    Some of the best tasting turkey legs I've had in a long time. The food is always delicious, the service is great, and it's always clean. I love this place. Thank You River City Soul.

    Outstanding! My husband and I were passing through Demopolis and chose River City Soul for dinner. Glad we did. The owner was very personable and his food was amazing. Homemade rolls fresh from the oven started the meal off right. We both had the Grilled Salmon Fresca which was superb! The cheesecake topped with caramel, chocolate and pecans was the perfect end to an exceptional meal. If you haven't tried this place yet, GO NOW!! You will not be sorry.

    Y'all listen to an old country preacher that loves to eat. If you're looking for the best food easily in West Central Alabama, you have to try River City Soul. People, I know good eating. I travel a lot for work and get to eat all over the country. Houston, Chicago, St. Louis, New York, Baton Rouge, all over. I said West Central Alabama, easily some of the best in the country. If you haven't been, you're missing out.

    We haven't been here in quite a while due to not living in town, but tonight we called in a pickup…read moreorder and while we did enjoy the food and highly recommend this place, I had an "experience" with one of the young ladies behind the counter as I entered the store to pick up our food... I pulled into the large, EMPTY parking lot and parked in a spot directly in front of the store, the spot that's right in front of a huge hole in the lot, and as I walked in and was greeted by a very sweet little boy, couldn't have been a day over 2-3 years old, who was trying his best to make me take his fortune cookie.. but the sweet and innocent interaction was interrupted by an employee that loudly exclaimed, "you whipped that thing on up in here! Clearly you don't care about civilians!" and then disappeared into the kitchen. I'm not entirely sure how anyone could "whip" their car into said spot, especially after just braking and driving through the previously mentioned hole, but I'm mainly curious about the "civilians" she mentioned because like I said, the entire lot was EMPTY. Maybe she's a medium and sees the dead, who knows. If that's the case, it may do her some good to keep that tidbit of information in mind so she doesn't come off as rude or "crazy"... Also - I'm not a complete fool and it irks me enough to continue typing this review, but the blind accusation that I'm a careless person that has no regard for anything or anything but myself once I'm behind the wheel of a car seems pretty wild... especially if she's paid enough attention to actually notice that I was in the middle of a very sweet and innocent interaction with a child, that she interrupted and loudly exclaimed this nonsense in front of the mother of said child, who was trying to check out with another employee and the third employee was attempting to take a phone order... but the fact that she felt the need to say anything at all but then immediately disappeared to the kitchen when she really should've been the person to help me since the other two ladies were busy... but vanished... just added to her negative score she had going.. but I digress.. ‍ I realize this isn't a huge deal but it got under my skin just enough to write this stupid review. If this was my small business, I'd want to be aware of things like this. I do not want anyone to be disciplined but I do think a quick, private chat about customer service and customer etiquette may not be the worst idea out there. Everyone does things different in life but this establishments set up is pretty quick and easy - so the interactions should be pretty minimal and to the point, I'd like to think - empty introductions and end with a general appreciative line or two onto whatever is next. ...I realize that I'm just one random person that took time to type this thing but who knows how many other people would simply never return or simply bring awareness to leadership. ‍ Again - hopefully a random "glitch" and highly recommend this place. Always has great food.

    I've never seen a rice bowl like this. The food was not great. There was no taste. It was too much…read morewater in the food. And I saw Rat dropping in the bathroom. I will not recommend this restaurant for anyone.
