    This restaurant is a must, me and a friend went this past weekend and everything was great from the food to the atmosphere and vibes. I highly recommend this place. I ordered the wild boar bolognese and my friend had the filetto mignon gorgonzola which was so delicious. Please don’t second coming here you will enjoy everything. There is also a member of staff who plays the guitar and sings at your table.

    This is the second time I've eaten brunch at Island Soul. The food is hot (warm and a little spicy), well flavored, and served exactly as described. The shrimp and/or catfish and grits are excellent as is the hurricane. Keep up the great work Island Soul!

    Love Feast! We live in the neighborhood and walk down about once a week. The staff is awesome and the food is very good. Good variety and they change the menu every so often. Great bar. Bartenders make the best drinks. A fun place in winter and summer.

    Really enjoyed our dinner last night. We each ordered the nigiri set and shared several Ala Carte selections. Everything was well prepared, sushi was very fresh and rice perfectly seasoned. The sake selection was excellent and reasonably priced. We loved the minimalist decor, which still had a warm vibe. Tables are well appointed in the dining room giving each party some privacy. And if you take a coat, do check it in with the receptionist as you will be pleasantly surprised when you retrieve it at the end of the evening. Nice job Takai by Kashiba!
