First time here, cash only long wait for menus once we seated ourselves. Sweet tea was perfect, Buffalo shrimp was tasty but a bit cool temp wise. Took a looong time to get food. Reasonably priced. Seemed short handed to me.
Tonight's dinner at Soul Mountain in Front Royal, VA was terrific. We were greeted with excellent service that was both attentive and accommodating, and the food was amazing. We opted for 'The Big Earl’ dinner, a generous platter that included lightly breaded catfish, four succulent large shrimp, and a standout Maryland lump crab cake. The crab cake deserves a special mention – it was brimming with fresh, tasty crab meat. Accompanied by seasoned fries, the entire meal was served piping hot. The restaurant has a rustic backwater feel, creating a cozy and inviting ambiance. It's bright and clean, with background music that is pleasant without being overpowering, allowing for easy conversation. The flexibility in the menu was also impressive. They were more than willing to accommodate special requests and substitutions, making it evident that customer satisfaction is a priority here. In summary, Soul Mountain is a gem in Front Royal, offering exceptional food, great service, and a charming atmosphere. It's a must-visit for anyone looking for a memorable dining experience. Whether you're a local or just passing through, this place is definitely worth a stop! Dietary restrictions: No problem
