The Spot SoMa

The staff was not very knowledgeable about the ingredients in some of the menu items. When I asked the cashier about one item, she said, “I just serve the food, I don’t know what’s in it.” Bless her heart — she was polite, but it would have been helpful if someone could explain the menu. We ordered the loaded mac and cheese, but it had a very strong, aged cheese flavor — almost like blue cheese — and it was unfortunately inedible for me. The chicken on top was ok. Another issue was the amount of smoke inside the restaurant. There didn’t seem to be much ventilation, and the air was very smoky. I had to go home and change clothes afterward because the smell stuck to everything. Not long after eating, I ended up getting sick. I’m not sure whether it was the food or the heavy smoke in the air, but it made the experience disappointing overall, especially considering the price. The layout and esthetics of the restaurant were cool. Loved the couch! Maybe breakfast is better, and I hope that’s the case. I was just disappointed with this particular visit.

The food is some of the worst I have ever eaten. Both me and my partner left it uneaten and went somewhere else to fill up. Go to waffle house if you want better. And $18 for a waffle square and 4 tiny frozen wings is ridiculous. And $10 a for a side loaded fries? The place is beautiful. The food not so much

place was clean and the ambiance was good. the wings were actually very good but i got the classic sandwich and it was a bit dry in my opinion. the jules waffle was yummy but the churro was a bit meh overall definitely recommended 😋😋💝

The service was great, atmosphere was calm and the food was amazing! My family and I visited this place for brunch and everyone enjoyed their meal ( thats rare)! I ordered The Jules waffle with tenders (see photo) the waffle wasn’t dry, the cookie butter I LOVED!!!!! I also ordered the October cocktail of the month for breast cancer it was also good. For a family of 3 we spent $70 with 2 adult drinks. Also the parking wasn’t bad we parked across the street..My family and I will most definitely be returning!
