13 Best Southern Restaurants near Carmel

“I've been wanting to go here for awhile! on an early Saturday afternoon, we finally went. everyone was very pleasant and patient with our family (toddler and infant.) although we didn't have to use the changing table in the bathroom, it was appreciated that they had one. the service was prompt and the food was absolutely delicious. we had the pulled pork sandwich, salmon salad, and kids Mac and cheese with beans/rice. no complaints! our waitress Sue was fantastic. we will be back!“

“Love this chicken. Stop here every time I come to visit my sister-in-law and nephew.“

“The food was very good, healthy, and filling. You get so much food for such a great price! Everything was fresh, I just wish they gave salt and pepper packets. The classic Carol didn’t have much flavor but Sassy Scotty blew me away and rocked my world!“

“I recently visited His Place Eatery while in Indianapolis and decided to try something a little different — the grilled collard greens and cheese sandwich with sweet potatoes, plus an additional side of collard greens.

The collard greens grilled cheese is a great and creative concept. My only concern was that the greens were a bit too juicy, which made the sandwich soggy. Because of that, it’s probably not something I would order again personally.

That said, the food overall was very tasty, and the flavors were on point. The collard greens and sweet potatoes were well-seasoned and enjoyable. I appreciate the creativity and soul put into the dishes.

The atmosphere felt relaxed and welcoming, making it a good spot if you're craving traditional comfort food.

I'll most definitely revisit and try other items on the menu!

“Our first time here, short wait time, our waitress was great but the food! It was delish plus and so fresh tasting… I recommend the sweet potato chips and made fresh to order guacomole… we had the street tacos, chicken with mango salsa and spiced street corn ! It’s an hour and a half drive but one we will make again!“

“On a Saturday at early lunch time, I ordered ahead expecting it would be busy. At my pickup time, even though they look to be very busy in the restaurant, I got my order without any delays at the drive thru. Order was correct, person at the window was friendly, and the food was great. And as always at Chicken Salad Chick, it's a great alternative to a burger and fries.“

“My boyfriend and I visited for the first time today, and we were so impressed! The food was excellent, but what really made the experience stand out was the service. Audrey was wonderful so friendly and welcoming, which made our first visit even more enjoyable. We’ll definitely be back!“

“chicken here is the best!“

“foods fire. they treat customers like family they haven't seen in a while. just wanna feed ya. very professional environment.“

“This year I decided to enjoy Christmas Day and make it easier on my Grandchildren by ordering the Prime Rib Heat n' Serve Family Dinner. Everyone was pleased and enjoyed the day with the babies, Isaac and Aeris. It was delicious. The only recommendation I would make is better dinner rolls. 👍🙂🎁🎄😋“

“This place is the bomb dot com and both Kisha and Keisha have excellent customer service skills. The restaurant is extremely clean, the food is hot, delicious and fresh, there is enough seating for large groups and you will not be disappointed. All of the food is worth the prices and the corn casserole is one of my favorites. Just don’t forget to bring cash since they take cash only. The sweet potato pie is banging also so don’t get a slice but a whole pie so you won’t regret it when you get home with just one slice. We will definitely return to enjoy some good food and great conversation. I highly recommend this place for some good home cooked meals. I give them 10 stars!“

“Good food great atmosphere“

“We love Slim Chicken. We've been eating here for months now, and it's always good. Usually get the tenders or chicken and waffles, but everything I've tried has been enjoyable. Staff and managers are always friendly. Chill music and atmosphere with comfortable seating. Rewards program is awesome. Love some slim chik. -Matty Shoes-“
