Its honestly insane that I've been coming here since the beginning and have never taken the time to write a review. I remember the first time I walked in with my bestie. RC had approached her with a flier at a gas station, informing her that his restaurant had just opened up. Anyway, I'm ordering my meal, the same meal I always get each time I go. Fried fish (whiting), collards and the baked beans (unmatched). And he goes, "What would you like to drink?".... I'm like, "What do you have?" (Assuming the usual. Sweet tea. Lemonade... I was probably gonna go with sweet tea. ) He lists sweet tea of course, and then hes like, "Kool-Aid, coke, sprite" - IM LIKE WAIT. DID YOU SAID KOOL-AID?......... He's like, "Yeah??..." Im like, "what flavor???.... "Purple?...." I had never heard of that at a restaurant, and quiet frankly, that's all I needed to know. At this point, I literally go nowhere else for soul food. Also, RC is amazing. Really good guy, and his team offer the best service as well. A job well done, always. read more

I tried RC's today with my parents. We spoke to the owners, a lovely family. Some of the food is served buffet style and the rest comes from the back kitchen. I tried so many things. My recommendation would be the baked chicken, cabbage, yams, and sweet potato pie. The ice tea is a must have. Kool aid and coke products are also available. The parking lot is large. So parking won't be a problem. But the inside is small so you will probably want to take the food to go. The menu changes from the week to the weekend with Sunday being soul food day. I will be back to try jerk turkey and meatloaf. Maybe next Sunday. read more

Need to return to RC Southern cooking it's been so long and they have the best meet three in the Marietta region. He can't beat it with a free iced tea, hot buffet all the fixings you need and dessert on top for the banana pudding. read more

Great service and delicious southern soul food! Enjoyed the 2pc catfish plate with broccoli & cheese casserole, pinto beans w/ cornbread, and some banana pudding. Catfish was well-seasoned, breaded, and deep fried to perfection - honestly some of the best catfish I have had. I even was given a sample of their absolutely delicious neck bones, which I had never had - tender and tasty. Only recommendation would be to offer diet/zero sodas and also sweet tea (w/ lemon). read more

The best hidden gem in the area with some good southern soul food. The location is decent and the inside is small but doable. Most people either call in ahead or visit and wait for their order. Either way, when you get your plate, the food comes out piping HOT! As you can see, you'll definitely get your monies worth and the food is as delicious as it looks. Please give this place a try!!!!!! read more

Hey guys long time no hear from! I thought I'd try a spot today for dinner after an appointment and I was excited about this venue from the other reviews. I ordered the 2 fried wings plate and how can I put this the chicken lacked flavor. I also ordered black eyed peas which were good but the real let down is the dressing. Extremely bland and just not executed well. On top of the fact that there is a 2 dollar upcharge for the dressing. Not good! And it's very dry I requested gravy and it didn't help at all. Parking is plentiful as it's in a strip mall. I wish these guys success but I won't be back. read more

Solid southern cooking establishment. It won't win any ambiance in dining awards, however. I ordered the whole wing fried chicken and it was made to order. My food came out piping hot, crispy, and well seasoned. I chose Mac and cheese and cabbage for my sides. I am the only stewed cabbage fan in my house so I eat it when it is on the menu. I did find it odd that there wasn't a roll or corn bread served with the meal. Which, I am ok with because most of the time, it takes away from the meal. I don't live close enough to make it a regular take out place. It was a nice lunch option. read more

I found this place by scrolling on TikTok and discovered their page. I did an Uber eats pickup and was skeptical if the food would stay hot; let's say a 23 min drive home the food was indeed still hot. I got the fried catfish, cabbage, mac n cheese main and a fried whiting with mac and yams. Boooooooyyyy that fish is fried perfectly and seasoned well. I did not expect the food to still be crispy and hot when I got home but it was. That was the best catfish I ever had! The Mac was decent definitely creamy, the yams were soft and sweet. The cabbage I could tell they used red pepper flakes to season but it did need a touch of salt. It's a small hole n the wall in a shopping center, but the food is delicious no doubt. Today I wasn't looking for ambiance I wanted delicious food. Customer service 10/10 and they support the community! read more

Service was great and most of the sides were solid. Beans were sweet with pork sausage- really unique and I loved them. Mac and cheese, collards, and clack eyed peas were all great. The fried wings I had tasted like they were fried in the same oil as the fish. Not terrible just not what I was hoping for. Apple cobbler was one of the sweetest things I've put in my mouth- couldn't eat it. The red velvet cake was awesome. Cornbread is sweet (like I like it). There are lots of other things on the menu I'd love to try- will be back. read more

Today, for lunch, I had the grilled T-bone steak, cooked medium with collard greens and black eye peas. The steak was cooked perfectly and so tendered I could cut it with a plastic fork and knife. The collards were the best I've had in years. The people running the place and cooking are the best. Eating there, feels like you are home with family. read more

Only a 2 star review because the customer service was great! Very comfortable environment. But the food is absolutely nasty. The pork chop tastes burnt and like old grease and the mac has no type of flavor and was nasty. the cabbage was pretty good but i'll won't be back. read more

RC's got my wife and me thru covid & all of the heartbreak that accompanied that. We have been coming back since then. She always gets the incredible RC burger with cheese, spinach & tomato. This is a burger that is as good as the best I've ever had & I'm 72. I usually get the fried catfish plate but today I went with a 4 veg order; cabbage, greens, blackeyed peas and mac & cheese. Happy? Yes, I am. This is real food; it's not going to be 5 star perfect every time but it is going to be way better than I can do at home. If you want canned food go eat at McD's, Taco Bell, Arby's.... Just like life, somedays will be better than others - be thankful for that. I pray that RC's will help get us thru the next 37 months - I will be thankful for that. read more

