About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Charming
  • Great for creative cocktails
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.

    It would have been great for there to be mention that a networking event would be happening at same time. It was awkward. Cliff was an incredible waiter - he made the experience.

    Excellent southern cuisine in a modern Southern atmosphere and bar. Love all the light in the restaurant about as much as the yummy food. My son had the brisket grilled cheese and said it was excellent. I had a grilled chicken salad which I knew was a boring choice, but wanted to be healthy. The salad was delicious! Great spot for brunch / lunch!

    Went with my girlfriend. We had a wonderful experience with a nice waiter, and they even gave us a free pumpkin (or sweet potato?) pie with a candle for our anniversary and wished us a happy anniversary!
