“This place has such kind people. Food was amazing and service was fast and polite. I was an idiot and forgot my debit card at home so I couldn't pay. I had the money but I just needed to get the card since my ADHD was bad today. The gentleman at the counter covered my food for me when he didn't have to. I felt so embarrassed but I'm grateful for such nice and understanding people! You deserve all the 5 star reviews! I'll duct tape my card to me next time!“
“Story time at the end. This place is awesome. It's very neat, always clean, very tasty. It's not a lot of food. If you like large portions, this is a better lunch than dinner.So, last time we ate there, there was this big dude bro and he kept mumbling. Finally said "the fruit one." Come on, big man, it won't kill you to ask for Fruity Fran. "That fruit one" slayed me. You're already in there, just order it, you know the name.Parking: Can be a little difficult to find parking at peak times.“
“I had a taste for catfish today so since I was in Northport I decided on Blue Plate. Omg the best decision! I got the fried catfish, turnip greens and purple hull peas. The fish was piping hot and tasted so good. The veggies were delicious. I recommend this place to anyone looking for a home cooked meal from a restaurant. We eat here often and they are consistent with their food. Always good and tasty.“
“Person who checked me out talked me into trying the jalapeño with cranberries. Instead of trying , I bought them both as well as just the jalapeños one. Loved them both. Check out person should be a sales person how well she talked me into the 2nd item.“
“The service was amazing everyone was very tentative and the food was great. The fish was best I have had in a long time. The prices were as good as the food. We will be back when traveling down this way again. Well worth the drive off the interstate .. Don't pass this place up.“
“The food is fresh and delicious. The orange rolls are my favorite. If you like your strawberry lemonade sweet you won't get that hereParking: The building is connected to other businesses. Close parking depends on the time of day you're dinning.Kid-friendliness: They have a kids menu. My child enjoyed it“
“I have eaten at Southern Ale House for years, and recently this past weekend on 10/28 had them cater the dinner for my wedding. Every single time, Southern Ale House has provided an amazing meal with great taste and beautiful plating. I highly recommend them, and I truly think they’re a staple and a must-try when in Tuscaloosa.“
“Biscuits are elite! The biscuit that your grandmother intended for you to have at every breakfast. Pancakes and sausage are good. Hashbrowns were ok. Grits left something to be desired but forget all of that…. Go for the great college diner atmosphere and stay for the biscuits.P.S., I ordered a lot of food. $18 was my total. Great price for great quality.“
“Was working in Tuscaloosa and a restaurant with a two hour wait recommended the River. We had the steak filet and the seared tuna. Both dishes were absolutely amazing. The service was outstanding and the whole experience was just classy and comfortable. Brussel sprouts were on special for an appetizer, they were the best we’ve ever had. I highly recommend this restaurant.“
“Had late night appetizers. Restaurant has a slight odor that seemed a little off, even for an oyster house. Kitchen closed things down a little ahead of schedule, but our server fixed that issue. Portions could have been a little bigger. Overall, I recommend and will return. Solid flavors.“
“We discovered this awesome restaurant a couple of weeks ago- we own a window tint shop on Skyland and it's so easy to order lunch online and go pick it up. They are always busy but I haven't had to wait to get my food. The food is AMAZING- it's well seasoned, the meat is always tender, and the portions are huge. I can eat twice from each meal I get there. PLEASE for the love of all things good, give this place a try. In a world plagued by a severe shortage of excellent meat 'n threes, this place is a gem!!!“
“I am writing this review late , however on two months ago, I ordered a surf n turf gyro combo meal without some of the veggies and steak, just shrimp and tomatoes and of course the sauce . It was sooooo good! It tasted like a shrimp chalupa . The fries were real good , my lemonade was sweet. I ate the whole thing that night lol. Chef’s kiss !“
“I love the food here, especially the fried mushrooms and pickles. Sometimes, the cashiers/ waiters /waitresses can be a little rude or quick with me. I don't like that. I think they should be trained better, and the restaurant isn't always super clean, either. Other than that, I think this is one of the best fast food restaurants.“
“The brisket sandwich was amazing. Our waitress was also amazing. My wife's chocolate pie was the best she said. I had the banana pudding, and it tasted freezer burnt. But I will try it again to see if it was just a one-time issue. But all and all great food. O ya the muffins are over the top “
“Let me start off by saying that I'm not really a fried chicken eater. I popped off at this exit to get some grilled fish from Captain D's. They were out of pretty much everything since it was closing time, so I headed across the street and landed here. Long story short I ended up with fried chicken and french fries. Fried chicken is dry, two crunchy, and there's usually much more breading than actual chicken.None of those applied here.These are probably the juiciest fried chicken strips I've ever had. And the breading was crispy and relatively light, and there wasn't that much of it. The Texas toast was close to perfect, the fries were... Meh. Overall though, I was very impressed with this place and for a Zaxby's clone, they do a better job of it than Zaxby's actually does.“
“Me and my wife had the pork chops, oxtail, and a slab of ribs all for about $51 we got four sides total. Everything was fantastic best barbecue spot I've had in Tuscaloosa. Only took about six or seven minutes to order our food pay and leave ⏰ ?“
“We walked in and everyone was so friendly and genuine! You can tell the restaurant is its own community full of love. Owned by a family with loyal customers for years. ? We got the ribs and catfish and it was phenomenal! Will be coming again!“
