    I hit this spot up specifically for a Wing Walk. The Smoked Buffalo Wings were a standout. They aren't your average deep fried wing; they have a distinct, deep smoky depth. Even in the middle of a busy event, they stayed impressively crispy. The Asian Sticky Wings were also top tier. They had a thick, glossy glaze that hit the perfect balance of sweet and savory without being overly salty. Both wings were high quality and meaty, which isn't always the case during a crowded food crawl. I'd def stop by again under a diff circumstance to see the rooftop and maybe try their brunch.

    LOUISIANA CREOLE SHRIMP  creole spiced shrimp, lemon, special dunking sauce, served with fried bread

    Stopped by for lunch and realized it's been about a year since we last dined at The Freebird Kitchen and Bar. Glad we came back. We ordered the Louisiana Creole Shrimp and a Shrimp Po-Boy with bacon added. The Creole shrimp was amazing. Perfectly spiced, with a nice kick, and the lemon and special dunking sauce really pulled it together. The fried bread on the side was great for soaking up every bit of sauce. Honestly, it was pretty close to the shrimp I've had in New Orleans. The Shrimp Po-Boy was just as good. Crispy fried shrimp, fresh lettuce and tomato, and a flavorful Cajun remoulade on French bread. Adding bacon was the right move. It gave the sandwich a little extra richness without overpowering the shrimp. Overall, a solid lunch and definitely worth coming back for. We'll be dining here again in the near future. Four stars.

    Oh my God, you gotta go to this place. Susie is nice, pleasant and entertaining. Food is pretty good too nice long bar. They also have Sunday bottomless mimosas for two hours.

    Had visited Freebird with some friends. We had called ahead and made a reservation. We ordered a bunch of appetizers to share and some drinks as we met up with friends and caught up. The apps were all good we had some corn bread, chicken wings, and brisket fries. We ordered drinks and I enjoyed my espresso martini! The apps were really good and enough to share amongst our group.

    We stopped by on a weekday afternoon that everyone happened to be off from work/school so it wasn't cray busy. The bartender doubled as server at this time and he was as attentive as he could be. There are busses to bring the dishes, and I appreciate that a manager was on the floor, checking in on tables and helping out where he could. The last and only time I've ever visited this place since it changed from Elements (7 years ago), was not the best experience. A lot of the food was either bland or served cold. I was not happy. Fast-forward to today and I'm very happy with the turnaround. The oysters were flavorful and I see that they decided to put the flavored butter on the oysters instead of serving it on the side - huge improvement. Everyone enjoyed their food as well. All of it was really good and well done. Hubby had their steak sando and it was very flavorful, although difficult to get a bite without dragging more meat than you have mouth, off of the sandwich. My kiddo had the kid's menu cheeseburger, and it's a big portion. I asked for medium and it was done a little over, which I hope is a one-off, because not all kids are given well done burgers. I would never do my daughter dirty like that. Freebird staff, please believe the parents when they ask for medium - that's what their kids actually eat. I had the shrimp po'boy and I was quite happy with the dish. It was very good. I paired mine with a salad but I was intrigued to hear that mashed could have been an option. I tried both their aperol spritz and French Kiss cocktails, and both were nice...weak, but nice. We also shared the double chocolate brownie that was served warm with ice cream. We had to wait some during the meal but not much. We visited during an off-peak time, so it makes sense to gave less staff. We stayed until happy hour started, when additional staff began to arrive. Mostly, I'm happy that the food has improved greatly. If it was just hubby and I, we would have sat at the bar, so that is what I suggest whenever it's off-peak. It's just easier to get what you need with the bartender right there.

    Brussels - not particularly crispy but very good

    My friends and I ordered delivery. We really enjoyed our juicy Nashville hot fried chicken and fried cauliflower. I honestly would eat the cauliflower dish everyday. I thought the ribs were also good, just not as standout. I'd definitely order from this spot again. I was very impressed, even with the delivery drive.

