We discovered this place a couple years ago and every time we come we stop to grab these seafood fries and I am never mad at it ! The guys are so friendly and very welcoming . We ordered fish and waffles from their Sunday brunch menu and to my surprise the waffle was delicious, of course the fried fish was on point . They are expanding so its brighter than the last few times we visited ; congrats to you guys for being able to expand . They had the worst drink options tho . Henny and mango (thats a fight waiting to happen) patron margarita (I dont drink patron) and casamigos and watermelon... basically turn up drinks , it was 1 pm Sunday tho ... Ill have the sweet tea, thanks . I enjoy those seafood fries every time . Please dont close because idk what I would do without those fries lol
This place was suggested to me from a hometown friend from Harrisburg, Pa and I am so glad we made the drive while we were in Philly. The entire crew was laid back with great customer service. The drinks were delicious, I ordered a 1100 flavors and it was outstanding. The bartenders were on point (tip your bartender). I have been to a lot of seafood places, but this was the first place that i actually enjoyed the flavor. My hubby had the garlic and butter mix while I had the In My Bag Sauce. My lips are still tingling now from the spice, it was delicious... better to my hubby's but I Still tasted his . SoulFed Philly gets 2 thumbs up and 3 snaps in a circle...lol!!! I may be tipsy from my drink
My man John took great care of us. That Tang Special is popping. Compliments to the chef!! Shrimp is always very goo;d, especially the fried shrimp.
This post is long overdue. I love this place! Let's first take note that last year one of my favorite seafood places in Germantown got shut down for their health code violations which just shocked me after I read it. I couldn't believe I ate there. So I of course checked the health code for soulfed and there were ZERO violations. I came by myself, one Sunday after church. The music was playing and there were a ton of young servers but were eager to help. Since I was alone, I sat at the bar in the back and ordered my food. My favorite is the tang special: fried fish & shrimp with over fries and crab meat with a special sauce. They have specialty drinks but there's no prices on the drink menu so FYI they may fluctuate. Anyway, my servers name was "moo", a young kid but pretty cool. He was professional and worked fast. The main reason I'm writing this is to annotate how calm and professional he was with a nasty customer. Her and her boyfriend (50 year olds at least) came to the bar. The female walked up with an attitude and just started "barking" orders at him and when he made the drink she ASKED FOR, she got even ruder calling it nasty amongst other things. I just kept looking at her like wow. And "moo" kept his cool the whole time until she left. I gave him credit, he didn't let her piss him off or change his professionalism.
We ordered the Tang special which is the seafood fries, fish and 3 shrimp. It was enough to share with the two of us. Everything was seasoned well and was plentiful and had some seafood fries left to take home and a piece of fish. Everything was delicious! Service was great. We went about 4:30 no one else was there but people were coming in to get takeout. Service was quick. Definitely will go again.
