50Kitchen

First time visiting, but won’t be the last. Loved the food with unique flavorful dishes you won’t find anywhere else. Food arrived quickly and hot. I also appreciate that the menu gave very detailed descriptions especially since I’m not familiar with an Asian fused soul food menu.

Couldn’t decided what to order because every combo appeared delicious. Ordered enough to sample. Now we’ll order the rest of the menu for a future return visit.

Currently open on Saturdays.

I'm not surprised there aren't any reviews yet, as this restaurant is only open Saturdays 12-8 right now, but holy cow, do try them out.

Our family went last Saturday and the food was spectacular. Our boys got the chicken and waffle sliders w rosemary infused syrup and apple butter - they loved them. I got the 50K sandwich, which was so delicious I made everyone take a bite. BBQ pork with Asian pear slaw and cilantro on an insanely yummy grilled brioche bun...heaven. My husband really enjoyed the St. Louis ribs and the sides. All in all - outstanding. The couple that runs the places are super nice - we got complimentary honey fried cornbread, which my 12 year old said was the best cornbread he'd ever had, and I had to agree.

The restaurant is in the pop-up space of the Blue Dogwood Public Market. I was afraid we would't find parking, but was pleasantly surprised to find several spots in a little lot right in back of the Market on Rosemary St. The current space is used by several new culinary ventures, and it's fun and funky. They are hoping to get their own space soon. Try them out now while there's no wait!

JUST what Chapel Hill has been missing! Asian Southern fusion done right. Banh mi and 50K chicken sandwich were standouts, but don’t sleep on the jambalaya egg rolls. Absolutely will be coming back.

50Kitchen has become a fast favorite, and we have visited every Saturday since they opened. The owners are an incredible, friendly, and welcoming family, and the food is truly among the best. We have tried almost everything on the current menu and have enjoyed all of it. If nothing else, the honey fried cornbread is a dangerously delicious treat and a must have. We will be back soon!

This restaurant is amazing! They're only open on Saturdays currently, but this is my third meal with them in three weeks. Everything on the menu continues to top the previous meal. The brisket on the sliders and banh mi is to die for. The honey fried cornbread might be my new favorite food of my life. The grits are the cheesiest I've ever tried. Do yourself a favor and try them ASAP!
