Kirkwood Kravingz: Takeout & Kocktails

My friend suggested we go here one day during the week. I was very excited to try them out especially since they were in the area I grew up in. I will start with my cons and end with my pros. Cons: the lady put my order in as take out without asking me so I ended up waiting over an hour for my food. Since I didn’t know, my food sat on the counter for a good minute and was eventually mistakenly handed to another customer that ordered to go. The lady that took the order was nice enough to bring the food back in but the lady behind the counter thought it would then be okay to walk that same god that the lady walked out the door with and opened, to me as I was sitting at the table… 😩 next issue, the snapper wrap was a waste of money. It was very scaly and had little actual amounts of fish. Lastly, my salad that I ate for lunch the next day had a spot of mold… Pros: after me addressing my order what was surprisingly brought to me after being walked out the door and opened, I did not get any push back (as I was hoping). A guy walked over and apologized for the incident even though the woman never did. They have $5 happy hour on select drinks daily. The nachos were pretty good and my family enjoyed their food. The inside is small but the atmosphere was nice. The service was pleasant and they were patient with me ordering. Overall, it was a good experience and I intend to continue visiting and trying other menu items.

This restaurant opened around Jun 2025. I’m very impressed with the interior including the bathroom. The chicken sandwich was juicy, delicious, and huge. Service was great. I put 4 stars in atmosphere because with music was too loud.

I absolutely love Kirkwood Kravingz! I’ve visited every night they’re open because the food is always hot, fresh, and cooked to order-just the way I like it. While I wait, I enjoy their happy hour (5-8), especially the $5 margaritas (you can even add a flavor for just $1 more!). The atmosphere is always welcoming. Since I was born and raised in Kirkwood, I often run into old friends and neighbors, which makes the experience even more special. We catch up over good drinks and even better vibes. It’s funny, I’ve ordered the Zone 6 Margarita so many times that I’ve given it a nickname: “Keke from Kirkwood “. If you’re ever in the area or just looking for a spot with awesome, affordable food, stop by Kirkwood Kravingz. Be sure to see Nia and Bethany behind the bar for a great drink, and tell them I sent you!

Historic back drop to some timeless and soulful food. I enjoyed my experience and loved how tasty the wings I had were. They are setting a great example for restaurants for generations to come.

If I could give this grilled snapper sandwich more than 10 stars, I would. Actually, scratch that—it’s a solid 20/10!!! And the sweet potato fries? OMG!! If you’re not ordering this, then what are you doing??!!! My only question is what will I order next time, cause I’ll definitely be back 😋😋😋😋

Absolutely delicious. Food is delicious, the staff is welcoming, love the look inside. Have been here 3 times already brought our family from Houston and Austin here and they loved it. Love the red snapper sandwich and fries! They love the fried shrimp And fries!

Food was great, definitely some of the best wings I had in a while. Crispy like they needed to be and can with the a little extra sauce. Price was on point as well I’ll be back !

Very classless and inconsistent. Walked in ask for menu i was pointed to a screen that was all black. Once she finally stop talking and cut the screen on i order 10 hot lemon pepper chicken wings combo price stated $14 she instead priced gauge and charged me $17 with not any mention or signage the price would be different from menu. I did not mention anything about price. I waited about 20 min for my food. There was no lemon pepper on it. I kind stated that, she took my box and put it on literally 3 chicken wings. I ask if i could have it tossed or just more sprinkles. I was told to get more Of what i order i would need to pay for extra seasoning. This is when i informed her she had already PRICE GAUGED me of an extra $3. She then stated her name is Alexus she is the owner and their prices went up i could pay extra or get a refund. I caused no further commotion as i have been working in the kirkwood area for years and this is not how we treat our patrons and customer. They are new to kirkwood and we were trying to support with the tasteless attitude and how the owner sat at the register and talk down on several employees while i waited on food. This is not the environment i would ever promote again. Kirkwood community think twice about greasing their pockets AND CHECK YOUR RECEIPTS!

Had the best experience here. Parking is right in front and the establishment is attached to a gas station. The pumps are out front. This restaurant is so cute and it is decorated really nicely. It wasn't crowded and the orders are made to go, but you can sit inside and eat too. We were greeted immediately upon entering. The Kirkwood area is one of those areas where you can walk to everything. It's super cute too. Alexis advised us we could sit, but would need to order at the counter. The menu is accessed by a QR code on the table. Our food only took about 10-15 minutes to be ready. I got the nachos with grilled lemon pepper shrimp and sweet chili Doritos. It was amazing. Best nachos I have ever had. Alexis let us know she was the owner and also the owner of Southern Queenz. The staff we interacted with were so kind and helpful. We will definitely come back. For this spot to be new, they operate like pros who have been in business years and years.
