Located in the heart of Downtown Pompano Beach, South Bar & Kitchen is a contemporary Southern American concept with a heavy Louisiana influence, infusing Cajun and Creole flavors in a tantalizing way. Bringing people together is at the heart of everything South has to offer, from the community patio with a centerpiece tree adorned with sparkling lights to the meat smoker that not only warms our food but introduces a nostalgic feeling.

    The service from Alyssa was so poor that the manager,Jacob, was helping her, because we sat there for 30 minutes before we knew who our waitress was, we would ask for a fork, a lemon, drink and she would forget and stray away from our table so we could not get her attention. This job is not her calling, because if it was an off day for her it still would have been better service. Other than the service, (that Jacob helped to save at the end of brunch)the experience was good the food was good(the bacon jam slider was outstanding) it was great to be able to taste all different kinds of food that was on the menu. The grits for the shrimp n grits was not grits. The steak shrimp and chicken were all seasoned very well. I recommend the brunch, just ask for another waitress.

    The outside seating area is chilled and has great atmosphere. Service was fantastic. The unlimited brunch was great. Being able to just order anything and everything to share made for a great brunch

    We made reservations for a date night here on Friday. We've never been, but based on the menu and reviews, we decided to give it a try. The ambiance is nice and reminds me of a location in New Orleans...but I think that's the point, as the menu favors this style of food, too. We were please with how good everything tasted, including the desert. Service was a bit slow to initially bring out the first appetizer, but after that, the rest came quickly. We will DEFINITELY return to try a few other things on the menu!

    On Sundays, there’s a brunch experience $49.99 unlimited food and $25 I believe, bottomless mimosas .. SERVICE was horrible. It just was too chaotic. It took 25 minutes just to get a mimosa.. our waitress insisted on biscuits and watermelon as our starters when we insisted we were ready to order and did not want that. When we mentioned our bottomless mimosas she insisted on bringing us waters. It took 30 min to receive our second drink and a total of 50 minutes for us to receive our “starters”. The blue crab beignets were DELICIOUS but unfortunately I had to nip it out the bud and ask for the manager and leave completely. It is just too much spent for subpar food And small tapas (yes, I know what tapas mean).

    Service was slow! Our server acted as if we weren’t there! Had to ask multiple times for missing food. Highly disappointed. Would not recommend and would not return!

    Unfortunately, our visit to South was not great. We arrived twenty minutes early, for an early reservation at 4:45, because we had a show to go to. It took twenty minutes to get any beverages. The soft drinks were flat. It seemed we’d arrived during a server shift change. My short rib and grits were fine, but my son’s pasta dish was small, and my wife’s shrimp po boy had unseasoned shrimp, old veggies, and a really stale loaf of bread. Mostly inedible. Her Cajun French fries were decent. Service was slow throughout, from a bored and perfunctory server. The meal took over 1.5 hours, despite there being only three tables seated inside. There was no manager visible the entire visit. One and done.
