15 Best Southern Restaurants near Duncan

“Been a few times food is always fantastic. The atmosphere is superb and after eating, you get to see different stuff in the store .“

“I've previously commented about the excellent food, atmosphere, and service provided, but now have more praise ! A recent takeout order wasnt the usual high quality (due to an equipment issue i found out later). When I commented on a survey stating the problem, I received a phone call from the OWNER ! He apologized, explained the issue, & then refunded our purchase with a gift card ! This is such an impressive and rare act of customer attention that I wanted to share. WE WILL CONTINUE TO ENJOY FLAVORSHACK & RECOMEND IT EVERY CHANCE WE GET ! Thanx !“

“Had the spicy chicken biscuits. It was good, the chicken was a crazy thick piece and crispy. The biscuit was great, classic southern butter biscuit. The hashbrown was okay, it was crispy but not burnt, however, it didn’t have much seasoning but that’s okay ketchup helps lol. There was no line so that was nice to get in and out fast. Definitely will be back to try more options.

Would like an app to order from as a side note lol“

“We have gone to Southhouse for years and will still. Everything has been great, however, yesterday afternoon, we had the poorest service ever. Waitresses need to know that they create public relations. Smile some and take time more. Usually such has been great, but not yesterday!“

“We eat there a lot. The food is excellent and the wait staff are are really great! The place is ALWAYS cold! Winter and Summer. We ask them to change it a little but by the time they do, you will be ready to leave!“

“Bailey was so very helpful and nice. The food was exceptional.“

“My first visit to The Mason Jar, and it was a pleasant one.
There was no wait when my party of two arrived so, we were sat immediately. However, there was a long wait to order drinks, and then another long wait to recieve them. It appeared that our server may have been overloaded, as she was covering the whole restaurant. If I were in a hurry, I would have been highly annoyed.
After some consideration, I decided on the shrimp and grits, and my wife order from the meat and 2 menu, an order of country fried steak, with collars, and Mac n cheese.
Thankfully, the food came out faster than our drinks, and it looked fantastic. I wasn't expecting my shrimp and grits to come with toasted brussel sprouts but, there they were. In a ring around my bowl, toasted with a perfect char on them. The grits were creamy, and covered in cheese sauce, tomatoes, bacon, and some really large (over an inch each), fresh shrimp. If I could make one constructive critique, it would be to toss the shrimp in some Old Bay seasoning, or maybe creole spice rub. I only salted the Brussels sprouts to elevate them a bit. Overall, it was a great dish, as I cleaned my bowl, and almost asked for some more.
For dessert, I wanted to order the Blueberry Cheesecake unfortunately, they were out of that, and I had to order the homemade banana pudding. (Oh, darn!) It's came served in a miniature mason jar, topped with a generous amount of whipped cream, dusted with nilla wafer dust, and it was fantastic. So good, that I forgot all about them being out of the cheesecake I wanted.
I look forward to a future visit, and if you have not been, you should consider it. ❤️😋“

“A&P is one of a kind. The food is so much better than similar family style restaurants and the staff are so well trained and treat customers like f silly. It’s really a special place. Every time our son comes home from Clemson A&P is the first place he wants to go eat! It’s best in class!“

“Went here for our anniversary last night and it was so nice! I had the duck salad and it was absolutely delicious. Everyone was so friendly, sweet, and genuine. Service was great. Can’t say enough great things 💛“

“The food tastes great and the atmosphere is so cozy!!! Only thing is I ordered the Hash Bowl with extra seasoning and over easy eggs. The eggs were more cooked than over easy, more like over hard and when i asked for extra seasoning, there was NO seasoning on my bowl :( also barely any goat cheese so sad
This is my second time ordering and the first time was perfect! Maybe someone new handled my order or they were too busy? But their food tastes great!! Would give them a try!“

“I can’t say enough good things about Southern Palate Catering. We used their services for our wedding in April 2022. Most of the compliments we received from the wedding were about the food! We worked with Denise, the chef and owner of Southern Palate. She always got back to me promptly and was always willing to meet with me face to face anytime I needed during the planning process. My husband and I always dreamed of having Mexican food at our wedding. Denise already had an option on the catering menu for Mexican stations and it was just what we were looking for! They homemake everything, even the tortilla chips (which were amazing), and were able to accommodate my gluten allergy with anything I wanted. Denise made sure all of her employees knew I was gluten free and they served me and my husband the whole night so that we didn’t have to worry about taking the time to get our own food. They even packed us a to go box full of every food item at the wedding so that we were able to eat at our hotel after. They took all the stress off of us on our special day and I can’t thank them enough. I highly recommend using them for any event and I will definitely be using them for any catering needs in the future.“

“Went from a 5 star to less than 1 if I could. All workers gathered talking. They have about 50 pieces chicken already made. Not under a light ... All sides were gross. Mac and cheese and the rice both was all stuck together from being out so long. I've had better. Way better. Very disappointed. $23 and didn't half eat our meals. Prices are going up so service should be going up as well. If they are making more and more than I'd suggest they also put in more effort. 6-2-25 @ 5:20pm. Check your cameras to see how hard these people are working.im watching her chew as she waits on the customer.. so sad...“

“What a great spot! Diverse/unique menu with delicious options, attentive service, lovely indoor/outdoor seating accommodations. We will definitely be back!“

“I moved recently and the food in my new city is bad. All I can think about is this restaurant. Everything is good here“

“Overall, dinner was fantastic! We were staying at the Hyatt and decided to take advantage of the restaurant week menu. We both chose to have the pasta dishes for our entree, and they were to cooked to perfection. Mine came with a bolognese sauce that was delicious. I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone, and I will definitely be dining here again on my next trip to Greenville.“
