Connie ChiuSeptember 30, 2017Hands down my favorite fried chicken spot ever. It's dark crispy and super juicy. Good sides are the mac n cheese, grits, and collard greens. Biscuits were alright but that jam tho.
Lindsey SApril 10, 2019Interesting twists on biscuits (+ fried chicken) from this spot in North Cap Hill. Often long lines and you must order before sitting down. Great options at the counter or to order (Sawmill!👌🏻).
Inexpensive, but excellent food. Everything made from scratch. Get the veggie hash for breakfast and treat yourself to the buttermilk biscuit and raspberry jam....so good!
BommyJanuary 5, 2016Order at the counter and then snag seats. Egg & cheese biscuit sandwich is ok... the grated cheddar cheese didn't melt. The sawmill: fried chicken, gravy, and cheese is tasty.
Micaela PierceAugust 23, 2017Southern comfort food at its finest. Don't be afraid to try some decadent combinations (i.e. Mac and cheese fried chicken biscuit).
Kelly ThompsonJuly 15, 2017Had the "Aunt Aunnie", hand cherry pie, and the carrot cake with the hubs and they were all delicious. Flaky crusts, delicate crumbs, tender chicken, and nothing was overly sweet!
Christine GeeDecember 9, 2012Great food and atmosphere! They have a few menu items for GF diners. Dinner is "family style" meaning you pass the food to the next table! And for brunch: order at the counter and THEN sit.
Ricky SherrillAugust 25, 2018I am a Southern guy who loves southern cooking and this place did not disappoint. Came for breakfast and looking forward to dinner the next time i am in Seattle.
Eric PanJuly 19, 2016Fried Chicken Fridays. MEAT & THREE: 3 pieces of buttermilk fried chicken and your choice of 3 sides. served with house hot sauces & a biscuit. $25
Paula LeeNovember 5, 2012For a simple, delicious, dessert-like riff on breakfast, order their original biscuit to go. Both the raspberry jam and butter that's spread on their fresh biscuit are top notch.
CrystalApril 8, 2015The biscuits are THE specifically 'The Easy.' Also, DO NOT leave without their homemade Coconut Cake (the best!), Birthday Cake, Raspberry Biscuit, Cinnamon Roll, etc.
Serious EatsJanuary 5, 2014Fried chicken, homemade biscuits, oyster po boys and more. Don't miss Fried Chicken Fridays, though you can get the bird any day of the week.
Allison YuJune 16, 2016Meat & three for $25 on fried chicken Friday's is a great deal! Large enough to share between two.
Best southern food I've had here. The biscuits and greens are magical. Love it!
CellaMarch 7, 2015The breakfast food, fried chicken, and biscuits are the best. Get either sawmill, original biscuit, or bubble and squeak.
Amanda RodalJuly 10, 2015Pretty much always a long wait but worth it! Everything I've had on the menu was delicious
Alex ArmstrongSeptember 29, 2013Looking for breakfast at 9:30am on a Sunday? Be prepared to wait! It is usually worth it.
Eric VenkerDecember 22, 2013Unreal fried chicken; their biscuits could feed two normal people. I'm not normal, but you might be.
LeeMarch 30, 2013Hey hipsters, bus your own table! There's a sign; don't make others clean up after you to enjoy this great food!
Andrea NowackNovember 24, 2012Laid back atmosphere, great food. Try the sawmil! The fried chicken is much lighter than it sounds.
Garnett LeeJuly 8, 2016Southern classics rock! Fried chicken sandwich with house made pickles kills it!
You can order the Veggie Hash with scrambled eggs instead of poached. That's what I always do!- Chad Christian CliftMay 26, 2016Chad Christian Clift moved back home to his small town of Mossy Rock, Washington to start his own community restaurant there called Swanky’s.
Fabulous baked goods, great coffee, friendly staff. Recommended.
Sam SevastakisFebruary 9, 2014Not the real southern food your looking for if you want southern comfort food the greens are disappointing they don't even have vinegar sauce and I've had better grits in a Atlanta airport bar
DreMay 18, 2013The food is so-so here. You have to bus your own tables and sometimes clean up after others. Why do they deserve tips here? Too many hipster parents with hippy kids here...No desire to come again.
Haley BNovember 30, 2014Don't be rude. If it's packed wait until after you order to sit so people getting their food can have a table.
RayJuly 22, 2018The food is fine but the service is unfriendly and not helpful. It’s fried chicken and biscuits. Not much too it. Skip this overrated place and search for something different.
