About this business
This happening Midtown joint really packs them in, and is quickly garnering a reputation as a can't-miss destination on the local dining scene. The best way to describe the food is creatively modern Southern, but that doesn't really do it justice. The kitchen turns out such remarkable signature dishes as seafood bisque with sherry and scallops over stone ground grits with garlic gravy. Make reservations early on theater nights, as space fills up quickly. South City Kitchen surely promises a different spin on Southern cuisine... read more

Loud but delicious – I've visited South City many times over the years and it has become one of my favorite restaurants in Atlanta. It is an ideal place to dine immediately before or after a visit to the High Museum, Alliance, or other adjacent cultural opportunities. The staff is sensitive to the needs of those in a hurry to make a rising curtain. Personal favorites include include the chicken liver and corn appetizer, sinfully rich she-crab soup, and the grilled shrimp and scallops over stone-ground grits in garlic gravy. ... read more
Over-rated – I went to South City Kitchen for the first time. Had high expectations but was disappointed. First, we made reservations on the patio. It was a friend's birthday and we told the hostess. However, we waited 20 minutes and instead were placed upstairs (inside) where it was very noisy. Our waiter was haughty and impatient. The wine was good, but way overpriced. I got the quail as an appetizer and it was slightly raw. I also had the trout as the main dish and it was bland. A friend had the Jambalya which was excelle... read more
Has to be one of my faves in ATL for consistency. Great food, good prices, consistent service. Never disappointed. Some menu items are classic by now- fried chicken, crab hash, et al. Bravo.
So consistently good – Every time I eat here, I'm amazed that the food is just as good as the last time. I hadn't been for 1 1/2 years and somehow just kind of forgot about it. Well, guess what, the food is still damn good!
Good eats! – Just plain good, what else can be said. Another little known, but growing spot is Vinocity Wine Bar and Rest. Excellent!
food that isn't art – Brunch here is expensive but delicious! The service is always excellent. My fiance and I try to make a monthly after church brunch visit. parking can be a bit of a pain, but worth the hassle.
One of my favorites – I've eaten in a bunch of restaurants in Atlanta and this is one of my favorites. The fried chicken is great, and the chicked livers are as well. The sous chef is great and even brought my table a complementary appetizer one night. The bartenders are always friendly!
Thumbs Up From a Native – Born and raised Atlantan (an endangered species), I always love a trip to South City. The food is delicious, but innovative (though don't think this is how we all eat!). If you've never had them, try the fried green tomatoes; otherwise branch out to the shrimp and onion beignets. Shrimp and scallops over grits takes me back to hot, lazy evenings vacationing in Charleston, while the fried chicken transports me to my grandmother's farm in south Georgia. Definitely a bit pricey, but worth it if you wan... read more
good food but too loud – The food here was great but go somewhere else if you want to actually talk to your date. Be prepared for the extremely high prices!
