Fantastic soul food more

Editorial review from GrubHub 10/7/2013

The gumbo was good, but could have been more flavorful and spicy. The bread pudding was fantastic. There was nothing special about the macaroni and cheese. more

BEST Southern Food in Chicagoland 2/25/2009

I LOVE THIS PLACE! I'm from Texas and when I need good southern, homecooking I head to Evanston. The fried okra reminds me of moms (shhh, don't tell her). The biscuits and gravy are a must for brunch...seriously, I can't say enough about how good they are. Love the fried catfish (would throw some black pepper and canjun spice in the mix)...but it is really good. Love the fried chicken...I think you see the pattern here for fried! The service is great, but I do miss the chicory coffee...bring iti back! Def my favorite place for southern and soul food! Pros: FRIED OKRA!, great service, parking Cons: sometimes there are too many kids, more

eh, I wasn't overly impressed, but my mother-in-law who is part cajun loved it. more

Good service & Tasty Food! 10/9/2008

There's nothing like sitting down at a restaurant and getting warm mini corn-pancakes in the bread basket. They've got crazy flavorful Jamaican chicken wings and huge salads. Sadly, I was a little dissappointed with their cornbread though...dry and didn't have a strong corn flavor. :( Decent prices though! more

My favorite eats in Evanston 6/10/2003

I've been to Dixie Kitchen about six times now and must say I love this place. Everything from the cornbread pancakes to the jumbalaya to the fried chicken is outstanding and very reasonably priced. This isn't the place to go if you want to eat healthy, but if you want food that tastes great, this is the place. Pros: great food, inexpensive, good menu variety Cons: kinda small more

Food is not worth long wait 1/14/2003

I have been to the Dixie Kitchen on two occassions. Both times we had to wait between 45-60 minutes for a table. There is no where is sit and wait either. Everyone just crowds around the door. The food is so-so. The muffins are dry, and in my experience the vegetables have always been overcooked. The portions are large, but rather tasteless. However, there are several items on the menu, like the gumbo, that were worth a return trip. The service has also been average. Cons: Parking, No Reservations more

Just not very good. 10/5/2002

Tried this place after hearing many good things, including reviews here. The experience was quite bad. The breading on our fried green tomatoes was almost pure salt, and the tomatoes were served too hot. Our main course, grilled chicken breast, wasn't thoroughly done and was totally devoid of flavor. The cole slaw was dry and flavorless, and the corn was only fair. The corn muffin was good, as were the mashed potatoes and gravy. Our service was bad. I didn't once receive a beverage refill, and despite being seated next to the water station, received a water refill only after we had paid our check! Our waiter was absent. This was VERY disappointing and may be overrated. We left hungry for a real meal, something with flavor. In a city full of good restaurants, you can throw a dart at a map and find a better place. Pros: Quick seating, Easy parking Cons: Very bad food, Poor service more
