    South City Kitchen - Vinings is a busy restaurant. The food is great southern cuisine and the restaurant is typically very busy. We had a new waiter who was very good, but was still learning. My only critique is the noise level; if you want to have a quiet conversation, it can be difficult. That said, again the food is excellent, the environment active, and the service is superior!

    Th food was delicious. I hope our server is better typically than how she was. She dogo to bring the water my husband ordered. She brought bread to the table midway thru our meal, and when we asked for the dessert menu she brought the bill instead. It was our 26th anniversary so we drove somewhere else to buy donuts to celebrate! 😉 We’ll be back for food but hope for better service.

    The $56 New York strip was not even on par with Long Horns; it was fatty and overcooked. Additionally, the asparagus was undercooked. The She Crab Soup was our appetizer, and it was the best part of the meal, but it was not as good as the She Crab soup that Nordstroms serves. The other members of our party (3 in total) described their meals (fried chicken and trout) as underwhelming. Given their crazy high price points and inferior product quality, I would highly recommend that folks pass on this restaurant. Part 2 of the review! Someone from the restaurant quickly responded to my feedback and really expressed a desire to understand more about our experience at South City Kitchen. They asked great questions about our dinner and seemed very sincere with their apology. I was beyond impressed by their concern regarding our feedback and will give them another chance to deliver a better dining experience. Kudos to the leadership of this restaurant for taking guest feedback as a gift !

    Marielle is a great waiter/host for SCK in Vinings! She knows the menu and can make suggestions. Very attentive and positive! Food was absolutely fabulous from appetizers, main dishes and dessert. A great place to eat and we need to visit more often. Thank you for a great experience.

    We had a very nice brunch to celebrate my son’s birthday! They reached out ahead of time to get his name so they could help celebrate. They had an envelope with a birthday wish inside along with a free dessert, very nice! I had the malted Belgian waffle and it was very good. My husband had the fried chicken and it was tasty as well. Overall we enjoyed our visit. We would return!
