Fodor's Review:

Good Southern cooking is such a novelty in Seattle that the three sisters who own and operate Kingfish are local celebrities. Here you can get a good po'boy with green tomatoes, fried chicken, pulled pork, scrumptious crab cakes, and, of course, sweet potato pie. The place is spare but elegant, with photographs culled from family albums. Be prepared to wait for a table at dinner.

Totally yummy dinner. Best collards I have ever had, and I come from a long line of Southern cooks and have lived in Charleston and elsewhere in the South. Succotash was amazing. Fried chicken was not the best ever, but good enough. Plus, the waitstaff is super nice.
