We were so disappointed overall with our experience at JerkSoul after going there today for a late lunch. We ordered the passion cup mocktail, fish tacos and the half size jerk chicken. The fish tacos were extremely underwhelming. The fish didn’t taste flavorful, and the menu advertised that it came with coleslaw, avocado, chipotle mayo and fresh toppings; so I was disappointed to only see and taste bland coleslaw on top of a small portion of fish inside of three average sized tacos. I definitely feel like it was nowhere worth the price of 150 cedis.
The jerk chicken was a little better, but it was still so poorly seasoned and only had a mild jerk flavor. The chicken was mainly dry, and the rice and peas that came with it were also very dry and pretty much tasteless. Also it was supposed to come with a side of plaintains, but the waitress didn’t bother to tell us there were no plaintains. When I mentioned they weren’t on our plate, she said they had provided a salad instead (which was also bland). I told her the fish tacos also didn’t include what was advertised on the menu, and she just walked off as if she didn’t hear what I said.
What we actually enjoyed was the passion cup mocktail— it had a nice taste, was refreshing, nicely chilled and reasonably priced. The outside view was great, and the restaurant decor was beautifully designed too; but considering the less than mediocre food, high prices, and poor customer service, I wouldn’t visit again or recommend this restaurant to friends/family.
We were really excited to come to JerkSoul and support after seeing the restaurant advertised in a YouTube interview, but it fell sorely below my expectations. Ultimately we felt scammed out of 410 cedis, and the nerve to include a tipping suggestion on the bill was ludicrous. Hopefully the owner/staff will address the shortcomings because it has the potential to be a fantastic experience for customers if they actually put in the effort.

Our experience was great, we actually had a very large group from the US. The food was very good, we were able to really enjoy the restaurant, the food, the surroundings and the adjacent art exhibition. We had an amazing time. Please take the time to visit here, the atmosphere was fun, music was jumping. We had a blast.

I came last year and the food and service was great. The owner of the restaurant was very nice to us and definitely made sure we were comfortable. The scenery outside is nice at nights on the wooden swings. Definitely will comeback and visit again sometime in the future 💯

Thoroughly enjoyed my stay here. I got there with my friend at 2 and stayed till 7. The ambience was really nice and the swing served as a perfect spot after how full we were. The food was amazing! The taco shell was so well spiced and their meats tasted different in all the dishes we had. I thought they’d taste the same so I was very impressed. Please try their ginger ale/beer (they make it themselves), it’s so good. The host came to see us and was so nice. The staff are very good and attentive and kept checking on us. Was disappointed I didn’t get the oxtail so please call ahead to inquire if you want something from their limited menu. Really enjoyed the curry chicken and rice and peas. Their pina colada was also very good. a 10/10 experience, oh and did I mention the view?? 🤍

Great view and ambience. Cool breeze around twilight of the day. Friendly staff, Judah, the owner is always available for a conversation, whether suggestions, advice, recommendations, or just to vibe with guests. My husband, who is a conversationalist, hit it off straight with him as soon as we got there, and their chatting energy was automatically in sync.
Check them out if you happen to be within the vicinity, or you can deliberately plan a drive a bit outskirt of the Capital and pass through. You'll have a good time
