23 Best Southern Restaurants near Buford

“Omg! Every time I’m here I love it more! Absolutely the BEST food, service, people. It’s all 10 stars! I used Suthern Cluck to cater a meal for 48 people (my son’s theater group) and it was raved about for weeks! They are the best at all they do and they do it with a superior execution! Chef’s kiss! 😘“

“Aqua Terra never fails to wow! We eat there often, but they really went above and beyond to make our son's rehearsal dinner perfect in every way. We could not have been more pleased with every aspect of the evening. Kelsea coordinated seemlessly with me every step of the way via e-mail. There is a significant food allergy concern with our daughter-in-law and she made sure that had been communicated well in advance to every member of the team. The downstairs room was set up exactly as expected with thoughtfulness and attention to detail. Our two servers were outstanding from the moment we arrived to decorate until the last of us left the building at the end of a wonderful night.The food, of course, was delicious from appetizers to main courses to desserts. Everyone raved about the entire evening! I highly recommend Aqua Terra for any meal you can enjoy there, but truly, they put this special night for the bride and groom over the top!“

Absolutely loved the authentic American breakfast vibe here! The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, perfect for a relaxed morning.
