One word...SUPERB. Hubby had a Dr appointment in Canton today. We were hungry once he done and looked on Yelp for a place we'd never tried. Decided that the reviews and pics were tempting and made the decision to stop by. Hadn't visited downtown Canton prior and upon drive up and parking to the restaurant, it presented such a cozy and cute vibe. Upon arrival into Queenie's we were immediately greeted with a smiling face. Didn't get a name but she was super cute, sweet and had red hair. After we were seated, our server Kirsten came quickly and took our drink orders. Looking over the menu, we still were unsure of what to order as everything sounded delicious. So Kirsten gave suggestions and we inserted over those and while we figured out what we were ordering we decided on some appetizers. I got the pork rinds and Hubby got the fried brisket balls. Yum yum yum! Then we both decided on the pulled pork sandwich but he added pimento cheese and the bacon relish with the sweet potatoes. Y'all, those sweet potatoes were soft, sweet and packed with flavor. Chef's kiss! While Kirsten took her break, Emily came to check on us and she was just as sweet and attentive as Kirsten. What a treat! Everyone we came across was so friendly and a pleasure. Even met a lovely couple who were shocked by the large bowl of pork rinds I was attempting to decrease, lol. We only ate half our meal as we were trying to save room for dessert. I ordered the eggnog cheesecake and he ordered the white chocolate peppermint crème brûlée. Honestly the bourbon in the cheesecake took away much of the sweetness but if you take a spoon of crème brûlée with a spoon of cheesecake together it creates a flavor explosion! Hubby added a slice of the Coca Cola cake with coffee and truly enjoyed the flavor of that cake. Needless to say, we have leftovers for tonight's dinner. We definitely plan to return so that we can try more of the menu. Oops I almost forgot the biscuits. THE BISCUITS! How? Who? Where? Are some of what was said when we tried those. LOL They were soft and fluffy inside but crispy and buttery outside and so melt in your mouth delicious! Kudos to whomever created these dishes. Ok, I'm done. If you are looking for somewhere to enjoy Southern cuisine with a twist, this is your place.. read more

A friend that lives in Canton brought us here. I had a wedge salad and pinto beans. My friend had Brunswick stew that I shared in, The food was so good. Beautifully plated. Our waiter "Edwardo" was the best. Great ambiance, exceptional food, great selection of good and an overall great place. read more

Absolutely loved Queenie's! The atmosphere is cozy and stylish, perfect for a night out. I had the pork belly over grits--hands down one of the best meals I've had in a while. The biscuits with bacon jam were incredible too. Cocktails were on point, and our server was super friendly and helpful. Highly recommend if you're in downtown Canton and craving upscale Southern comfort food! read more

I am gonna ask that Queenie's release my grand mother from their kitchen. Talk about Southern comfort food, this is the real deal. From lemon thyme trout to fried chicken and gravy good. I left feeling full from a Sunday dinner at grand moms house. Collard greens, field peas and ice cold drinks in a mason jar. If you can remember those times at the dinner table then this is absolutely the place you need to come dine at. Our waitress was on point, kind and very attentive, thank you Jaime. We will be back to see you and to continue our wonderful conversation. Don't skip on the dessert you'll be sorry if you do I recommend it all. If they tell you to come back do, it's so worth the food and conversation. Come hungry, eat and brag about how good it is. We sure did!!! JUNE 3, 2020- THEY ARE OPEN WITH DINNING IN OPTIONS AND THE BAR!!!! read more

Excellent fried chicken! My wife had the pulled pork sandwich and that was amazing as well. Great atmosphere and amazing friendly service too. read more

Nice atmosphere, good service, and good food. Cornbread was excellent. Pulled pork portion was generous though not as moist and tender as I would have expected though nice balance of inner meat and burnt outer sections for added smoked flavor. Very good selection of homemade sauces. Overall, enjoyable and I'll be back. read more

The downtown Canton area is chock full of coole eateries. On my last night in town I ended up at Queenie's. It sound like a sandwich shop but it's a high-end Southern comfort bbq joint. It's owned by the same guy that owns a few other local restaurants including Goin' Coastal next door. I sat at the bar and Nick, the bartender, was an absolute pro. I started with a healthy pour of Basil Hayden bourbon over a large ice cube (a perfect mixer). Nick recommended a pork belly appetizer, served over grits with a mustard and sorghum glaze. Just amazing and quite filling. For my entree, I had the Thursday brisket special, pecan smoked, served with Brussels sprouts and Redneck lasagna. What's redneck lasagna? It's a bowl of Mac n cheese, topped with Bill's Brunswick stew. What's Bill's Brunswick stew? It's a beef and pork and corn mixture with the consistency of, well, a bowl of stew. The brisket was amazing, with a great smoke ring, thick bark and fork tender. The sprouts were quite good but unremarkable. The lasagna was hands down amazing. I could not come close to finishing. This place is top notch. read more

Queenie's - Pork chop.. I think that this was God's favorite pig... - Southern Near Me - Canton, Georgia

The price was high and the food was mediocre. Nothing really stood out. Do not recommend it.

