Always something new & delicious
"There are always lots of yummy and new things to try each time I go. I love the Jambalaya and the Pork Belly Chili as well as the meat stack over cornbread with gravy. The workers are all really nice too and allow me to sample things so that I know what I'm paying for."

Gluten-free options that wow
"I had one bite and I was hooked! The moist super tasty muffin was gluten free — HOW??? The pork belly on cornbread was AAAAAAmazing! I usually don't get cornbread because I hate when it's dry. Not here!!! I was very pleased. Very pleased indeed."

"Best cornbread I’ve ever tasted. So full of flavor and wow it was moist. I had the loaded Mac n cheese topped by the best. pulled pork. Don’t miss it or you will truly be sorry."
"MC’s food is so good. I had the Meat Stack with Cajun chicken. Every bite melted as I ate it with this really good gravy sauce that was completely slathered over the chicken and the cornbread. I ended up buying another one with rosemary cornbread and it hit even better (but I forgot to take pics. It was too late.) I had them at the Pacific Beach Tuesday market. Something about their heartwarming food and the sea breeze hit different at the beach 😎."

"MC’s Kitchen absolutely delivered! We tried the brisket loaded mac n cheese and the sausage gravy covered cornbread, and both were incredible. The mac n cheese was rich, creamy, and packed with flavor, while the brisket was tender, smoky, and perfectly topped with BBQ sauce and green onions. The sausage gravy cornbread was pure comfort food, soft, savory, and covered in a flavorful homemade-style gravy that tasted amazing. The portions were generous, everything tasted fresh, and you can tell a lot of care goes into the food. If you’re looking for hearty Southern-style comfort food that actually lives up to the hype, MC’s Kitchen is definitely worth checking out. We’ll absolutely be back!"

"HOLY CORNBREAD!!!! Don’t walk, run to the North Park Farmers Market and get this corn bread! It will change everything you ever thought cornbread could be! And that is before the 3 cheese Mac and Cheese with Pulled Pork! This food made me forget about my morning desire to eat lite, but I have no regrets!!! Can’t wait to try everything on the menu!"
"Cornbread so diabolically delicious the fact that it’s gluten free is just an added bonus. The sweetest people every time and I cannot stress enough how insanely yummy their menu is. They will be seeing me at the North Park farmers market again period this is a threat I am coming"
"We got the loaded mac & cheese with Cajun chicken my children loved it. It’s the best mac & cheese we have tried. 100/10 !!!! "
