Best Southern American Restaurants in Clinton

Always enjoy going to whiskey and oyster! Its become one of our favorite places- especially on $1.00 oyster night!! Food is wonderful- love the chowder!! Staff are super friendly and efficient!! Already booked for next month!!

Jambalaya was good! I grew up an hour from New Orleans and find that the dish was pretty similar to what you would expect in NOLA

The food is always outstanding at King and Rye. I had requested a quiet table with my reservation and the host initially tried to seat us right in the loud bar area. I asked them to try to accommodate my request and they did which was excellent. Our server was just ok. He was not articulate in his speech and we could barely understand him or hear him over the volume of the restaurant. His table side manner could have been more friendly and engaging. A server can make or break your experience and he definitely could have been more attentive and friendly. Overall the food was excellent.

The service was good and the food was delicious. One downside is the advertisement of $23.95 BOTTOMLESS MIMOSAS, which is false because there is a .35 cent charge for each refill. Please adjust the menu description from either Bottomless or refills are .35 cent.

Run, do not walk, to Succotash! I was not expecting much, as I am a Northerner, and greens and grits are out of my wheelhouse. But everything at Succotash was eye-rolling, out-of-this-world delicious. We got the Taste of the South, which is shareable plates of most of everything on the menu. Our server, Xavier, assured us there would be plenty of food, and he was not kidding. We started with kimchi deviled eggs and fried green tomato salad with goat cheese. Then smoked chicken wings and an incredible hot sweet cornbread. The mains included local crispy catfish, BBQ pork ribs, chicken and waffles (amazingly crunchy crust and meltingly tender chicken!), collard greens with country ham, awesome mac'n' cheese. Xavier was magical, whisking away empty plates and bringing new ones. THEN mini pecan pies, and hummingbird cake truffles. We had to get a take-home box. Wow, wow, wow! Kudos to the chef and the kitchen staff. Everything was hot and beautifully plated. The only things we didn't get were grits and.. succotash!
