CC's on Central

Restaurant · Encanto

"Tucked between two office towers with limited visibility, CC’s on Central is worth the slight hunt. This mother-and-son spot, led by Sharon and chef Devan Cunningham, builds on years of experience in catering. The menu takes Southern staples and refreshes them with thoughtful updates that use bright flavors and refined techniques. The buttermilk pancakes, almost pudding-like in texture, are topped with warm brown butter syrup and seasonal fruit compote — though they don’t need much dressing to impress. Shrimp étouffée, lighter and brighter than the traditional version, balances bold shellfish stock with the gentle sweetness of bell peppers. The praline French toast, sweet and buttery with a satisfying crunch, makes a strong case for having dessert for breakfast. While the setting leans more functional than chic, CC’s delivers comforting dishes, with just enough of a personal twist." - Mcconnell Quinn, Chris Malloy, Nikki Buchanan