It's a must I go back to try more dishes. It's been a while since I had quality soup food from a restaurant but R C's is bringing the flavor ! Both plates filled to the brim. Not pictured was the Lima beans and apple cobbler. I want them to go BIG! Take over Marietta R C & staff! read more

Dem boys know what they doing back there in that ol kitchen! Baby this food is goodt. Yes, with a T. I've been here quite a few times ordering the fried catfish on my first visit to venturing out and getting the wings on another visit and the fried pork chop on another. The wings are fried to perfection and the pork chop is seasoned well. For sides, I usually get the lima beans when they have em or the baked beans or potato salad. I mean these recipes must be passed down from generation to generation cause this right here is some good ol soul food cooking. It's food ya grandma makes in her kitchen. And the service is great too. They are very attentive and make you feel like you're family. read more

Maybe I came on a bad day? The reviews are RAVING, but the food not so much... we waited about 35-40 minutes in total for our food which is fine. I got the turkey wing w/ dressing Mac and rice. My lady got baked chicken greens and Mac. First thing first that Mac was not edible, it tasted like play dough??? We literally couldn't eat it omg what was that!? The rice wasn't fully cooked but we were STARVING so I made it work. The turkey wing was okay, 4/10 the meat was so tough. Dressing... somebody granny need to be slapped for that. $40 wasted idk who is leaving these reviews but I need whatever they had. I 100% won't be back, I hate wasting money on bad food service was really nice though. read more

OMG!! We were in GA for a basketball tournament and on our last day we were looking for something to eat before we headed to the airport. We've been looking for good soul food for a while. Anyway, we searched Yelp and stumbled upon this gem!! Before I make your mouth water with the description of the food let me tell you about the service. This is appears to be a family business and they extend that family love to their customers. Everyone was friendly and attentive and we felt like we were at a family member's home for Sunday dinner! While we waited for our food, we were given a little sample platter. This was in my opinion above and beyond and as a former marketing professional this was ingenious marketing 101. This allowed us to sample items they offered that we hadn't necessarily ordered. Two of those items that stood out were the jerk chicken and the Turkey meatloaf. I will confess I don't care for turkey meatloaf because it's usually dry and flavorless, not theirs. It was both noisy and flavorful to the point that I had to confirm it was Turkey meatloaf. The jerk chicken was equally delicious. I ordered the baked chicken breast, Mac n cheese and greens.....delicious!! I didn't need a knife to cut my chicken breast and the Mac n cheese was cheesy and flavorful. My husband and 2 of my kids had the fried catfish and it was crispy and seasoned to perfection. I loved that all of the food was flavorful without being salty, which is the sign of a true cook!! Although the space is relatively small there is plenty of room for various size groups. The restaurant is also clean...which is a huge plus. I highly recommend this restaurant; good service, phenomenal food and friendly people. We'll be sure to come back next time we're on GA!! *****UPDATE***** So I had to come back and tell you all about the desserts!! OMG!! EVERY dessert was delicious. The peach cobbler had the right ration of crust and peaches and wasn't too sweet, the chocolate cake was dense and moist, the sweet potato pie....omg! Perfection! The banana pudding was delectable and the pineapple upside down cake (I think that's what it was$ was delicious as well. Even if you are too full to eat the dessert right then GET IT! All of my desserts made the trip from Atlanta to Houston and were still very good, my only regret is that I couldn't enjoy them sooner!! read more

These people can COOK. I've gone a few times and loved what I had, my favorite surprisingly was the turkey meatloaf. I usually am kind of iffy on turkey dishes but this was done really really nicely. The staff is always nice, they are typically pretty timely as well, my only feedback is for them to work a bit more on their processes. It can get a bit confusing while you're in there, it's definitely a spot you have to visit a few times to get a feel for how everything goes. read more

Ordered takeout from their website. Food is seasoned well, good portions, reasonable prices, excellent service, and it reminded me of grandma's cooking.

We will definitely be back and when we do I will definitely get dessert. : ) read more

I've lived in Cobb Count for 8 years and never knew about this place until I was craving soul food and didn't feel like driving downtown lol. Last Saturday I decided to give RC's a try and they did not disappoint. The food was amazing. I had the porkchops, Mac and cheese and sweet potatoes. The food was delicious, I will say on the site the dinner I order had two pork chops but mine only came with one .. maybe I didn't order the right thing.. anyway it was good and I would definitely go back again! read more

When you don't feel like cooking ..... this is the place to go. Came on a recommendation of a friend and glad I did. The staff was very friendly. I ordered the smothered pork chop and the fried chicken dinners to go. The food was very good and plentiful. The cons would have to be the location. It's in a spacious strip mall with plenty of parking, but they are crammed in a small space. It would be much better if they had a bigger location. All and all the food speaks for itself and I would definitely come back. read more

I've lived in Cobb county most of my life! I've lived in marietta a majority of that time!! So how in the world has this pace missed my radar!?!?! Howwwwwww?! This little spot is official!! Nothing fancy, but just enough of what you need! I love the openness of the kitchen. Not that i sat and watched them cook, but it was nice to see that i had the choice/ option. I ordered the fried pork chop, Mac and cheese with black eye peas. And it was under $10 The pork chop was HUGE! And fried perfectly. It was a taddd salty but overall it was good. Juicy, crunchy, and meaty. This bone on pork chop gets a A minus. Mac and cheese was made with love. Idk how to describe love, but if you eat soul food you know what i mean. It was cheesy, filling, and flavorful. The black eye peas were good. They actually had some taste. I didn't see any meat but i think i must of been cooked with a little sum something in it. read more
