Luella's Southern Kitchen Reviews
We arrived and paid for our food and had to wait 1 hour and 40 minutes before we were served. While waiting we had to ask for extra water as the wait staff occasionally apologized for our wait but never offered to refill our water (which had no ice!) The food was absolutely amazing! Best shrimp and grits that I have ever had. Was it worth the wait…despite the deliciousness-NO! A ridiculous waste of my time! Won’t be returning.
Great food and large portions - shareable. There's a large variety of food available. You can skip ordering at the table with the QR code, and just order at the counter.
I was taking my girlfriend for her first time. It was horrible. The ordering system was Not working correctly. Many people had been waiting a considerable amount of time before being informed their order was never even taken. I was forced to give a tip before I even got the food via tablet. For the amount of money that was spent a much better time should have been had.
