SOUL BOWL

"Soul Bowl, which departed the food hall in September, held a grand opening at North Minneapolis’s new V3 Sports Center yesterday, November 19, just six blocks away from where it launched as a pop-up seven years ago. “We’re bringing vibrancy back to Plymouth Avenue and honoring our roots by serving the city we love,” Gerard said in an opening announcement. The new spot has an expanded menu, including tacos and burgers, breakfast and coffee options, and more." - Justine Jones

"Chef Gerard Klass and Brittney Alise Klass’s Soul Bowl is beloved for its customizable soul food bowls: Start with bases like creamy mac and cheese or yellow rice, add veggies (think sweet plantains, smoked mushrooms, and candied yams), and finish with meats like barbecue chicken or Cajun salmon. This location is in Graze food hall." - Justine Jones, Alex Lodner

"These soul food bowls are totally customizable: Start with bases like creamy, well-seasoned mac and cheese, add veggies like smoked mushrooms or candied yams, and top it all off with meats like barbecue chicken and Cajun salmon. Plenty of vegan options are available too, including plant-based mac and cheese and chicken. Note that Soul Bowl is located on the second floor of Graze food hall." - Stacy Brooks, Eater Staff

"Soul Bowl’s soul food menu is a North Loop favorite, and the restaurant takes orders for big groups, too. Pair sides like jalapeno cornbread and creamy mac and cheese with mesquite pineapple-smoked salmon and jerk chicken, and don’t forget peach cobbler and sweet potato pie. Place an order in advance." - Justine Jones
