We gotta do better as black business owners. This establishment needs to train their employees better and teach them some customer service skills. The food isn't that good to begin with, maybe 4/10. I was excited to try this place because I seen them on instagram but ended up being very disappointed . The manager wasn't available to speak with, just some teenagers running the place and they didn't want to refund my son for his uneaten food nor replace the mean with something better. Not even try and compensate him (only offer a discount) and then told him to leave because he was on his phone. The cook came out acting as if he was also the security' guard, but looks like a child. Maybe that's why the food isn't that great. I definitely don't recommend this place to anyone... read more

Southern Breakfast Kitchen - Bland Shrimp and Grit. Not so good. - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Bartlett, Tennessee

I was seated at the bar. Unpin arrival, I enjoyed the saxophonist. The atmosphere was nice, the musical selections were RB 90s. The server was polite. She was serving quite a few tables at one. But, she managed to balance it all. The pork chops were grilled but tough and salty. The pancakes were phenomenal. read more

I had an excellent experience at the Southern breakfast kitchen. My husband and I decided to attend their grand opening. My understanding is that they opened at the top of the year, but this event served as an opportunity to introduce this new black owned business to the Bartlett community. The location is quite convenient (by Kroger on Kirby Whitten). We had ample parking selections, and we were seated once we got in. We were greeted by every server, all seemed friendly and ready to serve. Inside, the atmosphere gives a family feel. There was a mix of couples in attendance, primarily skewing 40's-50's. My husband and I greatly appreciated the live jazz music, which added more upscale vibe to the overall experience. I also absolutely love that they had both a coffee bar and a standard bar. We did not try the hibachi, but that option was available as well. It took about 30 minutes for us to receive our food and about 15 minutes for us to receive our drinks. we had the mango and orange mimosas and both were good (though I highly recommend the mango). We both got the omelettes (veggie and veggie + ham). It was an ample amount of food. I couldn't even eat much of the hash browns because I was so full! For the price, we were both quite satisfied! Our server was attentive and consistently checked on us. Our water classes were never empty. I appreciate this type of service. We both agreed that we would be back, probably with family. I am hoping that this will become a staple in the Bartlett community. read more

First visit takeaways... 1. The staff was prompt, friendly and welcoming upon entry 2. They were experiencing a shortage in kitchen staff which caused a delay in seating (~30 mins). I would have preferred to sit , maybe order drinks, and chat with people in my party vs stand and wait at the door. I think there were some missed revenue opportunities because of that. And the optics of a room full of empty tables while ppl are waiting to be seated just isn't pleasant. 3. After being seated, the waitresses were READY. Orders were taken, waters were served. Things went smoothly from that point. 4. The food was tasty. Good seasoning and flavor on the wings (but they were a little small). The omelet was good . This is not the place to order oatmeal. Everything else, including the cocktails, was good. 5. Overall, I would definitely go back. It was a nice atmosphere and the people working were friendly and focused. Everyone was doing A LOT and all while smiling. read more

My friend/mentee and I had a delightful Catch-Up experience having breakfast, for the first time, at Southern Breakfast Kitchen in Bartlett, TN. This was the Hostess' first day and she was bubbling with enthusiasm. The entire Serving Staff was EXCEPTIONALLY friendly and engaging with all the guest. We had the Southern Breakfast: (1) Mine with grits, sausage, and biscuit; (2) His with hash-browns, sausage, and waffle. The food was FANTASTIC and our Server (Tan H) was DELIGHTFUL (warm, friendly, and attentive). LOL... When Tan brought the food, it looked and smelled so good that we were half-way through our meals before I thought about taking a picture for Yelp! KUDOS to the Kitchen, Management, and Server Teams for a GREAT Breakfast experience and we will DEFINITELY return!!! read more

