Our server Sarah was friendly, very attentive, and one of the best servers I’ve seen in a long time

Our chef was amazing! Best one we ever had! We were sat right away it was quick and fun.

Our 20th wedding anniversary celebration was truly unforgettable. Every staff member greeted us with warm congratulations, and they even prepared a special customized menu just for our anniversary, which touched our hearts. The champagne was served at the perfect temperature, and every dish was exceptional—from the tuna tartare and freshly baked artisan bread to the steak salad, asparagus, and mushrooms. Everything was so delicious, and the portions were so generous that we ended up taking some home. The staff also helped us capture beautiful photos that will become treasured memories for years to come. Parking was incredibly convenient—just a short two-minute walk, and no parking fee was needed. From the attentive service to the professionalism of our waiter, every detail was flawless. Thank you for making our 20th anniversary so special and memorable.

We had such a great dinner at South of Nick’s! The food was outstanding, the service was excellent, and the ambience really stood out — there was such a great vibe. We’d definitely go back!
