Soul Food City closed permanently and was replaced by Mama’s Kitchen in January 2023. Google maps refuses to update this listing with the new restaurant.

This place does not live up to its name. To the sista’s and brotha’s who know what real soul food taste like then you will want to stay away from this canned food. The picture I’ve attached clearly show that they do not know how to prepare fried catfish.

This is a great place to eat! They have a great menu with Shrimp Po Boys to Cajun Shrimp and the fries and fish have an amazing Cajun seasoning that spices up the dishes in an unbelievable way.

I’m from the south (North Carolina), and this venue reminds me of one of those small grills that any small town would have on the corner. Nothing fancy, but just right. The BBQ chicken is very good, and worth it even at 16 dollars. The amount of food I got is very indicative of a “southern helping”. For my two sides, I chose collard greens and potato salad. Now of course nothing will taste like mom’s, but it reminded me of home none the less. This is the second time I’ve ordered in from this venue, and their service seems fast and consistent. It’s definitely worth trying, as I’ll be ordering again soon!

I desperately wanted to love this place because the food descriptions seemed great and its close to my apartment, but the food was pretty unsatisfying and felt stale/overseasoned. The fries tasted frozen, and honestly, anyone could have made better collard greens and vegan cajun chick’n with even a little effort. I don’t understand what made the chick’n ‘cajun,’ as it just tasted like defrosted nuggets. The greens were watery and gray and sad and the whole meal cost $15! A huge waste of money.

Literal hole in the wall; found it on accident while waiting for an uber. Worth every penny. Service was friendly and quicker than my ride arriving. Please tip if you have a similar positive experience with soul food city, they were appreciative and hard working. The chicken and waffles were cooked fresh and i am going to name my food baby Penelope. (Not related to soul food city)

Best late night food in San Francisco. Period. In a bit of a rougher area but the owner is extremely friendly and has been running the business for the last 7 years without a problem. The food is cheap, the fried chicken is crispy, what more can you ask for? Highly recommend if you’re wandering through the tenderloin late at night

Absolutely, w/out a doubt, worst food I’ve ever had. Soul Food City ought to change their name to Poorly executed food that is Soul Food only in name. I’ve had downhome soulfood and this isn’t that. I mean mac n cheese wasn’t even as good a box kind which too me is pathetic not too mention hours are not good and I’m still unclear how anyone could give this anything but a horrible review.

Good night to satisfy my fried chicken and Mac n cheese cravings but was disappointed with the whole meal . The food was warm not hot .The Manager was in the back unhappy about basically life. That negativity was apparent in the food and Ambience or lack of i should say.

After a night of libations around the city, Uber Eats introduced me to pure bliss in the form of chicken and waffles from Soul Food City. This place is legit and would stand up to even the staunchest of soul food pundits. Do yourself a favor and try them out, you won’t regret it!
