The Southern Gentleman is a Southern-inspired gastropub in The Buckhead Village District. The concept celebrates every aspect of what it means to be from the South with a fresh, modern take on traditional dishes made with locally sourced ingredients. The bar program explores the artistry and history of classic Southern cocktails—everything from barrel-aged cocktails to bottled libations to adult beverages on tap, along with New World wines and craft beers and the “perfect” mint julep.

The gorgeous top floor space in Buckhead Atlanta was designed by New York’s Lacina Heitler, and features classic, Southern touches done in surprising, modern ways: seersucker window treatments, tufted camel leather booths, vintage plateware, white marble countertops, vaulted ceilings, herringbone floors, dramatic chandeliers, complete with an oversized portrait of Mark Twain painted by a commissioned local artist.

    Food was good, though portion sizes are smaller than they were in the past. There is no bread service or option available other than a sweet potato cornbread to be ordered as a side item.

    A yummy dining experience! The food offers a perfect blend of flavors that truly satisfies. The ambiance is warm and inviting, making it an ideal spot for a relaxing meal with friends. The music adds to the overall vibe, with an uplifting tempo that enhance the atmosphere without being overwhelming. The sweet potato cornbread wasn’t a hit, and should be taken off the menu (in my opinion).

    Portion sizes are a little small. But food was good!
    The Southern GentlemanResponded today
    Jack, thank you for your compliments on our food and for the feedback on our portion size. We normally hear our portion sizes are very generous, but we apologize if you felt otherwise. Next time you're in, please ask your server which items are the most substantial, and we're confident you'll enjoy the portion just as much as the flavor.

    Noise level a problem. It was difficult to hold a conversation over the general noise and music
    The Southern GentlemanResponded 7 days ago
    Greg, please accept our apologies if it was too noisy while you were in. We often have a lively atmosphere but never want it to be so you can't enjoy a normal conversation during your meal. We'll be sure to keep an eye on the volume. Thank you for your feedback. We'd love another chance to show you an excellent all-around dining experience. If you can make it in, please ask for me so I can do everything necessary to ensure you have a great time. Thank you, Chris Lamoree, General Manager

    Came on a Saturday for brunch and it did not disappoint! Everything was hot, quick and soooo good! Ordered shrimp and grits, the chicken and country bread, and the short rib for the table and all were 10/10. The heated patio was amazing for a sunny December day! Will definitely be back again!
    The Southern GentlemanResponded today
    Ramata, we appreciate your wonderful review! We take pride in delivering a memorable brunch experience, and we are delighted that our shrimp and grits, chicken and country bread, and short rib exceeded your expectations. We look forward to welcoming you back soon for another brunch on the patio soon!
