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.

    Noise level a problem. It was difficult to hold a conversation over the general noise and music
    The Southern GentlemanResponded 1 day 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

    Maybe i should’ve tried dinner . The steak tar tar had heavy mayonnaise and horse radish and the puffs were cold . Dessert taste like everything in the fridge . and the espresso martini taste like old coffee

    Thank you again for your feedback, Richana. Even though we've been in touch privately, I wanted to reiterate my apologies here. I hope we have the opportunity to serve you again someday, for what I'm confident will be an excellent dining experience. Chris Lamoree, General Manager

    Delicious brunch to celebrate our daughter’s birthday! We enjoyed everything: hush puppies appetizer, egg white omelette, 3 meat omelette, avocado toast, bacon, egg and cheese croissant. Potatoes and grits were excellent too. I don’t think there’s a wrong choice on the menu. Attentive service and lovely ambience. Will be back!

    Pamela, thank you for choosing us for that celebration. We're pleased to know you and your guests enjoyed your brunch. We look forward to having you back soon!

    Great food and drinks. My wife and I had a date night. Service was great. It was a little loud with the music and folks talking loud, but we had a table in the back with really comfortable chairs! I just wished I lived closer and I would go more often. Definitely will be back soon though!
    The Southern GentlemanResponded on December 3, 2024
    Andrew, we are happy to know you and your wife enjoyed our food, drinks, and service. We recognize that noise levels can sometimes rise, but we are pleased you had a table conducive to a nice date night. We'll be sure to keep our ear on the volume moving forward. Thank you for sharing your experience, and we look forward to welcoming you and your wife back soon!

    My skillet cake was cold this time but didn’t send it back because it was end of brunch
    The Southern GentlemanResponded on December 3, 2024
    Nichole, I apologize if your skillet cake was not at the proper temperature. I wish we had known as we would have been happy to make you a new one regardless of it being close to the end of our brunch service. I would love to apologize directly next time you are in and make sure you have an outstanding experience in every way. Please ask for me, and I hope to see you soon. Thank you.

    This place was really good. The food was a 10/10, I had the shrimp and grits and they were so good! Our server was super sweet and even gave great recommendations. The only downfall was trying to find the actual restaurant, which was so confusing. Overall this place was a 10/10, and I would definitely come back.
    The Southern GentlemanResponded on December 3, 2024
    Thank you so much for the kind review, Aymaya. It's wonderful to see how much you enjoyed your visit, and we hope you will visit us again someday soon!
