I ordered the Jamaican tea drink-so dressing and the Kingsley Street Fried Chicken dinner. The chicken was perfectly fried to perfection, the macaroni and cheese was cheesey, the yams were definitely what it means to be candied and the cornbread was warm with enough sweetness without being too sweet. I really enjoyed the ambience and hospitality here. I cannot convey how delicious this food is!!! This is in my top three restaurants to eat at now.

Soul food has arrived to North Buffalo in a big way! Get the word out because I need them to stay!…read moreRestaurant is in the heart of North Buffalo, located on Hertel about two blocks from Parkside. Cute vibe inside. They do have a bar setup, but didn't appear it's used for alcohol. I was greeted as soon as I opened the door and was walking through. Being my first time, I did order a few didn't dishes, sides and desserts to try. There was NOT a bad dish. All the food was amazing. Great portions, tasty flavors and everything truly was cooked to perfection. I have given up talking about prices because let's be honest where can you go for cheap anymore. BUT I have to mention I got the Kinsley street fried chicken dinner, it comes with four prices chicken (half chicken, breast,leg,wing,and thigh) and two sides for 22.99, I felt this was actually a great price point and so worth it. Our next dish was the JP fish sandwhich and fries, again, the sandwhich was huge, the fish was seasoned and cooked to perfection! Fries were yummy. Next up was the TPs hot honey chicken sandwhich. Now I am over the hot honey chicken sandwhich as it's been done to death, but I still always feel the need to try eveyones hahaha, and glad I did another grand slam sandwhich! For the sides, I tried the Mac and cheese, pinto beans, collard greens and coleslaw. If you follow my reviews I am a Mac and cheese snob, don't think I order many that I liked, well thank you Heavens because the Mac and cheese was DELICIOUS!!! The Coleslaw was also top notch. I don't eat collard greens or pinto beans but my family told me they were good. They did not have desserts on the menu but I seen some on the counter, sooooo I order a slice of caramel cake, slice of sour cream cake and peach cobbler. Fat kid heaven they all were so good. Literally the best caramel cake since my mother in law! I felt like I just ate at my husband's family reunion. I had to go in and order, then I left ran to dash and came back in about 25 mins and my food was ready when I got back. So service was pretty fast. My only thing wish you could order on line first, parking is not the best in that area. Also Google has address as 1641 Hertel but it actually is 1633, not a big deal because same area but just a heads up.

She's clearly proud of the food she creates and genuinely eager for everyone to try it. Her pride is well placed, because the food is absolutely wonderful. Today, I ordered the jerk chicken lunch, and it was beyond amazing--creamy, flavorful, and perfectly spicy. Definitely a full, satisfying meal. If you haven't been yet, I highly, highly recommend checking it out. You won't be disappointed. I also picked up a banana pudding today, and it was equally fantastic--rich, smooth, and full of flavor that warms both your heart and your belly. I'll absolutely keep coming back, with or without the app. A Taste of Soul is quickly becoming one of my go-to spots!

You're guaranteed to see people from all over Buffalo gathered at the bar enjoying great food, drinks, and even better conversation.

The only downside is the wait time for the food, which can be a bit long at times, waiting an hour is the minimum. Even with that, the atmosphere and quality of the experience keep me coming back. Order the haddock and macaroni/cheese. #HappyEating

The side of yams was alittle off, I can't put my finger on it. The seasoning and flavor was good but I think the texture was off for me. I think I like a bit more bite to my yams.

The restaurant is downtown, and we parked right in front. Found it strange that we could only order to go and there wasn't a dine in option on a Saturday. We still ordered and ate in the car. We had fried haddock, sweet potatoes, and collard greens, along with a slice of Hennessey pound cake. The food was hot. Had good flavor but wasn't a fan of the breading on the fish and the cake was very dense. The gentleman that took our order was very nice and the chef was also friendly. All in all the food was OK.

I'll be back for sure. Just a warning if maps or google sends you the wrong way be patient and try again it's over by an open field, not in the middle of a house lined street. Also don't come starving cause it does take a long while before your food comes out after ordering since everything is made fresh.
