Review summary

AI-generated from verified diner reviews
Soul Prime delivers "amazing food" and "great service" in a cozy, intimate setting reminiscent of "grandma's home cooking." Highlights include the "incredible" collard greens dip and crispy fried chicken. While service can be slow during peak times, the welcoming atmosphere and "flavorful" dishes make it a must-visit for soul food lovers.

    We thoroughly enjoyed our meal and the service was excellent. It’s a little loud in the small dining room but pleasantly buzzy, both comfortable and elegant. The room was way too warm, however: maybe turn the heat down a bit? Otherwise excellent, though a wee bit pricey.

    Not friendly staff, I didn’t receive my food but the rest of my party did. No explanation or communication was given until I asked to speak with owner. Owner is very nice and tried to make it right. Unique and the other man are the most terrible employees I’ve ever encountered in the food industry. There was also problems with payment when I used the open table app that they promote. Had to pay 2x for my $240 bill because their system was messed up. I was told no worries the extra charges should fall off. Do not waste your time or money
