text: Well I guess that satisfaction is a derivative of expectations versus outcomes and based on the very high reviews of Kings Kitchen my expectations were equally high nnGranted the concept of this restaurant is wonderful all profits go to help the homeless population and job sharing programs with the homeless help them establish greater selfconfidence and good job skills to help them get back on their feet What I wondered however was whether the mission swayed the reviews some nnBased on this being a nonprofit I assumed that this would be a holeinthe wall location with a modest environment However the setting was a little bright and loud The first thing I noticed was that my bread plate was dirty as was the one at the neighboring table where I was borrowing a replacement The biscuits they brought for the plates were good and warm but not the best I have had Our server was very friendly and explained the concept and the chariable mission which was nice background to have Unfortunately that is where the positives ended nnMy girlfriend had a stuffed pork loin at the recommendation of the waiter and I had the blackened catfish over cheese grits The pork loin was extremely dry and overcooked and the additional sauce we requested to try to make it more edible did not help much nnThe blackened catfish was decent but half of it was beyond blackened and I had to cut off a decent chunk of the fish that looked like charcoal The grits were good but its pretty hard to mess those upnnIm disappointed that I did not like this place better I really wanted it to be good and have a new place to which I could return Its a great because but at the end of the day the food has to be what brings me back I am glad to see others had better luck than we did Perhaps we just ordered the wrong things Sounds like the fried chicken is the way to go
