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!“

“My family and I heard about His Place Eatery many times over...all that was told to us missed the mark. Why? Because our experience exceeded everything we were told to expect. The icing on the cake was that the owner himself took time to visit our ( and all.other diners) table to be sure we were happy. The Chicken & Waffles? Fire! Smothered Chicken? Fire! Collard Greens Grilled Cheese? Fire! Catfish? Double Fire! All of the sides were delicious. The staff is a reflection.of the owner...friendly, knowledgeable and professional. A must vist!“

“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!“

“chicken here is the best!“

“Chicken Salad Chick stands strong as one of my absolute favorite places to eat! It is a phenomenal establishment that consistently delivers top-tier food quality, exceptional service, and a beautiful, positive atmosphere. Every single menu option is freshly prepared with complete excellence, making it a wonderful and highly dependable spot for an amazing lunch. The hard-working team treats you like family from the moment you walk through the doors. It is an outstanding five-star staple that deserves all the praise!“

“A friend of mine kept telling me to try CSC and I finally caved. I entered your store and was greeted by Aaliyah, who was so friendly and kind. She truly represents your company well. Little did I know, this visit would be the first of many. It's now been about two months of regularly visiting your store for my Barbie Q fix. Each visit, I am never met with judgement as I do my favorite walk of shame to the counter to pick up yet another order. Even after mastering your menu, I skip the drive thru and enter the store so I can see Aaliyah. She always greets me with a smile and wishes me a great day. Thank you, Aaliyah, for being a great person!“

“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 visited for the first time on 6/13, and my son and I decided to give it a try. The customer service was top-tier—everyone was friendly, welcoming, and attentive.
The food was very tasty! In my opinion, it's a little overpriced, but honestly, what isn't these days? We dined in and enjoyed both our meal and the atmosphere. I had the chicken wrap, and my son ordered the chicken and waffles. Of course, we couldn't leave without trying one of their delicious desserts in a jar!
Overall, we had a great first experience and would definitely return.“
