About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions

Soulé Chicago is a boutique restaurant inspired by the first line in Biggie Small’s legendary hip-hop single,“Juicy”: “It was all a dream…” and the soulful memories of Grandma Bea’s laughter and Momma’s smile. The soul food kitchen has always been a place where family, friends and tribe would gather to catch-up on love.
Soulé is no different.

Since 2017 Soulé has been the go-to creole-infused soul food destination for everyday people, tastemakers, celebrities and social media foodies in search of bursting and robust flavors of home cooked food. We are the official taste of home away from home.

    Soulé Chicago has been on my list for the LONGEST, so I finally had to see what the hype was about! 👀🍽️ Those catfish sliders and green beans with smoked turkey? BABY, I need those again! 🤤 The salmon plate was another favorite, too! 📍 Soulé Chicago 3615 W.

    If you’re in the mood for some soul food with a side of ambiance, @soulechicago in North Lawndale might just be your next go-to. We tried: • Fried green tomatoes • Cajun salmon bites • Shrimp & grits • Blackened catfish over dirty rice with garlic cream sauce and shrimp Check them out at 📍3615 W Roosevelt Rd, Chicago, IL 60624 The setting is stylish, the drinks are pretty good, and it’s a Black-owned establishment worth checking out. Bookmark this for your next food adventure and tag a friend who’d appreciate the vibe! #chicagofoodie #chicagorestaurants #chicagosoulfood #blackownedchicago #chicagoeats #choosechicago

    The wait time for our food was over an hour after we were seated. Our table was near a door connected to outside causing a strong draft of cold air. The staff kept opening, and then leaving the door open, even after we expressed discomfort with the draft. We had to remind the server to bring our drinks twice and were automatically charged a 20% tip. We will not revisit this restaurant.

    Had a great time, from the service to the food and the whole vibe. The music was awesome and the food was delicious. Our server was great—super friendly and attentive. This is definitely going to be one of my go-to spots whenever I'm in Chicago.

    Although the food was delicious, with the slow and inefficient service, going here and the price is far from worth it. Reservation was for 7:15, full party sat by 7:30. We didn’t finish until 9:45. And this was not due to us. For example, drinks took ~30 mins. Once they were finally done (about 15mins after the order was placed) only 2 drinks were brought out. After another 8 mins 2 more drinks brought out. Another 5 mins, the last drink(which wasn’t alcoholic) was brought….I only know this because I had a clear view of the bar and saw several finished drinks sitting on the bar which happened to be our drinks. Food time followed the same pattern. I probably should have expected this type of service since this place does the infamous automatic gratuity. So clearly they don’t care.
