Khi & Eli's Food For The Soul

Absolute amazing..
Drove down to Springfield from NY and this spot was worth the drive and would do it again! Really soul food !!! Exactly what we were looking for.
Also this place is 10 mins from the basketball hall of fame.

Best soul food in Hampden County. Maybe even Western Mass!! The food is consistently yummy no matter what day of the week or time of the day. They also cater and prices are extremely reasonable for the portions. I’ve had them cater several of my events. They are extremely friendly and accommodating. If you haven’t tried them out… Do it now!!! (Not related or paid to write this).

Food is definitely amazing would recommend to everyone If you ain’t eating here then you is missing out 💯✔️✔️

In my experience, they don't have enough staff to keep up with how busy they were. It's a nice place, but my best friend was upset that they messed up and didn't say they were out of rice when we ordered. We spent about $60 for 2 meals, drinks, and desserts. There were other customers getting upset they messed up on their orders as well. The food was pretty good. The guy who took our order was very nice, but it seems the staff in the back was more focused on watching the game than making the orders correctly. It seemed like they were a restaurant that just opened, but the guy who took my order said they've been open for a long time. I can't remember the number of years he said. If that's true, then I definitely expected better service. The food is good, just don't be surprised if your order is wrong or they are out of things fast. We went on a Sunday around 3 pm.

My husband and I drove from NY to visit our son @ Springfield college. Each time we attend one of his games we google places in the area to eat, and boy, were we ecstatic with our decision this time. Everything we ordered (Fried chicken, Whitings, Mac n cheese, candied yams, collard greens, potato salad) was absolutely delicious. Both my husband and son are both picky eaters, but they were speechless. Everything we ate was seasoned to perfection.

The portions were big, (none of us finished our plates, we enjoyed the leftovers on the ride back to NY.) service was great, took 30 minutes to get our food but it was worth it. For 3pm on a Saturday, I wasn't surprised.
The restaurant was clean, and staff was friendly.

If we lived closer, we would have probably gone back to today! But definitely will be back soon!!!!!

I placed an order because my child was hungry and wanted soulfood. I didn’t want to cook due to a long day at work. Well anyways they claimed they never got the order even after being showed the receipt with order on it. The lady working said she couldn’t do anything she don’t know what to tell me. Well I’m actually thankful that I didn’t get the order because my son was better off cooking his own velveeta and canned Glory collard greens😅😂😂

No ribs were available. We had to order something different. Catfish and fried chicken were a good 2nd choice. Greens were a bit salty but had a nice kick of flavor. Mac n cheese was really good!
The dining area was decorated nicely. Unfortunately, the bathroom was out of order.

Parking: No bar. Not sure about byob...
Definitely call 1st to make they are open. Google listed times are incorrect for Sunday.

As I always mention, born & raised in NYC, Specifically Crown Heights, Brooklyn!
So when I say “I know good soul food”, I mean it!
As far as soul food, and all of my experiences eating at different restaurants go,
Khi & Eli’s Food For the Soul has officially taken first place in my book!! My High expectations were met in every way. From the recommendation to the service and the wait time to the food.

I am truly impressed with the meal I’ve eaten today. Hands down the best restaurant I’ve ever tried serving Soul food! Can’t wait to go back!
