Southern Grill — Restaurant in Tukwila

OMG!!! A hidden gem found in Tukwila. I don’t know where to start. First, the customer service is outstanding. You’re greeted wen you first come in by the gentleman who takes your order. The ladies in the back cooking occasionally peek out and greet you with a smile. Second, the food is cooked to order. I’ve been wanting some fried fish since Good Friday. Y’all this place smells just like the southern eateries in the south. Smells like grandma cooking, comfort and love. I ordered the chicken with a side of cabbage. My tastes buds started dancing 💃🏾 the cabbage is cooked without meat, but it was so delicious along with the not so sweet corn muffin. ( down south we usually eat hocake cornbread). Y’all the chicken. Lawd, the chicken is organic and locally grown and you can taste it. The batter on the chicken reminds me of my mom’s fried chicken. When she would coat the chicken with flour in a brown paper bag. And fry it up in that crisco lard. 😂 moving on to the catfish. Can you say y-u-m-m-y!! It’s fried to perfection golden brown, crispy cornmeal and tender flaky fish. The hush puppies we good too. The menu is limited but, if you want some down home cooked food, this is the place. Besides, this gives the cooks to concentrate on their speciality. Giving you the best. 😊The food is definitely cooked with the finest ingredients, integrity, and love. I must apologize for not posting pictures. But I ate all my food before I made this review teehee 🤭 all I have is an empty container. Bottom line the food is good. To the owners and staff at Southern Grill thank you for the best southern culinary food I’ve had in my 7 years living here. You have a repeat customer and I will spread the word. May God continue to bless you and your...

As someone who moved from the south to seattle a long time ago i've been missing true tasting southern food. When I first walked into the Southern Grill I was just starting my lunch break looking for something new to eat. I was instantly met by a kind and friendly staff. I ordered the honey wings and tried to swipe my card but due to the mag strip being worn down my card was unable to go through. The guy behind the register didn't hesitate in spotting me for my lunch. I was extremely grateful for the gesture and the fact I didn't have to run to an ATM to pull cash out. It took a little bit for the food to come out but the wait was entirely worth it. This spot has the best honey wings I had in a good minute. I was sucking every last bit of the wing off the bone. I found myself forgetting to dip each wing in ranch with how well flavored they were. The whole tray was presented beautifully. I also had gotten a few sides with the wings. While the fries did leave me wanting a little more seasoning. I cannot at all gripe about the amazing cornbread they serve. Ive lost a bit of my southern palette I've been eating cornbread a lot less in the past 8 1/2 years I lived here. I thought I had stopped liking the taste of cornbread but Southern Grill revived my love for some real southern made cornbread. They actually put corn in it which helps hydrate the cornbread and makes for a very savory side dish. If you want some phenomenal wings and southern made cuisine that reminds you of home. I'd recommend you look out for the Southern Grill next time you're out in the...

Excellent soul food! My family and I loved every scrumptious bite. Catfish cooked and sumptuously flavored to absolute perfection. The fried chicken was also crisp, flavorful, and juicy without being greasy. The cabbage was well flavored and tasty, and the hush puppies made me reminiscent of my grandmothers cooking. They offered a couple of freebies with our order(s).

I am anticipating when until they open up again so I can have a repeat of that same delectable meal. They provide superb customer service with the feeling of a home cooked meal. It was done right and my only laments are I didn’t know about them sooner, and I unfortunately failed to take pictures of any of our meals.

I’ll be back and will follow up with pics. Be sure to check their hours as they are open 3 days per week....
