Soul Kitchen Bar - Balkan Wine & Cuisine in Skopje

service was friendly. However we had to wait very for the food. some items on the menu had a 30 minute warning, but ours did not and we waited well over 30 minutes. But the quality was good and the views are nice. so quite a good place to drink and a bit to eat. just have the right expectations

The overall service is not on the level that this kind of restaurant should have. The waitress put the glasses and the vine in the middle of the table, not even bother to place it in front of every person. This is just one of the many things that were not appropriate. The food was not so good. I would definitely not go there again.

From the moment we entered the restaurant, the fat tall blonde waiter was quite rude to us. When we asked him to bring the menu, clear the table and change the wrong order, he pushed the limits of respect with his aggressive attitude(He rolled his eyes, put the dishes strongly etc). The dried beans came with ice and there was no sausage in it like in the picture.

Very lovely, quiet and calm place. I enjoy having a cocktail or even a cup of tea with my friends here. Not only do i enjoy the ambience, but everything else is good as well: the staff, the service, food, drinks. I reccomend you visit it!

Good food, decent prices. Pleasant staff nice ambiance

Waitress was nice and food also but not so warm (chicken in curry sauce).I can recommend also "shopska salat"

Good atmosphere and good food. Prices are also awesome. The only reason for four stars is that allowing people to smoke inside is so old fashioned. They should ban it.

Great food and ambience! Good selections of food and drinks. WiFi is a bit tricky!

Very good location, its easy to get here. Tasty food, I ordered kebap and ajvar. Later I ordered bread with garlic and mozzarella. I also tried bread with kaymak from a friend. No wines on the menu, waiter gave us a false price, after receiving bill it turned out to be much higher. Apart from this one detail, I rate my visit to the restaurant positively.

Appalling service. Starters took 80 minutes to arrive, other food arrived at different times. Staffconfused and disinterested. What a terrible decision we made to come here for our last night in Skopje. They weren’t even full. Terrible management.

Good food. It just takes an eternity to artive at your table. The service wasnt great. Good place overall.

Beautiful place , beautiful people, delicious food, amazing service ! Went there for breakfast dinner and supper and we were extremely satisfied!!! People were so nice if we lived in Skopje we would be regulars! We will miss this place and we will return when in Skopje!

Very diversified menu, good food, great location, the music was a bit loud. Very crowded but the gentelmen who attended us-a very nice person. We enjoyed.

Horrendous experience, ordered an omelet minus the ham because I am vegetarian. Did not follow instruction and brought me an omelet with ham, which I didn’t notice as it was mixed with the egg and mushroom. Once I noticed I got upset and gave the feedback to which I did not even receive an apology. Shocking! This country never ceases to amaze me (in a bad wayrudest staff everywhere, no different in this place. Do not recommend

Very nice place. Excellent and delicious food, very polite staff. All recommendations.

This was such a refresh in my trip. The place is stunning, the variety of food is out of this world and the food I got was incredibly tasty and well prepared. Staff was very helpful and I really appreciate that as it is not a given in this area of Europe.

One star for the food as it was ok-ish but service was absolutely horrible. The waiter ignored us after bringing the food —kept talking to his friends in the restaurant!! It was absolutely a nightmare to find him to get another drink and to top the cake he brought the bill when we didn’t even ask for it!!

Amazing place, the food was excellent, the serving impeccable and the portions were so big we could barely finish them. The interior has a fresh and colourfull vibe full of greenery reminiscent of a tropical diner by the sea.

Low food quality. Prices TOO high for macedonian standards. The personal was very rude. Booking a table made us feel like we were booking somewhere in Paris instead of booking near the stinky Vardar area. Unfortunately, macedonians will NEVER learn the real way of hosting. :(

Very good range of dishes at affordable prices. Nice interior and excellent location next to the Vardar river in the city center of Skopje.I had the exotic chicken with a salad en my partner had a seafood salad.Remark for the seafood salad: it comes with surimi and there could be more seafood.

Amazing cuisines with kind service.

This place is amazing. The restaurant is clean, has a very warm, modern and welcoming look.The staff is polite, smiling and helpful. We felt really welcome when we ate there.The menu has so many options to choose from - Took me a while to decide what to order, everything there looks delicious.Food was very tasty and fresh. We came back for a second time after eating there once.Prices are very affordable, the quality is amazing.I recommend this place to everyone visiting Skopje. You will love it!

Modern interior. Great food and good prices.

A really nice restaurant on a great location. Good staff, good food. I had breakfast here. Cant complain. Recommended.

Poor taste. Stale food. Expensive prices for low quality food which was served cold. The shrimp tacos were full of lettuce only. The burger bun was not fresh too. The order took too long and you need to chase the waiters if you need anything.

Nice place, good food, but you must be prepared to wait for service.

Restaurant is great, staff is well-organized. I was very surprised with the food options ,tasty and good portions.Every recommendation for these restaurant.

