  I waxed long and slightly crazy about this place on Yelp, so if you'd like to read the full gospel, feel free to go there and read and wonder if I should be committed somewhere.
  
  Truth: This place is fantastic. Amazing price for a HUGE amount of food, and they have a customer loyalty program through which you can get free food, discounts, and all kinds of things.
  
  The service is attentive and the people there take real pride in the food. It's just a homey, vibrant atmosphere. It almost feels like you've gone over someone's house for dinner. The proprietor of the place also works there and she will ask you minimum three times if everything is to your liking. In case you didn't know, she was basically the queen of soul food in Manhattan in the 90s.
  
  I said it on Yelp and I'll say it again: this place should have a line out the door every night. Everything is AWESOME. My favorite so far has been the oxtails; ask the staff if they remember the crazy girl talking about catching the spirit from the oxtails. It happened! They were so good!
  
  Blessings on this place. If it ever closes, I'm going to be heartbroken. I'd eat there every day but I think they'd call the cops on me and eventually I'd be too big to drive. I just get really excited about really good food, haha!

  I have been to Filet of Soul once before and the food was delicious! However, I arrived there about 7p on Friday 3/10. After waiting for my food for an hour and 20 min my husband and I walked out. During that time the manager/owner never came out to apologize! Didn't say word!! The waitress was very nice but kept making excuses. I will not return to this restaurant nor will I recommend it!!
