Chef-owner Ford Fry has brought his version of New Southern cuisine to Atlanta's trendy Westside. Located in the space that once housed Commune and Sampan, the restaurant has a more casual vibe than its predecessors. The scene sure is cozy but it's the food -shrimp and grits, fried chicken, sweet corn soup and a modern version of chicken and dumplings that changes with the seasons - that has even the most jaded foodie hipster going back for seconds. – – High Marks – "I've never been to a restaurant that could even TRY and compete with my daddy's cheesy grits.

Pimento Cheese and Tomato Soup on a cold, wet day in the ATL

by SteveintheCity

Visited JCT today and had an excellent "Southern" lunch of warm Pimento Cheese on toast and a creamy tomato soup. Great combo on a rainy, dreary day in the ATL. Service was attentive but subdued and very informed/educated about the menu.

Definitely a great business lunch location -- and parking was very easy.

  • Pros: Food Quality, Ambience, Service, Choices

Forgotten Gem

by mmulqueen

Hidden in a location that houses two of Atlanta's finest restaurants (Bacchanalia and Quinones), JCT Kitchen adaquately holds its own among the two stalwarts.

The restaurant is a must-go for fans of New South cusine. DO NOT miss the french fries (yes, I said french fries), and also make room for the rum-soaked coconut cake.

  • Pros: Outstanding take on New Southern Cuisine
  • Cons: Open space makes things a little noisy

Amazing experience!!!

by bestb

I am not very familiar with the southern cuisine but at JCT I had the chance to try some amazing dishes. Besides the fried chicken and shrimp&grits, the short ribs dish was fantastic .Their farm-to-table concept works great: the price is accesible and the quality is high. Little crowded on the weekends but perfect for a night out during the week.

I will definitely go back .

  • Pros: food,service,price

The Details on Jct Kitchen & Bar

When to Go:

Arrive early if you have a hankering for the fried chicken. It's cooked to order and the supply is limited.

The Extras:

The second-floor bar (it's open Tuesday through Saturday) features live music on the weekends, and one of the best views of the Atlanta skyline.
