Southern comfort food in a city not exactly known for it, and that's precisely why it works. The brunch line is legendary — sometimes an hour on weekends — but the fried chicken, biscuits, and shrimp and grits justify every minute of standing on the sidewalk. Dinner is less crowded and just as good, with a quieter, candlelit energy that feels like a different restaurant entirely.
Insider tip
Go for dinner instead of brunch and skip the line entirely. The praline bacon is better by candlelight anyway.
