    The $56 New York strip was not even on par with Long Horns; it was fatty and overcooked. Additionally, the asparagus was undercooked. The She Crab Soup was our appetizer, and it was the best part of the meal, but it was not as good as the She Crab soup that Nordstroms serves. The other members of our party (3 in total) described their meals (fried chicken and trout) as underwhelming. Given their crazy high price points and inferior product quality, I would highly recommend that folks pass on this restaurant.

    Marielle is a great waiter/host for SCK in Vinings! She knows the menu and can make suggestions. Very attentive and positive! Food was absolutely fabulous from appetizers, main dishes and dessert. A great place to eat and we need to visit more often. Thank you for a great experience.

    We had a very nice brunch to celebrate my son’s birthday! They reached out ahead of time to get his name so they could help celebrate. They had an envelope with a birthday wish inside along with a free dessert, very nice! I had the malted Belgian waffle and it was very good. My husband had the fried chicken and it was tasty as well. Overall we enjoyed our visit. We would return!

    Food has very little flavoring....poor choice I made for Mother's Day Dinner. I expected a "southern" restaurant to have some taste to it. My Aunt and Mom were so disappointed. The server was attentive and polite. The atmosphere was fine-

    Service was very slow and the waitress kept forgetting things we asked for. Food was nowhere near as good as it used to be. This used to be our favorite restaurant but it is no longer consistent in quality or service. Very disappointing.

    Food was good. Service was terrible maybe because it was Mother’s Day. Had to keep looking for the waitress. She act like she really didn’t care.

    We visited for mothers day as a party of 2. It was crowded as expected and the staff seemed really stressed. When we arrived there was only one host, she seemed overwhelmed and had someone step in to help. We had a reservation and didn't have to wait long. It took awhile for our waiter to see us and get our drinks and the food was a little slow. But it was mothers day, no fault of the staff or kitchen. It seemed that there weren't enough people on the schedule to accommodate for the holiday. At times I saw the servers exchange tense words with each other. The food was great, it was a fixed menu and everything tasted great.
