NEW Location Alert!🚨 @Soulandsmoke is now open in NEW Location Alert!🚨 @Soulandsmoke is now open in Evanston, IL. The flagship location is where Bold BBQ meets elevated dining, community, and art. We were impressed with the curated art selection and the food was just as yummy and unique. 

It’s so hard to choose favorites, but I know you’re going to ask. 😂 So make sure you don’t leave without trying the Moto Cigar Bites, Potato Salad deviled eggs, Shrimp & Grits, Mac & Cheese, and Smoke Chicken Gumbo. There’s tons of desserts to choose from but I really liked the homemade peach cobbler and the sweet potato pie. Grab a cocktail! The vibe in the lounge is sexy! AND… guess what?!? You can bring Soul & Smoke home for Thanksgiving. Order NOW!
