About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Good for business meals
  • Good for groups
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 packed!! And noisy at 1:00 but it calmed down by 1:30. Our reservation was not ready when we arrived, but then we wanted to wait for a table on the patio so we enjoyed a drink at the bar. Great bloodymary!! The patio was lovely and quiet. It was nice to watch people streaming by outside in their Easter best. I ordered the “fritter” appetizer. I didn’t like it. It just tasted like filling. My husband ordered the hush puppies and there were 6 of them and they were huge! Nice sauce with them. Overall a good experience. I’d go again with a reservation for the patio.

    The staff at Southern Gentleman are all incredible. Chris and Ian are some of the best bartenders in Atlanta, Michaela and Chris are incredible managers, and Shannon has to be the best waitress in the world.

    This is my second time at The Southern Gentleman, and it wasn't as great as I remembered. We we sat ~25 minutes after our reservation time, which ultimately impacted our free 2-hr parking validation. The server was great, but the food was just good. The entree portions were very small, as if it were a tasting. My other guests expressed similar sentiments, as we were still a bit hungry as we left the restaurant. The mashed potatoes were salty, and my other guest's sweet potatoes were too sweet. I believe the food would have still had a great flavor profile without the excess salt and sugar added. Overall, I enjoyed my experience. But there were just a couple of things worth noting.
    The Southern GentlemanResponded 7 days ago
    Jakari, thank you for being a return guest. I'm happy to know you've enjoyed your previous meal, but please accept my apologies if everything was not perfect on your most recent visit. We pride ourselves on consistent excellence, and your recent visit should have been just as good as always. If possible, please email me with the date you joined us and your reservation name so I can investigate what may have happened, ensure it doesn't happen again, and see what we can do to give you another chance to impress us. I hope to hear from you, Chris Lamoree, General Manager

    Cliff, our server, was great and attentive. We went for my dad’s birthday, it was everyone’s first time, & we were not disappointed. All the food was extremely delicious, we all got four different dishes. We’ll be back for sure.
