I took my Son here for his Birthday after leaving the African Museum. The portion size had me looking full before the waiter put the food on the table! Food was amazing as well as the service!
GHETTO but the food is GREATThere was a wait because they were busy and seemingly understaffed. The waiting area is right by the kitchen… ❗️BAD DECISION❗️I hear one waitress talk about how she wants to (blank) somebody up & she doesn’t have time for the (redacted).Another waitress spills a cup of sweet tea coming out of the kitchen and most of the staff walk right by it. One waiter who noticed decided to pick up and move all the ice out of the way of traffic. I referred to him as the super waiter. I wish we had him. Short light skinned and loud. He needs to train the rest of the staff. He was engaging with his tables and very warm.A pregnant woman gets there and possibly got bad take out service and literally tried to start a fight and broke a vase. It took them 15mins to get the Asian lady to clean that up. some of the glass broke in the area of a new born. I guess the aforementioned lady does all the cleaning since she was the same one who cleaned the sweet tea from earlier and now the vase and latter cleaned off our table.We had a rather sizable party, our waiter starts by letting us know that the bill can ONLY be split 3 ways. Also never gave us the first time welcome other tables got.?? The FoodThat cornbread with cinnamon based and butter. Addictive. Mac & Cheese is okay for franchise mac & cheese. Yams were on the money. Crab meat was fresh salmon was perfect shrimp were nice and everything was seasoned to perfection. My plate was called the Carolina Salmon. Sweet Tea is southern and the hostess was very nice.Once the food came out not one complain and not one unhappy person with their meal. Even a few to go containers. Peach cobbler was 3 out of 5. (It was given to me to go as asked but I think it was semi frozen)
It was ok! Some good and some "not so good". Everything looks good..but taste..ehhhh.. I had short ribs..they were tough and drowning in BBQ sauce...that didn't have a good flavor AT ALL... the mac and cheese was decent. I had candied yams...they had way too much nutmeg...almost bitter as opposed to sweet. Now the catfish appetizers was bomb! Great flavor, and fried to perfection! My husband had the fried chicken meal...good flavor too...he had gravy on the side... the gravy was bland as well. The appetizer wings were flavorless too..and tasted like cooked in old grease..I would try it again. But wasn't really impressed.
Had a Sunday lunch here and the food was great. The portion was huge. The complimentary corn bread was so delicious. It was the most delicious cornbread muffin I have ever had!
While visiting DC a friend of mine told me I had to try the food at Carolina kitchen. Food was good, I can't say the same for the service. We got take out and had to keep asking for some the food we orderd over and over again. Some items we wanted to try we just let it go because they were such in a rush, they weren't really paying attention, other than that food was good.
Great atmosphere, staff was hot and cold. My order helper was amazing! My cashier was blah. Food was damnnnnnn good til I found a hair in my potato Salad? my experience overall was good.
Good food and good service
10/10! Great food, great staff if you can get to a Carolina kitchen do it!
Customer service poor!! The servers pick and choose which customers are allowed real silverware versus plastic. I give it a one star mainly for the wait and the fact that the server/host was selective on who gets silverware verses cheap plastic silverware. We asked several times for "real" silver and was given a speech about the pandemic. However the table next to us received silverware without no problems at all. This was my first and last time there. The long wait and lying out shadowed the food in my opinion.
This place is absolutely amazing! Juan was the best server I ever had! His customer service skills are definitely top tier! His service makes me want to come back! The food is spectacular and the cornbread melts in your mouth!!! Thank you for everything Juan!