Bland to bad food but the sevice takes the cake. As other people in the reviews have noted, the service is terrible. It took 10 min to get the menu and then another 10-15 min to order, then I got a wrong salad and at the end, it took almost 20 min between me asking for the bill and the waiter acknowledging my request, and the time they brought the bill. I almost walked out without paying. What was even more infuriating, during all those delays the waiter would pass by me numerous times, serving other people. This was ignoring to the point of insulting. By far the worst experience in a restaurant I have ever had.

Ambience and service is good. There is room for more improvement food wise.

Nice authenthic food and great service. Local Mazedonien options available

The food is really good and the place is beautiful. The only reason they dont deserve five stars is due to poor service. The food took ages. Servers would always forget things we ordered. No customer service at all - and it wasnt even full. But they nailed the onion rings!

Very good place if you want to try macedonian food, but be careful where you sit, because maybe the waiters forgets you.

Its decent and became a bit of a regular haunt.Service is good - staff have always been attentive and friendly.Food is ok - some of it does fall into the realm of pub grub (deep fried, chips, etcbut it tastes fine.Prices are OK. On numerous occasions weve not had waiters randomly increase our bill.It seems busy with locals and tourists alike.People do smoke inside, however this is pretty much par the course in this neck of the woods.

Amazing place to have lunch, that is terrific value.Two of us has a main course, two cakes each and a side of fries for the equivalent of 12Gbp.The food was well prepared and tasty, I had the risotto and my partner had a salad.The place is very classy and well managed, very lively and popular. The staff are very attentive.

Great vibe and beautiful restaurant. The food was a bit mediocre. Not too much flavor to the meat. Fried cheese had good texture but also lacked flavor

Great European food with local touch and friendly stuff. Not cheap though.

We visited the restaurant twice. Service was very prompt the first time and we ordered 3 mains and an appetizer which seemed adequate. None of the dishes had a wow appeal but were filling.The second visit we ordered mostly the local fare which seemed much better. Ajvar, mushrooms, peppers salad was much better with the local bread which was served when asked for. Quite ok. Service was slow this time so a bit of hit and miss.

Amazing atmosphere and food! A place with one of the biggest menues in Skopje, with a lot of options to choose from. Strongly recommend it for tourists! Great locations.

Perfect location and very good atmosphere. Also the service was very friendly and quick. Although the food was tasty and the portions big, it lacked quality. The dishes need something that could lift them above average. Overall a good experience.

Wonderful, place, food, waiters. Recommend it!

I have been here 4 times and every time the food is fresh and delicious. With family and with friends, it’s really a good place with good vibes. The service is friendly and the prices are good for eating in the center of Skopje

Lovely food and atmosphere! Service a bit questionable… but it was probably quite early and they were still half asleep.. all in all good experience.

Very pleasant experience every time I visit this place. Their food is always tasty and warm, they never disappoint with their service. Also the location is perfect.

We were very pleased with Soul Kitchen, which we went to for dinner several times. The prices of some dishes may be high, but it is definitely worth it. The service is fast, the atmosphere is great, the food is delicious, the employees are friendly and helpful. Especially Rump Steak and Gnocchi turned out better than we expected, they were delicious and we went again just to eat them again.

Delicious, freshly made food, friendly service good wine and reasonable prices. Had a good to time.

Great cuisine, cozy place, friendly staff. When you are in Skopje, you must visit.

Where do I begin with this review… We’ve been in a search for a place to get a good dinner. Accidentally, while aiming for another restaurant in the same street, we’ve cane across the “Soul Kitchen Bar” and dripped a quick scan through the menu out front the entrance. Let’s do it, we agreed 😂The food was great, we had a steak (with mushroom sauceand chicken (with pineapple and oranges). Huge mixed salad (cucumber, tomatoes, cabbage…and appetizer with cheese sauce (kajmak).Staff was very polite, professional and helpful while deciding the dish. They are also ready to recommend the dish by your preference which is good if you are not familiar with entire offering from menu.The location is good, no traffic, no unpleasant noise and it’s the pedestrian area so it’s the perfect location to have a meal.Prices are, from what I see, on the upper side of the average but, not expensive. Very affordable.

Anyone who tells you this place is good has no taste. Everything I got was absolutely bland and tasteless. The potato wedges were cold, cheese unmelted. Only thing that was decent were those "pillows" filled with cream cheese. The chicken fingers and onion rings were a disaster. :(Reading other reviews I figured they fixed their service issue because the guy serving us was beyond sweet, friendly and kind right from when we entered up until the moment we left, and he brought the food very quickly.Not super expensive but definitely pricey for what you get. And I wanted to like this place so bad, it has a really beautiful ambient out on the huge terrace.

Food was great I come here every time I’m in Skopje (at least 5 meals from hereand they have all be 10/10. Prices are surprisingly low for Skopje.Lots of TVs to watch live sport. Very comfy atmosphere. Will be back

The location and decor are 5 star, but the high prices and long wait for food that isnt as good as it should be bring the rating down.The outdoor area is a fantastic place to sit: comfortable, stylish couches and chairs a stones throw from the river and the Bridge of Civilizations.The menu is printed in several languages, with photos of the dish. Prices are high, which is in line with the touristy location, but not outrageous.Alcohol is served and credit cards are accepted.
