   Excellent choice for a first date. Sound level was a little loud for my taste, however it meant we could talk freely without worrying about being overheard. The food was great, as always.

   Friendly and attentive service. A very nice choice for a date night Uptown. The side salad with green goddess dressing was very good, and the chicken and rice was very savory...better than expected. The shrimp and grits were a tad too spicy. Some new entree choices would be nice. We finished with the coconut cake, which was awesome and beautifully presented in a pool of something like sweetened condensed milk.

   I really enjoyed the food at King's Kitchen. The blackened catfish was perfectly cooked, and the fried chicken was delicious. The service was friendly and made the experience fun.

   First time at King’s Kitchen and it was definitely a great experience! Johnny our waiter was very attentive and checked with us often. Actually the entire staff was professional, cordial and pleasant. The food was wonderful - cooked to perfection and so delicious. We will definitely be returning!

    Quick dinner prior to Charlotte Knights ballgame. Creative, tasty fare flawlessly prepared and delivered at a relaxed pace but still sufficient to make the first pitch. Server Alfonso was pleasant, accommodating and quite polished. Great date night with wife and friends. MKF

    This space was nice and I love the mission. Just hated the limited menu and small portions. I also didn’t know they didn’t serve alcohol but that’s understandable given the non-profit status.

    I’ve been coming to King’s Kitchen since 2011. I’m upset about the roast missing from the menu, the new sweet potatoes could be seasoned and prepared better, the strawberry lemonade was missing the strawberries. (I think they have resorted to using a strawberry gel/syrup now instead of real strawberries like they used to). Definitely missing the bbq sauce for the fried chicken. Cream corn and cabbage needs to be added back to the menu, as well as the flounder. Other than that everything else was A-1. King’s Kitchen has been my favorite restaurant to attend for events when visiting Charlotte as well as my number one recommendation when asked where would I eat. The menu changes have hurt.

    Kings Kitchen executes southern comfort food as well as anyone. Service was excellent. The pleasant weather allowed the windows to be wide open for a comfy dinner. Lots of other Charlotte FC fans had the same idea. Highly recommend for mid-price pre-game dinner.

    A perfect pre-theater dinner experience! The shrimp and grits were wonderful -- even if a little spicier than I was expecting-- and the cheeseburger satisfied my daughter's craving. The noise level felt a little louder than "energetic" at times but not enough to make conversation impossible. Will definitely be back!

    The only problem I had was when we tried to get a table just by walking in they said it would be a two hour wait. None of the staff told us we could reserve a table on open table. We actually went to another restaurant and looked on open table ourselves and saw they had a reservation open in the next 20mins. So we reserved the table and went back. It would have been so much easier if the staff had directed us to make a reservation from the beginning. I feel like y’all lose a lot of money by not directing customers to the site and telling them it would be a 2-3 hour wait for the next available table when there was open reservation slots.

    We had a birthday luncheon here. They were short staffed but very open about it. Our waitress was lovely, very sweet and accommodating. The chicken sandwich was really good though the bun was cold. The grilled catfish was delicious. The fried chicken was authentic southern prepared. They brought my daughter a complementary banana pudding for dessert that was amazing.

    Compliments to the chef! Our meals -chicken, trout, and smothered steak - were delicious. Carrie provided her usual excellent service. The noise level was definitely energetic, which lessened our enjoyment somewhat. But it was great to see so many people having so much fun!

    Went to dinner before the Billy Joel concert. Computer difficulties made it hard to get seated and again to check out, but the food, wine and service were superb! I can’t wait to go back when we’re not rushed for time. Such a great concept and perfectly executed!

    The food and service were outstanding. The biscuits - honestly, I would go there and just eat the biscuits for a whole meal if that wasn’t weird. The other food we ordered was delicious and exciting to eat. The location is great and every detail in the decor is well planned and executed, just like the menu. I’m not from Charlotte, but will definitely come again the next time I’m in town.

    From the moment we sat down, Ann(waitress) took exceptional care of us. Her personality and her knowledge of the menu and the food was awesome. The food didn’t disappoint. The three of us tried each other’s food and everything was scrumptious. I look forward to returning.
