    Dessert first in a hurricane
    Regina F.

    I came up to Tallahassee to visit my daughter at FSU and to get away from hurricane Milton. I have driven past this restaurant several times and she has never wanted to go inside. I am so happy we went inside. Very pleased with the menu. She got a salad with chicken on it. I got a bowl of macaroni and cheese with chicken And her friend got a chicken finger meal. Also, they have awesome desserts in mason jars. Mine was the brownie dessert. We also got a strawberry cheesecake and a cookie dough one. The restaurant is very clean inside the service was prompt and the delivery of the food was quick.I would definitely go back again.

    Yum salad

    Drive thru customer. Food was great and service was spot on. I needed some fried okra in my life and was saved by SC.

    No complaints, here. The slim's sauce and the potato salad are super dope. Loved the original location in Fayetteville.

I subbed mashed potatoes and collard greens for my sides. Greens were spicy and not my cup of tea but the rest of it was excellent. Hidden gem! Must try.

When I read the email announcing tonight's Chef's dinner, we couldn't resist. No one, and I mean NO ONE, can fry an oyster better than Chef. Perched atop a great classic--deviled egg with bacon bits--the oyster was tender with a light batter-fried coating. Chef's duckfat cornbread drizzled with just the right amount of avocado butter provided the perfect podium on which two blackened shrimp lightly dusted with a hint of subtle spices rested. If you know me, you know I don't like my food to hurt me, and this dish met my requirements with a whisper of, "Here I am." Now, my hubby doesn't like anything with coffee, so he was worried about the hickory smoked chicken with espresso molasses BBQ sauce. However, he admitted the sauce didn't have any hint of coffee and, in fact, it was a delicious complement to the chicken. As for the pancetta Mac 'n' Cheese, its creamy cheesiness balanced out the smokiness of the chicken. Chef Joseph often offers one of his Pot de Crème varieties to finish a meal. I always look forward to them. Tonight's Pineapple White Chocolate version was a perfect finish to a perfect dining experience. Sparkling wines and summer--the perfect pairing. Even more perfect when you are enjoying them with a fabulous meal at Lucilla.

    This has become my go to lunch spot when I'm at work. I'm a big fan of this place. They have so…read moremany options on the menu and you really can't go wrong with any of them. On today I ordered the catfish tacos and collard greens with the turkey. The meal was great. The catfish was lightly fried and the sauce on it was amazing. I had my usual peach sweet tea to go with it. I would recommend this place to anyone.

    I came to this place with my friend who currently lives in Tallahassee. It came highly recommended,…read moreand it did not disappoint. During Sunday brunch, we were seated quickly, even without reservations, even while it was very busy. There were lots of people ~ the venue is cute and quaint... my friend, however, was stuck on the paint chips and holes in the wall. The food was great. I got fried deviled eggs (yummy), fried catfish, red velvet waffles, eggs and corned beef hash. The catfish was extremely fresh. The red velvet cupcakes came with a cream cheese sauce that tasted more like Krispy Kreme donut glaze or just a sugary sauce. I wish it had more of a cream cheese flavor. I wasn't pleased with it. The corn beef hash was good. My friend got the chicken and pancakes. The chicken was delicious, perfectly fried. The customer service was great ~ warm, attentive, inviting, quick, and well managed to be so busy. Jordan, our server, was amazing! The ambience and crowd were nice, diverse. Unfortunately, the speaker wasn't working properly so initially it was incredibly, awkwardly quiet. When the speaker did start working, it sounded busted. Hope you enjoy if you ever go visit.

    My dining companion and I recently visited Olean's Café. This restaurant location has been here…read morefor what seems like forever. Adams Street is a quiet street on this particular Saturday morning around 9:15 am. But inside the restaurant, there is a flurry of activity behind the counter, the aroma of breakfast makes us smile when we enter and there is a line that stretches to the door. Folks are waiting. Few dine in and most are carrying out several to go boxes per person. The prices are reasonable and for the portion size, I would say budget-minded. Get the Olean's omelette. It's generously sized and enough for 3 meals. It looks nothing like a traditional omelette. It reads more like a breakfast casserole. Eggs, potatoes, sausage, veggies and cheese. It's comfort food on a plate. I am so sorry I didn't take a photo to share. I highly recommend this meal option! My dining companion ordered scrambled eggs, bacon and plain grits. My dining companion stated they were the best restaurant grits they'd ever eaten. The bacon was piled high on his plate! He took 1/2 this meal home. Mrs. Olean is behind the counter and just as personable as can be. She sets the tone for hospitality and it shows with her courteous staff. There was ample parking. The dining room is small, probably 10 tables in all. Most seem to be taking bags with their to go containers. Few people leave with one container. We will certainly return for some of their lunch options next.

    This is where me and my coworker go to treat each other because of how great it is. Can't go wrong…read morewith anything they serve. Personally I love the oxtails and turkey. The girls at the front are so sweet and fun and let us know what to get every time. I'm still trying to come for their Tuesday hot chicken.
