    Great home-cooked vegetables! The liver is to die for and the homemade banana pudding is top tier!

    Simone's Kitchen And Cocktails - Waffles

    After enjoying Sunday dinner here previously, we came back to Simone's Kitchen & Cocktails to…read moreexperience their Saturday brunch, and overall, it was another solid visit. We were seated immediately, and our hostess also served as our waitress. Despite wearing multiple hats, she did a great job making recommendations, and every suggestion she made turned out to be a winner. The atmosphere had plenty of energy thanks to a live DJ, giving brunch a fun vibe. My only complaint was the volume. The music was loud enough that it made conversation at our table difficult. To drink, I ordered the It's a Henny Thang, while my wife chose the Rosa Goddess. Both cocktails were excellent and easily among the highlights of the meal. For brunch, we ordered the SKC Salmon Croquettes, Cajun Catfish & Grits, and SKC Chix & Waffles. The Cajun Catfish & Grits was the clear standout. The catfish was crispy, well-seasoned, and paired perfectly with the creamy grits. If you're visiting for brunch, this is the dish I'd recommend first. The Salmon Croquettes were also good. While they didn't quite reach the level of the catfish, they really came alive with a splash of Crystal Hot Sauce, which added just the right amount of acidity and heat. The only disappointment was the Chix & Waffles. The waffles were good but not particularly memorable, and the chicken wings didn't have quite the same wow factor we experienced during our previous visit. Overall, Simone's continues to impress with quality food, creative cocktails, and friendly service. While not every dish hit the same high note, the catfish and grits alone are worth the return trip, and the cocktails were outstanding. Recommendation: Order the Cajun Catfish & Grits, don't skip the cocktails, and if you prefer a quieter brunch, be prepared for the DJ to bring plenty of energy.

    So it's funny because, I think I enjoyed my to-go catfish and okra more than sitting down! To go…read morewas much more crispier and satisfying. Of course catfish is a "muddier" fish type so I expect some graying or pieces not as flavorful, but it was maybe a 6/10 in-restaurant versus 9/10 at home/takeout. Service was average and our waitress was helpful and polite. Music was mostly R&B and a little louder at times depending on the song, but palatable aside from a few unnecessary rap songs that weren't really the vibe for me, personally. Veggies with teriyaki were just okay, and 1/3 of the cup had olive oil base that could have been drained or replaced with more sauce/seasoning. Shrimp was my favorite, 10/10! And those egg rolls! Our mom in law date was made successful from those, definitely .

    I was here a few months ago and I was very favorable of the entire experience. My recent visit on…read more9/29, was a little disappointing. I ordered 10 traditional wings and a side of fried green tomatoes. I requested my wings crispy. They weren't yet again and not only that the wings were absolutely tiny!!! But the fried green tomatoes were excellent!! I really enjoyed them over the wings. The service I received was good just as the time before.

    A friend of mine recommended that I go to J Wings in Birmingham. I was a bit skeptical initially…read morebecause coming across a place that has perfected the art of fried wings is rare. I decided to take him up on it because his talk was convincing. I made a pit stop there driving all the way from Washington, D.C. to Mississippi. Thankfully, it wasn't too far off my route. I thought I was going to walk into a restaurant, but it's actually inside a gas station. So definitely do not expect restaurant ambiance nor vibes. There's nowhere to sit to dine. Strictly carry-out. I ordered the hot lemon pepper wings meal since the staff said it's one of their most popular wings flavor. I must say the wings were not impressive to me. Perhaps I came at a bad night, but it was way too salty for my liking. I knew it would be hot, but it wasn't clearing my sinus type of hot. I know lemon pepper wings will be salty but more tangy due to the lemon flavor. It was so salty, I had to stop eating em. The fries, oddly, were under-seasoned. Thankfully, I had my own salt and added it to my fries so they were saved. The drink I ordered, a lemonade & fruit punch mix, was yummy. Would I go here again? Likely not. The wings were not impressive enough to go all the way to Birmingham. Hopefully, they can improve on the salt balance of the lemon pepper wings.

It was crowded but moved fast. I didn't want fries so I ordered a combo that came with 5 wings , veggie fried rice and a drink. The wings are small , which I'm cool with but when they give you five, it's not as filling. The veggie fried rice was ok. It was plentiful but lacked flavor to me. Despite the wings being small , they were seasoned nicely. The inside is still closed for business so the drive thru is the only option. The staff was cool. Accommodating. This isn't my top wing spot in the area but it's decent.

    We decided to come here since it was near where my car was getting fixed. I saw several yelp…read morefriends had reviewed, and I knew I could trust their opinions and reviews. This place was packed! There was always a line in the drive-they, and always someone in line outside! Most everyone was getting food to go (some individual orders; some large pans of wings). We went with the 12 wing combo... that came with fries and a drink. The wings were ok.... not the best; not the worst. I got the BBQ wings which were a little sweet for my personal preference. My husband got the lemon pepper wings... the one I tried was too sour! I'd come here again if I'm in the area, but I probably won't make a special trip to eat here again.
