As a Veteran-owned business formerly Portis Kountry Kitchen the upscale southern food PKK serves iconic southern dishes that please the palate. Recently, we had guests from across the world visit and they wanted to try southern dishes that they have tried once before but have not had it for some time. The bell rang in my head instantly, and recommended PKK for dinner. I explained the cuisine and even had my son speak of his experience dining at PKK. To our surprise it was live jazz night with Joe Holland Quartet playing. We ordered everything they had since no one could make up their minds. Fried pork chops smothered with gravy, Fried Fish, Fried Chicken, collard greens, cornbread, five-cheese mac and cheese, green beans, and many slices of their sweet cornbread. We even saved room for dessert! Damn it was Good! Everything was delicious and worth the extra calories. But what made our experience so memorable was the service and the ambience. I emphasis Service because our waitress was friendly and knowledgeable. She read our vibe and stoked the fire. Amazing woman! As true foodies that we are, and one who travels here and abroad it is really nice to have a restaurant that offers good food and good service consistently. My foreign friends agree, after traveling from one city to another they mention PKK often. That is a testament of Good Ole Southern Hospitality. ”
