    Fried Crawfish Tails with sauce
    Marcia D.

    My 1st time in Augusta Ga, and I was looking for shrimp and grits. I came upon this restaurant and decided to check it out. There's plenty parking, and when you walk up to the entrance, there is sign that lets you know you should seat yourself. When I walked in, there was a bar and people sitting there, so I walked to the back where I could sit outside and enjoy the beautiful weather. There were plenty of tables with umbrellas and you could sit anywhere. On the tables were menus, condiments and paper towels. I sat there for a while and then the server came and took my order. She was pleasant and friendly and that helped with the meals that I ordered. For apps for what they call "serious snacks", I chose the fried crawfish tails, the bayou shrimp and grits cup. I also ordered the half dozen steamed oysters. From the Tuesday special menu, I ordered the Buffalo grilled shrimp and the Blackberry Jalapeño Margarita, with a side of dirty rice. The crawfish was small, but tasty. They were fried but not greasy. It was served with what seems like their signature sauce. What I went for? The shrimp and grits! Now that did not disappoint at all. I'm glad they had it in a small cup bc at least I got to sample more items on the menu without overwhelming myself. The shrimp was seasoned gracefully and the grits were creamy. I didn't even need butter, salt or sugar. I've never had steamed oysters and they were very good. They came with butter but I didn't like it on the oyster, so I ate it with the cocktail sauce and the horseradish and it was delicious. After having all of that I still wanted to try the buffalo grilled shrimp and dirty rice. I was overwhelmed bc my stomach was stuffed. I definitely thought I could handle them. Honestly, I didn't care for these last two items. The dirty rice was a bit hard and the shrimp was to salty and made it hard for me to eat them continuously. But the other stuff, delicious. Even the cocktails. It was so good, I had two. I would definitely go back to try other items on their menu.

    The food here is good! Especially the crawfish tails! The shrimp and fried oysters were good too. I came in hungry and left full. Somehow I managed to have left overs. It does get busy during dinner and when the weather is nice, grab a seat on the outside.

    This was our first time here, and we were thoroughly impressed. The atmosphere is incredibly relaxed and inviting. Our waitress was exceptional--extremely friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable about the menu. We received excellent recommendations and had a fantastic dining experience. The food was perfectly seasoned and delicious. We're definitely planning to return.

    Great fried shrimp platter. Shrimp tasted ocean fresh and were fried perfectly. Fries were on spot.

    We were put onto this place through a couple friends and we haven't stopped talking about it since…read more Natta and Angie were so incredibly welcoming and sweet. If you've never been there, they will start you out with samples of all of their lemonade (which all of them are incredibly flavorful) and you'll inevitably get one because it's THAT good. The staff comes with recommendations to help you navigate the menu and they are so attentive and helpful. I'd go as far to say that they had some of the best service in Augusta. Now to the food, 10/10 I could not recommend them enough. I've had the honey lemon pepper wings and the loyalty platter. And it was so good. The honey lemon pepper wings were full of deep flavor and they give you at-least 10 wings with the plate. The steak and shrimp are the best seasoned meats I've ever had at a restaurant. I've also had a few nibbles of their seafood and ‍. Then when you're ready for dessert, don't worry you get samples too. The blue velvet is my favorite but all of them are award winning so you can't go wrong when it comes to Nattas sweet treats. Over all, great experience, great people, and great place. Get out and support local, it'll never disappoint. P.S. if you think it's pricey, you're wrong. You get what you pay for here. You get no less than two meals out of one plate.

    Every Queen needs a King and you can seduce your palete at Kitchen Kings x Natta's Sweet Bakery…read more After hearing amazing things about Kitchen Kings food and their favorable turn out at the Foodie Event, I stopped in and had a Surf N Turf Platter - Honors Platter with perfectly seasoned grilled Salmon & Shrimp over Dirty Rice with Mac N Cheese & Green Beans. The portion sizes are generous and very tasty. I made a Southern Palmer with their Peach Tea and Unsweetened Ice Tea 1/2 & 1/2 of both mixed together, was the perfect beverage to pair with the Honor Platter. I finished the honorable meal with The Strawberry Velvet Cake Brownie & Red Velvet Brownie dessert pairing. The service from when I stepped in, while eating and leaving was exceptional, inviting and very pleasant. Shurell was fabulous, vibrant and a fresh of breath air. I highly recommend Kitchen Kings x Natta's Sweet Bakery to discover Augusta's Hidden Gem off Gordon Hwy. The Ambiance was the perfect R&B Vibe for a casual, sexy Saturday. The music Playlist was the perfect R&B garnish to the entire dining experience. I will be back for their Low Country Boil & the wonderful Strawberry Velvet Cake. Kings Kitchen x Natta's Sweet Bakery will not disappoint you. In fact, it will make ypur day better. Please honor my review and take a taste for yourself today and dine like a King or Queen mixed with sweetness from the Bakery.

We split a half dozen oysters to start and they were perfect. We chose to enjoy 3 of two types of the oysters from their selection. I could've easily had many more. We made the decision to split three of the dishes off the snacks at the top of their menu, which was plenty enough for two of us to share along with the oysters. We had the chicken thighs which were juicy and full of flavor. The brussels sprouts with the goat cheese and balsamic glaze was a combination of flavors and texture that were absolutely beautiful. I finished the evening with an adorable birthday dessert, which was a candy bar like dish with Nutella ice cream. The sparkler candle was so cute. We cannot wait to come back to enjoy more oysters, great food, and amazing service. A huge shout out to Nick for helping us make this evening amazing.

    From the moment we walked in it felt like a fine dining experience. Not your average brunch. No…read moresir! Starting with our drinks, we both had coffee-which I would return for the coffee alone! It was bold, curious, mysterious and honestly had me asking for the name of the coffee before I left! We had a server in training, so two servers! Both were outstanding! Quick to refill our drinks and remove plates that were empty. The food.....let me just say I not only spoke with management, I also was able to speak with the head chef to give my praise. I am not one to sing false praise, trust me. When I tell you I have never, ever, had a brunch as delicious as his!!! I am a French toast connoisseur, and his was a 12/10! There was not one bite of food that wasn't outstanding. I was truly impressed, with his creativity and his attention to detail because it shined like a diamond from the front of house all the way down to the sweet lady filling the cakes when I was taking my pictures for this review! "Let me get it all full and pretty now before you get those pictures!" I mean, if she wasn't just the sweetest thing, and took 100% pride in her work. Same with the gentleman working the omelet station. He came in the day before to prep the fish (which is a long day of work!) The love they put into each dish truly shines through effortlessly! With permission, personally, I would suggest they rename their Sunday Brunch to "Soul-filled Sunday Brunch" because #1 I left ready to go to sleep! #2 I had a religious experienced during that meal, in blessings and dining I have only ever had at Church Potlucks! #3 It elevated some fancy and some common foods to such heights, I was expect to be hearing gospel music while I ate! #4 Personally, I hope heaven's banquet table is much like today's-full of love, flavor and most importantly-community! Everyone from other diners enjoying their brunch to servers, sous chefs to the top man himself-not one person wasn't smiling from ear to ear. It's been near a decade since I've seen that many smiling people all in one place! While I will have to limit how often I come for Brunch lest my clothes start shrinking! Edgar's by far, takes the trophy for elevated dining experiences in Augusta, Ga! Best of all, a percentage of all their sales goes back directly into Helms College (located in the same shopping center.) Helms college offers hands-on education in culinary arts, health services, and industrial trades like HVAC/R. Keep up the amazing work, I eagerly look forward to dining with you again!
