Taste of Soul

Food came out PIPING HOT! Fried chicken was well seasoned and cooked to perfection. Green beans were delicious. Corn nice & buttery. Fried okra was fantastic. For dessert we had Oreo chocolate cake, Italian wedding cake & carrot cake. All were tasty! Ariel was so sweet & friendly!

Ken and I fed our souls this week with some of the best food outside of his mamma's cooking. And the owners treat us like family! Taste of Soul in DeLand is a family-owned, fast-casual restaurant specializing in traditional Southern soul food, including highly-praised items like fried chicken, mac & cheese, and oxtails. Founded by Corey and Yvette Williams, the restaurant aims to create a family-oriented atmosphere with authentic, flavorful dishes passed down through generations and excellent customer service. Ken loves the fried chicken, of course, but often gets the shrimp. $13 for the biggest shrimp, fries, and slaw. Me? I get something different every time. Sometimes the 11-dollar fried chicken dinner, other times the 8-dollar vegetable-only meal, but this night was the $13 smothe

We came over to Taste of Soul on a chilly day during lunch time. We wanted some comfort food and found it. All of our choices were so yummy. We will be coming back!

the best Southern food ive had in a long time. The best compliment i can give them is it taste like my grandma's food when i was growing up. it does not get better than that great price, local businessman and that's a big plus to me. it was clean. i gave three for atmosphere because its quick service, its not a date night place, but dayum its good food.

We’ve been to Taste of Soul twice now and it’s officially one of our favorite spots! The first time we had the ribs and catfish nuggets—both were packed with flavor and cooked just right. On our second visit, we tried the fried chicken and fried shrimp, and they were absolutely delicious—crispy, juicy, and full of that true Southern soul. Everything tastes homemade and the staff is always so friendly. If you’re looking for real comfort food, this is the place to go!