    Mac n Cheese

    I came here the other day for lunch with my mom and sister. It wasn't my first time here but it's definitely been a while and as soon as we got here I remembered why.The staff is just not welcoming. From the hostess, to the bartender, to our waiter; not one person seemed happy to be there or to see us. However, I digress because I've been learning to let things go. The saving grace was that the food was actually fantastic. I don't have a single complaint about the food. We shared the Mac and cheese and biscuit with gravy. My mom had the chicken and waffles and I had the eggs Benedict with crab cakes. Will I be back? Maybe, but it definitely wouldn't be for the vibes.

    watermelon margarita

    Way better experience this time than I had last year. I came for brunch and it was very quiet. Super cute on the rooftop and I got greeted as soon as I walked in versus not at all which was my biggest complaint on my visit last year. Prices were great and good portions. Drinks were still in plastic cups but the watermelon margarita was soo good it didn't matter what type of cup it was in. Great time!

    Very loud from the music and the people's voices. Food was ok. Service was good enough.

    On 10/2/25, I ordered the Cubano sandwich and the Mac & Cheese via Ubereats. The pictures the restaurant posted on Instagram of the Mac & Cheese looked delicious and cheesy. What I received looked like Kraft Mac & cheese. Nothing like the pictures and tasted BLAH. The Cubano tasted primarily like mustard and a tiny portion of pork. Dinner ruined.

    Really nice time to be had live music New Orleans inspired great Sugar grits lots of seafood options. Nice bartender plenty of parking service was nice with a smile if you like life music come by on a Friday its well worth it.

Portions were huge, so we took plenty home for our group of three adults and a toddler. Everything was slightly spicy, super crispy, and absolutely delicious. A small but much-appreciated touch: they brought our 2-year-old ice water with a lid without us even asking. The warm sweet potato cornbread muffins were amazing--we liked them so much we ordered some to take home. We'll definitely be back!

    I had never actually been to Southern Table, I had only ever had takeout from there once or twice,…read morebut I have been wanting to try it for ages and I have to say it was worth the wait. We went on Easter for brunch, which we decided to do last minute and they let us know they could squeeze us in. We sat on the screened in patio. They were massively busy, but the staff was on their toes, checking in, taking away empty plates, being very kind (even though they were clearly crazy with how busy they were). We started with the Brie stuff pretzels. They were more like pretzel sandwiches (pretzel sticks cut in half with Brie in between), but were really tasty. It was all so good, I kept forgetting to take pictures until after we had already dug in. The pretzel app came with 4 pretzel/brie sandwiches. We also got the spinach an artichoke dip. It came with a nice amount of chips (hate when they give you too few and then you're just left with gobs of dip and nothing for it). It also came with salsa and sour cream, which seemed odd, but was nice for the extra chips and also family friendly if the dip didn't appeal to kids. The dip itself was really nice, it didn't taste as rich as spinach and artichoke dips often are. I could really taste the spinach, but in a good way. Usually dips like that make me feel overly full and are so heavy, this was a refreshing take on it. We got the Dutch baby pancake, the kids Mac and cheese, the pimento cheese and ham omelet (which I got scrambled), chicken and waffles, and the hot honey chicken. Overall, the food was delicious. The flavors all had depth and were really satisfying. We came home with lots of leftovers and we were all very happy when the meal was done. We will definitely be going back.

    This review is based on multiple takeout visits, along with dining in with friends:…read more Southern Table delivers something that feels just a step above the usual comfort food experience. It takes familiar dishes and presents them with a bit more care and a bit more intention. You taste that difference almost immediately. The food doesn't just satisfy; it reassures you that it was made thoughtfully. Of course, that level of care comes with a price, and you feel it. But in most cases, the quality justifies the cost. You may hesitate when ordering, but not when eating. The undeniable centerpiece is the Bulleit Burger. It's rich, balanced, and memorable in a way that lingers beyond the meal. If you're ordering from Southern Table, it feels less like an option and more like an obligation. Most of my experiences have been through takeout, which has held up well. Still, dining in offers its own appeal. The space is large and comes with an easy, welcoming energy that works well for a casual night out. Highlights: * Bulleit Burger * Elevated presentation and ingredient quality * Consistent execution across visits Lowlights: * Pricing is on the higher side

Again, look for juice in that photo, you won't find it. - Cole Slaw was colorful and crisp but fairly bland. Semi sweet ISH would be the closest flavor profile I could find up with. - Homemade Pickles were actually good, but sadly they weren't enough to save this meal.
