Soul - The quality that arouses emotion and sentiment

Flavor - An indication of the essential character of something

Soul Flavor’s mission is to provide a menu offering dishes using the freshest and most locally sourced ingredients as possible being professionally presented in a relaxed environment. Keeping in mind dietary restrictions and the importance of having healthy options, Chef Newton crafts a diverse and evolving menu with a little something for everyone. The atmosphere reflects the menu in its uniqueness. One-of-a-kind artwork hangs on the vibrantly painted walls and guests dine to classic Soul music. Friends and neighbors gather at the bar where cocktails are mixed using fresh squeezed juices and scratch made syrups. The House red and white Sangria are a favorite among the locals. Six rotating beer taps and a thoughtful wine selection also add to the genuine Soul Flavor experience.
