Came to it by happenstance as it is located right in back of our hotel and the sights and sounds were too awesome to pass. The genuine friendliness and service of the kiosk vendors were only matched by the high quality and freshness of the produce and food. From Mexican aji to watermelon. From Swiss Raclette to Mexican tamales. They have it. And with a superb mid western ambiance.

Fabulous as usual with additional music available today. This has really grown into a very vibrant…read morecommunity.

I was so happy to find fresh tamale cart on the far Northside of the city…read more You've got to get here EARLY to get your pick. The cart arrives at 5:30am. I arrived at 8:30am and he was already out of everything except Chicken. I was able to get 2 dozen. The price is so reasonable...$1.25 each You can find the cart on the NE corner of Clark and Lunt in Rogers Park.

I finally was able to catch them selling tamales! This is very nearby where I live and I decided to…read moremake it an epic Thursday by strolling into work late, and have a great breakfast full of tamales! They are still located at the corner of Lunt and Clark and their sign says Tamales Garibaldi. Just a little fact for everyone that is eager to get these puppies fresh off the press--they start selling them every morning at like 6am-10am (maybe even until 11am). You have to be sure to get there before 10am because they sell out very quickly! I came one time close to 10am and they were completely sold out. Also, the price on them is 1.25 a pop, which is super cheap for tamales! They serve 3 different flavors: chicken, beef, and cheese and peppers. I purchased one chicken and one cheese and peppers. If you are sensitive to spice, do not purchase these because THEY HOT! You can indeed call these puppies hot tamales. The spice level is at an 8.5 on a 10 scale. I love spice but these are indeed extremely spicy so you will want some water to cool it down. They are a bit salty as well, and the chicken tamales didn't have much meat in them but they are still good. I would totally go back and get them! You can't beat the price, they are super flavorful, and hot in temperature. Get you 2 tamales and you are set for breakfast. They also sell something call Champurrado, which I didn't try but it does look delicious--it look like hot chocolate but it's made from corn flour. Next time, I will try it out. At any rate, go check them out and support them!

The bread was crispy, the veggies were good but the overall flavor was ruined by the fact that I had a fishy aftertaste. The service was fast.

Couldn't have been a more beautiful day. Next time different food truck for me!

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!

Street parking is available right in front of the store. You can order with the cashier or scan the QR code. We ordered the Meat Sampler that includes Brisket, Pulled Pork, Rib Tips, Cheddar Jalapeno link, and House Made Pickles. We also ordered the Sides Sampler that includes Mac & Cheese, Red Beans & Rice, Collard Greens, Apple Slaw, and Cornbread Muffin. Everything we tried was delicious and hit the spot on our BBQ craving. I will definitely be back to try other items from their menu.
