    Incredible experience for our Sunday brunch. The live band was so soothing and made for a wonderful ambience. The food was spectacular from the basket of biscuits and corn muffins to the main courses. Can’t wait to go back again

    Went for Mother’s Day an found out they had a fixed menu for Mother’s Day that was priced at $70 per person with no option to order individually menu items. Very over priced for fixed menu items. Service was slow and food was just ok.
    South City Kitchen AvalonResponded on May 13, 2025
    Thank you for spending Mother’s Day with us and for sharing your honest feedback. We’re sorry to hear the fixed menu and pricing didn’t meet your expectations, and we understand how frustrating it can be to have limited options on a special occasion. We also regret that the service was slow and the food didn’t stand out—it’s certainly not the experience we aim to deliver. Your comments have been shared with our team so we can make thoughtful improvements moving forward. We truly appreciate your input and hope we can provide a better experience in the future.

    I’ll give grace for a very busy Mother’s Day brunch, The service was good, but the food at this longstanding Atlanta stalwart was not up to the fixed menu prices.

    The food came out after waiting for at least 30 minutes and was cold and overcooked. Extremely disappointing
    South City Kitchen AvalonResponded on May 13, 2025
    We’re truly sorry to hear about your experience. Waiting that long and then receiving food that was cold and overcooked is far from the standard we aim to provide. We understand how frustrating and disappointing that must have been, and we sincerely apologize. Your feedback has been shared with our kitchen team so we can address the issue and ensure it doesn’t happen again. We’d be grateful for the chance to make it right if you choose to visit us again.

    The food and quality of service was good. It was very incredibly slow to get our drinks and food. It took 2 hours for drinks and a main course. It took 25 mins to get ketchup. It took 10 mins to get a new napkin. The food tasted great and our waiter was so nice and helpful. It was so slow of meal.

    It was really good. Fun to find such southern menu choices. I’m mean, who makes succotash today?! I had the chicken Caesar salad and don’t remember having a better one. The food was a little slow coming out, but that was our only issue. Yum. Thank you.
    South City Kitchen AvalonResponded on May 13, 2025
    Thank you so much for the great feedback! We’re delighted you enjoyed the Southern menu—succotash is a favorite of ours, and we love hearing it was a fun surprise. We're also thrilled the chicken Caesar salad hit the mark! We appreciate your patience with the food timing and will certainly keep working on that. Hope to see you again soon for more good eats!

    The service was excellent from start to finish. I had a salad with a side of fried chicken. My husband had fried chicken with hand cut fries. The meal was delicious. Only negative - have the portions gotten smaller? Anyway, it was a great experience.
    South City Kitchen AvalonResponded on May 19, 2025
    Thank you for sharing your experience with us! We're so glad to hear that you and your husband enjoyed the meal—especially the fried chicken and hand-cut fries—and that our team provided excellent service from start to finish. We also appreciate your honest feedback about portion sizes and will be sure to pass that along to our kitchen team. It’s great to know that overall you had a wonderful time, and we look forward to welcoming you back soon!

    Gave a fair for service because the waitress was very good but the kitchen service very poor because there was a kitchen worker that could be seen from the open kitchen with no hairnet and shaking her hair over the counter where she was preparing food. This same kitchen worker was seen on her phone and scratching her scalp in the kitchen where the food was being prepared. She also had on no gloves and not one time did she wash her hands.

    Thank you for your feedback and for recognizing the great service provided by your waitress. However, we’re deeply concerned about your observations regarding food safety in our kitchen. What you described does not align with our standards or health protocols, and we take these matters seriously. We are immediately addressing this incident with our kitchen staff to ensure strict adherence to hygiene and safety practices. If you're open to it, we would appreciate the opportunity to speak with you directly to learn more and make things right. Please feel free to contact us and request to speak to a manager to discuss.
