| - This place is really great. One night after leaving school with a friend (both culinary students) we decided we wanted some soul food. So the place that got great reviews was Dish, I'm not a huge fan of these southern restaurants popping up all over Charlotte but hey, we're in the south, what can you do? So Dish caught our eye and as we walked into the little yellow building we were brought straight back to grandmas Alabama kitchen, where the food is fresh, southern and fattening. We started with the fried green tomatoes (how could you not? My fave) and they were so good. The horseradish sauce that came with it complimented the tomatoes very well. I ordered the chicken and dumplings (one of the more expensive things on the menu and it's still under 10 bucks, love that!). I paired the dumplings with Mac and cheese, and it comes with a biscuit and a deviled egg (hello). My friend got the country fried steak, mashed potatoes, sweet potatoes and a biscuit with egg.
The biscuits were amazing. Hard and buttery on the outside but fluffy and flavorful on the inside. Amazing. Really!
The egg was your traditional deviled egg, pretty good and a nice add on.
The dumplings were amazing, tasted like the ones my grandma make (wish they would add veggies to it)
The country fried steak was great and her two sides were awesome (carb overload but so worth it)
They have almost anything you could want from a southern kitchen, and the sides list has every southern food you can think of. On the back of the menu is sandwiches and even those looked awesome (want to try the chicken pesto). All In all I give the service, food and ambiance 4 stars. For the price, the portions are great, and the food was pretty good but could use some seasoning, other than that this place is awesome.
