About Walter's BBQ Southern Kitchen

Walter's BBQ Southern Kitchen is a restaurant that offers delicious food and a wonderful atmosphere. The service is attentive and friendly, providing great recommendations on the menu. The outdoor patio is charming and comfortable, making it a perfect setting for a relaxing meal. The menu features a variety of options, including a large salad with fried chicken, homemade ranch dressing, brisket, ribs, brisket tacos, candy bacon, and a chicken platter with greens, Mac and cheese, and cornbread. The chicken platter is a standout, and the portions are generous.

Recent visitors have praised the food, especially the lunchbox special with pulled pork, mac & cheese, coleslaw, and cornbread, calling it delicious and promising to return. The atmosphere can be lively, especially during night hours, with a fun nightlife vibe, though some note that the lighting could be less bright, and a small dance space would be a good addition.

Many appreciate the open air Sunday brunch, which features picnic benches, open tables, or booth options. The tables are clean, with good overhead cover and sun filters. The staff is friendly, efficient, and well-trained, ensuring orders arrive quickly, hot, and well-plated. Classic dishes like pancakes, eggs, brisket/bbq, waffles, and chicken are well-prepared and enjoyable.

While the brisket is great, some feel that the ribs and sides could use improvement. Parking remains a challenge on busy days, as it is only street parking. Overall, Walter's BBQ Southern Kitchen is a must-visit for those who love great barbecue, good service, and a welcoming atmosphere.

TODD was our server… BEST EVER… steak was cooked perfectly medium rare… which is what I asked for. Steak seasoned perfectly.. fries were amazing… just a great experience! Highly recommend-

Been looking forward to checking this place out and did not disappoint! Our server, Salem, was friendly and engaged with us and the kids in such an authentic manner! She brought out a corn hole set so kids were entertained and I could catch up with my BFF. Food was very good, and came out fast!

This was my first time here. And wont be my last. I ordered the fatty brisket and it was beyond words amazing. The brisket queso fries are to die for. Myself and my friends were extremely satisfied with our meals!

Key takeaway: if you don’t like ordering from your phone, don’t go, and don’t complain. It’s 2024. Menus are going to be a thing in the past. Ordering for us was quick and easy, no feelings of being rushed because you control your order. Food came super...read full review
