“4.8⭐️I’m not sure what to say Matt…Your Macs was SMACKIN bruh!!! First timer here, and I didn’t know what to do. So I stood and waited off to the side for them to finish cooking so I could place my order. But Spider-Man was on the tv… so I might’ve completely zoned into that for a bit ? so when the young lady asked what the name on my order was, I just said I was waiting to order. She was like “Oh I’m so sorry!” Not her fault at all, like I said, I was too into the tv. I got the hubbs a regular BBQ chicken, and I got a regular Chicken Bacon Parm.I’m gonna be real guys, I’m not even a Mac n cheese lover. I like it, but it’s not a #1 pick for me. My husband it the Mac n cheese connoisseur.OH MY GODI don’t know what I’d add to that to make it better. We tried each others food, and THEY WERE BOTH AMAZING! The regular is big enough to share, idk who could finish a double. The prices are definitely fair. Thankfully I don’t live far, but I would drive to try this. Highly recommend. I wish the owner was there so I could’ve gotten a pic of them. But you’re doing a great job Matt! Can’t wait to try them all. ?“

“4.4⭐️My husbands coworker recommended this place and told us to make sure to try the deviled eggs. I do really like deviled eggs, so of course we ordered them. Very good, We cleaned that plate! We both got drinks. My husband got the Bloody Mary, I got the Peaches peaches peaches peaches peaches.I haven’t been drinking for about 5 months. WHOA WAS THAT STRONG. My husband said his Bloody Mary was strong too but I didn’t think so, not as strong as my drink anyway. I didn’t finish it.For food, my husband ordered the country fried steak, and I got the shrimp n grits. Both were very good! I’m not sure what sauce they put on the shrimp n grits but it wasn’t super spicy, the grits were kinda chunky, the shrimp was BIG. It was very good. And my husband said the gravy on his country fried steak was AMAZING, And wants to go back just to try the biscuits and gravy. I want to try the pizza! The only thing I didn’t enjoy was my drink, but that might be because my alcohol tolerance is super low. And my husband said the only thing he didn’t care for was the potatoes that came with his meal. But overall, we both enjoyed the brunch and would definitely recommend Kismet to anyone looking for a good brunch!“

“Came to check it out and overall great spot with good food. Staff was friendly and service was prompt, even being peak time. Coffee was good and grabbed a seat at the community table (which meant no wait). Menu is extensive and covers typical American fare for breakfast and lunch. Got the breakfast tacos and swapped thr beans for potatoes. While it all tasted great the potatoes were on the salty side. For the tacos and just adding jalapeños doesn't denote flavor or mean is "southwest". Still great spot and would come back.“

No problem, they were very polite and apologetic about it! The wait was totally worth it - the burgers were great and the fries were delicious! They even numbered our burgers on the foil around them and on the receipt so we knew whose was whose. 10/10 would recommend. Thank you!“

“3.9⭐️My husband wined and dined me!We decided on fin last minute, and when we got there we also decided on the 7 course tasting menu last minute. I am not a fancy person at all, but this was nice! One thing I’m not used to, the waiter giving new utensils for every plate! I was like “oooo this is fancy!The service was awesome! I cannot say anything bad about the service. The food… was either hit or miss, let me explain.Course 1- Tuna Tartare, it was so good! The sriracha ice cream was great with it.Course 2- Shrimp and grits, it’s was … pretty sweet. I didn’t think it was bad, I enjoyed it. My husband said it tasted like pancake syrup ? so he wasn’t a big fan.Course 3- Crab cake, damn was this good! If I was to go back, I would order the crab cakes.Course 4- Grilled Octopus, no ??‍♀️ not a fan. It was pretty chewy, and the black beans it came with were so hard, we were confused on if they cooked the beans or not. I just moved them to the side and didn’t eat them.Course 5- Scallops, not bad. I’m not a big fan of scallops, but both tasting menus had them so I couldn’t avoid them.Course 6- Australian Wagyu Ribeye Cap, this was very good! The steaks was cooked perfectly, just yes.Course 7- Chocolate cake with cherry ice cream, SUCH A GOOD ENDING! I’ve never had cherry ice cream but I loved it!Overall I’m glad we got the 7 course, and not the 5. The food wasn’t bad, but I now I feel like I’ve tried everything I want to try from here, and it’s a more expensive meal. So did I enjoy my meal? Yes, me and my husband had a great date night. We didn’t enjoy each course, but the experience was a good one. Would we go back? Probably not. But I would recommend the restaurant if you’re in the area.“
