    We expected a little more than what we received. To be honest, we drove some distance to go to Soul and while the overall experience it was pretty blah. First of all, the beet salad didn't have more than a couple of pieces of beet in it. It was more of a leafy green salad than a beet salad. My entre was walleye with asparagus and mashed potatoes. I'd say it was just okay. The asparagus had not been prepared and the woody parts were still on. The fish itself was done well, a little too over cooked. My wife had medallions of beef and while good sized they were slathered in a mystery sauce which was not all that good tasting. The service was unremarkable. I had to ask for water a couple of times. It just seemed inattentive to us. Will we go back? Doubtful since we drove 45 minutes this time. There's a lot of options in the valley.

    They were very accommodating when we were running late with our reservation. We sat on the back patio and it was lovely. Cheyenne was our server and she was great. Food and drinks were delish. I had the flank steak and it was cooked perfectly. My friend had the seafood chowder and she loved it. I had the blueberry moscow mule and she had the French Sav Blanc. The only thing I would suggest would be some other dessert options, including gluten free. They only have pie.... so if you're a pie fan and not gluten free... you'll love their pie options!

    Although I have enjoyed the menu and the ambiance at Soul for many years, I had never tried the Mexaloaf (a spicy variation on meatloaf). WOW! It’s a game changer. Another reason to return. Prompt and courteous service was the icing on the cake. And it wasn’t too loud, allowing my friend and me to enjoy catching up without having to scream to be heard.
