Screen Door Restaurant Review: The chefs at this outpost for Southern cooking follow the farm fresh credo to use what’s in season and local. The setting is somewhat stark and industrial but friendly service warms up the atmosphere. There’s also a nice covered patio for summer months. Many regulars invariably order the buttermilk-fried chicken, deep-fried catfish, or tangy pulled pork sandwich with crisp sweet potato fries, but check the daily “Local, Organic” list for an always appealing half-dozen seasonal sides and salads. Order the Screen Door Plate and try three sides with a square of fresh cornbread. Offerings may include strawberry and pluot salad with fennel, basil and hazelnuts, a marinated beet and romaine salad with citrus accents, and a roasted mushroom tart with caramelized onions. Or choose from the standing list of sides including mashed sweet potatoes and tart coleslaw. Desserts include decadent pies, such as milk chocolate cream, strawberry-coconut, or Creole pecan. Iced tea is the traditional Southern drink and there's plenty available, as well as local beer, a small wine list, and a fun cocktail selection. |
