I had the pleasure of dining at Southern Soul on Demere Road during my recent visit to St. Simons Island, Georgia, and I must say, it exceeded all my expectations! From the moment I arrived, I was greeted with warm Southern hospitality. Now, let's talk about the food – it was nothing short of exceptional. I couldn't resist trying their famous pulled pork sandwich, and it was a flavor explosion in every bite. The meat was tender, smoky, and paired perfectly with their homemade selection of BBQ sauces. Fries were great, slaw was outstanding and I loved their fried okra. The portion sizes were generous, leaving me completely satisfied - stuffed! To wash it all down, I indulged in some sweet tea, which was the perfect complement to my meal. Southern Soul certainly knows how to make an authentic Southern meal complete. The service at Southern Soul was impeccable. The staff was attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable about the menu, providing recommendations and ensuring that my dining experience was top-notch. Their commitment to customer satisfaction was evident throughout my visit. Southern Soul on Demere Road is more than just a restaurant; it's a true Southern culinary experience. The combination of delicious food, welcoming atmosphere, and exceptional service makes this place a must-visit for anyone traveling to St. Simons Island. Sitting outside watching the planes land is a fun added bonus. I can't wait to return on my next trip to Georgia. If I could give it more than 5 stars, I would!
This has to be what I would classify as an icon. Wow, just plain wow. Parking was a challenge, but I understand why. We went inside and ordered at the counter and were immediately able to find a seat inside, which was ideal since we had an infant. The decor was mind-blowing because it really highlighted all the awards for the restaurant. The food was out of this world. I've eaten BBQ all across the country. This is the absolute best brisket I've ever eaten. It tops Pappy's in St. Louis. The brisket melts in your mouth, and the flavor is unexplainable. Pulled pork was excellent, and our friend was blown away by the turkey. My wife says this was the best Brunswick Stew she has ever eaten. It was out of the way for our trip, but we all agreed it's worth traveling here just for this food. Just plain wow. I could not recommend this anymore. 10 put of 5. Visited the gift shop afterward and was worth it!!!!! Parking: Parking is a challenge because the restaurant is so popular. I drove around for about 10 mins or more, waiting for someone to leave. I finally got a spot, but this is the only downside to this place.
From the minute we walked in, the overwhelming smell of barbecue permeated the air. With every bite of the pulled pork and the beef brisket, we barely could contain our taste buds, as savory piece was incredible. The brisket was slightly charred and the taste had a ligh smokey taste. The pulled pork virtually melted in my mouth, as I could not put down my fork. It was a delight to go there.
The food was amazing. My girlfriend and I made a special trip to this restaurant after playing golf and it did not disappoint. We were lucky enough to grab a seat at the bar or else there would have been a wait. We ordered the bbq sampler plate pictured and it was delicious. We also ordered Brunswick stew which was equally delicious. The guy sitting next to me ordered brisket stew I think which he said is better than the Brunswick stew. To each their own.
Outstanding food! Highlights: 1. Great quality meats and sides. Note: Brunswick Stew actually originated in Brunswick, Va. - not GA. As such, the stew here is a bit different- more meaty and spicy - but still good. Beef brisket was excellent— a tiny bit fatty for the price- nevertheless- it’s good. 2. Piping hot and fresh food! 3. Helpful and polite employees Opportunities: 1. Limited Seating 2. Somewhat limited hours - as of this writing, 11am-7pm daily and closed Tuesdays. 3. No kids menu & a bit pricy- but this is a coastal area. Definitely worthy of 5 stars, though!
Do not go, unless you want overpriced and overrated food. Waited over an hour for our food and was average at best. My son ordered the soul burger and this is what we got, looks nothing like the picture. My son said he should have just gone to five guys. Would have been faster and better. Was told they would give us sauce on the side for ribs, pointed out there wasn’t any sauce, and staff gave me attitude that they put sauce with order. When we returned to our condo, no sauce. There were other concerns as well. This place is just a tourist trap to take your money and serve you average food. There are plenty of other places better on St. Simmons.
We tried this place today for the first time and were delighted! The BBQ is truly smoked pork and the fries are hand cut - Nothing greasy, just great flavors. This place should not be missed when visiting St. Simons Island. Be sure to enjoy your meal under the tent where you can watch the small planes land at the airport!Food: 5/5
First time in St. Simons! Stopped here for lunch once we got in town. The grilled pimento cheese sandwich was “obviously” delicious! Potato salad is a perfect mix of Dijon and Mayo. The hush puppies with the house-made honey mustard is superb! To top it all off, our bartender Sophie gave us 5 Star recommendations to other places around the island to make our anniversary trip more memorable. 10/10 recommend Southern Soul BBQ!
Awesome place! Excellent food. Fast and friendly. Terrific Service! Go there! You won't leave hungry!Food: 5/5
Best bbq in the area! Unassuming seating area inside and out. Outside has a view of ssi airport runway. Counter order then they bring it to your table. Enjoyed our pulled pork sandwiches and sides of fries, beans and slaw. Hot bbq sauce has an excellent spicy punch if you like that.Recommended dishes
