We searched Google for a restaurant in Front Royal and Soul Mountain had some great reviews. They definitely live up to the reviews!! The service was excellent and all the staff were so friendly. We ordered the recommended dishes and were so happy with our meals. 1/2 rack ribs with Mac and cheese and pulled pork with Mac and cheese. The sauce was wonderful and ribs fell off the bone. Highly recommend stopping here for a great meal!

Large portions, casual atmosphere, and good food. The crab artichoke dip fries were yummy. Loved the jerk salmon over coconut rice with mango salsa! Very friendly staff.

Excellent, large portions of food. All prepared in house by family. The atmosphere is simple eclectic, the food is BBQ and soul food. We were seated quickly, as a large group. The service was fairly quick and the selection was great.

Soul Mountain Restaurant in Front Royal is an intriguing place, much like a captivating novel that keeps you turning the pages, albeit with a few frustrating pauses.

My parents took me to this place for a lunch and I was pleasantly surprised. I knew from what they had told me the food was going to be good but, WOW! I could not believe the catfish meal. Now understand this wasn’t a place that just fried up a ton of catfish and served it until you got your fill, but 1 large catfish filet excellently prepared true foodies know what I mean…. my mother had the Chicken/steak and cheese and that was an explosion of flavors that way beyond my expectations for chicken. Great Job, I will be back.

On the way home and stopped by for lunch. When we arrived, only the chef in the kitchen and one person working, front of house. I was sure we’d be waiting a while to get our food. I was happily wrong. Service was fantastic and the food was fast and good. As a vegetarian, it’s always nice to see options that don’t seem like after thoughts. I had the black bean wrap. It was so good. Hubby had ribs. They were so good he had a second order

Beautifully decorated low key spot to get delicious soul food. I’m talking SLAAAAMMING homemade recipes. Docs barbecue sauce is a must try, go ahead and take a bottle home with ya. As soon as I saw the menu, I knew I’d be back until I had ordered every dish they offer. Prices are more than reasonable for the size and quality of the meals. Everyone I encountered here was helpful and pleasant. I look forward to the many more stops we will be making here. Don’t miss out on your chance to dine here!!

This is a really cool, fun place. Food and drinks were delicious. Loved the fish taco! Great crab cakes too. Howard took care of us, and made us feel comfortable and welcomed. Festive decore, barrier-free, plenty of parking. We were a party of four and everyone enjoyed their food. Will definitely return!

Visiting from FL to hike Shenandoah National Park on Saturday and stopped here for a bite. I got a burger and the BBQ baked beans. The food was delicious! The atmosphere was great, I loved the decorations. The waitress and the bartender were incredibly friendly, we had some good banter. I’d definitely come back again!

We got the shareable crab and artichoke dip over fries – delicious ! We also ordered the shrimp po boy, and the grilled shrimp basket. For the amount we paid I would’ve liked to see a few more shrimp on the basket, however all items ordered had great flavor. Service was good – no complaints. Would definitely go back. Kid friendly options as well.
