Soul Food Restaurants near Belleville, IL

“This place is always busy and worth the wait times some. Everything on the menu is a hit. You can not miss. This is a family business and they make everything love. Each dish is perfectly seasoned. Thank you for giving me a home on the road.“

“The food was very good. I got the catfish with the deep fried corn and the sweet potatoes. Very good, not overly seasoned but just right. The only thing I did not like was the music was way too loud, could barely hear the lady at the cash register. Also, I thought the type of music should be neutral, something most people are ok with, maybe instrumental.“

“Today I had the opportunity to visit Ray's soul food and turkey legs. My experience was AWESOME. Our sever Linda was ATTENTIVE to our needs . The food was MAGNIFICENT and the service was SUPERB. My husband and I both ordered the catfish fillet with candied yams and macaroni & cheese our meal was fresh, hot and SCRUMDIDLYUMSIOUS. Our 6yr old son was satisfied with his meal as well. He had chicken wings with fries and he left no meat on his bones which was compliments to the Chef if you ask me because he's a VERY PICKY EATER. I would definitely HIGHLY RECOMMEND this RESTAURANT. You will ENJOY the FOOD, the SERVICE, the MUSIC, the FREE PARKING, and the ATMOSPHERE and once you're done with your meal. Ray himself comes out to greet you at your table. I was beyond IMPRESSED !!!! Ray's restaurant SUPERSEDED my EXPECTATIONS for sure and I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND this ESTABLISHMENT to my family, friends & co-workers.??“
