Soul Food Restaurants near Silver Spring, MD

“I thoroughly enjoyed the all-day Sunday brunch. The servers and manager were super attentive and welcoming. The food and drinks were delicious and the chef was very personable. Additionally, they allowed an older unhoused gentleman to sit in from the frigid temperatures and have a complimentary hot tea. Would totally recommend.“

“I visited Miss Toya"s Creole on Saturday September 30th. I took my oldest son for his birthday ?. My waitress Hope gave excellent customer service. The food was awesome as always. The manager Imai came to our table numerous times to make sure everything was good. Please go to Miss Toyas in Silver Springs Md the food and customer service will not disappoint you.“

“My wife and I have been tempted to stop by for a long time — tonight, we made it happen. And, it is all about the food — soup, entrees, dessert — all so incredibly good. Okay, nice interior, lots of seating, an intriguing bar, and kind wait staff. We will clearly return!“

“Great customer service prices are good as well“

“The food and staff are amazing!! Check them out!!!“

“Went to Kitchen +Kocktails for the first time last night. The decor was very nice, and the music was good and not obnoxious. Our server Ally was terrific! I’m not a drinker, so when I asked her if there were any cocktails that didn’t taste like alcohol, I thought she would look at me like I was crazy, but she didn’t! She seemed to know exactly what I was talking about and immediately had a couple of suggestions. I went with the mixed berry lemon drop and it was perfect for me. The crab cake appetizers and shrimp and grits with lobster tail entree were amazing. We had a great time and we’ll be back!“

“Take out spot right by 9:30 club and Andy’s in Shaw. If you walk fast enough you’ll miss it. I got the Hot Chicken 2 piece which was a 9/10 and a side of fries that were at 7/10. A bit pricey like $17 for a 2 piece and side. Overall recommend this spot for sure, chicken was tender and juicy, everything came out piping hot. The flavors and spice levels were on point as well.“

“The best at everything and dessert 🍮 I love 💕 the turkey wings and greens 🥬 the strawberry 🍓 cake or peach 🍑 cobbler really makes me happy 😃 the owner and staff is amazing 🤩 a must have!“

“Some of the best soul food that you can get, I am a Native Chicagoan that relocated to D.C. from Mississippi. I wish I would have visited this place when I first relocated. I visit 3 times a week (yes 3 times a week).“

“The service was top tier. The person working the register was very pleasant. I didnt get her name but she around 5pm. The food was really good. I got the lemon pepper, fries, cabbage, and yams. Everything was flavorful and fresh to order. There are a variety of sauces and dry seasoning for your wings. I will be heading back to try the shrimp and next the ribs. They had an option for turkey bht they were out when I came. They also have a few seasons to put on your order which is available on the side of the counter. The place smells good when you walk in. It is inside of a liquor shop. Very tiny space but its obviously not meant for dine in purposes. I can see them getting packed for lunch but the time I went, it was not crowded just a steady flow of customers.“

“Best food in town.. Absolutely delicious“

“Saw an amazing story about the food and owners of this restaurant- what a great story - thank you for being such a great role model and giving back to the community“

“I had the pleasure of dining at The Hitching Post DC. I ordered the grilled lamb chops, mac & cheese, collard greens. The lamb chops are in my top 2 of the best I've ever tasted. I don't normally order mac & cheese when I go out to a restaurant, but this order was perfect as well. The collard greens could use a little vinegar, however, they were still delicious. I will definitely dine there in the near future. The lemon cake had was flavorful, moist and delicious, too. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“first time was today. food is great. fast, friendly service. it's been a while since I've had jerk chicken this good. I'll be back for more“

“the food is consistent and has flavor and color. but it can improove.
I love it, dont get me wrong. request a Coleslaw. it was really sweet. you can try adding some vinegar or something to make it soursweet. i tried and woow... maybe with ur tartar sauce. loved it.
try also the fried shrimp with a little of gravy.
but love it. thats why is popular.
low a little sweet with potato salad. adding some relish.“

“I wasn't a fan of the Mac& Cheese or sweet potato pie but the greens, fried liver, and chicken wings were definitely good. You get your bang for your buck. Soul Kitchen is takeout only no dine-in. The prices are average. Parking not to bad. The location made it easy to find the restaurant because it was on the corner. Customer service was ok. Y'all, everything is hand made and fresh, not from cans. I seen one of the cooks cutting up some fresh green beans. I will be back because the menu looks good.“

“Ma and Eam are the best people u ever want to meet they showed nothing but respect and a lot of. Love in there food 5 stars sis“

“Oohs and Aahs server/host John was courteous and helpful.“

“Loved the food! 10/10, not only is it literally the place that fed the civil rights movement, it has the best soul food I’ve ever had. Feels like mom cooking for you! Our waiter Julio was very respectful and even gave us free pancakes!! Would come back again!!“

“This place is great and fast and the barbecue rib, beef is the best! The no fat and best meat and the most seasoned. I don’t like pork ribs and they offer beef ribs. The best quality too! Grateful for the money spent, I have come back multiple times for it!“

“Traveling in town for work and have been looking for a “home cooked meal” I’ve eaten 40 different places since I got here two months ago and this meal was just what I needed. I tried meat loaf, Mac n cheese, corn, string beans, stuffing, candied sweet potatoes and of course the sweet potato pie. All delicious, nice and hot even after my walk home! Will definitely be back again!“

“Great and Delicious food! So glad I found it :)“
