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.

The food was phenomenal! The beans and rice dish was delicious, and the lemon dessert was a 10/10. The drinks were great, and the service was good. The manager checked in on us and was very attentive. My only suggestion is to inform customers when last call is. We made a later reservation since we live in Pacific Time, so we dined toward the end of the evening. I definitely recommend this restaurant—it’s a Buckhead staple!

Better for dinner. Brunch was just ok, no biscuits or cornbread. Service could have been better. Our waitress was very pleasant but probably could have used more help.
The Southern GentlemanResponded 5 days ago
We appreciate your visit and feedback. Our brunch menu aims to offer a variety of Southern classics and unique takes on Southern cuisine, and we will certainly consider your suggestions regarding biscuits and cornbread. We understand the importance of attentive service and we will make sure the team is adequately supported during busy times. We look forward to welcoming you back for a delightful experience at either brunch or dinner. Thnak you!
