After hearing about this place on a local Facebook group page, I decided to try this place on a…read morelovely summer day. After seeing some vehicles parked up front I thought the place would have some people in here but, it was just me and one other patron that sat at the bar. Guess it was just a slow day, who knows. I was greeted by one of the employees who I later find out is one of the owners took both my food and drink order. They do have their own signature cocktails and I did have one of them called Coaches Lemonade. The best way to describe that one is the adult version of the lemonade. Also, had the Bacardi Punch. Both drinks were good but, I highly recommend Coaches Lemonade. For their food, I ordered cheese sticks and wings. The cheese sticks were great but, I wasn't big on the marinara sauce. The wings were also good. I got the mild flavor and although it was very good, it had a kick that I wasn't expecting. During my visit one of the owners, Ronnie is his name checked up on me and asked how everything thing was. He made my visit here better than expected, even made me feel right at home. I will be back here.

She gave several helpful suggestions, which I appreciated. The atmosphere could use some updating, as it felt a little older, but it still had that local mom-and-pop feel.

Overall, it was a solid spot to grab food, relax, and hold a conversation without too much noise.

Then I ordered the soup and a side of grits, which were both delicious. My husband order the Beef cheek Po Boy - yummy! And my friend ordered the Cuban. The fries are tasty and everything tasted incredibly fresh and well prepared. Of course we saved room for dessert and shared the Banana Cream Pudding. It had a roasted marshmallow top and probably the beat Banana pudding I've had! For drinks, we got the Filly Lilly, A specialty Mint Julio with Thyme in it, and the winner was the Strawberry Rhubarb Buck. Wow! Not only was the food delicious, but the service was great and everyone was very friendly and helpful. We sat inside because it was a dreary first half of the day before the sun came out for the Derby! But, there were a lot of nice outdoor areas to sit and enjoy your food or beverages. You will find something you love at the Kitchen Table. I highly recommend!
