Darrell Kelley’s Soul Delicious

Soul Delicious is a recently opened gem that offers a warm and inviting atmosphere with beautifully decorated interiors. From the moment you step in, you’re greeted with a friendly and welcoming vibe that makes you feel right at home. The food is truly the star of the experience. We enjoyed a hearty meal featuring baked chicken with mashed potatoes and green beans, crispy fried fish with cornbread and beans, and flavorful liver and onions with mashed potatoes, cornbread and green beans. Each dish was well-seasoned and comforting, reminiscent of homemade soul food. One of the standout features of the restaurant is its spacious outdoor wrap-around balcony, which provides a lovely dining option, especially on a pleasant day. However, while the ambiance and food were excellent, the service c

I’ve visited Darrell Kelley’s Soul Delicious in Leesburg, FL twice now, and while I really wanted to give this new spot a chance, my experiences were disappointing. During my first visit, I found that nearly 60% of the menu was unavailable, which was frustrating. To make matters worse, I was accidentally served someone else’s order, and the turkey wings I received were overly salty, with rice that was undercooked and cold. I understand that new places might have a few hiccups, so I decided to return for a second try. Unfortunately, the second visit only reinforced my concerns. The menu had shrunk down to just four items, and even the basics seemed off. The Coca-Cola tasted watered down, and the meatloaf was dense and smothered in a syrupy sauce that tasted more like sugar than anything

I went in today shortly after opening with my 1 year old and it was amazing experience from the very start. I was spotted in the parking lot carrying her and they quickly came to open the door for me. I was greeted with smiles and warm welcomes. They even put on cartoons for my daughter so she could be entertained. Service was very quick and pleasant. I sat, ordered and got my food all within about 10 minutes. The food was hot and delicious. I ordered the baked chicken with greens and mac n cheese and WOW everything was great. The chicken was tender and moist, perfectly seasoned. The mac and cheese was so rich and cheesy (this was the main reason for my visit today, i’ve been CRAVING BAKED MACARONI & they exceeded my expectations) and the greens were amazing! I will definitely be going bac

Terrible quality of food. Fried chicken was definitely overcooked, hard and dry. It took over 30 minutes to get the order. No Coke Cola available. The tea had a slight foul smell and tasted horribly bad. Was given a glass of a fresh batch of tea that wasn't cloudy and it tasted better. Asked for butter & was given 2 melted plastic containers with an oily, foul smelling odor. Meatloaf was overly saturated with a nasty tasting sauce. Collard greens had no ham hocks as advertised and came directly from a can. No toilet paper in the bathroom stall. The walls serve as a shrine to the owner. Owner has huge ego and talked non-stop about his musical success. Service was horrible. Charged $4 for water. Employees are either in the office, kitchen or backroom. Those in the dining area were constantly

No joke! This restaurant is truly amazing! It’s my 3rd time eating here and I will be back many times. Can we talk about the Collard Greens and the Candied Yams?!?!?!?! Absolutely delicious. The best part is saving the corn bread and dipping it into the left over collard greens juice! It’ll make you want to slap somebody! The server Joyce goes above and beyond.
