Southern, a Gathering Place Kitchen & Bar

This restaurant is phenomenal and I wish every restaurant had the quality of food that’s coming out of the kitchen at Southern! I love the fact that they fry in beef tallow and according to their menu are trying to become seed oil free. Not only do you get amazing food with complex flavors but you have the joy of supporting local farmers and a local restaurant. When we leave Southern we’re always thinking we can’t wait to go back. Lila was an exceptional server tonight and we enjoyed everything about our dining experience. I’d love to see a Southern weekend brunch because man, I know they’d do it so well! If you want absolutely amazing food that you can feel good about eating, that’s truly nourishing your body while pleasing your palate, then don’t delay, visit Southern, a gathering place.

I’d been wanting to come here for a while now. I chose it for my birthday and was impressed! I enjoyed the shrimp & scallop grits and my boyfriend got the pork chop which was out of this world. Can’t wait to go back!

As outlandish as it may sound, restaurants and chefs like those at Southerns exemplify why we cherish freedom and the spirit of a civilized society. The artistry and passion evident in every dish are truly remarkable. My scallop and grits dish was a masterclass in both flavor and texture.

I have traveled the world and dined at Michelin-starred establishments, yet Southerns is only the second restaurant where I felt compelled to personally thank the chef for an unforgettable meal. Chef Ashley, who is also one of the owners, should be immensely proud of the extraordinary cuisine she creates for her guests. Truly exceptional. Her son was also our wa

This was our first time here and we were extremely happy with our choice. We were quickly shown to our table, and our first impressions were very positive. The decor and the ambience were lovely. Our server was prompt, and explained the menu and the farm-to-table process, etc. The menu changes daily and there were loads of great choices. The food was excellent, possibly the best cooked piece of fish (Golden Tile) I have ever had. Presentation was good, the pineapple salsa and potatoes were a great accompaniment. I also had a cup of the butternut squash soup which was delicious. It's a cozy space, so make sure you have reservations. This is not fast food and it's not inexpensive - but trust me, it's worth it! A menu that changes daily, with ingredients that you will not see elsewhe
