Customer Reviews
I ordered my dinner 1.5 hours ahead of time. The service via phone was outstanding and food was delivered to my car so quickly. Instructions were easy to pay and the food was delicious! Credit, debit and cash accepted. I ordered from the regular menu and the weekly specials. I saw the menu on the Facebook page. Crispy catfish and Alfredo pasta was chef's kiss! Blacked catfish and collard greens, roasted ribeye was so big and full of flavor, and the pork chop was moist and delicious. We came on from Orlando and the food was so yummy. When you pickup park by the garden and you can easily see the UK for the building.
I can’t rave enough about how fabulous this food is! Pickup only- call early because Chef Watts does run out and you want to get your order in! His proteins are perfect but honestly the sides are so phenomenal I almost don’t need the main protein- I could eat my body weight in the greens- they are DIVINE. Seafood Mac is delicious. This place is a Gainesville gem.
The food is delicious! Can’t believe it was my first time trying just yesterday! We ordered the Blackened Salmon and the Shrimp and Grits. ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS! Everything was so hot and just good. The seafood Mac and cheese 🤤🤤. I love that they have a garden and get a lot of the veggies they use in their dishes from there! I will definitely be going back!
I am over the moon for the Underground Kitchen! Incredible food, Carl is a joy, and my coworkers and I can't stop raving about the taste, quality, and price! Definitely give them a try, and check out their wonderful program for aspiring chefs. They are an asset to the community, and if I could give more stars, I sure would. I ate my seafood mac and cheese before getting a photo, but I promise you, it's as delicious and gorgeous looking as the rest of the food I did get photos of. Seriously, try them!
The food came out amazing we ordered collard greens with neck bone and the seafood Mac and cheese. I would love to try the baked Mac and cheese next! 5/5 very authentic place seeing the garden was super cool. Food was ready on time and hot! Thank you!!!!
