There were a couple of Apps ordered for the table and both were very good. We had the Whipper Formaggio and the Spicy Shrimp Crunch. Really liked the shrimp, but I didn't find it spicy at all. There were a number of good options for the main. A number of people got the Lemon Miso Salmon and everyone thought it was good. I was leaning to the Braised Short Ribs but pivoted to the Roasted Pappardelle Pasta. The fresh pasta was excellent. The tomato cream sauce worked great with the shrimp and chorizo. This was a very cool place and there is little doubt that I will return.

I parked in the garage at the red deck which is $24, however, bring your ticket because they validate it. I ended up paying $15 instead. When we arrived, there was a violinist playing r&b songs.

Their dinner menu doesn't start until 5:00 PM. Anyway my meal was delicious! I will be back to order my own eggs & short ribs because that was good too! Everyone enjoyed their meal and this restaurant!

The burger was ordered and cooked medium. The fries were hot and crispy outside and soft inside. Shrimp and grits - I didn't taste but my guest enjoyed the dish. They said they'd order the dish again. Shore leave - a great cocktail. A great pour that was well balanced. I only wished for a bit more foam. My guest just moved here and said they'd add 5 Church to their lost of "go-tos" based off that first experience. The server was awesome (shame on me for forgetting his name).

So I made my way to the hotel where my staff was staying, and we were seated at the restaurant inside. I flipped over the menu and saw "Hartley Kitchen & Cocktails." I was instantly excited.

In kinda an older building, the place really had local charm, in an upscale setting. Kinda gave me a New Orleans vibe. I went right to the fried chicken since that what they are known for. Normally that comes with collard greens, and mashed potatoes, yet I subbed out the potatoes for grits. It came with a deboned breast, and a large wing. PERFECT crust, and the meat was so steamy tender and perfectly cooked. Really top notch fried chicken. Collards were great, and so were the grits. I'm salivating now just remembering it. Also served with 2 cornbread muffins that helped soak up some of the collard jus. All served with very respectful service. I can't wait to go back.

We were seated right away in one of the booths. For starters, we shared the brussel sprouts that literally came out within 5 minutes of ordering. I got the smash burger served with two patties and melted cheese but I subbed for sweet potato fries ($2 extra). It was a good burger though I wish the patties were more smashed for the crispness. My husband got the roasted chicken but it was really just thinly sliced chicken breast with a heaping amount of mashed potatoes and chicken jus. We thought their food was pretty good and a nice little gastropub to have in the area. Service was decent. They do offer complimentary valet parking! We didn't have cash on hand but the staff did have Venmo lol.

(One star only because zero isn't an option)…read more Our experience at Southern Gentleman in Buckhead was one of the worst dining experiences I've had in years. The only positive part of the afternoon was being seated a few minutes before our reservation time. After that, everything went downhill. We waited approximately 10 minutes just to receive water, and then another 15 minutes before our server returned to take care of our table. Once we placed our order, the server had to return three separate times to verify what she had written down. We ordered two simple cocktails, yet one arrived as a shot instead of the drink ordered. We sent it back, only to watch the server bring the same drink back out and deliver it to the table behind us. After sitting there for roughly ten minutes, that family correctly informed the server it wasn't theirs. Rather than having a fresh drink prepared, the server simply picked it up, walked around the corner, and attempted to bring the exact same drink back to our table. At that point, we took the drink directly to the bar and requested that it be remade. The food itself was average at best. The mac and cheese was the only item that stood out in a positive way. Unfortunately, we weren't the only table experiencing problems. All three tables surrounding us appeared to be dealing with significant service issues of their own. A restaurant called "Southern Gentleman" should embody hospitality, professionalism, and attention to detail. Our experience reflected none of those qualities. If you value your time, money, and family dining experience, I would strongly recommend choosing another restaurant in Buckhead. This establishment completely ruined what was supposed to be a pleasant Father's Day dinner.

Very good table service made extra points with making a birthday a special one. Music is good and at a volume level where conversation remains the primary focus. For me, this is a special occasion only spot, b/c the prices are a bit steep (especially since their sushi, oysters, and lobster roll are more expensive than they are in Boston). I think the logistics of getting fresh seafood makes it more expensive in Atlanta for certain selections? I'll give them the benefit of the doubt on that one. Also would have appreciated an oyster being taken off the bill when I informed the server it was a bad one. All in all ok, knowing that's a known risk with eating them.

On a cold afternoon, I finally decided to give it a shot, and I'm glad I did. I ordered the 50/50 burger and a Caesar salad. The burger is essentially a smash-style setup with onions, bacon, two patties, and cheese. I was genuinely impressed. I didn't put it down once I started. After that, we shared an 8-inch Margherita pizza, which was the perfect size to split without feeling overstuffed. I washed it all down with their house-made lemonade, which was so good a refill felt mandatory. The service was friendly and quick. The dimly lit dining room sets a cozy tone, yet you can still catch the game on one of the many TVs. Everything felt organized and well run. I'll definitely be back. .
