What to eat in and around Seattle today: Island Soul

Jun 5 2020, 8:18 pm

Those seeking some midday grub should make a stop by Island Soul for some tasty Caribbean-inspired soul food.

The family-owned restaurant has been “overwhelmed by the love and support [that they] have received from the community,” and apologizes in advance for any delays that you may encounter.

Although there could be delays this week, the food is truly good enough to wait for.

Start your order with one of Island Soul’s many appetizers. We suggest Jamaican patties, bbq pork rib tips, habanero clams, tostones, or calypso wings.

Those looking to eat light can pick between a prawn or jerk chicken salad, while those going all-in can pick an entree plus one side.

Although all of their entrees are amazing, we love their oxtail stew, jerk chicken, whole snapper, vatapa, southern fried catfish, and goat curry.
