Food was excellent in so many ways. the chicken was tender and awesome. The gumbo was the best I’ve had in a long time. Van and Abril

Best fried chicken! This is a restaurant that is very faithful to the basics. Not only Chicken itself is so fresh but also the way they cook is so tasty. Crispy and savory on the outside and soft and juicy on the inside. I had Gumbo and pecan pie too. Shrimp and sausages in the gumbo are cooked so well. Very busy on weekend. Now they open at 3pm-9pm since they are short of people.

Don't go if you're going to count calories! great fried chicken and biscuit tasted more like dessert. only thing that was so-so was the banana pudding. Not a lot of banana flavor. will definitely go again. And super friendly staff

Great food and incredible service! Maybe the best fried chicken ever!

. Their fried chicken is particularly good, as is their cake-like cornbread. It is also fun to order some random sides and share those each time.

Bring your appetite because this place is totally legit, best down south cooking I've ever had since leaving Louisiana. The portions are huge, the smoked brisket was delicious, the ribs were falling off the bone tender, and the chicken was crisp and tasty. I don't like driving downtown, but this place is easy to get to from the freeway and I will definitely be back.

You can't go wrong with anything at South. My favorite is the fried chicken, mashed potatoes, and their biscuit. Also really love the shrimp and cheesy grits. I grew up in the south and this food brings back all those wonderful food memories.

Delicious southern food. Great service.

Flavors were not there. Ordered the Catfish and the seasoned breading was just not there and the red beans and rice were brand tasting. Mac n cheese flavor was just not there either. Not a good experience and definitely won't be returning. No photos of food, was not photo worthy. Service was good though, but that's all.

3rd attempt at this place because they have good reviews. I just don't see the hype. I have tried 3 different types of dishes and the seasoning aren't there, the food does not WOW me and parking is horrible. The prices are seriously high for the amount of food they give. Also the glass water jugs aren't even cold. Wait I take that back... I ordered chicken tenders for the kids and those were good and was quite a few pieces for the price.

I ordered the Catfish entree which comes with Red Beans & Rice. The batter of the catfish was off, but edible. I can't have rice so I got a double order of Beans which were really good.I added an order of Kale greens & cornbread, the greens were flavorless but texture was good. The cornbread was tasty.The ambiance was chill, good music indoors, or you can sit outside for quiet & nature. Overall it was worth a try & I would come back

Ready for some fried chicken, a little shrimp with cheese grits in a creole sauce, salmon with red pepper sauce, yummy mashed potatoes or smoked brisket then head over to South for a dining experience!

This place is in a great location, has friendly staff, and delicious looking presentation, however the food was not as good as it looked. The red beans were bland, the shrimp and grits were over seasond, and I REALLY wanted to love the biscuits?, but they had a thick sugary coating on top that ruined them for me. On a positive note my friend ordered the Shrimp Po-boy, it looked really tasty, and she really enjoyed it.Disclaimer: ?I'm from Louisiana therefore really had to impress when it come to southern style cooking.

My trading experience with Mr Donald Richard has been really great and profitable.
