This was our first time at South City Kitchen and I must say it is our new favorite restaurant in Atlanta! The food was exceptional, but more important was the excellent service and warmth that Jordan provided throughout our experience. He was attentive, personable, and professional, ensuring every detail was taken care of. His warm demeanor and genuine commitment to excellent service made our meal all the more enjoyable. Jordan is a true asset to the restaurant, and we would be delighted to have him serve us again!!

I went on a Thursday night and it was very nice. Food & drinks were good, very nice atmosphere, and great service. Nyla was amazing!!! She definitely made my birthday dinner even better. I will definitely return. The free parking automatically added 100 points before I even walked in. Definitely add to your list of restaurants to try.

Only my second visit to Buckhead location for South City Kitchen and their Food at dinner just knocked my socks off! Genesis was a very attentive server, despite slow bar service, but food was fantastic! We started with fried green tomatoes and deviled eggs. that were best I ever tasted!

My experience at Marcus Bar & Grille was absolutely AMAZING! From the delicious food to the incredible drinks, everything was on point! What truly made the experience exceptional was our waiter, Patrick! His outstanding customer service, attentiveness, and warm personality made our dining experience even more memorable. He truly went above and beyond! I thoroughly enjoyed my visit and will definitely be back again soon! Highly recommend!

The experience at Two Urban Licks was amazing. We had a group of 6 and sat outside. The noise level was great. The service was amazing. We never wanted for anything. The servers went the extra mile with hospitality and service. The food was even better. I would give it a 5 out of 5 across the board. We had the Salmon chips and then a variety of main dishes and 4 different sides. Every one of the guests in our group commented on how great the food was. Three of those group members run their own restaurants, so great praise from them. Thank you for a great experience. I will come back next time I am in Atlanta.

The food was absolutely delicious! My husband had the short rib and I had the peach pork chop. The mashed sweet potatoes were amazing. The live entertainment (Jabari G. Trio) was wonderful and took breaks after a few songs so you can still enjoy conversation at the table. Delicious variety of cocktails. Definitely worth a visit.

    As always, Poor Calvin's was wonderful. Our server was great and so knowledgeable about the bar and food menus. Every drink and every single bite of food was top tier and I already can't wait to go back.
