Reviews
"Incredibly delicious food! The hot chicken was outrageous and crispy. The warm cornbread with honey was perfect and moist! I really loved the mac and cheese also!"
"“That was so freaking good!” Was the statement by all. The pastry on the apple turnovers was perfection. The crispy catfish was perfect. The seafood Mac and cheese yum yum. The baked spaghetti was meaty! I wish I lived in Gainesville because I would eat here a lot."
"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."
"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!"
