Suckerfree Southern Plate And Bar

We had a 5pm reservation but due to traffic we were 15 minutes. The food was great. Huge portions. Keya was an excellent server. The drinks were great. The only thing was they were out of some of appetizers but they made up with it other options. Thank you. We'll be back.

Very tasty southern food. I grew up in Virginia and this qualifies as authentic Southern food, with a slight emphasis towards Cajun style southern. Apologies that the photos are all half-eaten food, normally I get pictures before digging in but I guess I wasn't able to hold back this time ;)

Everything I tried was good. I have high blood pressure so I was concerned but I had no problems with eating 1 piece of fried chicken ,bowl of greens with Turkey necks( spicy)macaroni cheese, ( nice portions of it)and the sweet yams. Personally, the yams were my least favorite. R&B music in the background. Helpful waiters.

I know..I know...are they really open?? Should you call first or just go - can you pay any attention to the opening times listed on their website or the sign outside or their menu or their fb page? Nope. They gotta do better. JUST GO!! On our 3rd try ( the 2nd was during the pandemic/holiday wknd - so perhaps that wont count) the food/cocktails AND the service was very very good. Not specifically surprising based on what past guests have shared. The wings: prepared perfectly extra well done with a tasty sauce. The fried catfish: served hot..tender and seasoned. The duck tacos: Surprise! They were delicious...dont be afraid - extremely similar to seasoned chicken thighs. That dark smokey meat and the salsa...bomb! Cocktails were on point. They pour a good drink. The bartender was attentive and friendly....and made happy hour....happier. The vibe is neo soul chill...so it's perfect for a dinner date or a casual meetup for apps & cocktails. Happy hour specials are available and should not be missed. It was def worth the wait and a 2nd or 3rd visit is already planned. Let's all try to support this business by treating them to another chance...or a first. It really is that good.

Came in for the soft opening. Brought to you by the owner of Streetcar Merchants of Chicken and Donuts. I knew I would not be disappointed. The location is on Fourth Ave across from Horton Plaza. The space has an open warehouse feel, brick walls, bench seating against the far walls and small wooden tables. The decor is a bit nostalgic- think NWA and Mr T. - if that’s what your childhood was filled with. Now to breakfast. The cocktail menu is still in the works, but they have a full bar so we just grabbed a couple of mimosas. Well made, good ratio and refreshing. My partner ordered the chicken and waffles. Since she has been a fan of Streetcar’s chicken so I knew it would be a win. The chicken is moist and juicy with a deliciously crunchy outside. The waffle was perfect. Let me be clear. Perfect. I’ll tell you why- is has a very light sweetness to it, it’s not heavy like bread, it’s light and has a perfect crunch on the outside. It’s perfect. (yes I’m a total waffle snob -I’ll own that. But credit where it’s due and they did great. ) I had the pancake flight with a side of scrambled eggs. A pancake flight! You get to choose 3 of the 10 or so available flavors. I chose red velvet, maple bourbon and spiked peach cobbler. The red velvet is made for those with a sweet tooth. The peach cobbler was a southern style cobbler and delish! The maple bourbon was just right and a great compliment to the other two flavors sweetness. The eggs were scrambled well no signs of brown and not runny. Our waitress Amber was excellent answering all our questions about the menu and the space and future plans. We are looking forward to bringing the beast to the dog friendly patio. Great first impression looking forward to many more visits! Grand opening should be in the next week or two. I look forward to attending and evening trying to host a few events here. It’s a wonderful space!
