Good Eats in the City

by Jerrold at Citysearch

I've been a fan of South City Kitchen since my date and I visited after my Senior Prom. (Yes, that long) Once a regular, I hadn't really dined there in sometime before last night... but I was pleased to know that the formula hadn't changed.

SCK consistently provides a wonderful dining experience. They continue a tradition of innovative food with simple, high quality ingredients. And while some may question certain dishes, you can always be certain you'll have a wholesome, well-prepared, elegantly presented meal served by one of the best waitstaffs in the city.

Favorites: Crab Cake appetizer

Jambayla

Fried Chicken (unbelieveably juicy)

Banana Pudding

(the biscuits and corn muffins are to die for, too)

I've been recommending South City Kitchen to family and friends for well over 10 years... and will continue to do so.

• Pros: Consistancy, Waitstaff, Atmosphere
• Cons: Deck Parking

Great Dining Experience

by GL4848 at Citysearch

My date and I went to South City Kitchen before seeing a show at the Alliance Theater. We were greeted at the door by a friendly host who took us immediately to our table. Our server quickly came to introduce herself and explained the menu for the evening. My dish was the Shrimp and grit and was just awesome. My date also enjoyed his meal as much. The manager of the restaurant came by to visit us to ensure that our dining experience was going well. I really liked the fact that everyone there was so professional and just as friendly. I highly recommend the South City Kitchen.

A fabulous experience

by Xeones at Citysearch

We visited SCK for dinner. For an appetizer we ordered the fried green tomatoes, which were the best we have had in Atlanta. For dinner we had Fried chicken with the Bourbon gravy and Chicken and Dumplings. Both dishes were fantastic!

The service and ambience were both terrific, very attentive waitstaff coupled with a lovely decor.

Defintely one of the finer establishments in Atlanta.

• Pros: Everything about the place.
• Cons: Too far away from where we live!

The best food I have had in a while

by rt112 at Citysearch

South City Kitchen has the best food ever, we are quite discerning in our taste for food and this restaurant is by far, the most flavorful food we have had in a while! The salmon, to die for...the fried green tomatoes- not too oily, just perfect! And the white chocolate bread pudding was just right! Please, do trythis restaurant out, it has plenty of personality and lots of flavor to the food. The service was just right, not too overbearing but always there when you needed her. One of our best finds in midtown Atlanta.

• Pros: Great service, flavorful food
• Cons: Absolutely, emphatically, none.

Revised Review! Always On Target & Streisand!

by jaymaygm at Citysearch

We've been dining here since the establishment opened. Whether it's dinner or brunch, it's always the buttermilk fried chicken, crabcakes, and bisque. It dosen't get any better. Service is a little moody at times, and the interior needs to be freshened up. But the food is the draw. And "Babs" had the Buttermilkfried Chicken, prior to her concert 11/2/06.

• Pros: Buttermilk Fried Chicken! Very Nice Patio!
• Cons: Moody Service At Times! Needs Interior Makeover!

Never Disappointing

by sschinadoll at Citysearch

I have dined at South City Kitchen on many occasions, whether it be brunch, business lunch, dinner, and am "wowed" by their service and food quality time after time. It has now become a regular place for entertaining out-of-town visitors or grabbing a bite before hitting the Fox or the High. The Sauteed Shrimp & Scallops over Grits is the best in the city, and the Fried Green Tomatoes are ALWAYS a hit- even with our friends from the North... :)

• Pros: Efficient Staff, Friendly Service, Good Wine List

Great Southern Cuisine

by Nekia at Citysearch

This place is really nice. The food is outstanding and drinks are well made. Keep in mind, it can get very loud. If you're looking for a quiet romantic restaurant to get to know someone, pick another restaurant. BUT! If you don't mind raising voice and laughing out loud in a somewhat upscale environment, this is the place for you.

• Pros: Food, Ambience
• Cons: Noisy
