The Glass Onion

At this restaurant, 5-star Southern food inspired by local ingredients is being served at 1-star prices. The fried chicken with collard greens and mashed potatoes is tender and "pull-apart good," according to Guy Fieri. For Buddy Valastro, the shrimp-and-grits plate is a winner. A sausage-studded gravy elevates this Southern staple into a “luscious dish with layers of flavor,” Buddy says.