#worst customerserviceever! We had a reservation on Saturday night... so we were in no rush, and the mood was good! However, upon our arrival, the hostess tried to tell me that my family reservation of 5 could sit comfortably at a 4-top table. Mind you, this was right in front of the kitchen area with no room to maneuver. If you sat there, you would think you were constantly in the way. I asked to be seated at a larger table so we would be more comfortable and not sitting in the kitchen basically, and she said she wouldn't be able to do that even though I had taken the time to make a reservation, and she sat people ahead of me without a reservation at a table we could have sat at. The customer service was HORRIBLE and unaccommodating/unwilling to assist us. This was a terrible experience, especially since I had elderly people with me, and seating at a 4-top when it is a party of 5 is TOO TIGHT. So instead of sitting somewhere with service like this, we went over to Local on North, where we had a lovely dinner with great food, drinks, and most of all, nice service. I'd suggest everyone do the same. read more

Oh my YUMMINESS! Appetizers that you've only imagined in your dreams! Pork Rinds two feet tall (no lie), Pimento Cheese Bacon Jam (OMG), Brisket, and that's just to start off! Moving on to meals - wow the freshness of home grown veggies, trout, salmon, chicken and more! Each and every dish is so tastefully plated and thought out, it makes dining an exciting event. Service has always been great, location is in a quaint area in downtown Canton, with plenty of shops and grounds to walk about. Ambiance is quaint and well thought out, space is limited so make a reservation and plan to eat well! read more

One of the best restaurants in downtown Canton. The vibe has a warm and cozy feel that's made better by a friendly, informed and attentive wait staff. We've been there many times and each of the dishes we have ordered have been delicious. A few standouts include their fried chicken, pan fried trout and charcuterie boards which go beyond the norm of what most restaurants offer. A great place for a dinner date, but also a great place for lunch. read more

Out of all the downtown Canton restaurants, this one is my favorite. They have very good southern style dishes and side options. The taste and preparation of the food is top notch. Service is always good and pricing reasonable. read more

Went for lunch last week and food/service was great. Went back today for a late lunch and the 1st thing the server said was "How can I help you?" What? She sat us gave lunch menus but came right back and said "I'm sorry I gave you lunch menus but we stop serving lunch at three". We told here it was only 3:10 and we didn't want dinner. She gave us no option so we left for Salty Mule. Queenies website nor menus give any times for lunch. We'll go back but they need to realize how stupid that was read more

Nice atmosphere, excellent food and friendly servers. Deducted a star because of the "rush". The server was nice, helpful and friendly BUT she cleared my husbands plate, which was fine and then brought the check. I was still eating so the server should have shown respect for that. It was distracting and set a tone for hurry up and finish. Restaurant was not busy, we hadn't been there for a long time and they didn't need the table (no one waiting for a table). read more

The server was wonderful! So welcoming and nice. The food was awesome! They even had a homemade hot sauce that I almost died after tasting but was so worth it. My friend asked for an emergency beer after tasting it and the server ran over just in time. Great bbq and southern food. I will definitely be back. read more

This place is beyond unbelievable! Your taste buds will thank you for days. Chicken so tender, it literally melts in your mouth, no knife needed. Pulled pork...again, tender. Shrimp and grits, wow!!! Bacon infused corn bread (what?!?!?). Honestly, I had to rethink posting a review, being selfish and wanting to keep it all to myself.... Get out, put on your mask and come and enjoy the best flavors, service and ambiance Canton has to offer. This place will be standing room only very soon. Highly recommend reservations, just to make sure you can experience this. You will not be disappointed!!! read more

Excellent find! Right in the heart of downtown Canton, Queenie's is super cute and delicious. We were seated quickly and service was very friendly. The biscuits are quite good and the soft butter was perfect. A winning sign for me is that they specify on the menu that they use Duke's mayo. My husband got the smoked chicken salad sandwich - it was really tasty. I got a daily special, chicken and dumplings, and they were very good. I'm super picky about chicken and dumplings...it makes me mad when people try to pass off chicken soup with biscuits on top or sone other equally offensive imposter as chicken and dumplings. These were the real thing. I'd only further thicken them as personal preference. I wish I'd tried the Coca Cola cake. Next time. And the sweet tea is perfect. read more

My husband and I among with my parents had a wonderful anniversary lunch here. Our first time to try the restaurant and I will definitely go back. We tried an appetizer of grilled shrimp with corn and blackeyed peas. Entrees were pulled pork and carolina trout. Yum! Sides around included the really good sweet potato confi and brussel sprouts and greens. Had to try two deserts - banana pudding and chocolate mocha cheesecake. Totally delicious. Our server Emily was an absolute delight. Cheerful and helpful. A great lunch. read more

4 stars. Unique but with the confidence it needs to qualify to be called BBQ. I'll definitely be eating here again read more

Just leaving after our first visit. I had the stuffed pork chop, collard greens and whipped potatoes. Wife had salmon, collards and a side salad, and I also had the black walnut old fashioned. Absolutely impressed! Good was amazing, atmosphere was great, and our server Jess was the best. Very accommodating and had great recommendations read more

First time in and it was SO good - it won't be our last! My daughter got a Mac & Cheese with a side of Brussels sprouts - both so good! I got the pulled pork sandwich with the Dr Pepper sauce and potato salad which were both delicious!! If you like sweet tea, that was also spot on! Our server was wonderful, although I forgot to ask her her name. 10/10! We'll be back! read more

Queenie's - Really excited for her Mac & Cheese and Brussels sprouts! - Southern Near Me - Canton, Georgia

Food was great as was the service definitely will be back. Heck i might just pop in for dessert any time im passing by now!

