Soulful Street Bites, a take-out-only spot in Addison specializing in New Orleans-inspired soul food, has been operating for a couple of years pretty much under the radar as a food truck before opening a physical location this September. The place operates out of a small storefront in Yet Another Strip Mall with a small area consisting of just a few chairs for those waiting for their orders. But the food here is large: cooked with care and full of flavors straight out of your childhood kitchen

ABOUT THE GUIDE
This is a researched directory. Listings include a public reference identifying the business as Black-owned or an administrator confirmation, plus a link to its website, social or booking page, or a clearly labeled business profile. Open “About this listing” on a card to see the reference and visit notes. Listings are not owner-verified certifications.
No. The 190 listings here are a growing community index, not a claim that every Black-owned DFW business has been found. Public directories overlap, change, and miss businesses. Use the wider resources above and suggest additions or corrections.
Follow a business’s own website to see its current offerings, make a booking, place an order, or contact its team. Each business handles its own transactions.
