12 Best Southern Restaurants near Chelsea

“Great menu. Have enjoyed everything I’ve tried there. Excellent service today by Thomas!“

“Great service and food is always good.“

“I had to leave a review after stopping in for lunch and having the best customer service. Employees opened the door, checked on us outside, offered to get refills, cleared plates and handled a parking issue all with smiles. Good service is so hard to find so kudos to the team and leaders!“

“The Baby Bleu salad is hands down the best salad on their menu. A sweet dressing, citrus from the oranges, creamy tangy from the cheese, sweet crunch from the sugared almonds…. Phew! Perfect balance!!! And the little sour cream biscuits are always moist!!“

“What a surprise find! It’s a hidden gem, tucked in the back of the building it’s in, worth the hunt! Inside and outside seating, lots of outdoor activity stations for kids to play. Menu is Southern cooking with something for everyone—burgers, vegetables, seafood, steak—and great sides of fried okra, onion rings, Mac & cheese just to name a few of them. Staff is very friendly and there’s a homey feel in their rapport with the customers and each other. Very welcoming! Inside seating is pretty limited (it’s decorated so cute), plenty of covered outdoor seating with fans.“

“I love the deviled eggs and the muffins! Of course the BBQ is delicious but the Pies are a must try! The staff is very prompt and courteous. I use curbside to pick up dinner and it’s convenient especially with all the traffic on 280.“

“I work for The Dinner Detective and this venue hosts us 2-4 times a month. I cannot brag on the staff enough! From Todd at the door knowing each one of us and doing anything he can to help, to the front desk staff willing to print things for us or locate someone if we need them, to Bill always smiling and being friendly. But the real MVP’s are Jarvis and Damien with the staff that serves the meals and makes sure our guests receive the best experience during dinner. Damien is always there and works so hard. He knows his stuff and makes sure we have everything we need. Jarvis is so friendly and helpful. He has been so patient and dedicated as we have worked in this new partnership and has helped us troubleshoot and work through things all with a smile on his face. Without Damien and Jarvis, we would have been in a mess a few different times. They are amazing! ❤️❤️❤️❤️“

“Love this place! Came in for breakfast while in town and had a wonderful experience. My waitress was Anna and she was very attentive and knowledgeable of the menu and very friendly! Will be back again!!“

“Love the food, however, on multiple occasions when I get a quick chick on my lunch break I’m only given 4 packs of crackers and I’m not sure how I’m supposed to be satisfied with that as a meal, so the rest of work I’m just starving. Not all the workers are stingy with the crackers, I just don’t know why anyone would think that was enough crackers to give someone“

“Highly recommended it was wonderful. We always make sure we stop by when we pass. One of my favorite restaurants!!“

“Gotta say a big thank you to Jim ‘n Nick’s BBQ in Athens, GA. I drove through there, hoping to get the awesome sounding baked potato that is described on their menu. After ordering my kiddo’s chicken fingers, I asked for the potato only to be told they had run out of them for the night. 😞 when I pulled up to pick up our food,  the chef (Matt) had found out that I had really wanted a potato and so he gave me one for free. That makes potato might’ve been part of his employee meal he was taking home. I don’t know but that gentleman made my night.  by the way, the potato is very good, but the service was even better!“

“Breakfast always good and prompt. Coffee is hot and plentiful. Service is 5 star. Highly recommend Rebecca Whitmire!“
