I shared a meal with a few friends and we enjoyed everything that was placed before us. The drinks, appetizer and our entrees were splendid. To dine at a restaurant with no seasoning on the table is unheard of and none was required!!! Our food was seasoned to our liking. To the owner WELL DONE and a kiss and hats off to the chef and staff.

Staff was great. Truly great. The rooms are a little loud when multiple tables are set. The outside area looked very nice. The appetizers and salads were extremely good. We ordered the shrimp and grits and the burger with fries. The shrimp and grits were OK at best. We only ate half of the burgers. The fries were on point.

We absolutely love eating at The King's Kitchen! The food is so delicious. And the servers are awesome! My husband and I have been several times and this time we took friends who were visiting Charlotte. They both absolutely loved The King's Kitchen! The ambience is great as well as everything else. We can't say enough good things about it.
