on FB and I always support black owned. We got ( me and my visiting cousin) Hennessy winds and garlic Parmesan, also collards, amd cornbread, baked mac. My cousin tried the chicken Alfredo which she loved but forgot to ask for extra sauce, also Chicago wings, mac cheese, and got a cornbread. Really good food, would recommend especially since it's black owned. read more

Tried this place after looking online for soul food in Tempe and it was amazing. The cornbread is really the star of the show and I definitely recommend getting multiple with your order (wish they sold pans of it) its wonderfully soft and crumbly and extremely flavorful. We ordered the fried chicken, both smothered and fried, and they were both delicious. We also ordered the mac and cheese and the collards which were both good and I would definitely order the collards again as they a delight. Make sure to call when picking up as the restaurant is not on the iPad just yet for the food court. There was also a small issue with missing sides but it was easily remedied with a phone call. Overall I would definitely eat here again and look forward to trying the delicious looking wings and yams as well as another bite of that cornbread (heavenly!) read more

Best soul food in Arizona.. Everything on the menu is delicious but my go to is the Cajun pasta and peach cobbler.. What makes this place great now not only the food but her customer service is A1... and that in itself keeps me coming back read more

Looking for that Midwest flavor?? This is the spot. From smothered chicken to cajun shrimp pasta, this is where its at. Don't forget to try their greens and their cobbler. Sooooo good!!! When my chicago family come in town, I know what we having for sure. Keep it up read more

Customer service was GREAT! The food was even better! I had the 8-piece sweet heat wings and the Mac and Cheese. I would definitely recommend this place to someone looking for good wings! read more

Are they black owned? I never been I just wanna know because the food looks absolutely amazing

Maurisha provided a catered dinner for my husband's birthday. The food was absolutely amazing. She provided stuffed salmon with crab, shrimp, bacon and cheese, chicken stuffed with mozzarella and spinach, greens, spinach, Mac n cheese, garlic mashed potatoes and my husband's favorite peach Hennessy cobbler. We absolutely recommend her any catering needs. I can't wait to get back and try her other dishes. Thanks again. read more

I'm sorry but the food is terrible It could of been a lot better. First of all my order was incomplete I ask for chicken and gravy got the chicken but no gravy then the chicken was so rubbery I couldn't chew it and had a taste like feathers. Didn't receive the extra corn bread and portions were small. This place wasn't worth the dive to get there and the $35.00 spend I want a refund. Not a happy customer!!!! read more

My wife and I were really hungry for some fresh seafood. Hard to satisfy during these difficult times. We found some great reviews about this place and decided to give it a shot. It was Saturday so we ordered the food of the day. We ordered a shrimp and crab seafood boil as our first sample from this restaurant. We ordered on their website and it was easy. Went to their location and found they were in a large shared facility. Tip: check in with the person on duty or contact the individual place by phone or on the wall mounted iPad. They'll deliver it to you in the lobby.. Bottom line: it was terrific, quality ingredients cooked just right and spiced to perfection. You gotta give them some support, they deserve it. read more

I got in on their grand opening in Tempe this week and the food far exceeded my expectations. The wings were crispy perfection, and the gravy on the smothered chicken was so so flavorful. And that mac and cheese, BOMB! I also got the cajun seafood pasta, but couldn't eat it cuz I was too full. The portions are not skimpy. My daughter polished it off, though and reports that it was very good. A little on the pricey side, but worth every penny!! read more

Solid solid solid food. Go get some ASAP, we wanted to order some more as soon as we finished but I they were closed for the day. Hint of Soul, Thank you! You guys know how to cook. read more

This food was AMAZING! My favorite was the smothered chicken and corn bread. The wings I ordered were cooked to perfection.

I will definitely be back. read more
