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.

We welcome you to Chicago’s West Town; home of the best creole-infused soul food delights on the planet. Our vision is bigger than food. We exist in celebration of culture and community…

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.

Join us, family.

Upon arrival, me and my girlfriend witnessed most tables with plates of food from previous guests, we were sat a table next to a table with plates. The server at the time was nice but the cleanliness of the establishment turned us off and we decided to leave.

Lamb chops were cooked perfectly. The macaroni, yams, green beans and potatoes, and greens were all seasoned just right. The drinks were strong, pretty, and delicious. If I lived in Chicago, I'd definitely come back. The ambiance was spot on. The music wasn't too high energy - was definitely giving lounge vibes.

I was visiting Chicago & went here with my fiancé. The host was nice and we were seated quickly. Our server was on break when we got there, but another server brought us water. Our server came back but didn’t introduce himself & we didn’t see him much after he brought us food. Our proteins (fried chicken & catfish) were very fresh & seasoned well. However, the sides were all cold & tasted a bit old. The Mac & cheese was also a bit bland. The greens were okay & the yams were very good. It was decent but not something I feel that I need to eat again.

This is the restaurant that was needed. My Book Club and I, spoke about this place all night. Great service, great ambiance and best of all, the food is just like mom would make plus more. This is a must visit, so place it on your list of restaurants to try, and go soon. SheTimeBookClub really enjoyed celebrating Christmas dinnner here, plans are to return with our mates.

This was not a good dinning experience. The waiter was terrible. She never came and checked to see if we needed anything after our food was brought to our table. We had to keep asking other waiters for things like forks and more water. We then waited an hour for our check. We asked multiple times for the check. It then took 30 mins for us to pay because the machine wasn’t working. The food was good but the service was terrible.

This was my families 1st time. We were celebrating my mother’s birthday. We LOVED the service and interaction with us from the staff. The food was amazing and we had plenty for leftovers too! We will certainly return!
