“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.“

“Best burger joint you could ever want! Keeping it simple! They don't try to oversell or over hype what they do and what they do, they do flawlessly! It's a top recommendation by students and parents at Bama for a reason and we love every damn bite!!! Music was phenomenal and I was trying to Shazam in between devouring insanely tasty fries! The burgers are the best I've ever had and the flavor choices with their freaking ridiculous and addicting sauce......... What?! Absolutely amazing!!!!“

Jackie's Lounge Bar • $

“We were at the game this past weekend and we had the BEST experience at Jackie’s. We parked a little far away for my elderly father to be able to walk all the way and stopped to get some drinks and find a taxi or shuttle service. Everyone was so nice to us and helped us find a ride the rest of the way to the stadium. They were so helpful and kind and you can tell they truly love what they’re doing and love to see folks walking by. They’re a joy to be around and we’ll definitely plan to stop in the next time we’re in town! Thank you! 🖤❤️🤍“

Chicken Tenders

“My FAVVVV go-to BAR in Tuscaloosa on Game Day!! Thank God we got there before they started charging cover because it was $40 per person when playing Texas ? Which is absolutely absurd. We couldn't even go upstairs for free after eating downstairs and getting there early.. But whatever. Still my favorite bar. They have the best fries and can't go wrong with traditional chicken fingers! Will always visit when in T-Town! And we also had the cutest bartender, Sarah? I think lol ?“
