Customer Reviews
I ordered the shrimp and grits with an over-easy egg, and it was seriously good. The portion was huge—so big that I ended up splitting it with my husband and still felt more than satisfied. The grits were creamy, smooth, and had just the right amount of cheddar mixed in. The texture was perfect—rich without being heavy. I loved the contrast between the smoky diced bacon and the crunchy bits of jalapeño, which gave the dish a nice balance of flavor and texture. The Cajun cream sauce, combined with the jalapeño, added just the right amount of heat—enough to be interesting but not overwhelming. And the shrimp were cooked exactly right: plump, bouncy, and with that satisfying little snap when you bite into them. This is the kind of comfort food that’s done really well and totally worth orde
Southern Belle’s in Barrington is fantastic! The portions are huge, the ingredients are super fresh, and everything came out piping hot, which is exactly how it should be. The pancakes were honestly some of the best I’ve ever had, and with such a big menu, there’s truly something for everyone. Great value, great food, and I’ll definitely be coming back!
Wonderful, welcoming restaurant with prompt and courteous service. The food was hot, fresh, and tasty. Portions were generous too! Definitely a place to try out if you have yet to!
This started with the question "Are Cinnabomb pancakes delicious?" The answer is yes! Southern Belle has one of the best breakfasts I have eaten. They have a wide variety of pancake, skillet and omelette options. They make their own butter and serve real maple syrup. The staff are very personable and knowledgeable about the various dishes and my server actually ate there on her days off with her daughter. She was able to make excellent recommendations about add-ons that I could make to my dish to get even more deliciousness. Very family friendly. This place is a definite must do.
Unsanitary conditions. They do not clean their fruit properly nor does the BOH wear gloves when handling food. Received blueberries with FINGERPRINTS on them indicating they were grabbed with bare hands and were not properly washed. They also do not serve real maple syrup, they put high fructose pancake syrup in a real maple syrup glass bottle. This is surprising since they already try to upcharge for everything (swapping berries for fruit, swapping side pancakes for French toast, even though they are both 11.99 on the menu), you’d think they’d want to offer real maple syrup for an upcharge.
