About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions

Aptly named for its locale, Southern Social nestles up to the old Southern Railway’s historic Germantown Depot and sits adjacent to Southern Avenue.

Owners of downtown Memphis’ Flight Restaurant and Wine Bar have opened Southern Social. The top tier fine dining restaurant will reflect the high standards established at Flight.

    We had a very nice dinner and experience at Southern Social. It’s hard to find a place that fires on all cylinders and is reasonable to boot. Thank you and please keep doing what you’re doing! Look forward to next time.

    Had the sea bass; both my wife and I. Hers was overcooked and tough; mine was undercooked and fishy. Disappointing. Have been here many times and have higher expectations than what we experienced tonight. Maybe Mondays are bad day? 5/24 - Subsequent to our meal I was contacted by Chris Cook and he inquired as to my experience very kindly and professionally. I expressed that our experiences at SS had always been exceptional and we agreed this was an exception. I’m grateful for him caring enough to ask and have no doubt their exceptional service and food will continue in the future.

    Always excellent food with friendly staff and management. I highly recommend the aunt thelma’s fried chicken and the redfish & crab for entrees.
