Excellent spot to get traditional items that can be hard to find, such as chitlins, turkey necks, pork necks, and other home-cookin' staples. Pro tip: get there right when they open. They are very popular and only have a few parking spots. Also, you'll have to wait a while as the line can get long. If you're *really* late, they'll run out of items. Be aware, too, that the selection changes depending on what they make that day. Everyone there is EXTREMELY friendly! They are very kind people who love their customers! The restaurant is tiny -- a lot of people get their food to go.

The Brown Bag Restaurant in Northport has been a staple for good eats for as long as I can…read moreremember. I can't tell you how many times people have recommended it for lunch, yet I never managed to stop in and experience it for myself until today. My work schedule and the Bag's hours always seemed to clash, and since it's a bit off the beaten path, it stayed in the "out of sight, out of mind" category. Now, as I'm approaching full retirement, I finally had the time to swing by and see what all the fuss was about. Upon arrival, the first sign you're in the right place is the parking lot. It's packed, about like a blue tick on a hound dog. Stepping inside, don't expect anything fancy. The interior is old school with faded paint and a no frills setup. Your food is served in Styrofoam containers with plastic utensils. But that's part of the charm. Who needs fine china when you're filling your gizzard with good soul food? The place was full and I managed to grab one of the last open tables under the roof. I then waited for the waitress who was running laps across the dining area, taking orders, refilling drinks, checking out customers, and handling everything in between. If you come anywhere near lunch hour, don't expect Jimmy John's Freaky Fast service. You're here to slow down and enjoy the experience. When I ordered, I went with a catfish fillet, turnip greens, field peas, fried green tomatoes, a side of cornbread, and tartar sauce for the fish. The fried green tomatoes did not make it out with the order, but the waitress was very apologetic and adjusted my bill to a meat and two instead of a meat and three, which I appreciated. Now to the important part, the food. The catfish was hot, crispy, and perfectly cooked, not greasy at all, just honest, well done Southern cooking. The turnip greens and field peas were flavorful and comforting, exactly what you hope for in a place like this. The tartar sauce had a slightly sweet twist that I was not expecting, different from the traditional version, but surprisingly excellent. I will need a few more visits before I can fully put that into words, but it worked. Overall, now I understand the buzz. The Brown Bag delivers exactly what it promises, simple, hearty, well prepared soul food served without pretense. I will definitely be back, and now that retirement is on the horizon, I have got all the time in the world to wait on a good meal, unlike you working folks still rushing through lunch.

A hot mess but trying. There's a difference between a cook and a chef. This place has a credible…read morerenowned chef, but the problems arise from the lack of capable kitchen help which makes Urban Country Kitchen's food preparation, quality, and service fall apart. One general never won a war alone. Capable soldiers are needed too. My visit here found the artistry and vision, but not the execution. The restaurant is set up in a cafeteria fashion herding patrons through a line. Often the posted menu items being served run out with large gaps occuring before they are replenished. The batches quality is varying because each time an item is never cooked the same. The service wait time is epic causing the customer line of many different races to start at the door. Thats a major flag because the place is only open for five hours and closes. The pricing of a dinner plate consisting of a meat option, two choices of various sides, a bread selection, bottomless lemonade or tea for dine-in patrons, and a dessert was on the spendy side to me, however, I think that's the norm now in this present economy. Overall, I give the food a six. My next visit should be better because I know the chef is good enough to right this ship and get it sailing on the proper course.
