For the First Time, Times Square Has a Soul Food Destination

The most-trafficked dining corridor in America has not had a premium soul food destination at scale. Lagos TSQ serves West African fusion. Brooklyn Chop House is chophouse-meets-Asian-fusion. Jasmine's is small-scale Caribbean. Kitchen + Kocktails by Kevin Kelley arrives at 7 Times Square in October 2026 with the full soul food menu, the cocktail program, and the scale Times Square deserves.

What Soul Food Means at K+K

Fried chicken brined and hand-breaded. Lamb chops marinated 24 hours. Lobster paired with house waffles. Slow-braised short ribs. The full Kevin Kelley menu — refined for an upscale dining-room setting and proven across seven cities.
