  • replying to u/Lost_sidhe: Stowaway is on the top of my "I NEED" to try list. Every time I've gone by they're closed for extenuating circumstances. Their menu looks amazing.

    They’re great! Amazing hush puppies and cocktails.

  • replying to u/insomniaspeedmetal: As an ex-pat southerner, I feel like your partner is gonna be mega bummed with the quality of biscuits here. With that said, Stowaway in Greenpoint has some dope biscuits and gravy.

    this is the only place that I think could legitimately hold it’s own against the resultants done there. It wouldn’t be top of the top but it wouldn’t be noticeable worse. And their hushpuppies are 🔥🔥

  • Theyre an all day cafe, amazing southern style breakfast (think shrimp and grits, biscuits and gravy) if thats not your speed they do great martinis and have an oyster happy hour from 4-6! Cant recommend enough.

  • replying to u/carnimiriel: I haven't tried their shrimp and grits but Stowaway makes a decent biscuit. Kellogg's has been inconsistent but I've had a good biscuit from them too, so try your luck. Their country fried steak is usually good though. Like others have said though, there's not really any good Southern food in NYC. Just good enough for when you're craving something.

    Seconding Stowaway, they also have other southern specials like fried catfish and red beans and rice!
