Southern Kitchen FOOD & DRINK
Southern Kitchen
Southern Kitchen

Southern Kitchen is a little red building with a screen door on a busy intersection in Tacoma, next to a Jiffy Lube. Out in the parking lot, the smell of chicken frying is so good, you could probably gain weight just standing there. Inside, it’s country-diner-roadhouse and (as the menu accurately says) “Southern cooking at its down-home best.” Drinks come in mason jars, which does not feel like an affectation here, and the chicken and the brisket are great. Also the fried okra. And the black-eyed peas. And pretty much everything else. Regarding portions: Pace yourself. (Southern Kitchen, 1716 Sixth Ave, Tacoma, 253-627-4282, 8 am–8 pm) by Bethany Jean Clement

Oh, yeah. So, so good. The only problem is deciding on which two sides. If you get a third, you may have trouble getting out of your chair. But they won't serve chitlins to dopey white boys from the North, so don't even ask (they're on the menu, though).

Dear hordes of people that would ruin The Southern Kitchen by overcrowding it,

It's not that great. Stay home.

I would like to echo #4, SK is a tad overrated.

I was just there this weekend and the beef brisket & fried green tomatoes were delicious. My friends all agreed.

My husband said the fried chicken wasn't as good as the brisket and that Ezell's is better.

Pretty shocked. Thought the meal I ate there was the worst food I've had. Ever. In life.
