The environment/ambience was very pleasing and the food, most importantly, was excellent. My fried chicken was crispy outside and moist inside. Well seasoned. Very nicely done. Collard greens were cooked to perfection and well seasoned. The fried green tomatoes were perfectly fried and seasoned. Thank you SCK, you have redeemed yourselves for me and we will certainly be back soon!

Overall the food is good and the coffee was very good at brunch - however the spout wasn’t operating well and coffee was spilled all over my lap. No compesantion for that. The biscuits and waffle were extremely salty. The eggs and grits were delicious. Overall nice place with a few hiccups.
