South City Kitchen Avalon

This was an EXCELLENT lunch. The waiter was amazing from the minute he greeted us. I will definitely be revisiting this location.

Usually the food is well prepared and delicious, but for some reason today our she-crab soup was barely warm and thick tasting. My salmon was good, but all I got was broccoli with it and that was not hot...ugh... for the price a small bit of potato/corn something with starch to go with it.
Service was great...wonderful waiter.

All five of us all did not enjoy the food all for different reasons. I would say who ever is running the kitchen is not doing a good job. Most of us had our food over cooked. My son had french fries with his grilled chicken and even those were mixed between uncooked and cooked fries. Everyone was friendly but the food is not great.

South City Kitchen is located in The Avalon Autograph Marriott Hotel. Lively atmosphere. Good Southern Style Food.

Anniversary

Zach is outstanding and did a great job serving us.

Went for valentine's 2020 it was fantastic!

I Love this locations ambiance ,food and great customer service .I live in Snellville and anytime I can get op to Alpharetta I make sure I I stop my South City Kitchen.To too off my B day Celebration I was assisted by Steven.He was very polite,attentive and gracious with our experience today. I appreciated his attention detail in keeping and eye on us and keeping the table clear through appetizer and dinner. We never had to look for him or call for him.He was completely on point which in the end was a Perfect night ..

Great meal. Service was the best. Ask for Kam.

Food and service was excellent. This is my favorite location of SCK!

Everything was amazing. The food, service and drinks were great!

16th Anniversary

Awesome porkchop!!

Nice restaurant in Avalon. Prices are good without being crazy. Valet parking was nice too.

Great experience at SCK Avalon. The food was great, and the service as well. We'll be back again!

Sat at the bar and ate dinner
Drinks and food and service were great

The food was ok , at that price point I would expect quantity and quality to be better. The ambiance was great and a really nice place to bring your date or wife . Service was superb but would probably not return to dine Hope you can improve and someone gives a better review to change my mind.

Felipe was an exemplary server, and the food was delicious.

I selected South City Kitchen for dinner with a business associate based on how well I liked the mid-town South City kitchen. The Avalon restaurant has a much newer feel than the midtown location, but just as good menu. Convenient location that is local to office, I'll be back.

Birthday dinner for our middle son (24) and ALL SUPERB as always! You can’t go wrong with South City Kitchen. Make it a go-to for any occasion or just a great meal for no special occasion!

Had a lovely birthday dinner, the service, food and ambiance were all outstanding!

Connie was an informed and attentive server. Food was its usual excellence in taste, proportion and choice. Great restaurant and location. Thank you!!!

The food was great, and our server did an excellent job keep track with us during the meal. Wonderful atmosphere and location!

The resturant was very nice. The waitress was outstanding. The value, not so much. Close to $100 for two, one of whom only had 3 veggie sides. Oh yeah, the biscuits are to die for.

Everything on the menu looked yummy. The butternut squash dumplings were very tasty. Host and wait staff were very professional and accommodating.

Great place and dinner! Love that chicken!!!!

Great service from time entering the restaurant with the hostess to dinner with our server, however a little disappointed in the food this time. Tried something new, maybe should have stuck with the fried chicken. Was as pretty cold in the restaurant, perhaps because it wasn’t very full.

Wonderful lunch with an excellent server!

The restaurant was dark and the ambiance quite noisy. In addition, the food was average at best. Both my business associates were not happy with their meal and my salmon was very overcooked.

I doubt I will bring guests to South City Kitchen any time soon!!

Had a great time celebrating my daughters birthday. We had the fried green tomatoes which were delicious! We had the fried chicken, shrimp and grits, trout, skirt steak and pork chop. All were very good. The pork chop was wonderful, seasoned perfectly and very tender. The fried grits croutons on the Caesar salad were a big hit. Our server, Amy was great!

Any is amazing ! Best service ever !!

Wednesday night gathering with some local friends.
They both enjoyed their fried chicken entrees.
My mountain trout dish was very good.
My wife’s steak entree was much less than the requested medium.

I love this place, can be good for a date or business dinner or friends dinner
Pricy. But food is good, I wish there were more vegetarian options! Corn bread is to die for, crab cake was yummy as advised by the server.

EXCELLENT FOOD! EXCELLENT SERVICE! SOUTH CITY KITCHEN IS A MUST!!!!!

Asked for a nice table on the reservation notes and they gave us the opposite of a nice table. It wasn’t a table consistent with having a reservation. It was a table that you get when walk in on a busy night. It was in center by the kitchen when there was a whole room in the back of much nicer tables. The lighting was so harsh we could barely read the menu. Overall very disappointed that I specifically asked for a nice table when I made the reservation, they selected such a poor location to seat us

Many nice restaurants choices in Avalon but this is not one of them.

I always feel compelled to leave a review when a restaurant hits my personal trifecta of ambience, great food and outstanding service. South City Kitchen hit all 3 last Friday night. From the moment we walked in the door, I knew this was to become a favorite. The entrance blends into the lobby of Hotel Avalon to the left. The bar was packed, but off to the side so the noise was contained. We were seated at a table by a window and not in one of the larger rooms. Ambience – check. Our waitress, Chi Chi, introduced herself and immediately wished us a Happy Anniversary. What do you know – the wait staff actually reads the boxes we check when making a reservation with OpenTable! Chi Chi was the best. I have a somewhat sarcastic and dry sense of humor, but Chi Chi picked right up on it and soon we were like old friends. Service – check. Now, I was afraid. I was thinking of all the times excellent service took the place of great food. Not here! We both had the she crab soup; it rivaled anything I have ever had in Charleston. My wife had the deliciously huge portion of shrimp and grits, while I went with Chi Chi’s recommendation of the fried chicken. I was not disappointed as it was fantastic! That is saying something considering how much fried chicken this Atlanta native has eaten in his lifetime. Food – check. Trifecta met, review forthcoming. Shortly after dinner, the manager, Ryan, stopped by to also wish us a Happy Anniversary. We started talking and found out that not only is he a Sommelier, but I went to school with his aunt (don’t do the math - it is not pretty).

When we go out to dinner, we usually stick to our favorites. We decided to try something new, and we wound up with another favorite. They will be seeing a lot more of us!

As always..... exceptional food and service!

I went to South City Kitchen in Vinnings with some friends for Thanksgiving! The meal was delicious and the ambience great. One of my friends had the Springer Farms Fried Chicken that day and I tried some. It was the best fried chicken I had ever eaten. The food just melted in my mouth.
Unfortunately Avalon South City Kitchen has the ambience of a hotel lobby. Thats fine. Ambience is nto something I care about much if the food is great. I immediately decided to eat Springer Farms Fried Chicken. Unfortunately Avalon's Springer Farms Fried Chicken was not that good at all. The breading tasted sour and the meat was a bit dry. This branch is dragging the good name of South City Kitchen down!

Consistent! Food, Service and Ambiance are spot on! Love the valet option!
