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 place was a crowded venue so please coming early to make your reservation on time. The placement was weird and confusing to find but once you’re there it’s really nice. The food and drinks were great.

    Sat outside it was great, Shady table. Everything we got was amazing. We ordered quite a few things so we could taste each one and we weren’t disappointed in anything. Cocktails were damn good🌟

    The food came out very quick and not very hot, Devil eggs, made with too much mayonnaise. The fried chicken has too much batter and the cornmeal based pancakes was just warm.. my son omelet was over seasoned with salt.. the Mac and cheese came out quick however that was not heated throughly..
    The Southern GentlemanResponded on October 2, 2024
    Tania, I am sorry to hear about your experience. That's certainly not the normal situation as our food is always served hot from the kitchen. We'll be sure to keep an eye on that as well as the batter on the chicken and seasoning for the omelet. Please know if ever something you order isn't exactly as you had hoped, we want to hear about it on the spot so we can make you a new version or help you choose something else you will love. Thank you, and hopefully, you will be back soon. Next time you join us, please ask for me so I can ensure you have an excellent dining experience. Chris Lamoree, General Manager

    The kitchen and dining room were both short staffed which made the wait for our starters and food very, very long. The wait staff was very attentive and apologetic. We took our food to go and it was fabulous! The pork chop was tender and well cooked. Other that the wait for our food, the experience was very, very good!
    The Southern GentlemanResponded on September 26, 2024
    Nancy, we appreciate your feedback regarding your recent visit. We understand that a lengthy wait can be frustrating, and we are grateful for your understanding of our staff’s efforts. We take pride in delivering excellent food, so we are delighted that you enjoyed the pork chop. We will make sure those delays aren't recurring, and we look forward to impressing you in every way on your next visit. Thank you for your support.
