Just visiting, wanted some soul food, so I look up black owned restaurant and found this place. Food was on point and next time I’m in area,I’ll be there !
They food is delicious I order at least twice a week but I’m super sad they stop making oxtails. Other places around the area don’t compare
great people great place had lunch here and it was so good I highly recommend this soul healing food!

Soul Food Chess House offers top-tier customer service and delectable soul food. The restaurant has earned a reputation for its friendly staff, who readily answer questions and provide excellent service. The food is a highlight, with dishes like the turkey wing with gravy platter and fried whiting platter with greens and sweet potatoes receiving high praise. Reviewers have described the restaurant's ability to "touch your soul" with its food, making it a must-visit spot in the Poconos. Recently, customers have enjoyed dishes such as oxtail with mac and cheese, seasoned french fries, and catfish, along with collard greens, macaroni and cheese, string beans, and cornbread. The Shrimp Dinner with Candy Yams and Mac & Cheese, as well as the Sweet & Spicy Wings with Yams and Cornbread, have also received great feedback. Many have described the meals as "slamming" and expressed their intention to return. However, some have pointed out occasional issues with service, such as dismissiveness or problems with orders through delivery apps. It is recommended to call ahead as some customers experienced longer wait times for their meals. Despite this, the restaurant continues to be celebrated for its delicious soul food and welcoming atmosphere.
