5 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!“

“Had lunch there yesterday. Delicious chicken and dumplings. Finished the rest for lunch today.“

“The food was good. The wait staff were great. The restaurant was very clean and presentable. I have only one complaint. The restaurant closes at 10:00 pm. A few minutes before 8:00 our meal was finished and I ordered dessert and a cup of coffee which is a very normal request. The kitchen staff member sent the message that they were out of coffee. Upon questioning further I discovered this kitchen staff member had another job and wanted to clean up early to get to that job thus refusing to make fresh coffee. I told our waiter to let that person know that a lack of planning on his part was not my problem and refusing to make fresh coffee two hours before closing was ridiculous. I sincerely hope the manager of this location reads this review.“
