Have been to Soul countless times and always have a fantastic experience. The cocktails are great, and the food is even better. Definitely our favorite restaurant in Charlotte. The menu changes a fair bit, but unlike most places, I never have trouble finding several things I like.
If you haven't tried the pork belly watermelon tacos - they will change your life. Do. Not. Miss. Them.
Remember - they don't take reservations, and there is almost always a 1-2 hour wait. The pro move is to put your name in with the hostess (or use the NoWait app to get on the list), and then go across the street to Peculiar Rabbit or Workman's Friend for a drink while you wait for your name to be called.
