Hungry House — Restaurant in New York

Review:

I recently had the opportunity to try the food at a restaurant called "Soul Bowl," and unfortunately, I must say that my experience was quite disappointing. The food was simply awful.

One of the major issues I encountered was the strange combination of ingredients in the salads. It seemed that they had no understanding of flavor pairing or culinary balance. For example, one of the salads I ordered contained a mishmash of apples, pineapple, onion, sour cream, chicken, and tomato. The flavors clashed horribly, and it was an unpleasant experience trying to eat it. It felt like a random assortment of ingredients thrown together without any thought or consideration for taste.

Furthermore, the chicken in the "Soul Bowl" was undercooked. It was raw in the center, which was not only unappetizing but also a potential health hazard. This lack of attention to basic cooking standards was highly concerning and unacceptable.

Given my experience, I cannot in good conscience recommend "Soul Bowl" to anyone. The poorly combined ingredients and raw chicken are clear indicators of a lack of culinary expertise and attention to detail. It's disappointing when a restaurant fails to deliver on its promise of good food, and unfortunately, this was the case with "Soul Bowl." I would strongly advise looking elsewhere for a satisfying...

I dropped in this morning for a breakfast burrito that took over 15 minutes to be made. Once I was given the burrito I asked the male staff member that he hadn’t included the sauce. Perilously when I ordered this same item I was given sauce. The man said nothing and just ran to get this Spanish girl who started to scream at me and ask why I was talking to the man. I explain and said I asked for the sauce on the side and she screamed at me some more that he doesn’t speak English and I shouldn’t be speaking to him and just take my order and go. I explain to her that 1. If he doesn’t speak English why is he placed in a position to interact with the public and 2 put a sign up saying he doesn’t speak English and I would have tried to flag someone else down. She screamed and screamed some more saying the sauce was inside (it wasn’t) and threw the sauce and hot sauce at me. At this point I asked for her name and she just walked out of the kitchen and ordered everyone to exit as well. Terrible customer services experience and it’s 9:35am what kind of morning did you have that your already...

I'm not sure what happened within the last 6 months, new management, a new team, etc. but the quality in the food has gotten so bad that I have no desire to ever purchase food from there again.

I used to order from them all of the time because of the convenience in location at the Navy Yard and they used to be tasty. The only reason I ordered from them for lunch yesterday was because I got $10 off via "stars"/points.

Figured I'd "play it safe" and get their Backyard BBQ Chicken bowl with greens, broccoli, sweet potatoes, side of aioli. The aioli was rancid (second time this has happened), the broccoli consisted of mostly cuts, and the sweet potatoes were suspect in color/taste.

Hungry House used to be such a convenient option at the Navy Yard and now it is so...
