    One of our favorite restaurants! You can go wrong with anything on the menu. My favorite is the Nashville Hot Chicken Sandwich. OMG so, so, great! This time, instead of the chips which come with it, I tried the veggies fries and they were amazing!!! I will always order them now. My wife got the shrimp and grits and my daughter ordered the crab cakes and we were all very happy with our meals. John, our server, was very good. Friendly without being annoying, refilled our waters before they were empty and always there at the right time. We will be returning frequently!

    A Great Christmas Day meal. The Christmas menu was one of the reasons we chose to come to Kincaid's. I had a great prime rib (end cut). It was a very festive mood at the restaurant. People were happy to be there. Kincaid's is where we come to when we want a classy place.

    The restaurant was fully booked on Christmas Eve, our reservation was running late due to patrons staying longer than usual. We were delighted to find seating in the bar instead and were equally delighted with the service, the excellent food and reasonable prices. It was a wonderful experience all around.
