“I had lunch with a friend today and I wanted to try Soul Salad I was not disappointed. Fresh, flavorful and the customer service was top notch The owner offered to make me something special: he grilled me sesame crusted tofu and put it on the Wasabi salad. That was so cool and I appreciated it too. btw it was delicious I ate every bite I was also able to customize a salad for my husband. Thank you Team Soul Salad for an amazing lunch 🥰🙏🏻🥗“

“Every time I go, spot in with the food. This is what I look for in a restaurant. Think out of the box menu with consistency every time I go with every item I order. I keep working down the menu to try everything. They obviously make their own sauce, the ranch, super bomb diggity. Fries, onion rings, salad all fresh and crisp. Mac and Gouda cheese bites, Yes! Chop cheese, you gotta have one of these! Mushroom cap “burger “ something you will crave, Parish pie, goodness wrapped up in one dish. Salmon fish & chips, fantastic. And I forgot to mention beer, beer, beer, they also have beer and mixed drinks. There is always specials on the screens. Last time I noticed something about tenderloin and bacon …… can’t wait to go back and find out!“

“Have been coming here for 20+ years (yes, I know, it was Surf City before). Today’s experience was probably the best ever. The staff is super friendly. The quality of the food is great. Love the choice of cheese for the dawners. And the eggs were perfect. Unfortunately we aren’t locals or we would be back more often. But, we do come back to the area, it’s on our “must go” list.“

Drinks were great too. Nice enough for a date night. Casual enough to be a great neighborhood hang. 10/10.“

“honestly its one of the better Indian spots around here, ive been three times now and it keeps getting better. we came in last friday with no reservation thinking itd be dead but it was packed, still got a table in like ten minutes. the service was really on point, the guy even remembered what i drank the last time i was there which i thought was a nice touch. i always get their lamb saagwala and its somehow consistently super tender, the gravy isnt watery or boring like some places. my friend got the chicken tikka biryani and i had food envy of how aromatic the rice was, honestly might switch it up next time. this is just easy to recommend because everything feels made with care and nothing is too greasy or heavy. yeah definitely going back soon.“
