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.

    Better for dinner. Brunch was just ok, no biscuits or cornbread. Service could have been better. Our waitress was very pleasant but probably could have used more help.

    Wonderful restaurant that puts a spin on Southern tradition. The food is tasty and well seasoned. Some dishes weren’t as hot, but they all were good and portioned well. Appetizers: Fried Green Tomatoes, nicely fried with a good crunch and has a sweet taste with a brown sugar/maple coating. Didn’t care for the pimento cheese as much (8/10); Gouda Mac and Cheese is great. Thick and cheesy, no complaints (10/10). Entree’s— Buttermilk Fried Chicken, 2 boneless thighs (for my dark meat lovers). It comes boneless and is fried well, not greasy. The Sweet Potato Cornbread is a favorite, tastes like a moist cake. The collard greens are smoked, so if you don’t like a powerful punch of flavor it might not be for you. The atmosphere is intimate, but slightly noisy depending on the crowds. The lighting is very dim in the evening, so needed a flashlight to read the menu. Staff emphasizes “Southern hospitality” and will treat you like family and with respect. Great service overall.

    We both got salads and the protein was extremely dry on both salads.
    The Southern GentlemanResponded today
    Thank you for joining us and for taking the time to provide this feedback. We are sorry to hear you didn't feel everything was perfect. Our salads are very popular, but we will certainly keep an eye on the protein to make sure it is moist and delicious. 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 for what we're certain will be an excellent dining experience.

    The hostess and our server Shannon were truly phenomenal. The hostess set the tone for the restaurant, she was not only beautiful but very helpful in selecting our seating and telling us about the menu. I will definitely be back with more friends. Learning the restaurant has been in the same space for 10 years was shocking, but after seeing the space, meeting the servers and managers and tasting the food I understand why. Well done Southern Gentleman!!
    The Southern GentlemanResponded 5 days ago
    CherSang, we appreciate your kind words about our hostess and Shannon. It's great to know you received exceptional service. We take pride in our lasting presence in the community and the quality of our offerings. We look forward to welcoming you and your friends back someday soon. Thank you!
