American comfort · Seasonal · Scratch kitchen

Comfort food worth leaving the house for.

A small kitchen in the neighborhood cooking the food we grew up on — fried chicken with hot honey, short rib over grits, whatever the farms send us that week. Made from scratch, served without fuss.

The Farish House

"We came for the fried chicken and stayed until they turned the lights up. That's just the kind of place it is."

Our story

One small room, a lot of butter.

I opened The Farish House in 2017 with a borrowed mixer and a stubborn idea — that a neighborhood deserves a place where the food tastes like someone actually cares about it. No white tablecloths, no tweezers. Just good cooking and a warm room.

Almost everything here starts from scratch. We bake the bread, we pickle the pickles, we break down whole animals and chase down the farms two towns over for the vegetables. The menu changes when the season tells it to, not when a printer says so.

Come as you are — straight from work, with the kids, on a first date, or alone with a book at the bar. We saved you a seat.

— Chef Maria Santos, owner

What people say

★★★★★

"The short rib over grits is the best thing I've eaten all year, and I do not say that lightly. We sat at the bar, the staff treated us like regulars by dessert, and we'll be back next week."

"Found this place by accident on a Tuesday and now it's our spot. The fried chicken with hot honey is unreal and the cornbread should be illegal. Cozy, unpretentious, real food."

"Took my parents here for their anniversary and it hit that rare sweet spot — special enough to feel like an occasion, relaxed enough to actually enjoy. Maria came by the table herself."
