“Saturday noon was crowded! And people kept coming. I mean why not! I thought I had the best chicken wings and they have the best fried catfish and best chicken wings! Oxtail was ok but so tender! They gave my friend a bday cake because it was a weekend of celebration!
Cool decorations and the kool aid choice was so happy! The sides need to be mentioned—-collard greens and the fried okra were so divine!
Worth the price! Authentic food in ATX—-yeah! Support local businesses!!!”

“This was my 2nd time dining here. It was my mother and sisters birthday and they wanted to celebrate at Whip my soul. They do not take reservations but when my sister got there and told them we had 11 people coming to eat, the staff was amazing! They set the tables to accommodate us, thank you whip my soul family ❤️ for making my mom and sister day special. Don't sleep on the restaurant, the food is yummy, we'll seasoned and freshly cooked. We will be going back, if you haven't been I highly recommend.”

“Came in for their cornbread and let me tell ya. It’s just right. Moist and delicious. Perfecto. Also, the gizzards… the best I’ve ever had. The service and atmosphere is exquisite! Will be back to check out their wings and shrimp n grits.”

“If you want some REAL home cooked “Soul” food you need to try Whip my soul! I had the fried fish platter with collard greens and fried okra. Wife had the chicken wings with blacked eyed peas and the dressing. What an excellent choice! And don’t forget the peach cobbler. We even got one to go for later! In an effort to get in as many tables as possible seating is really tight and hard to navigate around. The place was packed when we were there and I understand why. The food is excellent! We will be back and soon!”

“Presentation of meal was about the best thing about this place. The attitude of the staff is low class. The atmosphere is cramped to say the least. The food is salted but little taste and too greasy for me. Proportions are fine. Decent location. Slow service. You even get to clean your own table right before you sit down and wait, and wait, and wait for your food.”

“Man O Man! Been wanting to try this place for a while and it was as expected, delicious. For starters we shared the macaroni & OxTail eggrolls. The were crispy and flavorful. Served with a red sweet chili sauce, I thought they taste better all on their own. I got a combination platter with the fried pork chop, chicken wing, and catfish fillet. Pork chop was delicious, chicken wing was ginormous, also good, and the catfish was surprisingly crunchy and flavorful. For my 2 sides I had the red beans and rice, and mean greens, well seasoned collard greens with pork I believe. All was delicious. I can't wait to go back and get the shrimp and grits or the chicken & waffles. 🤤”

“My soul was so happy while eating at this restaurant!! The business is located in a plaza, there are several other businesses so parking is plentiful. The owner was taking orders, he greeted us very friendly but remained professional. The menu offers a variety of things, you can definitely find something that will satisfy your taste buds. Prices are decent and what I expected.

The atmosphere is very comfortable, if its really busy you can encounter a wait to be seated because it's not a very large restaurant. Although it was busy, we were able to get seats. The wait for our food to come out was pretty fast, maybe about a 10-15 minutes, everything is cooked to order.

About the food......it didn't disappoint, finger licking good, one bite after the other and seasoned just right!! The ancestors are VERY PROUD....LOL!! My absolute favorite of everything we ordered was the collard green egg rolls, Mac/cheese oxtail egg rolls, the yams and mac & cheese....I love fish, theirs was tasty, just not fried hard enough for me, next time I'll request that! My friend also loved his food, he got several things but his favorite was the gizzards, baked chicken and peach cobbler. This is genuinely some excellent soul food!! Don't walk, but run to Whip My Soul....I promise you won't be disappointed and if for any reason that you are...the owners are about customer satisfaction and will try to make it right for you!! I wish this business continued success 🙏”

“I saw this place had made the top 100 places to eat on Yelp in the U.S., so of course I wanted to try it out! It did not disappoint! I really liked everything that I ordered. We wanted to try the fried cabbage and peach cobbler, but they were out of those by the time we ordered just before 7:00pm after waiting in a long line for about 35 minutes! You definitely have to practice your patience when coming here, it's worth it! For appetizers, we tried the Oxtails & Cheezy Mac Eggrolls and the special of the night, Fried Green Tomatoes! Both were really good! I ordered the 7-piece fried shrimp with cheezy mac and mean greens for my sides. Everything I had was very good, I especially loved the shrimp as it was seasoned and fried perfectly! The greens had a flavor I'm not used to, but I still enjoyed them! Hubs ordered the 3-piece catfish with fried okra and candied yams. He LOVED the okra (so did I) as it was fresh and fried just right! Overall we really enjoyed our meal and would visit again, but will try to find a less busy time! One thing I want to mention, you will leave there smelling like fried food (clothes and hair)!”
