Every item I 've ordered has been delicious. The biggest treat for me is their cheese grits. I order them anywhere that has them and these are the best. When I can splurge, I go for their fried chicken with biscuits and gravy. The skin is crispy while the meat is hot and juicy. The biscuits are a bit dough like but not at all a negative it 's akin to the doughiness of eating the top of a pot pie. And the duck sausage gravy is drool worthy. Their specials are also good, too. I recently had the brown butter tart and it 's so good by having a natural sweetness without being cloying. The ambiance is basic clean and minimalist. The sound level can go up because there is no padding and it 's just...
Brunch was going on Saturday around noon. I had the pork sandwich with fried egg and ordered sides of cheese grits and bacon. My son had the pancake. The bacon was made in house and was thick juicy with great salt meat balance. I couldn't stop having a small piece of bacon with a bite of cheese grits. The two combined were amazing creamy, cheesy, cured meat and savory salt. The pork was in small bite sized cubes and had an Asian theme. When mixed with egg and avocado the pork really came alive. There were layers of flavors accompanied by the richness of the yolk and avocado. The pancake was huge and looked like it was cooked on a Bundt cake pan. I only got a couple of bites as my son devoure...
I chose another restaurant, but it was closed, so we settled on Status Kuo. The reviews were certainly mixed, so I was a bit nervous. The wings were very tasty. Crispy and well cooked. The Sunday Gravy, albeit poorly named, was yummy. The dumplings were a bit bland, but the sauce made up for it. The Brussels sprouts (Porchetta) were as expected, the Mac and cheese was pretty good and the fries were yummy. The chocolate cake was more like a blueberry tartlet in a chocolate tart shell. That being said, it was lovely and delicious.
Status Kuo is a neighborhood gem for sure. Its food was great. Though the emphasis is on meat, I had the entrée that consisted of three veggies chosen off a long list. The portions were large and the veggies were delicious. The only drawback is that Status Kuo doesn't have a liquor license. It is expanding, and after that patrons will be able to bring their own wine or beer. Meanwhile, order take out or have a dinner without alcohol then go next door or around the corner to Grand Market (another gem) for an after-dinner drink.

The food was delicious. However, almost half the entrees were unavailable. They didn't have the tri-tip, or the fish, or the pork. That left the chicken and the steak--the most expensive item on the menu. The rotisserie chicken was great and so were the fries. But something is wrong if the kitchen is out of half the entrees at 6 p.m. on Sunday.
Reservations irrelevant here. Food takes forever to get once ordered. Staff pleasant but inattentive. The only saving grace is that the food truly is delicious.
We had a lovely dinner at Status Kuo last week. Delicious food, fresh ingredients, and a team who clearly cares about quality and customers. We'll go back.
For a new place the food was great and very inventive and on Sunday you can shop the Farmers Market!

I'm working my way through the menu. And there are always new and interesting specials.
My Husband and I really enjoyed Status Kuo. I highly recommend the whole bass.
