4 Best Southern Restaurants in Kingsport

“We had such a fantastic experience at Southern Craft! The service was amazing—friendly, attentive, and quick. Everything came out fast and fresh, and every bite was delicious. We tried the fried green tomatoes, pulled pork nachos, smoked turkey, and okra, and all of it was excellent. They also have great options on the kids’ menu, which made it perfect for the whole family. The atmosphere was lively and welcoming—we even ran into several people we knew, which made it feel even more like a hometown favorite. The bar vibe is great, and the location is amazing. From start to finish, it was an all-around wonderful dining experience. We’ll definitely be coming back!“

“Normally, I'm not the biggest Cheddars fan, but I really have to brag on the server that my family and I had today (4/5, around 6:00). We were a bigger party, and she handled everything perfectly. I seriously wish I knew her name so that I could thank her properly, but she had the section in the area behind the host stand next to the fish tank. She was extremely sweet, prompt, and nothing was out of place. I'm a server myself, and I feel like I learned how to be a better server just from dining with her today. My family and I received excellent service today, and we could not stop talking about how great a server she was. We really appreciated her!“
