Old review that didn’t get posted, maybe 6-8 months ago.
Again, I must say that this place never disappoints! The steak was cooked med/well, it was so tender and juicy, I used the plastic knife on my steak without having to use any pressure. Lawd Hammercy
The hamburger steak was seasoned to perfection, and the gravy was just right. The salmon was reported to be delectable (I don’t eat it), and the hamburger was even cooked to perfection! I didn’t mention the sides. Just look for yourself!!
He webt above and beyond when I called back to inquire about changing my side item. Tommie and this crew are aimed to please, and well pleased is my overall experience. Thank you, River City Soul, for another great dinner decision. Did I mention that this was a carry -out? It makes the review even better

My husband and I ate at River City Soul tonight and it was amazing! The staff was so friendly and attentive. We had their bruschetta which was lovely and so tasty. I ordered the shrimp and grits and he ordered the salmon fresca. Both were wonderful and beautifully plated as well. If we lived closer this would definitely be on our dinner out rotation.

This gem of a restaurant was extraordinarily delicious. Being from Texas, I have to say the rib steak I had tonight was more delicious than Anywhere and I have tried many places around the country and surpassed my favorite steakhouses in Texas! My husband was equally pleased with his grilled pork chops. The owner actually prepared our food and the flavors he used were amazing! This is a five star restaurant. The owner was gracious and did many extra things to make this a fine restaurant. I thought of casual home-syle food when I saw soul food. I was wrong. This is a fine restaurant with exceptional food. The sides were also great. The hot rolls were scratch made and so fresh, warm and tasty! We talked to the owner and they have a buffet for lunch which is quite reasonable. I feel he is priced reasonably for what he serves. The atmosphere is relaxed and very friendly and he even has relaxing jazz which gives it ambience. It is my new favorite go-to place in Demopolis. Come try it. You won’t be sorry. Customer service and satisfaction is key to this fine establishment. I see they also cater. I think Tommie’s restaurant can surpass many 5 star restaurants. Since I haven’t eaten at all of them, I can’t say all. But I can say it’s the best I’ve eaten. His heart is in this business. So give it a try.

To the manager and staff of RCS, the members of the 287th Trans Co want to thank you for the service you provided at our 12 Dec dinner. The waitresses were courteous, patient and friendly! The food was excellent!! There were at least 50 guests and we ordered off the menu and we had our food in a reasonable amount of time (hot). We also appreciated that you closed the restaurant for us. We hope to make this a yearly event at your establishment. Again, we want to say thank you!

We weren’t sure what to expect but were pleasantly surprised. Due to the holiday, my family decided to patronize a local establishment and we picked a great location.
River City Soul is close to the outskirts of town but is located in an easily accessible location. There is plenty of parking. My only suggestion would be to have a larger sign that will bring more visibility from the roadway.
Upon entering, I felt like I was under dressed as the establishment is very nicely decorated with soft jazz playing in the background but the staff was accommodating and did not mention any type of dress code. I was with a party of 11 and we were seated very quickly.
The service was great given our party size.
I can’t even begin to discuss the food. There were so many choices. The wing special was the highlight for the majority of my family. We also ordered the grilled shrimp dinner and the rib plate dinner. Everything was cooked perfectly. Very well seasoned and plated well. We could not have asked for a better holiday meal. I will definitely visit often when I’m in town visiting family. I highly recommend.
Great place for families or even for an intimate date with your significant other. You will not be disappointed.

Traveling to town for a football game. Read reviews and decided to stop. We arrived at 5. We were a party of 4 and the One family ahead of us was also a party of 4 –per sign we sat ourselves. I’ll preface this with there was only one waitress and she was doing her very best. It was well over 20 minutes before our orders were taken and over an hour before our food came to the table. we ordered shrimp and one ordered hamburger steak. I can’t imagine the wait if they had been busy. The food was good. Maybe we just visited on an off night or they had extenuating circumstances. An explanation of why we had to wait so long would have been nice. Again I’ll say the waitress was sweet just overwhelmed.

We showed up on Christmas Eve and they were still open and serving. Wonderful food and absolutely amazing owners and staff. When they found out it was our son’s birthday, they put it on the big TV and even brought him out a slice of cake. Definitely eating here again! Maybe they will expand to somewhere around Knoxville, TN!

Delicious food, appetizer was perfect.. the salad was fresh greens Not iceberg! Wait, did I forget to mention the homemade blue cheese dressing! Grilled shrimp was seasoned perfectly. My potato was cooked just right. Staff was friendly! My husband’s grilled shrimp po boy was pleasing to both palate and eyes! Love the vibe and overall atmosphere.
Update…Wait time have increased. Food isn’t always hot. But it is good. Waited 2hrs to get a drink and 30mins after to place my order.
Limited order on wings (2) per call. So not for a large family on wing night.
Consistency is always Key.
