Nana's Southern Kitchen - Kent

Great food and even better customer service!Recommendations: cat fish, fried chicken and mac cheese.Candid yams and sweet tea was a bit too sweet for me.

Went here for lunch today and was very disappointed in this approximation of southern food. I walked in and was helped quickly then tell me they would bring my food out to my vehicle. I wanted to eat inside, but I'm not sure that's an option. The food smelled amazing on the dhort drive home. I ate the soggy catfish first it paired with an off colored tartar sauce it was bad. I then tried the gray macaroni and cheese. I could only eat one bite. The cornbread is sweeter than cake, and I am really disappointed in the lack of good food. Overall, the experience was overpriced for downright bad food. I won't be back.

The Southern home cooking at this restaurant is exceptional. We particularly enjoyed the collard greens, mac and cheese, and shrimp. We tried each of the entrees on the menu and found them all to be delicious.

Starting with the cleanliness and atmosphere, it was amazing. The gospel music playing in the background gave the feel of being at a family gathering on a Sunday. The customer service was rated at 9.7 out of 10. Although my original choice was the Chicken, I was persuaded to try the Catfish. The staff even allowed me to taste the Catfish before making my decision, and it was well-seasoned. I ended up ordering Catfish Nuggets, Yams, and Cabbage. My friend, on the other hand, ordered Chicken, Collard Greens, and Potato Salad, but his order was mixed up and he also received Catfish. The Catfish was rated at 9.5 out of 10, the Yams were a solid 10 out of 10, the Cabbage could use more seasoning and was rated at 7.5 out of 10, the Greens were an 8.5 out of 10, and the Potato Salad was also an 8.5 out of 10.

Finally found it! It's not easy to come across good, authentic soul food in Seattle, but Nana's is the place to go. The fried catfish is pure happiness, the large chicken wings don't even need salt or seasoning - they're just perfect. And don't even get me started on the Mac and cheese, we polished that off without hesitation. The potato salad had just the right touch of sweetness. And the women who take pride in their 4 generations of soul food are as lovely as the food itself. Make sure to treat yourself to a meal here, you won't be disappointed. Supporting local businesses like this is what makes a community thrive. Thank you for the delicious meal and warm hospitality. We'll definitely be back.
