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 Southern Gentleman offers a warm and inviting atmosphere that sets the tone for a great dining experience. The food was flavorful and well-prepared, though the portion sizes could be a bit more generous to better match the price point. What truly made our visit stand out was our server Shannon — exceptional in every way. Attentive, friendly and genuinely invested in making our evening special. Overall, a very enjoyable experience made memorable by outstanding service.

Ean was the bartender and server. He was absolutely amazing at both. The atmosphere was perfect for 3 ladies grabbing a bite and celebrating a late birthday together prior to a play. The food was delivered fast and was extremely tasty. Definitely will continue to visit .

Very difficult to find their garage for free parking. They should give you its name and address for your GPS. Had to park at a different garage and walk to the restaurant. Excellent food especially the short ribs which was not full of fat. Server personable and fun. Long time to get the desert.
The Southern GentlemanResponded on June 5, 2025
Barry, it's great to hear how much you enjoyed our Braised Short Rib "Pot Roast." Thank you for letting us know. We apologize if you had any difficulties finding the parking garage. We'll see what we can do about providing clearer directions for that. We'll also keep an eye on the timing of the dessert. Hopefully we'll have another chance to serve you soon and it will be an excellent experience in every way.

A Perfect Birthday Dinner at The Southern Gentleman We celebrated my wife’s birthday at The Southern Gentleman in Atlanta’s Buckhead area, and the experience was unforgettable from start to finish. Nestled in one of the city’s most elegant neighborhoods, the restaurant exudes Southern charm with a refined twist — making every guest feel like royalty. The food was absolutely incredible. We ordered a variety of dishes, each more impressive than the last. The fried green tomatoes were crisp and flavorful, a perfect Southern starter. The buttermilk Southern fried chicken paired with sweet potato cornbread was rich, comforting, and downright to die for. The shrimp and grits, served with a unique pimento cheese and smoky tomato-based sauce, offered a creative and delicious spin on a classic. And the pork chop? Absolutely the star of the evening — tender, juicy, and perfectly seasoned. The Southern Lemonade cocktail was the ideal pairing: citrusy, lightly sweet, and dangerously smooth. Service was flawless — warm, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. The ambience and lighting were beautifully curated, creating a calm, intimate setting. Soft music played in the background, and the noise level was perfect, allowing for meaningful conversation and full engagement with our guests. Whether it’s a first date, anniversary, family dinner, or friends' night out, this place delivers. It’s also located in a high-end shopping district, making it easy to enjoy a post-dinner stroll and indulge in some retail therapy. Highly recommended — we’ll absolutely be back.

Thank you for joining us for your wife's birthday, Charles. It's wonderful to hear you enjoyed your dining experience so much, and we truly appreciate your excellent review. We can't wait to have you back for another meal we hope you'll enjoy just as much!
