Oh My Goodness Soul Eatery

Ashburn · Soul Food Community-sourced, unverified
📍 7920 S Western Ave, Chicago, IL 60620

Oh My Goodness Soul Eatery earns its name from the tagline straight off its own site — “food that will make you say Oh My Goodness” — and it's gone through a rebrand or two getting there (delivery apps still list it as “FKA Oooh Wee It Is,” a name with its own kind of charm).

$
A real from-scratch soul food menu (jerk chicken tips, Hennessy wings, smothered pork chops) in an Ashburn commercial strip otherwise dominated by chain fast food.

On Western Avenue in Ashburn, in a stretch of the Southwest Side dominated by the usual fast-food chains, this is a real from-scratch soul food kitchen: jerk chicken tips, Hennessy wings, greens cooked with turkey meat, smothered pork chops, catfish, short ribs, and the standard mac-and-cheese-and-cornbread backbone that any soul food menu lives or dies by. Breakfast service has recently been added on top of the regular lunch-and-dinner lineup, which is a real expansion worth knowing about if you only think of this as a dinner stop.

Hours run long most days — 10 a.m. to 9 p.m. Tuesday through Saturday, a shorter Monday (11-6) and Sunday (10-8) — with both dine-in and carry-out available. No confirmed discount special here, and no hard star rating to point to either, but a genuinely independent soul food kitchen holding its own against a block of chain fast food is its own kind of statement in this part of Ashburn.