Decided to give this place a try in a Saturday morning at 10am! At this time it was busy at all so there was no wait and our party of 4 was immediately seated. Our waiter Rico started off very Nice! He did a lot of talking trying to be cool but it kinda came off aggressive. Any way. He seemed to be servicing the entire left side of the restaurant which at the time was very busy but did become busy. We started off with beignets. He asked had i ever been to Nee Orleans and Cafe Dumond i guess to compare them to it but there were nothing like that. Yes, they were good and warm but to me it tasted more like a croissant than a beignet. We also ordered passion fruit mimosas which were just ok. They poured some syrup in the bottom of the glass and the champagne on top. The syrup just sat at the bottom and needed to be served. Rico made the drinks - I'm sure he is t a bartender. It would be better to pour the champagne than the syrup on top. Any way, we ordered our meals. I ordered the catfish meal that was on the brunch menu with macaroni and cheese and fried okra. The kids breakfast came with one pancake, eggs, and a piece of sausage. The pancake was just a big as the adult size pancake. No complaints tho. My catfish was delicious as well as the okra. The macaroni was somewhat oily but had a good taste. I would def come back to give this place another try! read more

Let me start by saying thank you to the host and server. They were super friendly and were able to answer all our questions. The restaurant was clean and there seemed to be a steady stream of customers entering. The prices weren't outrageous but the portions were adequate. An added bonus is that they have a bar with a good variety of cocktail options. I only give a 4 because of our seating arrangement. I don't like sitting really close to other diners and we weren't asked about our table or booth preference. read more

Very great customer service our waiter (Talon) was extremely helpful and I was impressed with his knowledge of the menu. The food was very good nicely seasoned and fresh. I had French toast and let me tell you, they were lightly covered which made them lite. The egg whites were on point and the coffee (Maxwell House) was very smooth. Overall, we had a very pleasant experience this morning and will be visiting again. read more

The service and wait time was fine but the food was mediocre at best. We had the beignets that were pretty decent. We also had the Benedict Florentine, which was nothing like I expected. The English muffin wasn't toasted and the egg wasn't poached (fried), the spinach wasn't cooked, and the hollandaise was thicker than mayonnaise. I have been to this place before and it was good, but today was really bad. read more

My fiancé and I first time here, my food and drinks were good and strong ,my dining experience was amazing! !!

My fiance and I were excited to come to this restaurant a support our people, but left highly disappointed. I asked for coffee and never received it, so I sat and reminded our waiter. He mentioned the he "didn't forget" yet still never brought my coffee. 50 min later, we are watching everyone around us who came in after us get served coffee AND their food before us. No one came back to our table to see if we needed anything, but waited on everyone around us. My fiance became very upset and we left. read more

Went to Sunday brunch .. no more than 6 people in the restaurant... service took way too long. I had a party of 5 .. drinks were however amazing... but food was bad. We received pancakes with cheese on the bottom of the pancake stack. When leaving the host asked for our opinion .. this was my first time .. and i was honest with my answer was tbh drinks were great food was not the best.. host said "OK BYE" and got upset! If u can cook basic food then just stay home. My 15 year old can cook better than this place. read more

It was a nice atmosphere and the food was good. There was a wait so we sat at the coffee bar and they took great care of us.

First time going. My family and I got sat right away but waited about 10 minutes before a server came to our table. After our drink and food order were placed, we waited another 10-15 min just to get our drink order (2 coffees and 2 kids drinks). Food was brought to the table incomplete, as well. Server had to go back and get the pancakes for the kids. The food was definitely mediocre especially for the price we paid. I doubt we will be going back. Hate to say that especially because this was opening week for the restaurant. read more

This is a new restaurant in Bartlett and his was my first time. I ordered the biscuits and gravy with side of bacon and scrambled eggs. I have had biscuits and gravy from a lot of places, this was one of the best I have had. Two great biscuits and the sausage gravy had a good flavor. The scrambled eggs were cooked perfectly and the bacon was crispy. One of the best breakfasts I have had in a long time. I will be back. read more
