The soul bowls at this location are extremely good! If you enjoy soul food it’s fresh and it’s really good! I order the bowls with the collard greens, sweet potatoes and chicken. At the bottom of the bowl there was a bed of rice. The soul roll was really good too!

I got the Fried Chicken, Krack n Cheese, Cabbage, Yams & Soul Rice. It was so good! It was fresh and every thing was cooked perfectly. I traveled 1hr for this and I would 10/10 do it again.

I can't remember ever having Soul food this good. Even my mamss Mac and cheese wasn't this creamy and cheesy. I dunno what cheese blend they used but it's 🔥. I was hesitant to try the Soul Roll(egg roll wrapper stuffed with Krack & cheese with candied yams). But I took the chance based on other reviews and pics) wasn't disappointed. A nice blend of soft sweetness of the yams mixed with the saltiness of the Krack and cheese and the crunchiness of the egg roll wrapper that somehow works. Pros: I tried much of the menu and nothing was bad. Friendly staff. A rarity in Hartford. Unique. Cons: a bit pricey. Not unreasonable though and to be expected considering this is an independently own businesses. So if you're looking for the McDonald's Value Menu, look elsewhere. But if you do, I promise you'll regret it. Limited menu. Wish they'd consider adding homemade banana pudding. And not that boxed pudding with wafers. I mean that real baked Southern pudding. But what they have, it's the best in the area and possibly the state. What they mean when they say "put yo foot in it"

Going on a weekday was so nice, fast service and a hot fresh meal for dinner. The guys in the restaurant are really nice and helpful when trying to decided which sides to choose and offering great opinions. The bowls are so good, the mac n cheese is delicious as well as the yams. Really nice home style meal for when you’re in a rush. Id also definitely recommend the soul rolls they are AMAZING! too good to take a picture because i ate them on the car ride home.

Googled this place based off of location during a road trip. Aside from the fact it's not a dine-in place, the food was amazingly delicious! Can't order over the phone but the food was done quickly after ordering in person. From NY so I will say this place is in the "hood" compared to neighboring areas but for me that just meant great food; so we drove there anyway after trying to order in the phone! 🤣 I was able to have easy parking, came ordered, and left. Food was great, the place is esthetically bright and pleaseing, staff was sweet. If I'm ever back in Hartford I'd absolutely make this a stop!

Was visiting Hartford for the first time and was looking up places to grab a bite in advance. Saw Soul Bowls was recommended by a bunch of people including Daym Drops so had to try it. Got a bowl with chicken, yellow rice, their krack n cheese as well as the candied yams. All I can say it was some of the most flavorful food i've ever had the pleasure of eating. The chicken was juicy. The rice was better than any i've had before. The mac n cheese was the perfect consistency without missing any of the flavor you want. And those yams....almost too much flavor for me to finish. I would definitely go back if I found myself in the area again. The only small cons I can think of would be the location. (it's small and pick up only) as well as the website advertising slightly different ordering details than the online apps actually give you when ordering in advance. The person who gave me my food was very nice and made sure I had everything I needed. I was in and out quickly and was diving into the food as quick as possible!

I ordered ahead and picked up my food. I went into the restaurant and there was a young and attentive staff there waiting with my food ready. They greeted me and even returned cash for a sauce that I paid for that they did not have. Now to the food, I ordered chicken, Mac and cheese and yams and my partner the same, but fried shrimp in place of chicken. We also ordered the Soul Roll filled with Mac and cheese and yams. I was weary about the rolls because, where's the meat, but they were good as is, although I did tuck some pieces of chicken down the middle. The food was so good. Well seasoned as well. The only thing I think can be done better is the chicken could be either more crispy or more juicy, it's currently in the middle of the both. I would go back multiple times though.

Ordered on doordash. Solid bowl. The greens and yams were perfect as well as the fried chicken bites. If you like your yams sweet but bot swimming in syrup these are it. The fried whiting was a little chewy but still very good.

O tried Soul Bowls at the People’s Bank Arena stand and it was amazing. I’m a vegetarian and got the Mac and cheese, candied yams, and rice and the flavors- WOW! The rice was so flavorful, the candied yams were delicious, and the mac and cheese was fantastic. I’m looking forward to my next visit at their store front location. Give them a try!