Very disappointing experience . Poor service with the hostess. Poor service with our waiter. Our Waiter neglected our table throughout our meal. My NY Strip was cooked to order but utterly bland. Pairing bland. Overall seasoning on food was unprofessional over all plates on the table. Careless and a waste of money. read more

Maybe I just ordered wrong, but I chose a special "country fried steak" that was cooked within an inch of its life. I could barely cut through it, let alone chew it. I will say the biscuits and sides (mashed potatoes and summer squash) we're fine. Nothing earth shattering, but fine. The restaurant itself is lovely and the service was good. The server discounted my bill, which was nice. It would have been disappointing to pay $21 for two sides and some little flat biscuits. The butter they serve with the biscuits is very tasty. I do think my food was probably not typical, but it was my experience. read more

Our first visit to this local favorite came unplanned at 5:30 on a Friday night. Our party of 8 were seated within 5 minutes and beat the crowds but a small margin. The dining area was full within 10 minutes. The seating is comfortable with a modern take on southern flair. The lighting is lovely and not overwhelming. The menu was quite unexpected and I found it difficult to decide upon a meal. All the options seemed pleasing. We were served ice water in Mason jars, and upon asking were given biscuits golden brown and soft with butter, mini cornbread muffins as well. The cane sugar butter was just enough sweet. My husband ordered grilled chicken topped with cheese and uncured bacon, potato salad, and coleslaw. He stated all were good but he prefers a multicolored sweeter coleslaw. Our son had a half rack of ribs, yup he insisted lol. There is no kids menu, you must ask for it and your server will recite the options. He clearly didn't order from the kids menu. He had mac n cheese and hand cut fries as sides. He enjoyed all of them and the ribs came apart with little effort. I ordered the shrimp and grits with a side of glazed, roasted brussel sprouts. The grits had a wonderful texture and creaminess and the shrimp were of ample size and tenderness. The brussel sprouts were crispy and tender both, very delicious. I also enjoyed a queenie martini with a gin base and a hint of fruit, perfectly chilled and shaken. We will return. My only negative was pricing. There were no entrees under $17. I would encourage them to offer some smaller, perhaps $15 options as specials etc. read more

Wow! This place would be a strong 4 1/2 star in Atlanta - but in Canton it is a hands down 5 star!! The Brunswick stew is as good as Southern Soul (the gold standard in Georgia) Menu is exceptionally creative and truly Southern Food was all outstanding, superb quality and properly seasoned (lightly) Service and atmosphere (Main Street downtown Canton ) are all perfect. WELL DONE!! read more

This could have been 5 stars. The food was tasty. Only complaint is one small service issue we had. We sat outside and were only people sitting outside. We git our water and ordered drinks. On our servers second visit we ordered biscuits app. After few minutes other 2 tables had people sitting on them and what we noticed is that they received biscuits and cornbread with spread as complimentry bread. We were not offered this bread. Server who brought that out for other tables noticed that we weren't offered the breads and still didn't even bother asking. Don't care about few pieces of breads but the service should be uniform for all customers. Only left 10 percent in tips. read more

I had lunch there with my boyfriend & his hamburger was raw & not medium well. We sent it back twice & it was still raw. How hard is it to cook a hamburger? I would never eat here again & the service was awful too! I would love to show the owner a picture of the raw burger that was served! read more

One word. Devine. However, yelp says I can't leave one word. The food here is simply delicious. The fresh veggies are amazing. Potatoes to die for. I would hiiiiiiighly recommend this place to anyone and everyone. read more

Great food and atmosphere! We have been going to Queenies for years and it never disappoints!

Great ambiance and a nice step up from how barbecue is typically served. Queenie's is consistently good but don't expect it to be budget friendly just because they serve bbq! read more

Came here with family after a memorial service. We had a very large group so we told the restaurant ahead of time that we would like to eat there. They were wonderful to us. They made sure to continuously check on us, make recommendations, kept our drinks filled. I tried the Queenie Martini and it was really yummy! The pulled pork was good, as was the bbq sauce it came with, and the Mac and cheese. The biscuits they brought to us before the meal were cooked perfectly and paired really well with the pimento cheese they brought with it. We appreciate their kindness and great service on what was a hard day for the family as we said "goodbye" to my husband's grandfather. read more

The food is amazingly good and the atmosphere is great. It can be crowded, but the service is always excellent. Everything on the menu is good, but the brisket is always outstanding. Also - be sure to ask about and try the Redneck Lasagna. read more
