South Kitchen Spirits Nocatee

We come here for the great Southern-style food, especially for Brunch. Also, they have a great selection of cocktails along with a decent amount of beer and wine.

Eating at South Kitchen was wonderful. This was my third time eating here and every time South Kitchen never disappoints. Great service and very friendly server. He made sure we had everything we needed and checked on us often. I had the Brunch Salmon Egg Benedict. Everything was amazing and the best part was the Gouda grits. My husband has the Chicken and Waffles and the best part was the waffles. The pop of sugary crystal in the waffle was perfection. My daughter had the same thing and loved it. My son had the kids Little cheeseburgers and he also loved it. He ate all his fries and that says a lot bc he doesn’t really eat his fries at any other restaurant. We enjoyed every minute of our time and food at South Kitchen. We will be definitely be coming back and possible making this restaurant our regular.

Great food selection, quick and courteous service. Accommodated our group of 12 with ease

We came in on Sunday night our appetizer was served after our meal and we were told that it was because our meal is easier to prep. ? We were hungry so we accepted. We shared the fish and grits which is our favorite at your restaurant. We ordered the mushroom appetizer which wasn’t that good unfortunately. Oddly the cheese that usually coats the tops of the mushrooms was baked on the bottom not as if some had melted off but that none was ever put there just put at the base of the skillet. The mushrooms were also incredibly small in size in comparison to times I’ve had at this restaurant before. Also, we ordered the salted caramel cheesecake which sounded good, but when we received it instead of having a caramel sauce or something that complimented it it had a strawberry sauce on it? We would have sent it back but it was getting late and we were ready to wrap up our night so we just scraped it off. We enjoyed the cheesecake itself but that sauce was a miss and if we went again I would have them hold that off or check to see if that was what should have been on there. Fruit and salted caramel to me don’t mesh well. The cocktails we had were good in flavor as always the cherry limeade is our go to and then I tried a new pepper lavender cocktail which I enjoyed. The color of it was a cloudy gray which didn’t seem appealing at first, but it tasted great. I recommend the bar using a prism powder (as sold at fancy sprinkles) to add appeal to it or a nicer garnish or a sugar rim. When people are paying $12 for a smaller sized craft cocktail it’s more expected. Lastly our server was very nice, he said he was new so he didn’t have a lot of recommendations and admitted he hadn’t tried much of the menu, but he was prompt and friendly. Overall, I’d like to end with that we enjoy South being in Nocatee and it’s great to have a restaurant of its quality and uniqueness here. We hope to come back again in the future and things improve hoping it was just an off night.

Great food and atmosphere. We will be back here for drinks and dinner.
