Fantastic food, shrimp and grits were perfect, fried green tomatoes with corn relish were also top notch. My wife highly recommends the mushroom soup as well as the Bibb & Arugula Salad. Our server, “Heather” was absolutely the best. Can't wait to come and try the fried oysters that were recommended, and hopefully have room for dessert.
New South is a restaurant that is always and I mean always outstanding. I was with three friends that had never eaten there and they say they can't wait to come back. The food, the service are always top notch.
Our server was great! (Heather I think?) food was excellent- shrimp and grits and grain bowl were so good. She gave good wine recommendations too

New South Kitchen & Bar offers a varied menu with many delicious options. The restaurant serves great drinks and has a selection of wine. The food is excellent, with dishes like fried green tomatoes and shrimp & grits being particularly noteworthy. Many customers have praised the shrimp & grits for being the tastiest ever, although there have been some concerns about the size of the bacon chunks and the shrimp being tough. The halibut special entrée was cooked to perfection and highly enjoyed, while the pork chop with cornbread stuffing and cherry glaze was also a hit. Desserts such as peach tart and lemon blackberry cheesecake are highly recommended, described as absolutely phenomenal.
The restaurant also features excellent deviled eggs and trout, though some items like pot roast and succotash are more about personal preference, with some finding the gravy too sweet and lacking a salty flavor. The Paloma cocktail is described as delicious and different, while the bartender can deliver a creamier espresso martini if requested. The blueberry dessert is another highlight.
Service is friendly and attentive, with servers like Nelie and Dori receiving praise for their excellent hospitality. Customers have noted Dori's kindness and patience, even when faced with difficult situations. New South Kitchen & Bar is considered a hidden gem, with staple dishes being reliably good and specials always offering a great surprise. When an old dish is missed, it is often replaced with something just as good or better. The restaurant is seen as a perfect spot for date night or a casual dinner, and it comes highly recommended for any occasion.
