Reviews for Soul of Africa Restaurant in Philadelphia, PA

Don?t waste your time or money. I?ve only eaten here out of desperation trying to find authentic African food. TERRIBLE TERRIBLE... TERRIBLE customer service, they don?t have physical menus and tell you to go look online. Then when you actually find the menuthey are not serving 75% of the items on there. They could of easily just told me what they was being served instead. The ladyat the front doesn?t care about customers and will brush you off. Read more

I ordered dried rice platter and atieka platter. When you say platter on your menu, please be more specific. I expected a full... platter to have fish. I git hone before opening my order, there was no fish. Moreover, I expected real Liberian dried rice. Notcube and rice with soy sauce. I was totally disappointed. Read more

I'm so disappointed to write this poor review because I wanted to enjoy it. Walked in to a dimly lit place which is not an... instant deal breaker. Asked for a menu and was told to look online okay sure... Asked a couple of questions about the platterand the young lady didn't know. She asked another young lady who rudely answered. Ok still not a huge problem. Went backonline and the rude young lady said that the online menu shows things not available. So I asked well how should we order if themenus was wrong??? So we ordered Cassava w/rice, peanut soup, and seafood. While we waited we witnessed 3 customers come thatordered online whose orders were either not processed or started. The young ladies did the best they could but all three leftwith nothing. I wanted to eat in so I was okay the food is going to be good! Let me wash my hands... No public bathroom??? Howin world am I going to eat food meant to be eaten with my hands without washing them? So I took our food home. At least thefood would be good. Nope Everything was oily, the rice was trash, and the soup was way too peppery. This has been the 1st timeI ever encouraged my family to throw their food out. I ate half of mine. It got better with the fufu but not good enough to eatagain. This cooks seems like a family that cooks well for their family. You know what I'm saying but it's not for a customerthat is unfamiliar with the cuisine. I wish I didn't come here. The customer service and no bathroom is a problem. I hope theyfix the lighting and get the young ladies support. I want this restaurant to be successful. Read more

Food must be good because they get plenty orders but they suck for door dashers. I waited over 45 mins for a customer's order... and still didn't get it. I left. I watched many dashers come n and every single one had a unreasonably long wait Read more

The food was delicious!! We ordered on Grubhub: Attieke with lamb, side of plantains, and jollof rice with lamb. The lamb was so... tender and seasoned perfectly. We will definitely order from here again. Read more

I ordered Cassava leaves and Fufu. The proportions were healthy, I can eat it for about 4-5 meals for myself. The flavor was... amazing and overall I enjoyed it. There was a little too much red oil in my dish for my liking. It left an oily film on mytongue which I didn't care for. Read more

I received my food via grubhub, along with my order being incorrect (missing fufu) the dish itself was not vegetarian as... described. There was lumps of meat, when I called to let them know they told me they did not offer meatless options, despitewhat it says on their menu. Unacceptable. Take it off the menu, don?t allow the order to be placed if you don?t have it. Inoticed the meat & bones after a few bites of the VEGETARIAN MEAL. I?ve been vegetarian for 6 yrs now, I spent the whole nightsick on the toilet! Waste of $40. Read more
